33. The gridlock the GOP convention is bringing about next week here in the Twin Cities.

Did you forget about the Patriots or are you trying to make some kind of a "statement?"

Like the one where he stated the Tampa Bay Rays would be last in their respected division?

What part of sarcasm do you have no comprehension of? OBTW.....

6. New England Patriots

You weren't being sarcastic then, and please give me a Jags-Pats or Giants-Pats game Week 1. (Hell, Giants or Jags vs. any other team in your top 5, even though they won the SB)

Now I could have totally misread but are you saying the Jags couldn't beat anyone in his top 5?

No, they most definitely could, but I'm saying if they played one of those teams in just one game I would certainly bet on the other team. It has been proven, anyone can beat anyone and the Jags are certainly capable.

You list makes no sense. The Bears beat the Colts in Indianapolis, but they're worse than them? Is the top five thread? If so,

1. Dallas

2. Philadelphia

3. Pittsburgh

4. Denver

5. Buffalo

I guess I'm treating my rankings similar to how college football does theirs to start off the season.

But really though, there are no rules, so go ahead and rank 'em however you please.

Week 2

1. Pittsburgh (Easily the best performance of the week. What they did to an up and coming Texan defense was nothing short of brilliant)

2. Philadelphia (McNabb is back and guess what? He's got wideouts. Baskett, Jackson and Lewis all cracking 100, it looks like the one nagging issue has been solved)

3. Dallas (This is what a Super Bowl contender should do: Step it up against strong competition)

4. Chicago (Wait a second... The Bears scored 29 points? That's odd. What isn't odd is the return of that nasty defense)

5. Buffalo (Thanks to that beatdown of Seattle and Brady's ACL getting shredded like lettuce, the Bills may see a return to the glory days of the early 90's)

6. NY Giants (It wasn't the prettiest game of the week, but as long as you win, it doesn't matter how good it looks)

7. Indianapolis (OK. So that game can be chalked up to the rust on Manning, right?)

8. New England (Even when they do win, they still come out as the biggest loser of the week now that Brady is gone for the year)

9. Green Bay (No problem for Rodgers so far. Let's see how he handles a far weaker foe in the Kittens)

10. Baltimore (Flacco did just enough to make the Ravens look good against a somewhat hapless Bungals team)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

28. Cincinnati (Ocho Cinco looked like Ocho Stinko and Carson Palmer looked like freaking Rick Mirer out there. If only there was a cure for this debacle)

29. Detroit (I don't care who you are, you do not give up 220 yards to a man that was L.T.'s backup at San Diego!)

30. San Francisco (They looked bad against Arizona, and now they'll become fresh meat to an angry Seattle team)

31. Houston (That was pathetic, guys. They got ran over by a far more physical team)

32. St. Louis (What excuse are we going to see from rams80 after that horror show in Philadelphia? That was purely crap on even more crap topped with... You guess it, more crap)

[DarkJourney]

Don't forget to throw in the Seahawks in with the horseshi*t that is the Bengals, Lions, Rams, 49ers, Raiders & Texans.

[TFoA]

I'm not doing any sort of rankings until at least week 5. Then we'll have a feeling of who's gonna do what.

5. Green Bay

33. Torn ACL's everywhere
