1. | 1. | Green Bay Packers | 2-0 | Woodson's 2 picks and fumble recovery helped overcome a sluggish start in Charlotte. Loss of Collins from already shaky pass defense is a blow. |
2. | 2. | New England Patriots | 2-0 | Brady's 940 passing yards are the most ever by an NFL QB after 2 weeks. The 2nd most in any 2 game span to Simms' 945. Another unanimous MVP is clearly not out of the question. |
3. | 4. | New York Jets | 2-0 | Dominant defense. Just enough offense. Same old, same old. |
4. | 5. | New Orleans Saints | 1-1 | Breesus has yet to be picked off after throwing 22 interceptions last season. |
5. | 9. | Houston Texans | 2-0 | Overcame Foster aggravating his hamstring injury (unlike most of his fantasy teams). |
6. | 10. | Atlanta Falcons | 1-1 | Burner Turner is back averaging 6.9 yards per carry. |
7. | 3. | Philadelphia Eagles | 1-1 | Insert literary joke here about offense undergoing a metamorphosis with Kafka. |
8. | 6. | Baltimore Ravens | 1-1 | Suffered a major letdown in Tennessee. |
9. | 7. | San Diego Chargers | 1-1 | Failed to score 3 times in the red zone. Is it time to start questioning Rivers despite the gaudy numbers? |
10. | 11. | Pittsburgh Steelers | 1-1 | Jackson helped make the defense look young again. Hopefully Collins can do the same on Sunday night. |
11. | 12. | Detriot Lions | 2-0 | Haven't lost since December 5th. |
12. | 8. | Chicago Bears | 1-1 | Offensive line is in shambles which is an even bigger problem because of Cutler�s lack of escape ability. |
13. | 15. | Tampa Bay Buccaneers | 1-1 | Overcame a 17 point halftime deficit on the road. |
14. | 16. | Buffalo Bills | 2-0 | Free agent to be Fitzpatrick is making himself some money. |
15. | 17. | Washington Redskins | 2-0 | Already won as many games at home this year as last year. |
16. | 18. | Dallas Cowboys | 1-1 | Saved their season in OT in SF. Romo played better with a broken rib and punctured lung. |
17. | 19. | New York Giants | 1-1 | Ailing secondary aided greatly by pass rush against Bradford. Need more of the same against either Kafka or VY with Vick unlikely to play. |
18. | 13. | Arizona Cardinals | 1-1 | Ran out of gas late in Washington as often happens when they travel to the east coast. |
19. | 14. | Oakland Raiders | 1-1 | Schedule makers did them no favors with an early game in the eastern time zone on a short work week after a Monday night road game. |
20. | 28. | Tennessee Titans | 1-1 | Hasselbeck and Britt were impressive in shocking win over the Ravens as they wait for Johnson to round into form. |
21. | 20. | St. Louis Rams | 0-2 | Off to an 0-2 start for the 5th consecutive season. |
22. | 22. | San Fransisco 49ers | 1-1 | Blew a 10 point 4th quarter lead at home. |
23. | 29. | Cleveland Browns | 1-1 | Hillis has avoided the Madden jinx (so far). |
24. | 23. | Jacksonville Jaguars | 1-1 | McCown was benched for Gabbert after throwing 4 interceptions. Why was McCown starting in the first place? |
25. | 30. | Denver Broncos | 1-1 | Moreno may have difficulty regaining his job from McGahee when he returns from injury. |
26. | 25. | Miami Dolphins | 0-2 | Lost their 6th straight home game and 11th of their last 12. |
27. | 27. | Cincinnati Bengals | 1-1 | Dalton and Green give them hope for the future despite the loss. |
28. | 24. | Minnesota Vikings | 0-2 | Frazier has given McNabb a vote of confidence. The rest of the NFC North rejoices. |
29. | 31. | Carolina Panthers | 0-2 | Newton accounted for 485 total yards including 432 passing yards, but 3 interceptions did him in. Newton topping 400 yards passing in the first 2 weeks even with the interceptions is impressive. He is now responsible for 2 of the 4 games in NFL history in which a rookie has thrown for over 400 yards. |
30. | 26. | Indianapolis Colts | 0-2 | Manning was as important as everyone thought, maybe more important. |
31. | 21. | Kansas City Chiefs | 0-2 | Outscored 89 to 10 so far this season. Losing Charles to a torn ACL after slipping on the down marker just before colliding with Lions mascot adds injury to insult. |
32. | 32. | Seattle Seahawks | 0-2 | Will have to work hard to procure Luck given the meltdowns in Indy and KC. Definitely have the lack of talent to make it happen. |
