Who are you talking to? I am assuming me in regards to Denver and Tennessee, but when you make the comment of Phily ahead of Dallas...I didn't do that. Dallas was my "1b".
Quote:
My top 10 (um 12, had to hard of a time narrowing it down on the back end):
#1 Dallas (Obviously, I hate to say this, but a win at Green Bay proves it)
#2 NY Giants (Not impressive against Bungals, but impressive when it counted most)
#3 Philly (To much balance on both sides of the ball not to put them this high)
#4 Pittsburgh (Loss to Philly is not indicative of what they can do in AFC)
#5 Denver (The penchant to win close games is sign of good team and the AFC West is weak)
#6 Buffalo (3-0 is 3-0 and wins against Seattle and J'Ville are no joke)
#7 Tenn (Dismantling the Texans shows this 'D' is pretty good)
#8 49ers (If Martz keeps the 'O' Rolling, watch out, Willis is a monster a ILB, this team could go higher in the coming weeks)
#9 Washington (2 straight wins in close games merit a single-digit rating for a team that looks like it is finding an identity)
#10 Jacksonville (A tight win at Indy tells me you should throw out the record + watch out!)
#11 Green Bay (good team, but there will be growing pains with Rogers at the helm)
#12 Baltimore (Flacco does not need to try lead a high powered 'O', he needs to play like Trent Dilfer did in 2000 and trust the 'D' + the running game)

Jacksonville is 1-2 and beat only Indy who is apparently in turmoil. The Jags have a -9 point differential, and you have them in the top 10? Maybe later, but not now.
Baltimore is a team I stayed away from for now. They have only played 2 games and have not been impressive IMO. Defense is looking good, but let's wait until they play some decent competition.
I think the 49ers are too high, as they have not played anyone good minus Arizona who they lost to by 10...yet you have them ahead of the Skins who beat Arizona by 7????
All in all, not bad. We just disagree with a few, and while I disagree with your poll, it's not way off...a lot can easily be interchangable.
