6) Carolina Panthers: Cam Newton, Jonathan Stewart & Greg Olsen

Preseason rank: No. 9

Remember when everyone buried Carolina after the Kelvin Benjamin injury? No slight to Stewart or Olsen, who've picked up the slack, but Cam's got this team at 7-0 with Ted Ginn Jr. and Philly Brown as his starting WRs. Numbers be damned: He's only behind Brady in the MVP race.

Don't really have a problem with our ranking, but GB at #2 is a joke.  Yea, Aaron Rodgers but Lacy and Cobb have been hot garbage.

Not sure I agree with the Packers being ranked that high. Only reason I can think for them being rated that high is name value, because even with Rodgers play this season, Lacy and Cobb have both been fairly pedestrian. When you look at the other triplets: Palmer is having a career year, CJ2K looks revived, and Fitzgerald is on pace for a career year; Dalton is having a big year, Gio is running well, and AJ Green is a stud; and Ryan is playing well, Freeman leads the league in rushing, and Julio is having a huge year. All three teams triplets should be ranked ahead of the Packers. And an argument could be made for our triplets to be ranked ahead of them on the basis that Cam v Rodgers is even, but Stewart and Olsen v Lacy and Cobb comes out in our favor. 

For me, it should be 1. Pats, 2. Cards, 3. Bengals, 4. Falcons, 5. Panthers, 6. Packers.

    • I'm not sure that in a fair QB competition that Young would beat out Jones.  
    • That's why I said stats aside. I lived in CO during Allen's college career and didn't have kids at the time so I watched most of his games. Bruh, I'm telling you. Balls just spraying all over the place. The type of throws where you're honestly trying to figure out who he was even trying to throw that one too. It was crazy. Richardson was inaccurate in college but at least you could tell who he was trying to throw it too. He threw a lot of early in the game Cam Newton type balls where it seemed like he was just a little too amped up and everything was a few feet high. Richardson's misses looked like they were maybe fixable with working on his footwork, release, etc. Josh Allen's misses looked like "ain't no way you're fixin' that poo, dude has a cannon equipped with no sights". LOL Huge props to the Bills for evaluating him as fixable and indeed fixing him.
    • A lot can change over the next week, but here is my best 53-man roster (note: I'm just basing this on guys on the 90 man roster currently). Obviously there could be trades/ waiver claims/ FA signings.   Offense (25) QB (2): Bryce Young, Andy Dalton RB (3): Chuba Hubbard, Rico Dowdle, Trevor Etienne TE (4): Tommy Tremble, JT Sanders, Mitchell Evans, James Mitchell WR (7): Tetoria McMillan, Xavier Legette, Adam Theilen, Jalen Coker, Hunter Renfrow, Jimmy Horn, Brycen Tremayne  OL (9): Ikem Ekwonu, Damien Lewis, Austin Corbett, Robert Hunt, Taylor Moton, Cade Mays, Chandler Zavala, Brady Christensen, Yosh Nijman    Defense (25) DL (6): Derrick Brown, Bobby Brown, Ashawn Robinson, Tershawn Wharton, Sam Roberts, Cam Jackson OLB (5): DJ Wonnum, Pat Jones, Nic Scourton, Princely Umanmielen, Thomas Incoom  ILB (5): Trevin Wallace, Christian Rozeboom, Krys Barnes, Jon Rattigen, Claudin Cherelus S (4): Trevon Moehrig, Demani Richardson, Lathan Ransom, Nick Scott  CB (5): Jaycee Horn, Mike Jackson, Chau Smith-Wade, Corey Thornton, Shemar Bartholomew    ST (3): LS: JJ Jansen  P: Sam Martin  K: Matthew Wright    Would like to hear everyone's thoughts
