New Orleans, and Seattle benefitted from easy starts, and show glaring weaknesses.
Seattle will get shellacked for the next two weeks (Giants and Bears) without an O-line.
The Saints face a wicked schedule (PITT, JAX, CINCY, BAL, GIANTS, DALLAS, WASH, PHILLY, ATLANTA twice, CAROLINA twice). Only a game with the NINERS and two with TAMPA look like potential future wins.
The Vikes have looked good, but I don't trust them yet, either.

(Oops! The Saints don't face Jacksonville... still a tough schedule, though.)

I would have to say the Saints- until they prove otherwise. I really do wish them well, hard not to root for the underdog, and I think they HAVE improved, but I just don't believe they are there yet.

first off Seattle will do fine against both teams coming up and calling squealers a wicked matchup is like saying my pet fish will kill your dog!!! get real people look at more than the stats look at how well teams are doing .. Pitt sucks and will continue to.. chargers are doing good under a fish QB but i don't think it will last ..most of the teams you listed as tough competition are full of injuries already .. my coach always played down to LOSER teams like det and Arizona...why push hard and get injuries against nobodies? you should really look around before you start throwing insults around .. the saints? yeah they have a tough season coming up but Pittsburgh isn't part of it. jax yeah good strong def cincy ...good strong off ..hell you aren't even talking about balanced teams.. wash was a pipe dream go figure they talk about their greatness every year and lo and behold...splat nothing special ..lets see oh Carolina without smith... goes to show you they are dependent on 1 player.. so no greatness there.. re look through your list there and re evaluate your question.. and what the hell happened to everyone saying Seattle has the softest schedule but now they are facing tough competition? PHHHHT! make up your minds

The Vikings!!! The two games the have won were against teams that were supposed to be playoff contenders but have looked like garbage so far, plus Brad Johnson will wear down as the season goes on.

Obviously New Orleans but I'd also say San Diego....2-0 against two of the worse teams in the league in Oakland and Tennessee....

Seattle.
No Super Bowl loser has made the playoffs in the following season since 2000.
That trend continues this season.
Look for the Seahawks to go 7-9 or 8-8 this season.

As of right now I'd have to say Seattle cause you figure they went to the Super Bowl last season and should contend for the title again but they look like crap so far, either the teams they're playing are that lousy or they aren't playing to there potential.

The Chargers, come on Oakland and the Titans. Although with those weak scores from the Seahawks they proably are the worse.

VIKINGS
Their defense is smoke and mirrors. They are one Fred Smoot sponsored boat party away from falling apart. Suspect pass rush, having to rely on a trick play to win a game...
Brad Johnson is NOT the answer.
