Four upsets in the NFC for Week 2 could signal a much different balance of power than originally anticipated. In addition, only one of the teams pulling an upset made the playoffs last year.
The Dallas Cowboys, San Francisco 49ers, Detroit Lions, and Philadelphia Eagles will likely all get back on track soon. Upstart teams such as the New Orleans Saints, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Atlanta Falcons, and Minnesota Vikings will have to prove whether their Week 2 performances were one-time events or trends toward big seasons.
