What four things stood out to the author this week?

People always overreact to week 1: teams are declared good or bad and players are lionized or castigated for their performances. Let’s try not to make major sweeping decisions but see what is standing out after 2 weeks.

The upcoming slides really focus on a group of teams that are struggling. Their struggles can be related to injuries, lack of production or just having to deal with a tough schedule. The issue is that these problems can’t continue if this group wants to make a playoff run.

Several of the teams on this list have head coaches that are on the hot seat. It also includes Jeff Fisher who should be on the hot seat but appears close to getting a 3-year contract extension.

Again, we have only just finished the 2nd week of the season but things are starting to get critical for a few franchises.
