Continue reading →: Philadelphia Eagles: 2013 Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#20)
Last week: 18 The Eagles had another strong offensive performance this week, but the fact that they have forced just 4 punts to 58 first downs allowed has to be incredibly concerning. They have 5 takeaways (and a forced turnover on downs), but they can’t continue relying on that to…

Last week: 19 The Redskins aren’t making the playoffs in the loaded NFC after starting 0-2, but this wasn’t unpredictable. It’s going to take Robert Griffin a year or so to get back to where he was, just like it took Tom Brady when he tore his ACL in 2008.…

Last week: 22 The Rams were getting blown out by the Falcons before garbage time and injuries almost got them back into it. The fact remains that they were getting blown out by a team that could struggle to make the playoffs in the NFC. The Rams have talent and…

Continue reading →: Arizona Cardinals: 2013 Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#23)
Last week: 23 The Cardinals showed last week, and week 1 for that matter, that they’re going to be a competitive team in a very tough NFC. Their defense hasn’t been nearly as good as it was last year, thanks to losses in the secondary and the suspension of Daryl…

Continue reading →: San Diego Chargers: 2013 Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#24)
Last week: 28 The Chargers could easily be 2-0 right now, but they could also easily be 0-2 after playing field goal games in each of their first two games. Their offense seems rejuvenated under new Head Coach Mike McCoy, converting 82.5% of 1st and 10s for another 1st down,…

Continue reading →: Indianapolis Colts: 2013 Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#25)
Last week: 26 After a 10-1 start to his career in games decided by a touchdown or less, Andrew Luck finally fell in a close game last week against Miami. Miami isn’t a great team, but they’re better than what the Colts are used to facing, after 7 wins by…

Continue reading →: Tampa Bay Buccaneers: 2013 Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#26)
Last week: 24 The Buccaneers kept it close at home with the Saints, but it took a Drew Brees pick six and a very strong defensive performance to do so. Josh Freeman once again contributed nothing positive, completing 9 of 22 for 125 yards, 1 touchdown, and an interception. He’s…

Continue reading →: Buffalo Bills: 2013 Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#27)
Last week: 27 The Bills beat the Panthers at home mostly because the Panthers ran out of healthy defensive backs on their final drive and physically could not play sub packages against a team clearly in pass mode. However, it wasn’t an unimpressive game. Of the Panthers’ 9 losses last…

Continue reading →: Minnesota Vikings: 2013 Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#28)
Last week: 25 On paper, almost beating the Bears is Chicago looks impressive, but consider that the Vikings lost despite winning the turnover battle, which only happens about 21% of the time. Christian Ponder didn’t have a bad game, completing 16 of 30 for 227 yards, a touchdown, and an…

Continue reading →: New York Jets: 2013 Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#29)
Last week: 29 It’s really early, but the Jets have the best defense in the NFL, by far, in terms of preventing their opponent from moving the chains. They’ve allowed just 51.2% of first and 10s to be converted for a subsequent first down. Getting Tampa Bay week 1 and…
