week 4 rankings


AFC

1.       Bengals- had the bye- might be too early for this team. At this point, no significant injuries- now they have 13 straight weeks to stay playing at this level. They were number 1 last week- no reason to move them down.

2.       Broncos- also had the bye. Chargers statistically have a better record but I still think denver’s the more complete team. Can’t wait for them to go head to head

3.       Chargers- yet another surprising win. I thought they were due for a let down. Eddie Royal and Rivers are playing lights out. I thought norv turner was an offensive genius?

4.       Colts- started off the year 0-2, since have two big impressive wins. Luck is starting to get into a groove. Can be a very scary team. Can move up.

5.       Texans- hesitant to put them on here. They are 3-1 and are playing well. JJ Watt is a stud. Scary good- the big test will be next week when they play dallas, another suprising 3-1 team

6.       New England- by default only because I have to choose a team from each division. Baltimore should be here. New England is a dud of a team. The entire east is a dud. But with tom brady and belichick they get the benefit of the doubt.

NFC

1.       Seahawks- had a bye- had them here last week, nothings changed. Lynch had a week to get healthy so most likely the offense will be full throttle coming out of the bye.

2.       Eagles- I was going to move them down, but they still only have the one loss, on the road against a very motivated niners team. The offense was pretty terrible, but they had a nice defensive showing and held the niners to some pretty medicore stats.

3.       Arizona- they are 3-0. One of the last few undefeated teams and they’ve played some pretty impressive teams. We will see what happens when they stop getting so lucky or they have to face adversity.

4.       Cowboys- outside of the week 1 loss to the niners they have surprisingly played well- I hate having them on this list but the offense is clicking and at this point of the season Demarco Murray is the mvp of the nfl. Romo has also kept his mistakes to a minimum (week 1 excluded).

5.        Lions- this is a hard one to gauge. They at times look like a runaway favorite and then the next drive, game etc they look like one of the worst. They are 3-1 and haven’t been tested very much in the division but ultimately think green bay will win it.

6.       Falcons- again by default. I don’t think Atlanta is any better than green bay or san fran but have to put them on here. I think their play is so inconsistent it’s very frustrating. You can’t get a finger on this team because one week before they run away from a medicore tampa team and then the following week lose to a pretty terrible Vikings team who bridgewater was starting his first game.  I had the saints high last week, but after getting thumped by dallas, they have to prove that they belong.

  1. It'll be interesting to see what you do with the NE-Cincy game. I haven't seen enough of these teams play to make much comment here.
