We hear this, right? Well, have you checked the standings?
At the time of this writing,
Bengals
Patriots
Broncos
are all undefeated. The only other team in the AFC who is above .500 is the Jets.
So, who is leading the AFC South?
The 3-4 Colts.
The NFC has 8 teams above .500 to the AFC's 4.
Still, it's "any given Sunday" (or Thursday for us this week.
Today I'm TEAM SEWELL. Tomorrow TEAM PITTS. Maybe TEAM CHASE. I can't decide, and glad I don't have to.

And if the Bengals had lost today they would have lost to a team with a winning record, which no doubt the talking heads would have jumped all over.
So yeah. Damned if we do, damned if we don't. Though last I checked you are SUPPOSED to beat teams with losing records.
Everything in this post is my fault.

Other teams need to step their game up

Check out the impressive list of wins by Denver. Outside of the Vikings, it's nobody.
Carolina? LOL
Green Bay? 4 of their wins are the same teams we've beaten
Lets face it, when you have this many teams unbeaten in week 8, you're going to have a TON of teams under .500.
