Continue reading →: San Francisco 49ers: Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#9)
Last week: 13 (+4) Record: 2-0 I still don’t think this team is much of a Super Bowl threat because eventually the turnover differentials will…blah blah blah regression I’m done repeating myself. Let’s focus on something positive, namely this amazing defense. This was Jim Harbaugh’s first full offseason with this…

Continue reading →: Denver Broncos: Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#10)
Last week: 9 (-1) Record: 1-1 I have a feeling the Broncos are going to be one of those teams with big home/road disparities in their records this season. They have a huge advantage at home, running the no huddle against defenses not used to playing in the thin air,…

Continue reading →: St. Louis Rams: Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#11)
Last week: 11 (+1) Record: 1-1 Every year, there is one team that goes from 5 wins or fewer to the playoffs. I have a feeling that it’s going to be an NFC team this year, either the Rams, Redskins, or Buccaneers. I’m sticking with my preseason prediction here and…

Continue reading →: Buffalo Bills: Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#12)
Last week: 21 (+9) Record: 1-1 This is why you don’t bail on predictions after one game. I had the Bills making it into the playoffs on the good defense, good running game, conservative offense, don’t make mistakes, easy schedule model, but after their week 1 loss, I overreacted and…

Continue reading →: Baltimore Ravens: Week 2 NFL Power Rankings (#13)
Last week: 14 (+1) Record: 1-1 The Ravens are overrated. We’ll see it this weekend. They rank just 12th in yards per play differential, despite playing one of their games against a banged up Bengals team that I think is one of the worst in the league. They clearly miss…

Continue reading →: Washington Redskins: Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#14)
Last week: 16 (+2) Record: 1-1 There’s nothing wrong with losing by 3 to the Rams in St. Louis. I’ve said all along the Rams are underrated and the Rams and Redskins are pretty evenly matched. The bad news is on the injury front. The Rams lost three starters in…

Continue reading →: Dallas Cowboys: Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#15)
Last week: 15 (+0) Record: 1-1 Coming off an emotional week 1 win, it was reasonable and predictable that the Cowboys would be flat in Seattle. However, they wouldn’t have even won week 1 if it wasn’t for Tony Romo bailing them out time after time, in spite of all…

Continue reading →: New Orleans Saints: Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#16)
Last week: 7 (-9) Record: 0-2 Now it’s time to start pressing the button panic. The Saints haven’t been eliminated or anything, but they’re 0-2 and only 12% of teams that start 0-2 make the playoffs. They’ll get better as the season goes on as they get used to not…

Continue reading →: New York Giants: Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#17)
Last week: 18 (+1) Record: 1-1 I already talked about how much of a disadvantage the Giants have this week as a road team on Thursday Night football, so I’ll say something about the Buccaneers/Giants game that I didn’t have room to say in the Buccaneers’ section. I agree with…

Continue reading →: Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Week 3 NFL Power Rankings (#18)
Last week: 17 (-1) Record: 1-1 The Buccaneers have the league’s worst 2.2 yards per differential, allowing 7.2 yards per play and gaining 5.0 yards per play. So how are they 1-1 with a close loss to the Giants? Well, having the 2nd best turnover differential in the NFC, +3,…
