The Denver Broncos. A win is a win, no doubt. But they've needed last second field goals to squeak by the Bills and the Raiders (the Raiders at home no less), and yet a lot of people have them as a top 5-7 team. In fact, if I remember right, Terrell Davis called them the best 2-0 team last night on Total Access. Which is just ridiculous
Yeah, Denver has definitely lost something. It's probably because of Cutler, but other than that I can't see what has changed. Either way, they're absolutely not a top seven team. From what I've seen, I think Washington is better overall.

Dallas--agree with the comments about Green's TOs. Not impressed. I'm not saying we're better than them (I think we are--but that has to be proven on the field!), it's just that (as usual) the national media is on their jock.
Denver also bothers me--I really do not like that team. But they seem to win like this every year (for the past few), so maybe that's their style.
I think GB and Houston looked pretty good--given where they both were last year, I'm not sure their being overrated right now as much as people are surprised that they're winning at all.
Not impressed with SF--that division is very weak, IMO. We'll see.

In TD's defense, he called them the best 2-0 team that wasn't in the playoffs last year.
It's still nonsense, but...

yeah but trent green didnt throw 4 interceptions to us in their own territory. It wasn't like he was pressured he just made crappy throws. He gave them good field position every turnover. Its not like dallas put up numbers crushing them. Hell trent green had more passing yards then romo.
If you throw four interceptions, chances are the defense had something to do with more than one of them if not all. Dallas capitalized on the turnovers which is what good teams do. Bottom line is they went into Miami's house and beat them down, and we barely squeaked by with an overtime FG at home against the same team.

It wasn't like the Dallas D was super talented to get those picks. Those bitches dropped RIGHT into their arms.

Supertalented or not, the result was the same.

49er's. Alex Smith got a whole lot of props last year for making the step from god awful to mediocre. Well he is still mediocre at best and this is his third full season.

no dallas didnt have anything to do with them except for the one diving pick by henry. Otherwise green wasnt being pressured had open men just made terrible throws.

Yes, but I think that people are giving them a lot more credit than they deserve. Romo completes less than half his passes and Green is handing out great field position... bad combo.
