New rankings: Skins 14th in Dr Z's & 9th in Sportsline

CNNSI's NFL page even features a blurb about how Dr Z has come around to moving the skins up in his rankings. Seems as though someone was truly impressed with the win against Dallas.

I must admit I'm shocked at the recognition. As much as I try NOT to buy into the hype either good or bad, I still like the props

I wonder what impressed him, other than the last few minutes there wasn't much to be impressed about, unless we're talking about the D.

Granted, the Niners don't have a stellar defense. But maybe after seeing the Cowboys rack up 30 points on them (along with the 30 or so they scored on San Diego) Dr. Z is impressed with the way we basically shut that offense down.

Plus TheMalcolmConnection did Dr. Z some favors in the parking lot of the SI building....does anybody have some Scope? Giggity-Giggity!

I think that the barrage of hostile email just finally pushedhim over the edge. At the end of his description he writes, "As poor Uncle Don said in his famous final show for WEAF Radio about 65 years ago, "That ought to hold the little b- - - - - - s," and he wasn't talking about his e-mailers."

It looks like the crazy Redskin fans have finally gotten to the Dr. I've never gone that far (writing to him), but it's nice to know that we have some crazy, belligerent emailers among our ranks.

I like the graph showing ranking history (if you click on the team name).

That gives a much better perspective.

well it's pretty funny because even though we beat the cowboys we still rank below them on the espn's most recent power rankings

Possibly because they worked us for 56 minutes and 14 seconds. Still, 2-0 is better than 2-1.

scoreboard is all that matters

Honestly, I'm suprised we've moved up that much. Honestly, looking at the Dallas game compared to the Chicago game, I actually thought we looked worse offensivley (obviously minus the ending). Hopefully that last couple mintues was an awaking of some kind and our offense will turn it around.

Our defense = Dominant!
