MVP: Peyton Manning, Andrew Luck, Jimmy Graham, Drew Brees?
Biggest disappointment: Baltimore, they look horrible
Quiet ballers: Cincy, Carolina. Carolina has their biggest game in years this weekend vs SF.
Ill say this, KC is undefeated, but they not going to the Super Bowl.
I think the most intriguing story the second half will be the NFC North race with both Cutler and now Rodgers injuried. If Trestman wins the division, I think he enters the discussion of coach of the year, I right now Im leaning towards the Bears as the team to beat.
Thoughts? Discussion?

Who would you consider to be loud ballers?
KC is undefeated and they deserve every W in their win column but they're not as strong as their record. Arrowhead has traditionally been a tough place to win...even moreso than Seattle's sound tunnel over a longer period of time, so they need to finish ahead of Denver to have a shot at the Super Bowl. I think they'll lose some road games before the end of the year, namely the one in Denver.
Stud teams:
Denver, KC, New Orleans, Colts
Dud teams (expected to be at least decent and never showed up):
Atlanta, Philly, NJ Giants, Houston, Pittsburgh, Baltimore
On the rise:
Redskins, Browns (yes, I said Browns), Panthers, Lions (due to death of other division teams)
Falling:
Dallas, Chicago, GB without Aaron
Most overrated team:
Seattle
Surprise team:
NJ Jets
MVP: Peyton Manning
Toilet Bowl Award (career swirling down): Eli Manning
Please Go Award: Matt Schaub
Coach of Year: Andy Reid
Rookie of Year: Kiki Alonso
Rookie Bust: Tavon Austin
