This year everyone seems to be beating Cincinnati. They didn't look great against the NYG either during their last win. Yeah they might turn it on but their defense is even worse than I remember. Too much pressure on that offense to score. Plus, a difficult division. [Reply]
about right for the top teams. Debate to be had about the bottom teams. Chargers are better than the Broncos. Raiders are more of a dumpster fire than the patriots but maybe not as bad as the browns. I'd probably put the Jags above the dolphins too. [Reply]
I don't understand how anyone ranks the cheating Donks higher than bottom 5. They have the worst starting quarterback in the AFC. The guy threw for -7 yards in a half, 22 in another half. He gets garbage time yards in the 4th quarter, but that doesn't mean much. And I'm not convinced that the defense is as good as advertised. They haven't played any decent offenses yet. [Reply]
