    The fugly: Rams

    Not a surprise that they are bad, but surprised that they are really, really, bad -- not competitive at all. 0-16 should be a lock.

    Imo, the Broncos are the biggest surprise. They were written off by everyone before the season started.

    I'm not saying they are a super bowl team but they are playing some good ball right now.

    You're surprised by the Vikings? Before the beginning of the season I was thinking 11-5 minimum. Now, who knows????

    I collect Vintage Cards, Commemorative Sets, and way too many vintage and modern player collections in Baseball (180 players), Football (175 players), and Basketball (87 players). Also have a Dallas Cowboy team collection.

    Bengals and Broncos. Minnesota is not a surprise at all. I think Minnesota and the Giants are gearing up for a showdown in the NFC title game. If Favre and Peterson are healthy they can win the Super Bowl. Jarred Allen is also a man on a search and destroy mission.image

    My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

    I don't see the Broncos success as a huge surprise. Its a strong franchise and they play .500 ball in a down year. Simply put, I always expect them to be above average..

    The biggest surprise to me, hands down, is the Titans. Does anyone even remember last year's Titans? What happened? Before the season, Vegas had their odds to win the super bowl at only slightly worse than the Giants or Colts. The fact that they are winless at this point is unbelievable.... Next surprises would be Bengals and maybe the fact that the Falcons look to be a legit NFC contender. I'll admit I thought last year's Falcons were a fluke before the season began. Not anymore.

    Man I'm so glad we in KC got rid of Jared Allen - what a nuisance he was!

    Dude just might have more TDs AND yards than LJ image

    One thing I agree with whole heartily is that Jared Allen is AWESOME. bet KC wished they still had him....
