Week 2

1. Green Bay Packers- Don't judge by the final score, Green Bay was in complete control of that game.

2. New England Patriots- We forget Tom Brady had an int, but that was one of the greatest QB performances in the last 10 years none the less.

3. Philadelphia Eagles- They beat a Rams team that turned into a M*A*S*H unit by the 3rd quarter. Vick did the things he needed to do.

4. Baltimore Ravens- The Ravens made a statement by blowing out the Steelers because this is a rivalry where the games are always close.

5. New Orleans Saints- Drew Brees had one of the best games, and the Saints still lost. They can't play defense, can anyone in the NFC South?

6. Houston Texans- They've started out the season strong. The question is can they maintain it...

7. Pittsburgh Steelers- I think they'll bounce back, and they certainly not forget the Ravens running up the score on them.

8. San Diego Chargers- Phillip Rivers continues to be a damn good QB as the Chargers look to cakewalk through that division.

9. New York Jets- Sorry Rex. The Cowboys lost that game. After a huge interception by Revis, how can you only gain 2 yards to set up a game winning 56 yard field goal?

10. Atlanta Falcons- Ouch. But, then again, they're not designed to win outdoor, smash-mouth football.

11. Chicago Bears- Every time I want to doubt then, they step it up and prove me wrong. A strong win.

12. Detroit Lions- Don't adjust your set. If my power rankings determined the playoffs, the Lions would be in.

13. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- They'll still be good. In a hard fought game against the Lions, they came up just short.

14. Dallas Cowboys- They played well enough to win... for 51 minutes. Romo can't make those mistakes and expect to win. They move up because so many fell past them.

15. Arizona Cardinals- Kolb played well, but it was a team effort, despite Cam Newton's atomic passing numbers.

16. St. Louis Rams- They were in the game until the injuries began to pile up. It means a lot that a healthy Rams team could match up with the Eagles.

17. Jacksonville Jaguars- Despite the controversy and QB drama, they stepped it up and played well.

18. Oakland Raiders- I think they could be the 13th best team, but we penalized them 5 spots on a false start.

19. Indianapolis Colts- I'm giving them a reprieve at #19. I hear Peyton has a brother not named Eli, maybe they should call him.

20. San Francisco 49ers- Ted Ginn sighting! Harbaugh did well in his opening game.

21. New York Giants- Coughlin's job is on the line I think. Losing to Rex Grossman's Redskins is not going to help.

22. Miami Dolphins- Chad Henne proved his doubters wrong, at least until next week.

23. Buffalo Bills- There are pornos that do a better job, rather than my words, of explaining what the Bills did to the Chiefs.

24. Kansas City Chiefs- I don't care how many players they have injured, I have never seen a team more listless on opening day, especially at home.

25. Washington Redskins- Rex Grossman had a good gam.... gam... gam............ I can't bring myself to finish that sentence.

26. Cincinnati Bengals- They won. Barely. But they won. Who knows how many more times that will happen this season.

27. Minnesota Vikings- I had more passing yards than Donovan McNabb.

28. Seattle Seahawks- They're not that good, but 2 kick returns in less that a minute... really?!

29. Carolina Panthers- Of the bottom 4 teams, they had the most respectable loss. For them, that might as well count as a win.

