Thread: My own pre-2008 Season Power Rankings

I didn't find this on ESPN, so I decided to make up my own. This is my power rankings for the pre-2008 season (i.e. going into this season):


1. Patriots (I hate to do it, but I think it is true...)
2.Colts
3.Jaguars (A team on the rise)
4.Chargers
5.Giants
6.Redskins
7.Vikings
;D ;D
8.Seahawks
9. Cowboys
10. Buccaneers
11.Steelers
12.Packers
13.Titans
14.Browns
15.Cardinals
16.Texans
17.Saints
18.Bills
19. 49ers
20.Bengals
21.Broncos
22.Panthers
23.Lions
24.Eagles
25.Ravens
26.Bears
27.Chiefs
28.Rams
29.Jets
30.Falcons
31.Raiders
32.Dolphins

Not bad.. tad bit early with the draft upcomming and the annual post draft moves.. but not bad.

We fell all the way to 12 though.. come on give that Pack Defense a little credit.

not bad, but why not wait til another 3 days and do it after the draft???

That will work too. I am just not sure how much the draft will affect the rankings, though.

Normally I would have the Packers higher, but with Favre retiring, I think that justifies them dropping about 5 places in the rankings. With Favre in there, they should be at about nr. 8.

Skins are not better than the Cowturds...and the Pats won't be as good as last year...especially if they don't luck out like last year in avoiding the injury bug.

itll effect it more than u think
and i dunno how u have CLE and PHI so low, they are both gonna be playoff teams this year

Dude, it is Cleveland.... :

And I do think that the Iggles are basically done. I mean, they are an aging team. Yes, Westbrook is a stud, but what else do they have ? McNabb has gone from very good to just decent.

fixed for my opinion but pretty close.

cleveland is turning int quite the team.
They were one or two games short of making the playoffs, you can't discount that.
They added a couple more weapons.
I wouldn't be surprised if they won their division sometime in the next 3 years

Yeah its CLE....i said playoffs, not super bowl

WIth the eagles, their O might be getting older, but their D is very young besides B-Dawk, their team could be very scary in a tough division, they could have easily make the playoffs last year
