LETS ROLL OUT WEEK THREE WITH PLENTY OF CRAZY IN THE NFL AND ON OUR OWN PART INDEED.
#1.NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS 2-0 (SAME) Last week the Evil Empire wiped out another planet. As the death star struck a blast and wiped out all the Dolphin people on the planet Miami.
Since when do the Patriots have morals? They must have a set of standards to cut Antonio Brown as more women rise out of the woodwork to accuse the receiver of raping them. Perhaps New England has no way of covering this scandal up and had to cut ties before answering questions every day about RAPE GATE!!
#2.KANSAS CITY CHIEFS 2-0 (SAME) Patrick Mahomes is a one man army.
You can say like a young John Rambo just taking it to the enemy each week. The Chiefs have not been running the ball very well. They have some injuries with some of the play-makers. Great quarterbacks make whoever the play-maker is out on the field, much better. Mahomes is doing that. One key factor is the Chiefs defense is way better then it was to start the season last year. So far those defensive moves in the off-season seem to be working.
#3.BALTIMORE RAVENS 2-0 (UP 1 SPOT) Ravens have the number one offense in the league. They have the number two defense in the league as well. How is this possible? Playing the Dolphins inflates those numbers. Then the Cardinals, they came back down to earth but still won. I need to see the Ravens play a better team before I can judge this team fully. Week three Ravens versus the Chiefs will help me see whether these birds are a contender or a pretender.
#4.SEATTLE SEAHAWKS 2-0 (UP 7 SPOTS) Most of my top ten teams in last week’s power rankings fell like a house of cards. I like how Seattle flew to Pittsburgh and knocked off the Steelers. Taking out Big Ben helps. Pete Carol has that defense playing well. Then Russell Wilson reminds me of Derek Jeter of the Yankees. Hate the Yankees, but Jeter and Wilson can carry their team especially in big games. It’s all the little things Wilson does. Things that are not in stat sheets.
Russell Wilson is not your typical fantasy football quarterback unless wins count. One week he can toss for over three hundred yards. Next week he can just toss for 150. Seattle won on the road and if they do that regularly, this team with the changed landscape in the NFC, with key injuries, they might come out as one of the top two teams when it comes to the playoffs.
#5.GREEN BAY PACKERS 2-0 (UP 7 SPOTS) Packers are another team that made a sudden jump. I might have to say the Packers defense is definitely legit. Against the Bears I thought it was just bad quarterbacking. Then they shut down a high power offense in the Vikings last week. Vikings offense rolled in week one like a well oiled machine. Of course they have Aaron Rodgers on offense. When is the football agent in those Aaron Rodgers State Farm commercials going to throw the insurance agent off the top of the building?
RELEASE THE MAYHEM ALREADY !!!!
#6.DALLAS COWBOYS 2-0 (UP 2 SPOTS) So far so good if you like the Cowboys. They have looked really good the first two weeks. They have played nothing but cream puffs.
That’s the way to sell your team performance revenge of the nerds style. Enjoy a cream pie and find a naked cheer leader on the plate. Have a few pies and fans will not doubt you as you played the Giants and Redskins, now on deck are the Dolphins. Jerry Jones spinning things in Dallas. When they finally play somebody, that’s when I want to see if these Cowboys are… HOW ABOUT THOSE COWBOYS!!!
#7. LA RAMS 2-0 (UP 2 SPOTS) When you shoot a zombie in the head it goes down. When you mangle the Saints quarterback, Drew Brees, the whole operation falls apart. For sure I thought the Rams would be beaten like an Adrian Peterson kid last Sunday. Rams early on are showing they are still an elite team. I thought they would have a hiccup this season. I loved how the Rams played most of the season last year. Then at the end they looked sketchy. I thought they should have been beaten by the Saints in the championship game. As most thought, the Rams mugged their way into the big game. Can you forgive me for doubting your team?
#8.MINNESOTA VIKINGS 1-1 (DOWN 3 SPOTS)
In the loss to Green Bay, I see another weapon emerging to the table. Don Beebe’s son Chad. Minnesota already has Adam Thielein and Stefon Diggs. With Beebe emerging this is a very nice receiving core Vikings have established. Vikings dug themselves a hole early last week and could not quite fully comeback but made a game out of it going down 21-0. Vikings have a ton of talent on both sides of the football. It will all depend on how Kirk Cousins does. One week he looks to be one of the best in the league. The next week he’s average. He might be just awful this weekend.
#9.LA CHARGERS 1-1 (DOWN 2 SPOTS) Chargers again having kicking problems. Kicking woes that cost them last week versus the Lions. Both the Lions and Chargers like to beat themselves so you’d figure this game would end in a tie. With all the talent on both teams, the Chargers took a step back last week from not converting on special teams. It’s a shame because I’ve noticed many X Charger kickers in the AAF that were not too bad. Yes, they had problems because that’s why they went to the AAF in first place. Chargers need to hire a soccer dude to solve their problem in the kicking game that has lingered more than one season.
