The norm is to over-react early in the season one way or the other!

It's a long season and anything can happen, good & bad!

Just look at last season, the Bengals started 5-4 while the Ravens were 8-3 by week 11 and sitting alone at the #1 seed. The Ravens wouldn't win another game and the Bengals went on to the Superbowl.

In 2000, the Ravens had what many experts believe to be 1 of the top 5 defenses in NFL history. Yet in week 2 they played Jacksonville and managed to win a shootout 38-35...that's in a season where they gave up 162 points for the season. That game represented over 20% of the points they allowed all season.

We also went through a 5 game stretch where we didn't score a touchdown!!! At the end of that stretch we were 5-4 and basically a laughing stock on sportscenter.....we never lost another game and won the Superbowl.

Much like in MFN, if you can start at least 2-2 in the first 4 games....any team can figure it out and go on a run....especially in this day and age where nobody plays in the preseason!

The first 4 games basically become your preseason where you can self-scout and figure out what your identity as a team actually is. Of course the problem is you can't start 0-4 and bury yourself to far.

With that being said, I do believe we will see a team start 0-4 one season soon and make a serious playoff run

According to the original meme poster, Burrow has been sacked 13 times for minus 73 yards while Najee has 72 rushing yards this year.

Anyone start Tua on their fantasy
Team ? He only had like 100 points

I wish, my QB 1 is Russell Wilson

Joe Burrow has been sacked 83 times since tge start of last season!

2nd most is Baker Mayfield with 49!!!!

I heard this on NFL Radio on XM....I heard in the off-season they spent a ton of the line and fixed it.....LMAO

All true, including "upgrading" 3/5 of their OL. So far no good, and he might challenge the record of Derek Carr's older brother David. All of those sacks David Carr took led him into broadcasting at an early age.

Recently converted from Redskins fan to a Commanders fan.

Yet, still, forever in mediocrity.

I don't know how old you are but the Renamedskins were a dynasty back in the day!!!
