I'm not sure if I should consider this good news or a jinx.

Power Rankings: Brady buoys Pats, but Philly's coming fast

On a side note and twist of recent history, Steelers and their fans who read this column are surely pounding their fists and playing the disrespect card.

HEY BRO! WHAT UP?

The Steelers are lucky to be #2. They have nothing to whine about. In fact, the only reason they made it to the super bowl is because Brady didn't play the entire season. The only reason they won the super bowl is because Plaxico Burress decided to shoot himself in the leg. The Giants were clearly the super bowl favorites before Plaxico left the team. I can't wait to see New England smack around the Steelers in January.

124

As long as TBrades is on the field, New England is the best team hands down.

However, 21? Below Buffalo? Give me a break.

BTW, "HEY BRO, WHAT UP?".. Awesome signature, that is my favorite show by far!

I have them ranked quite a bit differently at the top. I know it's early, but that's why we make lists....

Patriots
Eagles
Steelers
Giants (Will hop over the Steelers and Eagles if they get Edwards from Cleveland)
Chargers
Colts
Panthers
Falcons
Saints
Cowboys

Bonus notes:
1.) The Vikings could possibly jump into the top 10 if they signed Favre
2.) I could easily be convinced that the Falcons and Saints could flip flop
3.) I'm not particularly firm on any team below the Panthers being a top 10 team.
4.) When I break it down, I just can't put the Cardinals in the top 10. Strange...

He's basing it largely on the rookie QB 'problem'.

Argh. Why can't we just be the underdogs again?

They're worse than a 1:1 favorite (4:1 as I recall). I'm sure that'll be disrespect enough once Belichick is through with them.

Lots of people getting excited about the Eagles and how they will take over the NFC East. The Eagles lost Sheppard and Dawkins, which are huge voids to fill. I expect them to give up lots of plays in the passing game. PHI may score alot, but they will give up lots too. They will be the NFL's version of the Golden State Warriors. They will keep the fans interested though, but heartbreak will be expected as playoff games are always won in the trenches.

I don't consider Sheppard a huge void at all. Dawkins was a tough loss though, I'll give you that. I just think that they've enough to compensate for it. They signed Jones to replace Dawkins, upgraded their offensive line with Peters and Andrews, got themselves a real between-the-tackled sort of runner and added another wideout to the stable.

I could be wrong. I could change my mind in the next 4+ months.... it's early.

I don't know how he ranks the Saints above the Chargers. How many years in a row are we going to hear about New Orleans' improved defense, and then see them once again fail to stop anybody?