#10.NEW ORLEANS SAINTS 1-1 (DOWN 7 SPOTS) With Drew Brees out with an injury, does this derail the Saints team in 2019? Could Teddy Bridgewater ride the ship and buy enough time for the Saints to hold down the fort while they wait for Brees to heal? It will not be pretty. It will probably be very ugly. The Saints will tread water and still have a chance when Drew returns.
#11. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES 1-1 (Down 5 spots) The Eagles were running down the road and had seven women on their minds before they made their comeback versus the Redskins. Then the Falcons stung them last week on Sunday night. Lots of injuries the Eagles suffered as well. Will this Nick Foles off-season move haunt this team even though he was injured in week one with the Jaguars? Carson Wentz needs to have a big game. He needs to take this team on its back and show the Philadelphia and Eagle nation he is the guy. He can’t be the Eagle man showing his low rates.
#12.CHICAGO BEARS 1-1 (UP 1 SPOT) DA BEARS only moved up one spot. I am scratching my head with such a drastic move. However they need to iron out things versus the Redskins to get on the right track. If they falter or have obvious problems then it will be a long season. It’s not the kicker. We know it’s not the defense. Mitch Trubisky’s arm is what we are questioning along with Matt Nagy’s War and Peace playbook that is not cutting the mustard.
#13. INDIANAPOLIS COLTS 1-1 (up two spots) Colts get on the winning side of things and even their record up at 1-1 versus the Titans. We do not know what the Titans are. Is it the team that beat up on Cleveland? Or did the Browns give the Titans that game gift wrapped. We do know the Colts even without Andrew Luck. This team is still good. They are not going away.
#14.HOUSTON TEXANS 1-1 SAME I think I was more impressed with the Texans loss to the Saints than their first victory versus the Jags last week. Sometimes you have to have win UGLY to get on the board.
#15.SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS 2-0 (UP 2 SPOTS) The 49ers are undefeated. Jimmy Garroppolo is still standing. He is not out for the remainder of the season.
49ER NATION IS WATCHING JIMMY…. Hoping Jimmy can play the whole season. If he can they might be in the thick of things when it comes down to the playoffs.
#16.CLEVELAND BROWNS 1-1 (SAME) Browns finally win… A game that if they lost would be more problems than Lebron going to south beach. If you would of lost to the Jets, the league would have kicked the Browns out. It would been justified even to Browns fans. Odell Beckham Jr. the dog he is made a nice grab on MONDAY NIGHT!!!
#17.BUFFALO BILLS 2-0 (UP 1 SPOT) CONGRATULATIONS THE BUFFALO BILLS ARE KING OF NEW YORK WITH A SWEEP OF THOSE JERSEY SHORE TEAMS!!! Love that defense !!!
#18.TENNESSEE TITANS 1-2 (DOWN 7 SPOTS) Titans are back down to earth with a loss to the Colts. Week one, the big win versus the Cleveland Browns looks more like a fluke than anything. Now the countdown to Jay Fielder the back up quarterback to take over is officially started. Then you get beaten by the Jags on Thursday with a rookie quarterback.
#19.ATLANTA FALCONS 1-1 (UP 6 SPOTS) In week one the dirty Birds were left for dead on the highway of life. The Vikings crushed them. In week two they take down the Eagles in a song of desperado. They then see Drew Brees is out for weeks with an injury. The tale of two weeks. Atlanta fans and Falcons players are no longer walking the ledge in their zombie state.
#20.TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS 1-1 (SAME) Since the Buccaneers won their first game in the second Thursday game of the season, I did not have the heart to move them out of their 20th spot. The next power rankings though I will move them probably in the back where they most likely will fall.
#21.OAKLAND RAIDERS 1-1 (DOWN 2 SPOT) Raiders are another team that came back down to earth with their first win in the opening week. Kansas City will do that to many teams in the league. However Chucky and Raiders nation, they did not look terrible in their first loss as you pointed that out in several games last season.
#22.JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS 1-1 (SAME) Jaguars finally get a win and it was done with a rookie quarterback. Are the Titans just a bad football team? Or was it just a short week that gave the Jaguars their first victory of the year. We know it was not the head coach.
#23.ARIZONA CARDINALS 0-1-1 (DOWN 2 SPOTS) We know the Kyle Murray ERA came back down to earth. However the Ravens did not win over the Cardinals in a big score. Who knows what we will see each week with Kyle Murray. Next week might be the first win ever for the young rookie. Cardinals as a team are not bad. Kyle Murray will be interesting player to watch week to week. Wins will appear at some point for the red birds.
