Week 5 power rankings?

NFL.com has us at 18

 

 

Nice to see 2013's surprise team get back on track in front of the home folk, particularly with regard to the defense, which forced multiple Bears turnovers in Sunday's clutch win. Trying to find someone other than Cam Newton to run the ball effectively is still an issue. It's gotten so bad that fantasy owners are picking up Stephen Davis on the waiver wire .

That was a gutsy win on Sunday. There are a few issues still, but they overcame a lot of it with toughness. And a great quarterback.

Two blowouts will make everyone lose faith in your team.

 

 

 

Beat the Bengals and the Panthers will be reported as a top 10 team again.

Why are the Lions and Chiefs higher than us? It should be common sense, if two teams have the same records, the team that beat the team should be ahead of them in the power rankings

[Semaj]

A first place team ranked 18. That is amusing.

It doesn't work like that. It'd be impossible because if Team A beat Team B, and Team B beat Team C, but Team C beat Team A, then you would have to put A above B and B above C and C above A.

If you put B above C, it would also be above A, but A beat B. You can't put C on the bottom because C beat A.

Only in the NFCS would this team be in first outright. That's how bad the division is this year.

Look at the division we're in... Panthers are the only team with a winning record.

Im only talking about if team A and team B both have the same record and Team A beat Team B then team A should be ranked higher than team B

I love the disrespect @18th,it suits the Panthers well,also getting disrespected are the Texans 21st and Bills 22nd both are also 3-2!

this just means we suck ass and good seasons are deviations from the norm. why would anyone want that?
