Its still a bit early to declare that, Injuries and adjustments will all have an effect. At the same time, their schedule isn't that hard.

Yeah true. I remember 2 years ago when my Saints looked unstoppable on O all the way through U.S. Thanksgiving, then just completely ground to a halt the rest of the year (though I trust a 25 year old Mahomes and all those weapons to keep it going over a 39 year old Brees and basically 1 WR). And yeah injuries are always the great equalizer.
I guess what I'm saying is, Chiefs-Ravens was the Super Matchup I was craving, and...yikes! Even that final score flattered the Ravens, it never felt close.

Oh I hear you, and I love how KC's offense is structured. I've been totally caught in looking at teams early and declaring them un stoppable, so I take it with a healthy dose of skepticism

Exactly, nobody wins the Superbowl in week 3, and really even a team that's 0-3 at this point still has enough runway left to get back into the playoffs. Especially this year with the early season being a bit different due to no pre-season and there being an extra Wild Card team.
Last year the Patriots looked unbeatable for 9 weeks. Even the Chiefs beat the Ravens in week 3, yet KC was the #2 seed in the playoffs and New England ended up the 3 seed and out before the Division round. Previous year New England beat KC in week 5 but the Chiefs still got the number 1 seed, New England still won the Super bowl. So even the head to head win this early in the past two years didn't even determine which team ultimately became the top seed.
That said I thought that game was going to mean a lot to the Ravens, they talked it up a fair bit. But they really didn't have it outside of that kick return, the score was closer than the game was. So for me that was surprising that they didn't play a more spirited game.

New England last year though had many warning signs they weren't as good as their record indicated. They had a very easy schedule of crappy QBs, and their offense was still struggling. The Chiefs actually only have room to be better as you already assume their offense is the best in the league. If they can get league average defense they are favorites, but if they get top third of the league defense they become almost unbeatable.

I took the Vikings in my Madden 21 franchise mode and blew up the team, and the real Vikings seem to be doing just as bad as me. At least I have 7 picks in the first 4 rounds next draft..

So despite the fact the Titans can't even practice until at least Saturday, the NFL expects them to play on Sunday or maybe give them one day extra and move it to Monday and have to play the 3-0 Steelers? I'm not a betting man but I know which team I'm putting my money on.

In all seriousness, this is commentary on the real Vikings that they should have started a rebuild. I know no one gives a #### about my Madden game. Jesus

Yeah but we keep the betting talk to the "degenerate piece of garbage" thread for the most part.

Haha oh I know, that wasn't at anyone here in particular or even about CP specifically. Just a general comment as someone who's never really been into gambling but ran a fantasy league for years back in the day.
Even 960 hosts will quickly chirp any fantasy team talk, but then go on about their Proline ticket. I always saw it as the same ish.

After additional players and coaches tested positive on the Titans, the game against the Steelers has been moved to another week in the season.

The game has now been postponed to later in the season because 2 more people have tested positive on the Titans.
