Let the standings determine your ranking while ESPN is busy blowing goats.....or something like that.

The only 2-3 teams ahead of us are the Bears, Jets, and Falcons. Who wouldn't rank them ahead of us with only a 1 game difference in record?

Considering how we've struggled to beat the teams on our early cake schedule (minus Buffalo) and have given Denver their only win in 5 games, I see no reason why we should be ranked ahead of any other 3-2 team. BTW, this coming off a week we gave up 20 points to one of the worst teams in the league that is also averaging a mere 9.8 ppg, not to mention had to use a 4th quarter comeback to win.

Looks about right to me.

there may be some over rated teams ahead of us, but the jets,bears, and falcons would most like give us trouble.

cowboys, titans, and bucs need to pull it together, but there is a chance they will.

I agree with everything you said here.

But still - Fuck ESPN.

We can win five more in a row and we would still be flying under the radar......

If the Steelers were 0-15, they would still be on the radar.

I would put the Jets behind us for sure. They look absolutely terrible. No part of that team looks better than ours.
