I'm an economist by trade, so I don't like to draw any conclusions until we have a reasonable sample size. Dolphins were topping the comp in the early rounds and were still in the four at the beginning of the origin period last year I believe. Titans were 0 from 6 before showing some good form towards the end of last year. I am by no means understating the Raider's great start to the year- they are my 2nd favorite team actually. But I just don't think we can make evaluations on who are contenders, pretenders, wooden spooners until at least the start of the origin period.