#24.DETROIT LIONS 1-0-1 (UP 7 SPOTS) Lions OH MY… Big upset in week two over the Chargers. This does not shock me. Lions are notorious for winning big games with upsets early in the season at home. Remember the Patriots last year. They had a victory in week one which they let the Cardinals sneak back into the game and settled for the tie.The Lions are still UNDEFEATED in the NFC CENTRAL. Only the Lions and Packers can say that.
#25.CAROLINA PANTHERS 0-2 (DOWN 2 SPOTS) Cam Newton is at the bottom of the cookie jar crumbled up hurt and ready to be discarded in the trash. If you’re a Panther fan. If you’re head coach Ron Rivera, you are praying.
Panthers need Kyle Allen to save this franchise. To save Ron Rivera’s job. If Kyle Allen comes in and does well what would this do to Cam Newton? Can you trade him? Hope no teams I like would take him. Give his stench to the Packers most might agree with that. The Panthers defense is really good. If this kid just stays away from the Newton bone headed mistakes this can work. We do not know how this will play out. It could be the miracle in Charlotte. Or the dark clouds will continue to follow the Panthers.
#26.CINCINNATI BENGALS (0-2) (DOWN 2 SPOTS) Fool me once, but you will not fool me again. Bengals looked well in week one. They played in Seattle and lost by one point. Then at home they turn into a pumpkin at high noon and implode with a dud versus the 49ers. The bumbles have no running attack. The defense can not get off the field. The Red rifleman Andy Dalton also has injuries to some of his play makers. It’s quite the same recipe for Skyline Chili, put it in the blender. Hard to say they have something working at this time.
#27.PITTSBURGH STEELERS (0-2) (DOWN 1 SPOT) Steelers got rid of their trouble makers in Bell and Brown. Now the collapse of Big Ben crumbling down on the Steelers carpet and out for the season. If I was the Steelers, don’t stop. Put head coach Mike Tomlin on the chopping block, another one that needs to be shown the door. If Mason Rudolph shows you something this season at quarterback, in for Big Ben. It’s time to get rid of Big Ben Roethlisberger in the off-season. Go back to the drawing board. Find a head coach that can create a great defense that Steel-town has been missing for a very long time. If Rudolph is the man, he has some nice play makers around him to get this rebuild done very quickly.
#28.DENVER BRONCOS 0-2 (DOWN 1 SPOT) Broncos held their own versus the Bears last week in a game of yellow flags. Bears offense is struggling, nothing to write home about because you stopped them most of the game. Bears still got the last laugh with the game winning kick at game regulation. Broncos offense with Joe Flacco is sputtering like Al Bundy’s old dodge on life support.
Broncos need a quarterback to get hot like her.
THAT’S THE KEY TO THE SUPERBOWL HOT!!!!
#29.WASHINGTON REDSKINS 0-2 (SAME) I kept the Redskins in the same spot because they were the same team they were in week one, that they were in week two. They can not play the full 4 quarters of a game. They play a decent half. They take the next half off for whatever reason. The defense is struggling. Case Keenum is driving the car on flat wheels when it comes to the offensive side of things. When are they going to switch their quarterback? Maybe wait after you play the Bears. That did not work well for Josh Rosen when he played for the Cardinals and got his feet wet versus the monsters of the midway.
#30.NEW YORK JETS 0-2 (DOWN 2 SPOTS) You can probably argue on your bar stool about which New York City team is worse. Each person would have a valid point. Jets defense can actually tackle somebody. However the Jets are thin at quarterback as Sam Darnold is out with mono, some would say the kissing disease.
Perhaps Sam Darnold is a boob man and did not see her eyes. Did not notice her lips. The lips that would cripple your football season. Where’s back up Josh McCown? He retired and then the Eagles convinced him to come back. Now the Jets are flying broken down Mig 16’s, not their usual F-15 fighter Jets. It will be years before they become Stealth like.
#31.NEW YORK GIANTS 0-2 (DOWN 1 SPOT) This team has no defense to stop the other team. The offense is sputtering so they are benching their legendary quarterback, Eli Manning. Manning is happy about the decision. He will not waive his no trade clause. He stays with the team as a back up. Like all big companies, he trains his own replacement. Meanwhile Daniel Jones gets his first NFL start this weekend. If you’re a Giants fan, the only good thing you can say he has some interesting weapons around him. Playmakers which can help his development faster.
#32. MIAMI DOLPHINS 0-2 (SAME) What would you be excited for in Miami after two weeks of humiliation on the field? First pick in the draft next season. Plus you get first pick in the waivers and maybe find some gems from other teams throwing out scraps of players they don’t want.
To be a a bum in Miami is like the big show in the homeless world. But the bums in Miami found their defensive savor Taco Charlton bringing his talents to South Beach after being dumped in recycling by the Dallas Cowboys.
The Wild shamrock
