Skipped a couple of weeks, but back at it for this past week. The early season suprises, Detroit and Minnesota, continue to be that, with both registering 5-1 records and the Lions just beat the Vikings last week. The Packers and Commanders are both 5-2, also surprising to me (especially Washington). And somehow, someway, my Steelers changed QBs and went out and performed as well as I've seen them perform offensively in recent seasons. Yes, the Jets' rush D is awful and we took advantage but we stopped their vaunted pass rush with a patchwork O line and Russell Wilson took apart their banged up secondary. And the Bears are 4-3 as Caleb Williams is starting to settle in, as I suspected he would.
On the flip side, the Patriots and the Browns are just awful (and the Browns just lost their "star" QB to a season-ending Achilles injury) but right now, the Carolina Panthers are pitiful. The Saints, Raiders, Giants and Jags are bad, and adding Davante Adams won't really help a woeful Jets team, Aaron Rodgers or no Aaron Rodgers.
But no team is like KC right now, and they just added disgruntled star receiver DeAndre Hopkins from Tennessee, to make an average WR room (without injured emerging star Rashee Rice) that much better now.
Maybe we shouldn't be surprised by the Steelers' success.
