NFL players, coaches, and analysts love talking about dividing the season into four quarters of four games.  Now that the first quarter is in the books, I decided to write down the first thought that popped into my mind about every team.

AFC EAST

  1. Patriots- Starting to fire on all cylinders.  Where do they find these guys? (Brandon Bolden)
  2. Jets- TEBOW!  TEBOW!  TEBOW!
  3. Bills- Average at best
  4. Dolphins- Surprisingly competitive.  Joe Philbin is more competent than the editors of "Hard Knocks" led us to believe

AFC NORTH

  1. Ravens- Super Bowl contenders.
  2. Bengals- Wild card.  Pass eye ball test.  Getting better weekly.
  3. Steelers- Defense constantly straddles fine line between veteran and old.
  4. Browns- Need.Receivers.Bad

AFC SOUTH

  1. Texans- Best team in the NFL???
  2. Colts- It will be fun to chart Andrew Luck's progress.  Wish Chuck Pagano a speedy recovery.
  3. Jaguars- They are an NFL team.
  4. Titans- It will be tough for the organization to part ways with Mike Munchak.

AFC WEST

  1. Chargers- In Norv we don't trust
  2. Broncos- Trending in the right direction.  Peyton took "noodle arm" comments personally.
  3. Raiders- Don't travel well.  Need identity.
  4. Chiefs- Lousy.  Romeo and Cassel's days are numbered

NFC EAST

  1. Eagles- Sloppy, disjointed, talented........3-1.
  2. Cowboys- Here we go again.  Gotta get healthy.
  3. Redskins- Exciting.  RG3 is fun to watch.
  4. Giants- Let them be.  Eli and D-line will figure it out.

NFC NORTH

  1. Vikings- Grinders.  Depending on luck and bounces could be 10-6 or 6-10.
  2. Bears- Tough.  Give Cutler time and he and Marshall will destroy you.
  3. Packers- Seem primed for a big run.
  4. Lions- At least they don't play in Dallas.

NFC SOUTH

  1. Falcons- Super Bowl contenders.
  2. Buccaneers- Young, energetic.  Too predictable on offense.
  3. Panthers- Inconsistent.  Hard luck losers.
  4. Saints- Best 0-4 team EVER!!!

NFC WEST

  1. Cardinals- Point differential don't lie, dawg!
  2. 49ers- Physical.  Super Bowl contenders.
  3. Seahawks- Inspired at home, average on the road.
  4. Rams- Can compete.  Should stay the course with Jeff Fisher.
