NFL Power Rankings

GM seems to be doing an excellent job at breaking down college football and ranking that top teams in the country. I do applaud you sir as you seem to be spot on.

I am going to start doing a top 10 but for the NFL instead of college every Tuesday. Lets see how it goes the first couple of weeks and then maybe I will start some divisional stuff and what not. Here we go!

After Week 3 top 10 (starting with 10, I love countdowns):

10. Washington Redskins - They play in the best division in football. Right now they are in last place but that doesn't mean anything. They would be the best team in some divisions and the second best in every other. This team has it together and look out if Jason Campbell really figures some stuff out.

9. Green Bay Packers - They would be like 3 or 4 if they would've beaten the Cowboys. They didn't and the game was at home. Ryan Grant really needs to start playing better at running back because Rodgers, Driver and Jennings are playing great. They defense is playing very good too but without a little ball control its hard to completely shut anyone down.

8. San Diego Chargers - I know, I know they are 1-2. They lost on a miraculous throw by Delhomme and then to the Broncos on 2 pt conversion. You will see that to me that is not a bad loss. They just beat the Jets last night big and Tomlinson isn't even full strength. Rivers has been great and I think this team will just keep moving up this list.

7. New York Giants - Eli is playing well and the defense is doing alright with all of their key losses. Its been a very work-man like 3-0. They barely beat a bad Bengals team at home in overtime. I may have them higher if they had a bigger win. They are good but not great yet. Brandon Jacobs needs to step up a little bit.

6. Pittsburgh Steelers - They would have been higher except the offense looked really bad against Philly on Sunday. Philly's defense is good but they made the offensive line of the Steelers look like high school players. Once they sure the line up they could move up this list.

5. Philadelphia Eagles - Again, the lost to Dallas is what has them outside the top 3. The offense looked great until Westbrook went down and then it went to hell. I know McNabb was hurt for a little bit in there too but 2 guys can't make that much a difference and you be a Superbowl caliber team. The defense is great and that puts them in the top 5.

4. Buffalo Bills - Sunday's win would have been a loss every year for the past 10. Not this year! The defense is playing great, Marshawn Lynch is a stud and Trent Edwards just manages the game. The special teams is back also. This is a team to really watch in the AFC as they could make a deep run into the playoffs. I like this team A LOT!

3. Tennessee Titans - Its crazy but this team really has no offense and they are winning games. Kerry Collins the quarterback. Chris Johnson is fast but he is still a rookie, and LenDale White still really fat and I don't know any of their wide receivers but they are 3-0. That shows how good this defense really is. Probably the best in the league and it wouldn't surprise me if it stays that way all season. This team is flat-out good!

2. Denver Broncos - 3-0 and really fun to watch. Jay Cutler is a great quarterback and Brandon Marshall may be the best receiver in the league. They have 3 running backs that are good I think and two good tight ends. That's a lot of weapons and oh don't forget Eddie Royal. The defense is another story but this team has shown they can win some shoot-outs and don't expect that to stop anytime soon.

1. Dallas Cowboys - This offense is just as good as Denver's and the defense is much better. This is the most complete team in the league right now. They have beaten two teams that are in my initial top 10. Marion Barber is a stud running back and that opens it up for Owens and Witten. I am sure they are going to lose a few games but it won't be many.

So there it is, my initial top 10. I think I did an ok job so look for again next week when I post a new top 10. There are a few teams on the brink of making it and bye weeks are starting so it could definitely fluctuate weekly.



GMs Thoughts:

I am not sure I agree with all your picks. Not necessarily who is in the top 10 but the order they are in. Tennessee and Buffalo have opponents that are a combined 5-12 through 3 weeks. That seems to explain their 3-0 starts. And the Broncos have gotten nothing but good breaks so far. And the Chargers have gotten nothing but bad breaks. But like I said....the list is fine....the order seems questionable to me.
