So far we know who the NFL's bottom shelf is (Cleveland, St. Louis, Tampa Bay, Buffalo, KC and Tennessee) and we're pretty sure of the elite teams (Saints, Giants, Vikings and Colts)and the 2nd tier who could be elite late in the year (New England Denver, Pittsburgh, Baltimore,Atlanta and Chicago). But what else have we learned?
- We've learned that Brett Favre is setting up Vikings fans for a massive letdown in January.
- Josh McDaniels knew what he was doing and that Kyle Orton is not just a caretaker.
-Tom Brady is just fine, and if you still don't believe that, go back and check how Peyton Manning's 2nd half was last year.
-Speaking of Peyton: no disrespect to Jim Caldwell, who I'm sure does contribute, but Manning is officially the coach of the Colts.
- Drew Brees is the most complete QB in the league in terms of mobility, poise, arm strength, and leadership
- That the Wildcat is a lot more complicated than just putting fast guys under center and running a screen pass; which is to say, the Dolphins are the only team that can truly pull it off.
- That the Niners are getting there, but they're not on the big boy level. I think they'll win the NFC West, get bounced in the Wild Card, but could make some serious noise in the next few years.
- There's a reason why Brady Quinn fall to 22nd in the draft. I couldn't have said it any better myself
- The Cowboys have gone from overrated to irrelevant very quickly.
- I'd say the Bengals are legit, but I want to see how much of an effect the loss of Antwan Odom has on their defense.
- Baltimore's suddenly mediocre secondary makes them beatable. Which is a shame, because I'd love to see what that team could do with both sides of the ball at full strength.
- Jason Campbell is apparently forever the victim of circumstance. I'd love to see how he'd look in a stable situation because it's never going to get any better for him in the District.
-Maybe, just maybe, the Eagles aren't Super Bowl material and I would've said that even prior to the Oakland fiasco.
