Niners roll to another win and the Raiders... well, they're the Raiders. Sorry.

Saints are 4-0 after beating the Jets in the Superdome, the dominating offense that we've seen to start the season was held to only 1 TD (Pierre Thomas) and a field goal, while our steadily improving defense scored two in the win. Although Brees had a sub-par performance with only 195 yds and 0 TDs, Will Smith and Darren Sharper made huge defensive plays to win the game. This is kind of a glimmer of hope for NO fans that have been praying for some kind of defensive improvement to really round out our team. NO - 24 NYJ - 10

The Cowboys win is solid, but aside from that you have the Bengals before they started getting lucky, AND you needed your own luck there. Then the Browns and Raiders, I mean it's good practice? But tougher games are ahead for you. Although it's not all bad, you're playing well. But a defense feasting early on bad teams or teams in turmoil of some sort, plus a QB that makes Trent Dilfer look more like an INDY driver than bus driver.
At some point, the QB will be called on to push that bus harder than it can go, and they'll crash off the road. Bus drivers except in really rare cases (Dilfer with the Raven's D and run game both in their prime) don't win Super Bowls, and that's all Kyle Orton is. He's making Eddie Royal sit in the back of the bus, too.
But of course, 4-0 is still 4-0. This is probably a 9-10 win team now that they've gotten off to this start, with maybe one win in the playoffs if they were to get a team with similar playoff woes to the Cowboys. Although in the AFC, who would that even be? Chargers may not even make the playoffs, lol.
