What NFL team has surprised you?

For me, it's the Detroit Lions. To me, everything tells me that they should be good, but they're not. You look at Kitna and he has the numbers...you look at Williams and he has the potential to be good. There defense obviously struggles big time but I thought they'd be able to overcome it.

The big thing that I like about the Lions is their coaching. They have the coaching to be a good team but it's tough to be good without the players. Coming into the season, I thought the team had some really good potential; but I guess I was wrong .

What do you all think? What team has surprised you (good, or bad)?

Tampa.

I thought they were a 12-win team starting the season, but Simms completely regressed before he started losing body parts.

I didn't think they had an offense to complement that defense. It looks like I was wrong.

I'll be surprised by them if they beat the Bengals. Right now, I'm not terribly surprised -- they've won close games against teams I thought were about as good as they are and beaten up on bad teams.

I'm surprised at how well the Bears and Ravens have played.

I'm surprised at how poorly Tampa and Carolina have played.

Steve Smith.

That's not to say the Panthers offense has been explosive since he's been back, but they're undefeated as a team and Delhomme looks like he's back on track.

The Rams are 4-1, beating Denver at home, and Green Bay on the road.

I didn't think Rex would be as good as he's been.

I doubt if too many people thought the Saints would be 4-1 at this point.

I thought they'd be more likely to be 3-2, but that's a pretty easy schedule they've started with.

The 49ers jumped out of from behind the dresser the other day while I was folding laundry. Took me so unawares, that I practically jumped right through the roof...so yeah, them.
