The defending Super Bowl champions are below .500 at the midseason point. Apparently, all the changes they made in the offseason is affecting them a lot more than they thought. They still have enough talent to turn it around though, so I'll attempt to keep their hopes up and give them a C-.
What is there to say about "America's Team" that hasn't already been said? Once again, they're playing .500 ball and as a Cowboys fan, I find it sickening to watch their circus sometimes. Tony Romo has been outstanding this season, but their defense has been terrible. At this point, they are extremely average and a C is the best they'll get right now.
Green Bay started the year in rougher shape than usual. Now it's a different story and they're back on top in the NFC North. Their consistency throughout the years makes me think they won't give up first place anytime soon. They are definitely worthy of an A-.
4-4 is a great record for the Jets at this point. Everyone thought Rex Ryan was sure to be fired after this season, but the play of his rookie quarterback Geno Smith has not only likely saved his job, but the Jets are in playoff contention at the moment. A C+ sounds about right.
New coach. New offense. Below .500 record. Only one game out of first place in their division. With all the injuries to the quarterback position for the Eagles, I'd think they would be completely out of it. However, with how terrible the NFC East is, Philadelphia is still in striking distance. Right now, they deserve this C-, but it could very well end up improving if they end up winning this terrible division.
After all the offseason talk about Robert Griffin III and his comeback, Washington hasn't been very good at all. If RGIII gets it going, he can turn their season right around. As of now, they don't deserve a higher grade than this D.
