32. Arizona Cardinals
... They... They lost by thirty-five... at home... to the Broncos...
31. San Francisco 49ers
So without Jimmy Garoppolo, the 49ers nearly beat the Chargers, then nearly beat the Packers. Those two heartbreaking losses probably broke this team to it's core.
30. Buffalo Bills
Let's play a game. Which quarterback will throw an interception for the Bills next? Take a guess. Josh Allen? Nathan Peterman? Derek Anderson? Jake Delhomme? Brett Favre? Joe Namath? Steve Spurrier?
29. Oakland Raiders
This is a complete disaster. Move on please.
28. New York Giants
Even when New York teams are really bad we still have to hear about them endlessly, don't we?
27. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Now that there's no more Fitz Magic, they are who we thought they were.
26. Denver Broncos
Let's not buy into a thirty-whatever-point win over the Cardinals.
25. New York Jets
Sam Darnold and the Jets are getting better. Baby steps. Baby steps.
24. Jacksonville Jaguars
Where ya at now, Jalen Ramsey? Boy oh boy, we were all fooled big time by this team, weren't we? This team is super bad. You lost by 33 to Dallas? Dallas is horrible. How do you lose by 33 to Dallas?
23. Atlanta Falcons
Offense: Really good. Defense: MASH Unit.
22. Indianapolis Colts
The Colts are 2-5, but the schedule they have in front of them is unbelievably soft. Raiders, Jaguars (2x), Titans (2x), Dolphins, Texans, Cowboys & Giants. Are you serious?? They could legitimately finish 9-7 or 10-6!
21. Cleveland Browns
I feel like they play overtime every week. There's a future in Cleveland! That's good...
20. Dallas Cowboys
Oh, Dallas. Poor, poor Dallas. The most disappointing part is that we are forced to watch this team on TV all the time because the NFL insists on shoving the Cowboys down our throats.
19. Tennessee Titans
I find it to be very unfortunate that this offense is this bad with Marcus Mariota, Derrick Henry, Corey Davis, etc. But, they can still win the South, you know, because it's a horrible division.
18. Miami Dolphins
Talk about a team that I can't figure out. They look like world beaters one week and then horrific the next week. I have no clue what to expect from them week to week.
17. Seattle Seahawks
They are still really tough to be at home. That's getting them a few wins maybe they shouldn't have.
16. Houston Texans
After an 0-3 start, the Texans are looking really good. The AFC South is an absolute mess, they most certainly look like the best team in that division. How do they matchup with the other best teams in the AFC? Still to be determined.
15. Green Bay Packers
I feel like Aaron Rodgers is becoming the LeBron James of the NFL. People, including myself, keep saying he needs more help. Aaron Rodgers can't do it all.
14. Detroit Lions
This team is getting better and better each and every week. The offense is still as good as it always has been with Matthew Stafford, but the defense is growing into it's own. The NFC North is up for taking, so why can't they take it?
13. Philadelphia Eagles
Carson Wentz looks okay, maybe still feeling the affects of the injury that sidelined him for the postseason last year and the start of this season. But all in all, this offense still looks shaky at best.
12. Washington Redskins
As all NFC East teams are, they're nothing but a wild roller coaster ride that feels like is about to become unscrewed from it's hinges. With all of that said, the Redskins look like the team in that division that is the least bad. I don't quite think that's a compliment.
11. Cincinnati Bengals
I keep saying this, from 1-53, this roster is one of the best in the league. But of course, we're still waiting to see how Marvin Lewis screws it all up.
10. Pittsburgh Steelers
Pittsburgh is a weird team to figure out. They're still unpredictable and clearly they're still trying to figure things out without Le'Veon Bell. Big Ben is really carrying this team on his back as much as he possibly can.
9. Chicago Bears
This defense was already a top-five defense last year. Then they picked up Khalil Mack. Chicago is really good, and with a little better play from Mitchell Trubisky, they can definitely take advantage of division that's wildly unpredictable.
8. Minnesota Vikings
Kirk Cousins has done just enough for Minnesota to start the season. He's got great weapons on offense as well, and Adam Thielen is becoming one of the best receivers in the league. Defensively, it's hit or miss.
7. Baltimore Ravens
Baltimore has one of the best defenses in the league, and as they say, defense wins championships. Great defenses also travel. But, now more than ever, if the Ravens are going to be an actual contender, they have to get more consistent play from Joe Flacco.
6. Carolina Panthers
The Panthers, like a lot of teams, are very up and down. It's a roller coaster ride. When Cam Newton is on, he's unstoppable, but when he's a bit off, he's really off. They need Cam to play at least close to an MVP level to be where they were three years ago, a legit Super Bowl contender.
5. Los Angeles Chargers
The Chargers are certainly turning into the team we thought they would be. They dealt with key injuries to start the season. Now at nearly full strength, the Chargers look very, very good. Their Thursday Night showdown with in Kansas City in mid-December could be for the division title.
4. Kansas City Chiefs
I'm starting to fall out of love with the Chiefs a little bit. Again, just a little bit. Why? 5-1 is absolutely nothing to be ashamed of, but all of a sudden it's starting to look like a weak 5-1. On paper, the start of the season was supposed to be a tough schedule for KC. Instead, look who they've beaten. Chargers (Good win), Steelers (They're a mess), 49ers (Mess), Broncos (Bad), Jaguars (Horrific) and then they lost to the Patriots which was supposed to be the game where they would prove themselves.
3. New Orleans Saints
Drew Brees and this offense is sensational and the defense is light years better than what we seen in Week One against Tampa, that was definitely an anomaly rather than the norm.
2. New England Patriots
Tom Brady and the Patriots are back, folks. They're much better than the team that started the season. As we've heard for years now, the first three to four weeks of the season is basically an extension of the preseason for New England. They're clicking on all cylinders now.
1. Los Angeles Rams
The Rams are still unbeaten and look the part of being the best team in the league. Jared Goff, Todd Gurley and the group of receivers has this team looking like the Super Bowl favorites.
