Notes |
1 |
1 |
Patriots |
5-0 |
The Patriots fell asleep a little in the second half last week against the
Browns. They were probably already starting to prepare for the
Cowboys. We are finally here! Super Bowl preview. Tom Brady's first
visit to Big D. Belichick did a number on Parcells last time these two
teams met. |
2 |
2 |
Colts |
5-0 |
Plug and Play. Even without Addai and Harrison, the Colts won
easily. Now they get the bye week to heal everyone. |
3 |
3 |
Cowboys |
5-0 |
Was it Wade Wilson's return from suspension that caused Romo to throw 5
interceptions? The Cowboys will never get away with that kind of
sloppy play this weekend against the Patriots. They are going to need to
bring their A+ game to win. |
4 |
5 |
Steelers |
4-1 |
The top teams of the AFC are starting to flex their muscles again. The
Steelers totally dominated the Seahawks last week. Like the Colts,
Pittsburg is feeling good going into their bye week |
5 |
6 |
Titans |
3-1 |
The Titans did not look good against the Falcons but still won. Look for
more defenses to stop the Titans running game and force Young to make some
plays down field. |
6 |
7 |
Jaguars |
3-1 |
The Jaguars got some revenge on the Chiefs after last year's loss at
Arrowhead. The run defense held the Chiefs to only 10 yards, a mind
blowing statistic. |
7 |
4 |
Packers |
4-1 |
The Packers did not impress us last week against the Bears. We definitely
had them overrated and we were on the Favre bandwagon. I think reality
has set in and the Packers can look for a tough match up against the
Redskins secondary this weekend. |
8 |
9 |
Ravens |
3-2 |
Dink and Dunk works in the NFL I guess. At some point the Ravens
are going to have to score some touchdowns or else they are going to get
burned. |
9 |
10 |
Chargers |
2-3 |
Finally, the Chargers explode and they could take over first place in the
AFC West with a victory over the Raiders this weekend. Norv Turner
will be looking to roll up the score against his former team. |
10 |
8 |
Seahawks |
3-2 |
The Seahawks could do nothing against the Steelers last week. They are
happy to be coming home for a match up against the lowly Saints. |
11 |
12 |
Redskins |
3-1 |
The Redskins' took out their frustrating loss to the Giants on the Lions.
The secondary will be tested again on the Road against Favre. |
12 |
16 |
Giants |
3-2 |
The Giants have played in some of the wildest games so far this year.
Give the team some credit after being thrown under the bus after week 2. |
13 |
13 |
Buccaneers |
3-2 |
Pick up Ernst Graham for your fantasy football team. He is the only
running back the Bucs have left to play. |
14 |
14 |
Lions |
3-2 |
How does a team lose 21 straight games to an opponent on the road? Well,
you just score 3 points. |
15 |
15 |
Bears |
2-3 |
The Bears are showing that they are going to have to win with their defense
again this year. Tillman has mastered the art of stripping a football. |
16 |
11 |
Broncos |
2-3 |
This might be one of the worst Broncos teams that Shanahan has coached. |
17 |
17 |
Eagles |
1-3 |
McNabb is going to be having flashbacks of the sack attack he experienced in
the Meadowlands a few weeks ago. Luckily for him, the Jets only have 3 sacks
all this year. |
18 |
19 |
Texans |
3-2 |
Look for Kris Brown to get some more field goal chances this week against
the stingy Jags defense. |
19 |
21 |
Panthers |
3-2 |
Carolina loves playing on the road this year. 3-0 so far.
David Carr will be the starting QB from here on out. Fox will need to
motivate this team week in and week out. |
20 |
22 |
Cardinals |
3-2 |
The Cardinals are bringing in 43-year-old Vinny Testaverde and Tim Rattay
for tryouts as they search for a replacement for injured QB Matt Leinart |
21 |
18 |
49ers |
2-3 |
The 49ers offense looks horrific. They have a bye week to try and
straighten things out. |
22 |
26 |
Raiders |
2-2 |
What a first place team ranked this low in the Power Rankings?
The Raiders are in FIRST place without even having to play a game last week.
I just had to say that. |
23 |
23 |
Bengals |
1-3 |
"If you don't want to be on the team, don't show up." Will the
wounded Bengals show up in Arrowhead this week? |
24 |
25 |
Chiefs |
2-3 |
What? 10 yards rushing last week, are we missing a zero? Look for Larry
Johnson to unload on the Bengals this week. |
25 |
24 |
Jets |
1-4 |
Here we go again with another NFL player wanting more touches. Where have we
heard this before?

Saints |
0-4 |
There is no fire in this team at all this year. Poor execution all
around. |
27 |
27 |
Browns |
2-3 |
The Browns have showed some progress but just aren't at a level to
compete with teams like the Patriots or Colts. |
28 |
28 |
Bills |
1-4 |
Like I said last week, Thurman
Thomas and Jim Kelly will be having flashbacks to Super Bowl losses if they
watched this game. That loss will sting for a while. |
29 |
29 |
Vikings |
1-3 |
Tavaris Jackson is expected to start against Chicago this week, not that it
matters. |
30 |
30 |
Falcons |
1-4 |
Harrington remains the starter this week as the QB carousel have moved from
Arizona to Atlanta now |
31 |
31 |
Dolphins |
0-5 |
I think Miami will be better off with Lemon as their QB |
32 |
32 |
Rams |
0-5 |
Gus Frerotte put up some decent numbers last week. It will be tough for the
Rams to do anything this week against the Ravens defense. |
