What happened: Pittsburgh defensive tackle Cam Heyward gave his league assessment on the Rich Eisen Show. He said, "I would say Seattle's probably the best team right now." "I also think Cincinnati's defense has been ballin' as of late," he added.

Why it matters: The assessment lands as Pittsburgh regroups after a Week 3 loss that put its offense under scrutiny. Heyward recently challenged the NFL's pay controls, keeping his voice central to league debate.

What to watch: How Seattle and Cincinnati play in Week 4 will test his assessment.
