1.    NY Giants (3-0)
Last Week – 1
It’s not too hard to beat the Bucs this season but blanking them without the help of Justin Tuck and Aaron Ross is just nasty.  I like how the Giants pulled the old, “We are beating you so badly, we are going to yank our starting QB” move, but you usually only see this move in the preseason or before the playoffs, not week 3. 

2.    Baltimore Ravens (3-0)
Last Week – 2
The Ravens continue to impress, however, just like the Giants, it’s not too hard to beat the Browns nowadays.  The notable stat here is that the Ravens racked up 488 yards of total offense.  This ain’t your mama’s Ravens team anymore. 

3.    Indianapolis Colts (3-0)
Last Week – 3
Finally, the Indy explosion I have been waiting for.  Manning’s 4 TDs went to 4 different receivers which makes this game even more impressive.  By the way, if you haven’t heard of Pierre Garcon, allow me to introduce you.  And “no” he’s not a fancy French restaurant. 

4.    New England Patriots (2-1)
Last Week – 7
It was nice to see Tom Brady lose his cool on the sidelines after a disastrous first quarter.  He even jawed a little bit at Bill Belichick which I found amusing.  Still, I don’t think I’ve ever seen Tom Brady act this way which leads me to believe that he’s either getting frustrated with himself or getting fired up.  Patriot fans are hoping for the latter and not the former. 

5.    Minnesota Vikings (3-0)
Last Week – 6
I’m sorry but I just can’t give Brett Favre to much credit for his game winning throw on Sunday.  All the media is fawning over him for a sensational pass, but all I saw was a forced pass that miraculous made it through the defense.  If anything, this was a phenomenal catch but that’s not what we hear about.  If we have to endure this type of fanfare every time Brett Favre does something positive, I’m going to vomit. 

6.    New Orleans Saints (3-0)
Last Week – 8
The Saints proved that they don’t need no stinkin’ Drew Brees to win their games for them.  Pierre Thomas showed up just in time to save the day for the Saints.  By the way, I think this is the first time in the history of the league where we saw to prominent players named Pierre.  Frankly, I like it. 

7.    NY Jets (3-0)
Last Week – 9
This team is playing with so much confidence, I almost think they have Tony Robbins kidnapped and stashed in their locker room.  Mark Sanchez is making great decisions and Thomas Jones is running well.  More importantly, their defense is flying around like maniacs. 

8.    Atlanta Falcons (2-1)
Last Week – 4
Time of possession really told the tale of their loss this week to the Pats.  The Falcons had the ball for only 20 minutes while the Pats had it for 40 minutes.  The Pats controlled the clock and the Falcons offense.  They are still a good team, but their defense needs to correct this glaring error.

9.    Philadelphia Eagles (2-1)
Last Week – 10
Kevin Kolb looked pretty decent in this game against the Chiefs, but of course, this is overshadowed by Michael Vick’s two incomplete passes.  As much as he doesn’t want to admit it, he’s nothing but a decoy and his presence is like parsley - just for show. 

10.  Pittsburgh Steelers (1-2)
Last Week – 5
The first half, the Steelers ran the ball great.  This translated to 13 easy Pittsburgh points.  The second half, not so much.  The running game was grounded and the Bengals took advantage.  Gotta fix this above all else.  

11.  San Diego Chargers (2-1)
Last Week – 12
Sproles was held in check but Philip Rivers continues to do dazzling things.  Looks like LT will be out again in week 4 which means that Sproles will again be featured.  Overall, I’m not sure what to make of the Chargers.  Yes, they’re 2-1 but their wins are against the Dolphins and Raiders.  This week against the Steelers should be a good measuring stick. 

12.  Chicago Bears (2-1)
Last Week – 14
If anyone has seen Matt Forte, please tell me - His Mama is worried about him.  I’m not sure if this week’s wins against the Seahawks happens if Matt Hasselbeck is in the lineup.  However, a win is a win and Jay Culter seems to be settling in nicely – like a old pair of shoes.  Yes, I just compared Jay Cutler to an old pair of shoes. 

13.  San Francisco 49ers (2-1)
Last Week – 11
The 49ers had the chance to ice this game if they only got a first down in the final two minutes, but they blew it.  In that respect, they deserve to lose, but I think this team is really good and has a lot to prove to Michael Crabtree.  Frank Gore’s injury is of major concern but Glenn Coffee seems to be fine with it. 

