DrugS' NFL knowledge spans about one player, so I'd ask someone else.

Bears are ok, but not better then GB

Atl how are they better then expected? They were chalk on road Week 1 and lost.

KC is going in the right direction long term. TONS TONS TONS OF YOUNG TALENT.

Miami is a well run organization, they have been solid past 2 years in a tough division.

Texans.... Tough one. Im not sold.

You'd be a lot better served asking someone else.

But, here's my takes:

Bears: They're a house of cards waiting to collapse. Third best team in the division.

Atlanta: They are like the Patriots in terms of having an offense that runs a hell of a lot smoother at home than on the road.

Kansas City: The Chargers team they beat totally quit once it started raining - and they did have a nice win over the improved Cleveland Clowns - but the Clownies shot themselves in the foot as much as usual in that game. When Matt Cassell is your QB - you're going nowhere. He blows beyond belief.

Fins: Good team on both sides of the ball.

Texans: Good offense. A team that has a history of giving games away after impressive wins - they stole one from the Skins last week.

Cassell went 11-5 for the Pats - but he has a spaghetti noodle for an arm and he holds onto the ball forever.

Trust me - he is a total fraud. He had 61 yards passing in game #1. And in game #2 - against the Browns - he throw zero TD's and 2 INT's and the Browns defense gave up nothing to the chiefs.

The one Chiefs TD against the Browns came on an INT returned for a TD.

The first field goal that the Chiefs scored came on a fumble recovered deep in Cleveland territory and the Chiefs offense went 3 and out and made the field goal.

Cassell threw about 8 passes to the fullback in that game against the Browns. He either checks down right away or holds on way too long.

The guy was at USC for five years and never even sniffed the football field. He has no arm - but give him Wes Welker working on a lineback or Wes Welker working on a nickle guy - and Moss on the outside and he looked very good despite leading the NFL in sacks taken.
