After watching the Skins, I'd consider them a threat. Not really a dark horse any more. RGIII is a good player already, especially since Shanny calls lots of easy passes for him. Teams are going to have to account for his legs on every play, because he can always pull it down and get 7-8 yards. Not to mention their D is legit.

they had a nice gameplan yesterday and we did nothing to make them get away from it. Their front four got the better of our O-line I thought. Anytime you can do that, it makes up for other areas that aren't as good. I don't think their secondary is THAT good.

We were missing our best CB in Jabari Greer and Johnny Patrick left the game with an injury as well but I doubt that would have made a difference. They beat us plain and simple.

Not really gonna argue since as you said it's week 1, but what do you like about the 49ers more than the Texans? I'd say even QB, Advantage Texans at RB, OL push probably, Advantage Texans as best WR and 49ers as depth at WR, and Adv 49ers at TE

D - Both stacked on the front 7 and the 49ers probably stronger in the secondary

So I have them pretty even, was wondering why you like the 9ers more (although they obviously have the best win so far of course)

I like the Texans a lot, but I want to see them against a team that won't finish last in the division. I'm still a little skeptical about their D after losing Mario and Ryans, but they appear to still be strong.

49ers had the most impressive win of the week. Outside of that PR, they pretty much dominated the tempo of the game against one of the top offenses in the league. Smith looks good, and the additions of Moss and Manningham give him an improved group of playmakers.

I'd really like to see the Texans and 49ers play. They both play the Bears, Patriots, and Packers this year, so we'll see how they stack up against elite teams.