14.  Dallas Cowboys (2-1)
Last Week – 15
For three quarters Cowboys’ looked like garbage.  Who am I kidding, they looked like garbage for all four quarters.  They were lucky the that Panthers looked equally as bad otherwise, they lose this stinkfest.  I’m not sure what’s up with Tony Romo, but his decisions are poor and his throws are even worse.  Something’s got give. 

15.  Denver Broncos (3-0)
Last Week – 20
Fine…after three victories I will give the Broncos props.  BUT, the fact that the victories came against Cincinnati, Oakland and Cleveland is very, VERY shaky.  Things don’t get too much harder this week as the Cowboys come to town.  Yessir, this team is king of the crappers. 

16.  Green Bay Packers (2-1)
Last Week – 18
This Packers team get negative points for allowing Kyle Boller to throw 2 TDs against them.  Other than that, a pretty unspectacular win over Little Sister’s of the Poor in St. Louis.  Good news is that Ryan Grant almost broke 100 yards.  That’s something to celebrate right?

17.  Cincinnati Bengals (2-1)
Last Week – 22
It’s hard to believe that this team is one tipped pass away from being 3-0.  Still, you gotta love the fight that the defense has shown, not to mention that icy ropes that Palmer was throwing in the final second of the game.  This Bengals team has more moxy than any other I’ve seen in a long while. 

18.  Tennessee Titans (0-3)
Last Week – 13
Yes, they’ve had a tough first three games, but if the Titans were as quality as we thought they’d be, they would have pulled at least one out.  Perhaps we overestimated them?

19.  Arizona Cardinals (1-2)
Last Week – 16
Here’s a team I think we go just right – not quite good but not quite bad.  Once Manning started rolling in the second quarter, the Cards didn’t stand a chance.  Plus, three turnovers don’t help matters much either.  This team really needs a running game.

20.  Buffalo Bills (1-2)
Last Week – 17
I hate to pile on, but T.O. is just about to explode – and not in a good way.  Did you see that news conference?  The reporters were like blood in the water for T.O. trying to get him to attack.  This team will implode within the next three weeks, thanks to him. 

Oh, they get Marshawn Lynch back this week which is good. 

21.  Seattle Seahawks (1-2)
Last Week – 19
Julius Jones has been a surprising bright spot this season, but without Hasselbeck, this team will struggle.  Used to be that when you played in Seattle, you automatically lost.  Not so much anymore. 

22.  Jacksonville Jaguars (1-2)
Last Week – 27
They won but it took a superhuman 3 TD MoJo performance to pull it out.  I just find nothing interesting about this team at all.  Let’s move on. 

23.  Houston Texans (1-2)
Last Week – 21
Another week, another great performance by Matt Schuab.  Too bad the defense spoiled things for him.  The Texans just can’t seem to get over the hump.  This week against the Raiders, they might get some much needed confidence. 

24.  Detroit Lions (1-2)
Last Week -31
They won…let’s not jinx it!

25.  Oakland Raiders (1-2)
Last Week – 24
I’m going to do an about-face with Jamarcus Russell because he was just terrible against the Broncos at home this weekend.  With only 156 yards of offense, the Raiders nedd a bit more consistency on offense to balance out their better than average defense. 

26.  Miami Dolphins (0-3)
Last Week – 25
I honestly think that the Chad Henne era will be a good thing for the Dolphins.  Let’s face it, Chad Pennington was only a band-aid anyway.  I see a rejuvenated team in Miami from this week forward. 

27.  Carolina Panthers (0-3)
Last Week – 26
Jake Delhomme really needs to evaluate his life.  He can’t get this offense moving and he seems to be losing favor with Steve Smith, not to mention he’s about to get Jon Fox fired.  He’s like the football equivalent of a homewrecker. 

28.  Washington Redskins (1-2)
Last Week – 23
Rodney Harrison put it best when he said “Jason Campbell is a back-up quarterback that the Redskins keep trying to force as a starter.”  Yes!

29.  Kansas City Chiefs (0-3)
Last Week – 29
Cassel only managed 90 passing yards this week without Dwayne Bowe and next week ain’t looking any better.  This team is a mess, but at least they aren’t as bad as…

30.  Tampa Bay Buccaneers (0-3)
Last Week – 28
…these guys.  You wanna talk about a mess?!?!  Benching Byron Leftwich isn’t going to save this team Raheem.  Try harder.  

31.  Cleveland Browns (0-3)
Last Week – 30
I’m going to keep saying this until it changes: The Browns have only scored one offensive TDs so far this season. 

32.  St. Louis Rams (0-3)
Last Week – 32
Did you ever think you’d see Kyle Boller again?  Me neither, now I remember why.
