Week 3 and the Bengals may have the division locked up with Big Ben seemingly done.

Thursday night features the Vick-led Steelers against the Ravens coming off that nut-punch loss.

Has Suh really done anything all year? I haven't heard his name.

Steelers have a fighting chance if Roethlisberger is only out 8 weeks. It's not an easy schedule (everyone in the AFCN has a tough sked), but their remaining tough games are somewhat backloaded. They could go 5-2 the next 7 weeks with Vick.

It's true, though I think 8 weeks is optimistic for Big Ben at this point, and Vick last year looked like he had mailed in his career and was just collecting checks.

Not sure, why don't they ever run the ball? Philbin seems terrible this year.
 
Philbin has always been terrible. He's had playoff-level talent every year he's been there imo. This year he really should make the playoffs, but they look just awful.

The Niners looked good vs. Minnesota to open the season, have looked like the crap we expected since.

And how the Cardinals missed Palmer last year. They might have given the NFC a run for the money if they don't have that revolving QB last year (due to injuries but still).

I know they're playing the Section 8 Dolphins, but the Bills look really composed on offense. As a Pats fan, I'm glad that we caught them in their overly-jacked up Rex froth rather than playing at a normal equilibrium.

Not to mention Jim Harbaugh. Not to be mean, but the new coach sounds like the other extreme from Bill Belichick when he speaks.
Oh yeah that guy is going to be terrible

Kaep looks lost

Seattle is probably going to have to sweep Arizona this year to win the division, and I don't think I see that happening. Arizona is really good.

Did Solomon Wilcots just suggest that THE Tight End to have on your FF team was Charles Clay?

What day in October do the Patriots clinch the AFC East?
With Big Ben out, Bills may be Pats' top contenders in this conference.
