It's early in the season, so let's not make any conclusions. Teams currently doing well aren't guaranteed to make it to the Playoffs or even win the Super Bowl. Teams currently doing poorly aren't guaranteed to get the first overall Draft pick. Some winning teams may start choking and falling apart. Some losing teams may start getting hot and make themselves unlikely playoff contenders. You can't win the championship in October. So let's reserve some of our opinions until later this season.
Wow... every team in the NFC West has the same record. Philadelphia is the only undefeated team so far. Meanwhile, my pathetic Houston Texans still haven't won in the sorry AFC South. It is still too early for me to follow the equally brutal Houston Rockets in the NBA instead.
Okay. So here's some of the games slated for this week:
- IND Colts at DEN Broncos (THURSDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL)
- NYG Giants vs. GB Packers (to be played in England)
- CIN Bengals at BAL Ravens (SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL)
- LV Raiders at KC Chiefs (MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL)
Keep cheering on your favorite team(s). Enjoy this week's games!
