I think the Titans might be in that group too. Everyone is on their bandwagon this year and I just don't see it. I think it's headed into wall with the rest of these teams.

Someone has to win the AFC South, though.

Yea, but it could be like when Seattle won their division with a losing record at 7-9.

The NFL has been awful this year so far. A lot of bad bad football.

That's been the trend, though. With the CBA cutting down on practice times and whatnot, more teams are coming out of the gate rusty. If the quality of football is still this poor in Week 5, then I will concur.

It seems like a lot of the issues teams are having stem from not having a good O-line. I guess we should be thankful that only 1/2 of ours is bad.

The Bengals offense should not be as bad as it's looked the last 2 games. It's not like they don't have anyone to throw the ball to or a decent running back (though they need to pick one guy instead of this 3 RB crap they have going on)

problem is none of their running backs can get going because the d is in the backfield when the ball is handed off

I am glad I didn't pick Eifert, AJ Green or any of those RB's in my drafts

Right. The O-line is bad. I'm hoping they figure it out. I have Eifert in 1 league and Green in another.

and you have to start them, it's not like your going to bench aj green or a top 6 TE

He never should have even played last year. He's got financial security which is more important than further scrambling his brain

In the league I have Eifert, Johnson was my top RB. That blow would have hurt worse if I didn't have McCoy as well. I won the league the last 2 years, so this just may not be my year.

I'm hoping that it's just rust for the Bengals. They didn't look good week 1 and then the short turn around for the Thursday night game probably didn't do them any favors. Hoping the longer week now between games could be helpful.

Bills RB LeSean McCoy has groin soreness and will be rested during Friday's practice.

He's probably never going to be completely healthy. But he's supposed to be good to go.

Like I said, I won the last 2 years, so I'm due for a not so great season.

It's not like he got laid out last year and that was the problem. It was incidental contact and a complete freak accident.

Well, luckily we have an IR spot and Johnson may be back for the end of the season (mostly playoffs is what I'd hope for). So in the meantime I picked up a RB from Chicago that actually had a good week last week, plus I have Coleman (it's a PPR league) and Perkins from the Giants. Just need some of these teams to figure themselves out because there's been a LOT of sloppy football.

The Jags are going to surprise a lot of people this year

I would make them my Super Bowl wildcard pick if they had a good QB

I'm actually really happy with this news because now he's forced to quit instead of risking his life like he did last year in the playoffs
