Kevin Walter hurts the Texans. It helps Miami next week.

A few things that I took away from the first week.

New Orleans, Green Bay & Baltimore look like the top of the town. Depending on how things shake out with injuries and , oh wait, 15 more games this season, they could be playing in the Super Bowl.

The amount of playoff teams & division winners that were crushed yesterday. Pittsburgh Steelers lost by 28, Kansas City Chiefs lost by 34, Indianapolis Colts lost by 24, Atlanta Falcons lost by 18, Seattle Seahawks lost by 16, the New England Patriots??

That's 5/7 Division Winners, Automatic Playoff Entries that lost by 3 scores. Amazing.

Cam Newton played brilliantly. He flashed on everything and he almost drove his team down to win the football game. A real test will be when he faces the Green Bay Packers this week.

The Cowboys are going to wish they had reeled in that game against the Jets in January. They literally just handed the Jets the football game. I follow Gregg Rosenthal on Twitter and his tweet was hysterical--to me anyways. A punt, a fumble, a 2 yard drive equals a come from behind win in the 4th QTR. Before Michael Jenkins went out of the game for about a quarter, the Jets had no advantages at the WR position, other than throwing Holmes in at the slot. They couldn't run the ball, they weren't committed to it either, and they couldn't consistently get it down the field until Alvin Ball & Brian McCann were manning the CB positions.

Bears looked impressive as well, and that Lions O can be a good one. AP showing he is still great. That NFC North will be a nasty nasty division this year.
