NFL '13 Power Rankings

[Cujo]

Bringing back our version of the NFL Power Rankings this season. I'm just gonna keep it simple with "the five" best and honorably mentioning the league's worst.

NFL WEEK 1 FINAL

1. Denver Broncos

2. San Francisco 49ers

3. Houston Texans

4. New England Patriots

5. Seattle Seahawks

32. Jacksonville Jaguars

Still hard to base anything on Week 1.

1- NE was losing late in the 4th, as was HOU.

2- DEN still has the Von Miller suspension to deal with on the defensive side.

3- Defenses were schemed for the Week 1 opponent since April, not for Week 5.

4- Injuries.

Does dfwabel mean "wet blanket" in like some weird alien language?

[TheFuture]

I disagree with the positioning of some of these lists. Here's how I have it up after two weeks, basing it only on teams' play up until this point:

1. Broncos-They've drubbed their first two opponents; +40 point differential is best in league

2. Dolphins-Starting 2-0 with both wins on the road is very impressive

3. Chiefs-One of two teams with no turnovers; played well in their first two games

4. Bears-Can still force turnovers with the best of the league; six takeaways is tied for second-best (Broncos are first)

5. Seahawks-Needed a late Panthers fumble to win the first game, took apart 49ers

...

32. Redskins-Worst defense in the league thus far; can only generate offense when games are out of reach

Giants at 19? they should be 29th or 30th considering how bad they got now.

[Russian Penguin]

forgot;

JAX @ SEA (32 @ 1, a drubbing, the spread should be no less than 24 points in this one).

[Rockstar Matt]

Yeah, I'm a huge Cowboys fan, but we're not the 3rd best team right now. Probably around the 13th to 16th best.

1. Seattle

2. Denver

3. San Francisco

4. Green Bay

5. Houston.

32. Jacksonville

[Russian Penguin]

Those predictions above are 75% correct so far. Didn't foresee BAL>HOU or CLE>MIN.

I'll give the secret formula to anyone who wants it.
