Again…KC’s faced Lamar Jackson, Burrow, Herbert and Cousins. Denver’s faced Justin Fields, Geno Smith, Mayfield and a washed Rodgers. Pretending that the latter teams are clearly better than the former is pretty funny.
Any fool can see that Baltimore’s an elite team and the Bengals are far more dangerous than their record would indicate. The Falcons are a talented team that could make a little noise in the NFC, and the Chargers are clearly improved under Harbaugh, with statistically the best defense in the league so far.
Common sense (and history) also tells us that Seattle and Pittsburgh won’t sustain this rate of winning, and that the record of Denver’s opponents is largely due to playing bad competition. Tell me how many teams in this league would have worse records than Seattle and the Jets with those schedules.
But since you buy firmly into “you are what your record says you are,” even after four games, congrats on yet another year of mediocrity I guess.
