Continue reading →: New York Jets at New England Patriots: Week 7 NFL Pick
New York Jets (3-3) at New England Patriots (3-3) You gotta love the public overreaction with the Patriots. Last week, they were one of the best teams in the league. Now you get guys like Tony Dungy saying they’re “not very good” and an “average team” just because they lost…

Continue reading →: New Orleans Saints at Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Week 7 NFL Pick
New Orleans Saints (1-4) at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-3) The Saints got their first win 2 weeks ago at home on Sunday Night Football over the Chargers, but their problems are far from solved. They still have a horrific defense, which is a contributing factor to them ranking 26th in…

Continue reading →: Washington Redskins at New York Giants: Week 7 NFL Pick
Washington Redskins (3-3) at New York Giants (4-2) When I first saw this line, I instantly thought, trap line. The Giants were coming off a huge win in San Francisco and yet this line was suspiciously only at -7. My belief was furthered when the line started to actually fall…

Continue reading →: Chicago Bears: Week 7 NFL Power Rankings (#1)
Last week: 4 (+3) Record: 4-1 I normally don’t comment on teams on bye, but I feel like this ranking requires a write up. I didn’t want to put a #1 team because I don’t know if anyone is deserving of that title, but I had to and I think…

Last week: 1 (-1) Record: 5-1 Like I said, Atlanta might be better than Houston, but I needed an AFC representative in the top-2. Houston didn’t show up on Sunday Night Football. It happens to everyone. Everyone is allowed 1. You’d think they’d want to make a statement against the…

Continue reading →: Atlanta Falcons: Week 7 NFL Power Rankings (#3)
Last week: 2 (-1) Record: 6-0 I know what you’re thinking. Atlanta is the last undefeated team in the NFL. Why are they #3? Well, they simply haven’t been impressive enough. They haven’t beaten a single team with a winning record. They’ve won their last 3 games by a touchdown…

Continue reading →: Baltimore Ravens: Week 7 NFL Power Rankings (#4)
Last week: 3 (-1) Record: 5-1 The Ravens might have won the battle, but lost the war last week, losing Ray Lewis and Lardarius Webb for the season from an already struggling defense. They rank 22nd against the pass and 13th against the run already, which is unheard of for…

Continue reading →: New England Patriots: Week 7 NFL Power Rankings (#5)
Last week: 5 (+0) Record: 3-3 I already talked about the Patriots’ recent inability to close at length here so now I’ll focus on the good. They may be 3-3, but they’ve lost 3 games by a combined 4 points, all against good teams. The AFC sucks and the Patriots, given…

Continue reading →: New York Giants: Week 7 NFL Power Rankings (#6)
Last week: 13 (+7) Record: 4-2 The Giants making a big jump this week is more indicative about how tightly packed this league is than it is indicative of anything else. If they lose to an underrated Washington team who could easily catch them off guard this week off a…

Continue reading →: San Francisco 49ers: Week 7 NFL Power Rankings (#7)
Last week: 6 (-1) Record: 4-2 Last year, the San Francisco 49ers had a turnover differential of +28, 4th highest in NFL history. I said all offseason that would be unsustainable, mentioning that since 2002, teams with a turnover differential of +15 or more, on average, have a turnover differential…
