Continue reading →: Cincinnati Bengals: Week 5 NFL Power Rankings (#18)
Last week: 21 (+3) Record: 3-1 The Bengals have sufficiently proven they can beat up on crappy teams. Assuming Cleveland, Jacksonville, and Washington don’t make the playoffs and Baltimore does, the Bengals are now 12-0 against non-playoff teams since Andy Dalton took over week 1 last year. Unfortunately, they are…

Last week: 19 (+0) Record: 1-3 Last week, I said they were better than they looked against the Giants and they showed it against the Falcons, leading late and only losing by 2. Their decision not to go for the clincher and go for it on 4th down was head…

Last week: 19 (-1) Record: 1-3 Jake Locker looks like he’ll be out for a while. That’s not a huge loss because Matt Hasselbeck is a capable veteran backup who led this team to 9-7 last year. He might even be a better short term option. However, at 1-3, the…

Last week: 22 (+0) Record: 2-2 Despite their records, St. Louis and Arizona actually have the same yards per play differential. Neither has a very good one (tied with 27th with Oakland), but the Rams have a very good chance to knock off the undefeated Cardinals this Thursday Night, especially…

Continue reading →: Detroit Lions: Week 5 NFL Power Rankings (#23)
Last week: 23 (+0) Record: 1-3 I had the Lions as one of my disappointing teams to start the season and I’m feeling pretty good about that. Their special teams are a mess, having already allowed 4 special teams touchdowns this year, but special teams aside, they still rank 14th…

Continue reading →: Washington Redskins: Week 5 NFL Power Rankings (#24)
Last week: 24 Record: 2-2 The defense is still a mess and they don’t have a 1st round pick for the next 2 years to fix it, but Redskins fans have to be thrilled with Robert Griffin. They’d do that trade in a heartbeat again. Down 2 with under 2…

Continue reading →: Miami Dolphins: Week 5 NFL Power Rankings (#25)
Last week: 29 (+4) Record: 1-3 The Dolphins lost in overtime last week, but you could argue they should have won, on the road, against an unbeaten team. The Cardinals recovered all 6 of the fumbles that hit the ground and Miami averaged a whopping 6.5 yards per play, as…

Continue reading →: New Orleans Saints: Week 5 NFL Power Rankings (#26)
Last week: 26 (+0) Record: 0-4 The bad news is the Saints are 0-4. The good news is that they looked a lot better last week, going into Lambeau Field and playing a solid game in a close loss to the Packers. There’s understandably adjustment period to live without your…

Continue reading →: Kansas City Chiefs: Week 5 NFL Power Rankings (#27)
Last week: 27 (+0) Record: 1-3 After a 37-20 home loss to the Chargers, the Chiefs have now lost 12 of their 19 losses by 16 or more points since 2010. When it rains, it pours for this team and it definitely poured this week as they turned the ball…
