NFL Week 5 Review

Cardinals at Rams- The Cardinals didn't look for real, giving up nine sacks and scoring only three points on the Rams. Sam Bradford either isn't there yet as a QB, or he really REALLY needs more talent around him.
Better right now- Cardinals
Better at the end of the season- Cardinals


Falcons at Redskins- Tony Gonzalez looking like his old self, catching 13 receptions for 121 years and a touchdown. Falcons remain undefeated, RGIII takes a hit and leaves the game. Redskins were winning because of him, we'll see what happens if he has to sit a week or two.
Better right now- Falcons
Better at the end of the season- Falcons

Eagles at Steelers- Turnovers continue to be a trend in Philadelphia. Vick throws two touchdowns, fumbles and loses it twice, Steelers win on a last-second field goal. Mendenhall back for Pittsburgh will help, but they still have issues.
Better right now- Philadelphia
Better at the end of the season- Philadelphia

Packers at Colts- Defense compliments offense, both are needed to win. Field goal misses, missed or bad calls, it all boils down to the 60 minutes you play. Packers dominated, Colts came out in the second half, guns blazing. Emotional win for them, my best to their coach on progressing towards a speedy recovery through treatment.
Better right now- Packers (though the defense is a HUGE concern, Colts aren't bad either)
Better at the end of the season- Packers

Browns at Giants- Amad Bradshaw runs for 200 yards, Browns are still the Browns. Eli throws for three touchdowns, does he want the league MVP?
Better right now- Giants
Better at the end of the season- Giants

Titans at Vikings- Blair Walsh goes 3/3 on field goals, Ponder is alright, and Harvin does it all (eight receptions for 108 yards, one touchdown, two rushes for eight yards and a touchdown). Tennessee isn't in a good place, and Chris Johnson continues to allow people to ask if he is overrated (15 carries for 24 yards) If he reaches 1,000 yards this year, that will feel like 2,000.
Better right now- Vikings (The NFC North is going to be very interesting)
Better at the end of the season- Vikings

Dolphins at Bengals- Tannehill leads his team (despite not throwing a touchdown) to an impressive victory over a good Cincinnati team. Dalton and Green weren't enough today.
Better right now- Cincinnati (Dolphins aren't bad at all either)
Better at the end of the season- Cincinnati

Ravens at Chiefs- Defensive to the MAX! Ray Rice and Jamal Charles each rush for over 100 yards (Charles 30 carries, 140 yards, Rice 17 carries, 102 yards). Justin Tucker and Ryan Succop battle back and forth, scoring all the points of the game. Cassel goes down with a head injury and the home fans cheer? Someone may want to find a different location and let Brady Quinn handle the mess in Kansas City.
Better right now- Ravens
Better at the end of the season- Ravens

Seahawks at Panthers- Cam can't do it all, and Carolina should remember they have two talented running backs in Jonathan Stewart and DeAngelo Williams. Seahawks aren't doing it pretty, but they are 3-2. Seattle has a death row for the next three games (vs New England, @ San Francisco, @ Detroit).
Better right now- Seahawks
Better at the end of the season- Carolina (but both teams will be close)

Bears at Jaguars- Straight-up beatdown. Jacksonville is dead. Bears had no problem today.
Better right now- Bears
Better at the end of the season- Bears

Broncos at Patriots- Manning vs Brady. New England up big, lets it slip away, and then any more drama is robbed from every fan in the form of a fumble by Willis McGahee (the first run of the drive). Steven Ridley rushes for 151, while Manning outpasses Brady.
Better right now- New England (Denver is up there)
Better at the end of the season- New England

Bills at 49ers- 49ers are the best team in the NFC, period. A strong defense, a better offense than last year, they may be the complete package. Buffalo needs another year or two to mature and develop.
Better right now- 49ers
Better at the end of the season- 49ers

Chargers at Saints- An amazing game, back and forth. Drew Brees breaks Johnny Unitus's recored for most consecutive games with a touchdown pass, and the Saints score 10 in the fourth quarter to get their first win, couldn't get much better. Marques Colston catches nine balls for 131 yards and three touchdowns, wow!
Better right now- Chargers
Better at the end of the season- Chargers (but the Saints won't be going winless, not even close)

Texans at Jets- Houston still an elite team, the Jets are struggling with their injuries, but also are seeing several unknowns stepping up. If their offense doesn't get it together very soon, it won't matter who is at quarterback. Houston won by six, probably could've won by more than 10.
Better right now- Houston
Better at the end of the season- Houston
