@Superman: I agree about the Texans. They def. are exorcising their demons this year, also their doing something else that is out of their character, which is running the ball more than previous years. You never expect Houston to be a running team, but if they get a consistent run game along with that explosive offense, NFL watch out! Their defense is improving as well, they have a lot of talent and skilled players on defense, pass rushers, linebackers, corners, special teams. I am a big fan of the Texans they are my second favorite team, I really hope this is their year to get the ultimate monkey off their back, making the postseason. It's still the Colts division to win, but it doesn't look like it will be a run away like the last couple of years, Titans too might make it interesting, you never know.
As for Vick, good for him. He gets another chance, albeit it's not against top competition, he gets to show off his long lost skills and not worry about being taken out, unless he does very poorly. Also, I hear multiple teams are already calling about Kevin Kolb, I doubt Philly does anything with that anyways. It's funny, they expect Kolb to have a breakout season now that they traded McNabb and what do they do, he goes down and he gets his starting position taken over. For how long? Well that will be the interesting question in the upcoming weeks.
The Jets, you don't know what your gonna get out of them. I feel the main reason they will not win a superbowl this year or any of the upcoming years is because Sanchez. I feel he holds them back, whether it's him or the OC playcalling, who knows. I just don't see Sanchez becoming nothing more than maybe a one or two time pro-bowler in his career (if at all). Now, maybe he will change my mind and if he does, I will gladly admit that I was wrong, as of now, well you just don't know.
The Cowboys struggles are just mind boggling, all the talent/depth talent in the world and they start 0-2. Will that trend break next week? I highly doubt it, the Texans are riding on a cloud of their own right now and I don't think their coming down anytime soon. Romo is going to need protection and a efficient running game to stay in this one. Also, I am looking forward to watching the Jets/Dolphins SNF game, that should be a barn burner. I'm impressed how solid Miami plays defense, they have alot of no name players you haven't heard much of besides Dansby, but do they get the job done or what!
It looks like the Steelers old defense has returned with the return of Troy, atleast based on the first two weeks. Causing turnovers, interceptions, field goals. All with a third string QB, now just imagine til Big Ben comes back, look out for Pittsburgh down the road.
Super excited for Week 3 to get here, I am looking forward to some fun and exciting matchups. Will the Vikes/Cowboys get out of their funk? Stay tuned.
