NFL rankings after week 8
1. New England- hard to not have them # 1, even though most of their opponents have been lousy
2. Indy- clear # 2 with a chance to bump NE off 3. Pitt- best of the rest 4. San Diego-- seems back after slow start 5. Dallas- gave NE a good game for 3 quarters 6. Tennessee-under the radar but very good 7. NY Giants- have narrowed the gap between themselves and Cowboys in NFC 8. Green Bay-- only concern is poor running game 9. Jacksonville-- they'd be higher w/Garrard but that backup QB is absolutely terrible 10. New Orleans--now rolling after a bad start

doesn't that perception of their opponents say a lot? san diego has allowed an average of 18.4 points/game through last week. ne scored 38 buffalo has allowed an average of 19.3 ne scored 38 dallas has allowed 22.6 ne scored 48 washington has allowed 20.0 ne scored 52 all those average points allowed stats include the points ne put up against the team. none of those are bad d's. meanwhile their d is averaging 15.9 ppg scored against. they built this team to beat indy. your #1 and #2 aren't close.

OK..Obviously biased, but how can SD and NYG be ahead of GB considering they beat them both already? And I'm not sure I would put Tennesse there either. Or Pitt considering they lost to Denver at DEnver and GB beat them there Mon night. 1 and 2 certainly right, Dallas 3, GB 4.. at least until we lose at KC Sunday...

1) PATRIOTS - the NFL'S "evil empire, the team you love to hate!
2) COLTS - defending champions and the team with "class" 3) COWBOYS - best in the "junior" league, QB is thier future ($$$)! 4) PACKERS - ageless wonder @ QB w/ young talent, surprise 5) GIANTS - we saw this last year.....this time no Tiki 6) STEELERS - surprising start for my "Men of Steel" under new coach, division looks a lock with win this week. 7) TITANS - not pretty, but get the job done. 8) LIONS - who would thought? beat the "big bad Bears" @ home, finally a decent team. 9) JAGUARS - the team I "love to hate", done with "smoke and mirrors", still winning record. 10) CHARGERS - best 4-3 record & now on a roll, little too late??? "Bottom feeders" 32) DOLPHINS - change of country did not help 31) RAMS - injuries or not, can't blow 14-0 when you're this bad...oh I forgot 30) FALCONS - can we say Matt Ryan? 29) JETS - find ways to lose 28) 49ERS - can't score with Frank Gore 27) VIKINGS - can we say Matt Ryan II 26) RAIDERS - after somewhat good start...more of the same 25) BENGALS - crime doesn't pay!

Titans at 6 is a little high. They are yet to beat a good team (maybe the Saints but they were struggling at that point) and their last 4 wins were vs Atlanta, Tampa Bay, Houston, and Oakland.

Injuries, hot streaks, weather, home field advantage, etc., etc. have a large say in the matter. So, what I am saying, in effect, is that rankings mean less of a $hit when it comes to what team will show up any given sunday. Look at the Steeler's a few years ago. Made the playoffs by the skin of thier teeth, only to make som real noise in the playoffs. And BTW, the Titans are alot better than most people give them credit for. Fisher is one of the best at interchanging players and not skipping a beat. Probably the best team that noone has heard of. No real superstars, just 53 guys that go out and play a grinding style of football.

I think you have to put JJPees statement into perspective.
He says his "men of steel" ( I won't be addrressing JJP directly.....I promise you) with a win this week will lock up the division. Now should that happen they will be 6-2. Cleve. and Balt. ( should they win) will be 5-3. So ,according to the steel fetish man, Pitt. will have the div." locked up" at the half way point......by reason of a ONE game lead over TWO teams...... ....don't ya know.

i can see a very good argument for having steelers at #three, their d is the best in the nfl going by points against. they're the only team left in double digits in that regard.
as for the o, pats have scored over 100 points more than the next highest offense. amazing.
