Speed,
I think your point is that the NFC Least tells us little about how good this team really is and I agree. That may be an all time worst division and with Washington next, we will still have learned very little.
But it's not like the Hawks have played a tough schedule either and their defense looks helpless. The Packers do look like a well balanced team though.
Yesterday felt like all brakes, no gas. Let's see how they respond. To me, the Rams just played their fourth pre-season game. I still have no idea what their defensive identity is. It looks like AD and the JAGS most of the time.
