Most suprising teams thus far?

Sains 2-0, they played lack luster teams but still are 2-0


Vikings 2-0, they have played some solid teams including a superbowl favorite in the panthers..

Ravens 2-0, they are scoring 27.5 points per game and allowing 3 points per game, they finally have a solid qb to manage the game..

Dolphins 0-2, They don't look good at all..



feel free to add anymore

    They started aaron brooks... Walter looked ok today, their offensive line is god awful, me and art shell could block better.
  • The Vikings by far, watching them play this year is so much differant than the past 4 years with Tice at the Helm. before, it was US doing the stupid stuff like Fox did on that punt return. The Defense is very solid, if they can get Brad johnson a little more protection from the right side it wouldnt hurt. Peppers as always, shows that he is THE best Outside Linebacker in the game. The longwell fake was a brilliant call, I was stumped WHY they were even trying a FG down by 7 and only about 7 minutes to play, then BAM! Mike Tice would NOT have made these decisions, not to mention Daunte.

    The Saints have beat 2 teams that they should have beat, I am not ready to give them props yet.

    The Ravens, yes. They are for real, and getting Mcnair was a great move. That D only needs 10 points to win a game.

    Dolphins, what can you say. DC is up to his old self.

  • agreed on the saints but a win is a win and counts the same in the standings, that being said they are 2-0 and in first place...


    Peppers is a defensive end isnt he?
  • It's not suprising to see teams like Oakland or Houston play like this - everyone with common sense knew they'd be bottom-feeding all season.

    I'm suprised about the anemic offense of Miami and Denver. I'm not suprised about the pitiful offense of TB.

    I don't understand how Kerry Colins is employed.
  • 0-2 Dolphins. A lot of talk about them being in the Super Bowl at the start of the season. Not sure what the problem is but they need to get their act together fast.

    0-2 Carolina. Maybe not so surprising without Steve Smith. Then desperately need him back in the lineup.
  • Well I guess technically he is a DE but the dude is everywhere, even on the Longwell to Owens play.

    my bad.

    I think that the number of points San Diego has been scoring is the most surprising to me. Being 2-0 is not that awesome considering the two teams they played but they sure are lighting up the scoreboard.

    A fair statement. What's different this year seems to be that they aren't losing to teams they should beat - something new for the Saints.

    MNF againstthe Falcons this week will be the real test.

    Carolina 0-2 has to be a big surprise. The Saints have always been good up front on D, and you knew they were going to be
    better on offense with a motivated Duece McAllister.

    San Diego has looked good, but have played two cream puffs the first two weeks. Im not sold until they can win on the road
    against a playoff team. If the Jags can beat the Steelers, you have to put them up with the elite. Grossman has been the
    biggest surprise in the NFC so far.

  • The Vikings took Grossman out for the year before, and will do it again next week. Plus I signed Him for the week on my fantasy team, so far this year I'm a jinx in that so....