30. Cleveland Browns- A common theme for the week: teams failing to take advantage when they could have won.

31. Denver Bronocs- They lost by 3. As a Broncos fan, it felt like 100 points.

32. Tennessee Titans- They fall for failing to take advantage of a depleted Jaguars squad.

YorkeDaddy

1. Packers
2. Patriots
3. Eagles
(indisputable top 3)
4. Ravens - You don't blow out the Steelers without being extremely good.
5. Bears - You don't blow out the Falcons without being extremely good.
6. Saints - If they play like that against ANY other team, they will win easy.
7. Jets - Don't count them out just because they weren't convincing against Dallas
8. Chargers - What matters is what they do in the playoffs.
9. Texans - Honestly they probably should've beaten the Colts even worse than they already did.
10. Steelers - That was embarrassing, but they're sure to bounce back. They always do.
11. Falcons - My faith in this team got slaughtered by those Bears.
12. Buccaneers - One of the top 10 QBs in the league means you're gonna have a decent team.
13. Cowboys - This team is an anomaly to me.
14. Lions - Could this be their year? Perhaps.
15. Raiders - Shaky win against the Broncos? I still have faith in Oakland.
16. Dolphins - Great defense (except against Tom), and if Henne can play like he did on Monday night more often, they'll be good.
17. Rams
18. Panthers - Despite the loss, I wouldn't be surprised if Cam Newton begins to bring this franchise together again.
19. Giants - I can't bring myself to put them higher than this. They've been a massive disappoint the past few seasons.
20. Cardinals - Kolb can't carry a team. The Cardinals will not be very good.
21. Bills - That Chiefs game was obviously a fluke overall, but they're still gonna be better than last year.
22. 49ers
23. Jaguars - Ehhh...they messed up with the whole QB situation.
24. Browns - They lost to an awful team, but I still have faith in this team and that they can possibly be an 8-8 team this season. But it'll take some work.
25. Vikings - The best running back in the league can't help this team anymore.
26. Redskins - They played great against the Giants........I doubt they'll be playing great many more times this season.
27. Seahawks - playoffs last year, blah blah blah. They'll be 6-10.
28. Chiefs - Ohhhh this team has a lot of problems to try and fix.
29. Titans - Remember when Hasselbeck was on a good team? That was a magical time.
30. Broncos - Maybe someday they'll reach their former...glory...
31. Colts - I'm a Colts fan. I have no hope in this team.
32. Bengals - They have a win!!!!...that's probably about all they'll get.

Sparky

Why are people so optimistic about the lions this year?

Maybe i need to see the highlights from last game, but , come on, its the lions

YorkeDaddy

Well, they're winning fairly convincingly right now too.

Week 3

1. Green Bay Packers- Sorry Pats, but the Pack will stay here till they lose.

2. New England Patriots- Dismantled the Chargers and Brady was a surgeon yet again. But that defense...

3. New Orleans Saints- Beat a good Bears team, and the offense looks unstoppable at home.

4. New York Jets- Beat a hapless Jags team and Sanchez was fairly consistent.

5. Houston Texans- Congrats to the 2011 AFC South Division Champions.

6. Pittsburgh Steelers- They were in cruise control during pregame warmups. The Seahawks are a great team to bounce back against.

7. Philadelphia Eagles- They are ahead of the Falcons because they almost won the game with their 3rd string QB. They are likely the best team in the NFC East with or without Vick. But beyond that...

8. Atlanta Falcons- Good win at home and Matt Ryan is starting to come into his own. They remain below the Eagles because of how they lost to the Bears.

9. Detroit Lions- They're in a battle of blue and silver next week, but I believe the underdog Lions are truly America's team.

10. San Diego Chargers- They've been too good for too long to fail in big games as much as they do. I expect that to keep happening till they hire a new head coach.

11. Baltimore Ravens- Who, whose the real team? The one that spanked the Steelers, or the one that folded against the Titans?

12. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- That was a good comeback, but they should know how to jump ahead of a team like the Vikings.

13. Chicago Bears- Jay Cutler is not a bad QB, but when his offensive defends him like the French, they are in trouble.

14. Dallas Cowboys- Respect for Tony Romo. And who knew Jon Kitna was still alive?!

15. Buffalo Bills- I'm calling it right now. They beat the Patriots for the first time in 8 years.

16. Washington Redskins- One more game and I might have something not negative to say about Rex Grossman. In all seriousness, as a Broncos fan, I know what Mike Shanahan can do with a QB he likes.

17. Oakland Raiders- Again, they don't win a game outside the division. It's a fatal flaw if they want to be taken seriously.

