I told y'all cats last year, the Bears coaching staff has 'fixed' Jay Cutler. He may be the best QB in the division this year (health permitting), and yes better than Aaron Rodgers.
The Patriots are a great team but they are benefitting from a watered down product.
The Cardinals despite the 2 losses are the 2nd best team in the NFL, imo and are the most playoff ready in the NFC, no disrespect to the Panthers, they just need more weapons for Cam.
Tom Coughlin should have been fired last year, the Giants should be running away with the division.
The Packers can't get by on Aaron Rogers carrying the team on his back anymore, teams have basically figured out his only weapons are some fat RB, an overrated prospect, and some guy they more or less picked up off the street. Aaron Rodgers is making up for the fact the front office has not done a great job drafting well.
It's kind of crazy how quietly Adrian Peterson has dominated this year. But it's getting to the point where it would be dishonest to ignore that.
If the Chiefs make the Playoffs this year, you're going to have to give Alex Smith his due, he's on the verge of having best year of his career at this rate with healthy receivers.
Let's be reality, the talent levels in the NFL have taken a nosedive. There are only 2 really good teams in each division maybe 3 in the NFC and every other team is on the spectrum of bad to average.
