You tell me, whats the bigger surprise?
49ers at 2-3 and the Rams at 1-4 is pretty surprising.
I'm not as surprised the Bengals are 1-4. Tee Higgins missed a bunch of time with injury during training camp and Chase held out. Offense wasn't clicking early and they lost a couple close games.
I'm surprised the Vikings are 5-0 with their schedule, but I thought Aaron Jones and the defense would improve us where 2-3 or 3-2 was possible early.
For me, it's the Commanders at 4-1 that is the most surprising. I didn't think Jayden Daniels would be this efficient as a passer and I was skeptical retread Dan Quinn would have them playing this well right out of the gate. They look like the best team in the NFC East.
Wash v Dallas will be some fun match-up's as the year progresses.
I agree MB, SF's record (and their loss to a mediocre AZ team) is a pretty big surprise.
Rams for me not so much - not with the injuries they've had.
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!
Typical NFL, always something unexpected to begin each season. Honestly, from the national media perspective it has to be Minnesota being 5-0 out of the gate with Sam Darnold. So many national types just 100% dismissed the Vikings with 'journeyman bust' Sam Darnold leading the charge. A few people suspected it wasn't going to be a shit show, but not many on the national media stage. And certainly not to this successful extent.
5-0 Vikings plus this:
Oh my.

The most surprising thing to me is that this graph does not correlate with the amount of minutes per game that I have been stressed out, pacing the floors and shouting out expletives :D

Hahaha oh, yeah! I'm with you on that. The past two games have been a roller-coaster of emotions. Whew! Thank goodness for the buy.
