Are we a top 10 team?
 

I've been reading [URL="http://walterfootball.com/nflpowerrankings.php"]power rankings[/URL] and the like this week, and I'm surprised how high people are on us. I'm excited about our progress, but I'm not sure we are a top 10 team like the rankings I linked have us as. What do you guys think? Do we have an argument to being the 8th best team in league? Or even top 10? I'm not sure our offense is dynamic enough to justify that, but maybe I'm alone.

Well... its as much of a week to week what have you done for me lately league its hard to say but my initial reaction is no.

Re: Are we a top 10 team?
 

I'm not really sure.

But you could argue that we almost beat the team many refer to as the top dog in the NFC (the Cowboys).

We have the 4th Offense in yards per game and beat 2 of the best defenses in the league (in y/game) in the Ravens (1st) and the Vikings (3rd).

I know we have a hard time considering our team a top team, but look at the standings, look at the stats, I say there is no team we have absolutely no chance to beat. We have holes but so does pretty much every team in the NFL.

Are we top 10? I don't know... But try to name 10 teams you are 100% sure are better than us? The pats, the cowboys (who we almost beat), no arguing on these two... but after that for me it's up for debate.
(And I'm defenitely not saying we're the 3rd best team in the league, we're far from that).

Re: Are we a top 10 team?
 

But I would say we're not, top 10 teams find ways to win winnable games, we haven't done that consistently

Are we ballers?

The answers lies there...

Re: Are we a top 10 team?
 

Definitely top 10, why is that so hard to believe?

4-0 against teams with winning records this year, just saying.

Re: Are we a top 10 team?
 

We're easily in the top half of the league and we're steadily getting better. I think we may continue to flirt with a Top 10 ranking. If we can upgrade our defense in the offseason, I think we'll be firmly established as a Top 10 team.

Trap ranking...

Are we a top 10 team?
 

We are absolutely a "borderline" top ten team. If we are not 8-10 right now than who is? Baltimore, Arizona, Detroit, Minnesota, Giants, Bengals, or Miami? After that it is very obvious there is nobody that should be even considered as top ten. Too answer your question you only need to look at the aforementioned teams. We beat Baltimore, Minnesota, and the Giants so to say we are better than them is no stretch at all. We tied the Bengals.
So it boils down to are we better than Detroit, Arizona, or Miami. Detroit beat us last second in their house?
It is certainly no stretch to say we are 8-10 right now.
Philly is ranked ahead of us too and we beat them pretty handily. Atlanta is trending down. I say right now we are the seventh best team behind Pats, Dallas, Seattle, Oakland, Denver, and KC.
Sorry number 8 throw Pitt ahead of us too.
If you just go NFC we are clearly number three.

Since starting 0-2, we're 5-1-1.

Would you want to play us right now?

Can easily think of about 25 teams who would not.
