Continue reading →: Miami Dolphins at Arizona Cardinals: Week 4 NFL Pick
Miami Dolphins (1-2) at Arizona Cardinals (3-0) The Cardinals are 3-0 right now, but they’re incredibly overrated. Do you really trust anyone on this offense other than Larry Fitzgerald? The defense is great, but I don’t think they’re well rounded enough to make the playoffs in a loaded NFC. They…

Continue reading →: Cleveland Browns at Baltimore Ravens: Week 4 NFL Pick
Cleveland Browns (0-3) at Baltimore Ravens (2-1) Yards per play differential is my favorite single stat and right now, the Baltimore Ravens lead the league in it. However, as with any stat, you have to add a human element to it sometimes to interpret it. Baltimore’s defense, uncharacteristically, has been…

Continue reading →: Houston Texans: Week 4 NFL Power Rankings (#1)
Last week: 2 (+1) Record: 3-0 I’ve poked holes in pretty much every other team in the league. I can’t do that with this team. They are without a flaw. Winning in Denver in the high altitude against a talented team and a no huddle offense is damn impressive and…

Continue reading →: Atlanta Falcons: Week 4 NFL Power Rankings (#2)
Last week: 5 (+3) Record: 3-0 As many good teams as there are in the NFC, there isn’t a clear favorite. Maybe I just like poking holes in teams. Atlanta, however, is the best the NFC has right now and the favorite to represent them in the Super Bowl. The…

Continue reading →: Baltimore Ravens: Week 4 NFL Power Rankings (#3)
Last week: 13 (+10) Record: 2-1 The Ravens rank 1st in the league in yards per play differential, though you need to add a human element to stats sometimes. Their defense is not what it normally is and they’re clearly missing Terrell Suggs and others. The reason they rank so…

Continue reading →: Philadelphia Eagles: Week 4 NFL Power Rankings (#4)
Last week: 4 (+0) Record: 2-1 The Eagles have gotten killed with turnovers in their first 3 games, with a league worst -6 turnover ratio. However, that tends to even out on a week to week basis. This is still one of the most talented teams in the league and…

Continue reading →: New England Patriots: Week 4 NFL Power Rankings (#5)
Last week: 3 (-2) Record: 1-2 The Patriots are under .500 for the first time since week 1 of 2003, but they’ll be fine. Over the past couple of years, they’ve started a little sluggish and then hit their stride. This week, they go to Buffalo to face an old…

Continue reading →: Chicago Bears: Week 4 NFL Power Rankings (#6)
Last week: 8 (+2) Record: 2-1 The defense is playing great as usual, but the offense needs to come along. The offensive line is a major issue, but Jay Cutler needs to be able to succeed in spite of it if he’s going to be considered an elite quarterback. The…

Continue reading →: San Diego Chargers: Week 4 NFL Power Rankings (#7)
Last week: 7 (+0) Record: 2-1 So maybe these are the same old early season Chargers. They beat up on bad teams like last year, but got destroyed against a very good Falcons team. The good news is they should get better as the season goes on, as well, and…
