What did you see in Week 1 from the Lions, @teeesskay? Is the team decently improved/holes filled or are the Colts just overrated?

Pats about to feast on the Dolphins with Gronk back. It's very possible that they will go 3-1 before Brady comes back. Some are talking 4-0 but Houston looks very decent this year so they might take on from us.

I was very impressed with Jacksonville and will try to watch their games. Their offense is lit.

I know it's only been 1 week, but my AFC preview is looking pretty damn good.

Patriots look like the best team in the league, and that's without Brady and Gronk. They were the only "contender" in my preview.

My next tier had the Bengals, Steelers, Broncos, and Chiefs. The steelers crushed the redskins, Bengals beat the Jets, the Broncos beat the reigning NFC champion, and the Chiefs beat a division rival.


My next tier had the Colts, Jaguars, Jets, and Bills. All four teams had very close losses to good teams except the Bills (but they had an injured starting quarterback and star receiver).


Of the trash tier, only the Ravens won. And that was a 6 point win over the aforementioned Bills.



This is a strong man right here

I have a real bad feeling about my Colts.. Our offense was rolling in 2nd half last week.. I am not worried about offense going forward barring major injuries. O-line is a concern but I think we overcame it against the Lions. Obviously won't hold up against the elite teams like Denver.

Defense is a HUGE issue as TSK mentioned. We have garbage pass rushing that cannot put pressure on the opposing QB, average secondary on paper but completely decimated by injuries. I fear what Denver o-line will do to us - easily going to create HUGE holes for Denver's running game. I so wish we had a Bob Sanders or someone to shut down the opposing running game.
