And It Begins - The Ever Popular....Power Rankings

Actually there is. It would go something like this: 'There's no other way to put it: I don't know a damn thing about football. I look at a 6-10 team that was about 5 plays away from 8-8 or 9-7 and have no other choice but deem it a disaster.'

LOL :biggthump

Edit: Normally I pay ZERO attention to power rankins all season- however- this was so far out of touch I had to post it.

Somebody mentioned before that we were ranked so low because we have an unproven QB. A lot of the people above us didn't make huge changes in the offseason but because of one or two rookies they drafted all of a sudden they will be great. Isn't that the TRUE definition of being unproven?

And it's very true about the Bills. The Bills and the Redskins have strikingly similar teams. Great defenses, both young unproven QBs, elite running backs. Why are they ranked so high?

please remember this is the Fox power rankings. This is the same media group that didn't vote Ramsey as Fan Favorite for the tough guy award 2 years ago because they liked Ray Lewis better, although redskins fans "flooded the voting polls". Fox media is shitty. So I don't care about their rankings, if anything I'm happy because I want the team to be underated, it will suprise other teams when we whoop dat ass!

And the Ravens...

Tell me how Boller, a superstar RB, and the #6 defense in the league last year is so much better than Ramsey, a superstar RB, and the #3 defense last year.

Ok there are some teams that I thought where to high and I also believe they put the skins a little bit low.

There is no way the chargers are #4 this is just based on LAST year and people you have to take it for what it is its just bull crap they play it safe this is the same team of people that put the chargers at #32 last year and now say they are the 4th best team based on 1 season thats FOX for you. so take it as it is.

Also the bills can't be that high with a rookie QB (and higher than Pitsburgh may I add fell to number 8 behind the Jets come on)

The Cardinal ARE WAYYYYY HIGH this is based more on the assumption they are going to take the divisions....... BRONCOS droping 12 spots to 20 based on what ......... this is all hipe and speculation I do believe the Boys and Skins needed to be at least 3 spots up


The Bottom 6 teams I do agree and the top 2 also untill they prove otherwise

JP Freaking Losman??????!?!?!?!?!!? I am not saying this kid is not going to be good but he has thrown exactly 5 passes in the NFL. 5 PASSES! How can any team witha guy that inexperienced be ranked 5th. That is just silly.

There is no doubt two teams are grossly overated one is the cardinals, and 2 is the bills. I know the cards have a lot of potential but this is hard to swallow. The Bills have losman at Q...this alone should downgrade them...he is a mystery. I feel the redskins and cowboys are fairly placed in preseason power rankings because their respective offenses are just unproven. The NFC east cannot be dominant on defense alone!!

After watching the new Gibbs, Williams, and Arrington videos last night and hearing more of the usual crap from the media, I have a feeling I will be using the phrase:

"It's Joe Gibbs, stupid"

fairly often as a reply to the pre-season doubters.

The more we are overlooked, the better. Said it before.

These things are a joke, of course. But everyone is really on the cards jock this year, and the BIlls as well. Well see...

Thank god we actually get to PLAY the games! ;)
