Re: Who's surprised you so far?
Biggest surprise on our team for me -- Armstrong. Second in the league in sacks. No one would have put him in the same league as Watt, Hutchinson, Crosby, Hendrickson or Garrett, but his numbers this year are impressive. And of the top 20 in sacks, he has the second most tackles. And he's second in tackles for a loss. He's been lights out.
Relatedly, I am surprised that we don't miss last year's sack leader -- Fowler. Armstrong, Wagner and Miller each have more sacks than he does, and he's tied with Payne, Martin, Luvu, Jean-Baptiste, and Newton.
Biggest surprise in the league for me -- a tie between the Ravens falling apart (albeit with everyone injured) and the 49ers somehow getting to 4-1 with everyone injured. Shanahan is doing an amazing coaching job in SF.