18. New York Giants- As much as I love football, that MNF game was ugly beyond believe. But a win is a win, right?

19. Arizona Cardinals- They had that game won. Still, Kolb looks like a good fit.

20. St. Louis Rams- It's all about the injuries. But Bradford can play.

21. San Francisco 49ers- Alex Smith is playing not bad. Yes, that is a grammatically correct compliment.

22.Tennessee Titans- I doubt will be this good again for the rest of the year. But, with Johnson and a mistake free Hasslebeck, they'll give their opponents fits.

23. Denver Broncos- If they are 2-1 next week, there may be hope.

24. Jacksonville Jaguars- Luke McCown almost pulled a Blutarski in ESPN's new QB rating. (0.4 out of 100)

25. Miami Dolphins- So, any thought on the new coach next season?

26. Carolina Panthers- To all the Cam Newton believers and doubters: Once is luck, twice is coincidence... and three times is proof.

27. Cleveland Browns- If there is one thing I will never forgive Josh McDaniels for, it was trading Peyton Hillis to the Browns for Brady Quinn.

28. Minnesota Vikings- Anyone else feel like McNabb is going down hill WAY too fast?

29. Cincinnati Bengals- Dalton to Green. I think we can get used to hearing that on Sundays.

30. Kansas City Chiefs- The guys on injured reserve are the truly lucky ones on this team.

31. Indianapolis Colts- Does Peyton REALLY need his neck? He needs to do his best Ronnie Lott impression to turn them around.

32. Seattle Seahawks- He avoided violations by skipping out of the NCAA, but Pete Carol's NFL team is a crime against humanity.

Thom Yorke

I'd put the Pats above the Packers. They look unbeatable.

YorkeDaddy

1. Patriots - They can not and probably will not be stopped.
2. Packers - They've been playing well, but not as well as the Patriots.
3. Jets - That AFC East is ridiculous this year.
4. Saints - They have one loss. Will they get much more than that??
5. Eagles - They should have won that game. Even with their third string in for the fourth quarter they almost won.
6. Steelers - Well that sure was a convincing bounce back. I don't expect these guys to be fluctuating as much the rest of the season.
7. Chargers - It was a decent effort against the Patriots, honestly.
8. Lions - This could be their year!!!!!!!!!!
9. Falcons - They pulled out a decent win against the Eagles to prevent an 0-2 start. They need to start playing like I know they can.
10. Texans - They're fairly good, but their division is just so horrible this year.
11. Ravens - wtf was that
12. Bears - I love it when a team I hate plays very poorly. Hopefully this continues!
13. Cowboys - Romo is a stud, but they shouldn't have needed a comeback victory against a team like that anyway.
14. Buccaneers - Anything other than a slaughter of the Vikings is pretty bad.
15. Bills - They have been on fire lately.
16. Raiders - Bills won, so they get the spot over these guys.
17. Redskins - I'm still not convinced. We'll see what Grossman can do in the coming weeks.
18. Giants - They don't really budge. That MNF win was pretty ugly.
19. Rams - Bradford/10
20. Panthers - They keep losing, but Newton also keeps showing us that he's inhuman. If he keeps it up, they're bound to get wins soon.
21. Cardinals - They played alright. But still lost. Kolb's doing well for them though.
22. Dolphins - Well...they're trying.
23. 49ers - Hey, Alex Smith, keep doing what you're doing...I guess
24. Titans - They pounded the Ravens. What is the world coming to?
25. Broncos - I'll be shocked impressed if they win next week.
26. Bengals - Andy Dalton? Holy ****!
27. Vikings - Sigh.
28. Browns - Well, they can't go 0-16.
29. Chiefs - These guys, on the other hand, can.
30. Seahawks - These guys are just BAD
31. Jaguars - Haha, 0-16 anyone?
32. Colts - Haha, 0-16 anyone? One of these teams will do it.

Electrophonic Tonic

You a Vikings fan, Yorkedaddy?

Thom Yorke

Nah, that's me. Not sure how you got us confused...
