so then from what your saying is that brady wasn't THAT good, that anyone can line up under center and lead this team to 10 or 12 wins?
and their D is not that good!!!!!!!!!!!! but wait lap, did you see how good that D was and how they stepped up against kc and the nyj? and just wait to you see how good they play against that offensive machine in miami.
What I got in order...
Indy
Pitt
Tenn
SD
NE
Den
Buff
top 7 (Buff probably isn't as good as the other 6 bur their schedule is nice and they are very well coached)
Might have Den too low there but I don't wanna jump the gun on them. Checkout Tennessee's schedule people, they could easily go into that MNF game with Indy at 5-1 or 6-0. Should be interesting, they would pose a tough match up for Indy because of their line play...

no brady IS that good and IMO is worth MORE THAN a TD a game which is what vegas basically put his worth at...
what i believe is we are NOT gonna see what we saw last year (ie: Pats 48 also rans 17)...
what we are gonna see is a lot of Patriots 21 Opponents 17 which is what we have seen in their 2 wins this year....
and yes i believe you can put anyone who knows the offense (which is very complicated) behind center and with their schedule YES they will win 11-13games....thats why they kept cassel and didnt go after someone off the street bc he knows the complicated offense...their schedule will enable them to have the best or 2nd best record in the AFC this year...

NOT A CHANCE IN HELL THEY WIN 13 GAMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND DON'T FOOL YOURSELF ABOUT A COMPLICATED OFFENSE. BRADY GOT ALL DAY TO PASS AND HE HIT OPEN RECIEVERS, THEN IN THE ONE GAME HE GOT PRESSURE THEY LOST.
CASSELL WILL FOLD WHEN THE PRESSURE COMES, BELLADICK ALMOST GOT RID OF HIM IN THE PRESEASON.
Top 5 in the AFC are:
1. Indy
2. NE
3. SD
4. Tenn
5. Pitt
I'm as big of a Broncos fan as you'll find, but they aren't a top 5 team until the defense shows it can stop someone. Once they play the better teams that shit won't fly. They can't score 40 pts a week the whole season, that just doesn't happen (unless you're the 07 Pats).
As Hines pointed out, you guys are overreacting to three weeks. You can't just put all the 3-0 teams at the top. Indy still has the most talent, NE is right behind them. The Bills haven't really beaten a top team, and could EASILY be 1-2 right now. Tennessee has played three teams with a combined record of 1-7 right now. Put them up against Indy, NE or SD and I'd make any of them at least a 4-7 point favorite. They do have the best defense, but not sold on their offense at all.
Buffalo and Denver are pretenders imo at this point. Beat a couple of good teams with an impressive outing and I'll be impressed. Close wins against average/below average teams means nothing to me except that they got a favorable schedule to start the year. Denver beat a good team, but LT was hurt and Denver needed a little help from Ed to get the win. Bad calls are part of the game, but they should win that game at home, and in reality they deserved to lose.
