Rnk | LW* | Team | Record | Comments |
1. | 1. | Green Bay Packers | 2-0 | Rodgers makes the game look easy regardless of opponent. |
2. | 2. | New England Patriots | 2-0 | Current success built entirely on offensive talent, Belichick's reputation as a defensive mastermind notwithstanding. |
3. | 3. | Arizona Cardinals | 2-0 | Rookie Johnson through 2 games already has a rushing, receiving and return TD. |
4. | 4. | Denver Broncos | 2-0 | Reports of Peyton's death appear premature. |
5. | 5. | Dallas Cowboys | 2-0 | Loss of Romo obviously a terrible setback. Weak division gives them hope. |
6. | 7. | Cincinnati Bengals | 2-0 | Ability to win regular season games never in question. |
7. | 10. | Pittsburgh Steelers | 1-1 | Roethlisberger, Brown and the offense can beat anybody. Getting Bell back next week makes them that much scarier. |
8. | 16. | Carolina Panthers | 2-0 | Newton keeps finding ways to win. A pity he doesn't have more skill position talent to utilize. |
9. | 19. | New York Jets | 2-0 | Defense has a franchise record 10 turnovers in the first 2 games, had only 13 turnovers all of last season. |
10. | 22. | Atlanta Falcons | 2-0 | Nice start for new head man Quinn. |
11. | 6. | Seattle Seahawks | 0-2 | Why trade for Graham if he isn't going to be part of the game plan? |
12. | 8. | Miami Dolphins | 1-1 | Continue to underachieve with Philbin. Already reportedly unhappy with Suh. |
13. | 11. | Buffalo Bills | 1-1 | Ryan's pregame bluster proved empty just like in Jersey. |
14. | 13. | San Diego Chargers | 1-1 | Rivers has completed over 80% of his passes so far this season. |
15. | 14. | Kansas City Chiefs | 1-1 | Couldn't overcome 5 turnovers against the Broncos. |
16. | 9. | Baltimore Ravens | 0-2 | Harbaugh starts a season with 2 losses for the first time in his career. Would expect them to win scoring 33 points in Oakland. Defense looked flat without Suggs. |
17. | 21. | Minnesota Vikings | 1-1 | Bridgewater rebounded at home after disappointing showing in San Francisco. |
18. | 12. | Indianapolis Colts | 0-2 | Last in the league in points with only 21 in 2 games. Luck caught in middle of Grigson/Pagano feud. |
19. | 15. | Philadelphia Eagles | 0-2 | Giving total control to Kelly appears to have been a horrible mistake. |
20. | 28. | Jacksonville Jaguars | 1-1 | Won in September for the first time since '12. |
21. | 20. | San Francisco 49ers | 1-1 | Trip east on a short work week ended up as should have been expected. |
22. | 29. | Oakland Raiders | 1-1 | Carr impressive in game winning drive against Ravens. |
23. | 31. | Washington Redskins | 1-1 | Rookie Jones had a coming out party. Gruden committed to ground and pound offense. |
24. | 17. | St. Louis Rams | 1-1 | Apparently celebrated win over Seahawks about 6 days too long. |
25. | 18. | Detriot Lions | 0-2 | Going nowhere with uninspiring Caldwell at the helm. |
26. | 30. | Tampa Bay Buccaneers | 1-1 | Talk of Winston being a bust after the opener proved a bit premature. |
27. | 23. | Houston Texans | 0-2 | O'Brien might have been better off staying at Penn St. |
28. | 32. | Cleveland Browns | 1-1 | Decision to return journeyman McCown to starting lineup over Manziel serves no purpose. |
29. | 26. | Tennessee Titans | 1-1 | Cancel Mariotta's Hall of Fame induction ceremony some were planning after the opener, at least for the time being. |
30. | 24. | New York Giants | 0-2 | Have given up 28 fourth quarter points so far this year. First team in league history to blow second half double digit leads in consecutive games to start a season. |
31. | 25. | New Orleans Saints | 0-2 | Need to start over. Next winning team will not include Brees. Payton seems to have quit caring. |
32. | 27. | Chicago Bears | 0-2 | Hung tough for a while until Cutler pick 6, injury trying to make tackle on return. How can an NFL team enter the '15 season with Claussen as their backup QB? |
