This is my power top 16: 1. Chicago Bears (6-0) 2. San Diego Chargers (4-1) 3. Indianapolis Colts (5-0) 4. Denver Broncos (4-1) 5. New England Patriots (4-1) 6. New Orleans Saints (5-1) 7. Carolina Panthers (4-2) 8. Seattle Seahawks (4-1) 9. Philadelphia Eagles (4-2) 10. Jacksonville Jaguars (3-2) 11. New York Giants (3-2) 12. Baltimore Ravens (4-2) 13. St. Louis Rams (4-2) 14. Cincinnati Bengals (3-2) 15. Pittsburgh Steelers (2-3) 16. Dallas Cowboys (3-2) Honorable Mention: Atlanta Falcons (3-2), Minnesota Vikings (3-2)
I would put Carolina above New Orleans, because they are undefeated with Smith and have beaten the Saints. Otherwise I can't argue too much with your power rankings. Indy at 5-0 is fools gold, and I expect them to lose a few coming up.
I must be sleeping, MY Saints in someones Power Rankings and in the top 10 no less... someone pinch me.. OR ... let me sleep.. awesome DREAM!~ Just wish the Tigers could be undefeated in this dream.... If someone would of told me the Saints would have a better record then the Tigers at this point in the season, I would of called that person an idiot.
I just about reversed the Carolina and Saints positions, so it is pretty much a tie for me. Either way I can agree with. Smith is definitely their MVP.
The Bears are well on their way to losing this one, so that should knock them down a few pegs. I'd put SD at the top of the heap, followed by Denver, then Chicago, NE, Indy, Carolina, then the Saints.
Yeah I woulda knocked down the Bears at least 2 spots and maybe even 3 had they lost. They came back down to earth....an undefeated season is out of the question now. Grossman is not so great. Their running game is marginal. So look for more struggles offensively down the road.
Even their defense was exposed, actually. The answer to their D is to throw quick slants, outs, in the flat, etc....their defensive backfield is questionable and if the QB has the time, they can be picked apart, as they were tonight.
ricky manning may not be playing anytime soon if the NFL does the right thing...so don't get too excited
