    Saint's have a better offense this year, and in the top 10 in defense. Vikings and Packers will be a good matchup. I think Minnesota will take it though.
    Setup:

    2 Channel: Vienna Acoustics Mozart Grand, T+A P 1230R, Primare SPA21, Oppo BDP-105
    PC: Vienna Acoustics Haydn Grand, Cambridge Azure 650A v2 , Peachtree iDAC, Denon DVD-3800BDCI

    Chicago Bears went to 2-1. Considering we're still a learning offense, and a few ?'s on the defense, I think we're doing well. We never give up on any play. :)

    And those teams would both be 2-1, had Chicago not beaten them.....

    Yes, they would be. Detroit would be 2-1 and SF 3-0 had Vikings not beat them. :)
    Point being, the season's too young to know who any team really is.

    Agree 100%
    I haven't been watching the Saints, have they found a defense yet? They've always had a good offense.....

    That remains to be seen. They did let Detroit score 27 points but I don't think Detroit is going to be an easy victory for any team this season.

    The Chargers are a paper tiger.

    Sooo hard to be a Chargers fan - they always find a way to 'play down' to their opponent. You never know which version of the Chargers will show up - invariably its the one that self-destructs.

    And "Dork" Turner - dude - mix up the play calling....running Sproles off tackle on EVERY first down kills your play selections for 2nd and 3rd downs.

    I'd put in Hester and Tolbert to pound the defense down, then 2nd half put in a fresh Sproles to fly by the gassed linemen.

    Steeler rematch on Sunday night......I predict a repeat.:(

    I think there is more talent in Detroit than most people think. I think Detroit's biggest problem this year is that it's a new squad and a young squad. They are getting beat by experience and nothing more. They have a solid team it seems and they know this year is a rebuilding year. But every game, they look better and better. If they can hold on to the talent, they are going to be an even more interesting team to watch next year!

    If I have to endure games like Cincy-Cleveland had today on a weekly basis, I will die of a heart attack by the end of the year. 27 and in great shape and the Bengals are going to kill me.

    The Vikings are for real! To be honest I must say they did look like they are hitting on 6 of 8 cylinders on offense, but after they work out a few more bugs and get Adrian Peterson off the short leash, I think The Vikings may just find themselves going to the Big Dance.

    Unfortunately Favre will be WELL out of steam by then so I wouldn't expect the Vikes to make it very far in the playoffs.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    Interesting the Broncos are 4-0...also waiting for the Cowboys to implode.
    If they don't make the playoffs, Wade Phillips is gone and Romo may be on the trading block. Nothing like the pressure of a new, 1 billion dollar stadium to play in.

    With all that said, Go Bears...

    I think Favre can easily get the team to the playoffs and into the Superbowl if they play their cards right. He still has a great arm, and an unrivaled understanding of the game and how to play it.

    With their amazing running game+Favre+their great defense...they easily have a legitimate shot.

    My poor Packers lost last night to them...I was REALLY impressed with Rodgers though! He had almost 400 yards passing and 2TD! The biggest thing is that he only lost the ball once (fumble) and was intercepted once. I'm not holding either of those against him though, since his offensive-line was absolutely terrible (mostly the left side).

    Rodgers really showed his character and stamina, pulling the Pack back into the game with just 2 minutes left. He continued to push even after having 9 (NINE!!!) sacks last night.

    Agreed, I was impressed with Rogers last night, even in a losing effort.
