Obviously a lot will change each week but here is the start. I will try to keep things updated for as long as I can.
You can really see how much a conference and division loss really hurt. You have to be a good team to overcome a loss like that this early. Out of the 6 teams that lost conference games only the Jets look like they can recover.
Also once again all the talk about how tough a schedule is before the season is probably the most worthless talk of all talk. The Bucs were supposed to have to brutal schedule, after 1 week they have the 2nd easiest schedule in the league.
