NFL Power Rankings: Which Teams Still Have Unanswered Questions?

We have seen some pretty incredible offensive performances thus far in the 2011 NFL season, and teams that have picked up two impressive victories, but no one has played flawlessly. 

It hasn't been close. 

For the Patriots, Tom Brady has been masterful, historic, epic. 

Whatever word you'd like to use. 

The defense on the other hand, has been atrocious. They've allowed 958 total yards which is 31st in the NFL and have made barely any impact at all. 

They have lost a few secondary members, which doesn't bode well for the future. If they can't stop anyone they could lose games even when Brady is his usual self. 

The same goes for the Buffalo Bills. Ryan Fitzpatrick has been great, but their defense made Jason Campbell look like Tom Brady last week. 

Injuries to Michael Vick and Tony Romo create huge question marks for two NFC East contenders. 

If these two signal callers are sidelined, both of their clubs could suffer severely.

Jon Kitna and Vince Young aren't terrible backup options, but both of their respective club's playbooks will surely be watered down. 

For the Bears and the Jets, I'm still not sold on their quarterbacks. 

Jay Cutler and Mark Sanchez can be outstanding at times, fitting throws into tight spots and orchestrating late-game scoring drives. 

However, both can be extremely shaky in the pocket and make bad decisions, usually spoiling fantastic efforts from their stout defenses. 

All these teams look to be solid, but they must answer these questions if they want to contend late in the season. 

We'll just have to wait and see.
