Time To Panic?

Two weeks of football should not cause one to panic. However, some people have their finger hovering very close that that very button. Among those folks are the people who bought into the speculation that Tennessee would have a respectable air attack and Chris Johnson would return to a reliable fantasy point producer. In two games, he has 21 yards rushing! Also, MFS crush, Kansas City Chiefs, visits N'arlin's in a battle of winless teams. I suppose it is not surprising for the Saints to be winless after the off-season they had. However, they really have looked bad in their two losses and KC's defense has been abysmal.

The talk in Chicago leading up to opening day was that Jay Cutler would live through the season thanks to Mike Tice running the team. He was improving the line and working with Cutler to avoid taking too many steps in his drop and holding onto the ball too long. Well, that went out the window as Cutler has been sacked on the first play of both games and saw more of Clay Mathews in the backfield that he did Matt Forte.

After stunning the Giants in week 1, Dallas fans quickly erased those memories with another no-show on the road in Seattle. I truly believe Tony Romo has now surpassed Eli Manning as the most overrated QB to step on the field.  

True panic is any coordinator trying to put a gameplan together to face the Niners. They look awesome on both sides of the ball. Say what you want about Antonio Gates and Rob Gronkowski. I think Vernon Davis is the hardest Tight End to defend.

The praise about Peyton Manning not losing a step during his year off ended quickly on MNF as he completed more passes to the Falcons in Q1 than he did to his own team. Props for rallying the team, but credit really goes to the defense and Willis McGahee, who is currently the most underrated back in the league. Sunday's game versus Houston will be a true litmus test.

Any Fred Jackson owner who did not immediately grab C.J. Spiller with his next pick has to really feel foolish right now. I don't see Fred being a factor the rest of the year if C.J. stays healthy.
