Here are my rankings

1. Carolina panthers 

2 - 32

Lot of people sucking the Packers and Steelers dicks. Both teams barely won. The steelers needed a heroic performance from Antonio Brown to beat the freaking Browns and the Packers got a huge home field bullshit call on that pick 6 coming back for the Seahawks and it being a totally different game. 

Feels a lot like 2015 starting with some trash opponents then beating a Super Bowl team in their house to become "legit"

Ive been thinking the same thing. The Falcons should have been running up the score on the Bears. instead, if any one of the three receivers Glennon threw to those last 4 plays near the endzone had caught the damn ball, the Falcons would be 0-1 right now with an embarrassing loss to the lowly Bears. in fact, i'd go so far as to say that its just as embarrassing. the Falcons did literally nothing to keep themselves from losing. The Bears just decided to go full Bear at the wrong time. 

Agreed. Preconceived notions are never quickly erased. Atlanta should have lost that game.

Fuggin Tampa hasn't even played a game and their still ahead of us. And Atlanta averaging at 4 is dumb. 

I think they shouldn't be able to start with a set power ranking going into week one. And should have to come up with the ranking based on actual football.

Forget power rankings, I'm gonna need you guys to feed Johnathon Stewart this week, and let McCoy run wild....you can win the game, but I need a big performance from Shady.

We were like 10-0 and 11-0 in 2015 and there were still plenty of polls that had 2-loss Arizona ranked ahead of us. Putting us at the bottom or very near the bottom of the pack everyone else our record has has happened literally since I started looking up power rankings like 14 years ago.

Beating the poo out of AZ that year was easily of my all time favorite Panthers moments.

Probably that crappy luck all things NC State have always had in recent memory attached to Glennon and rearing it's ugly head at the worst time for us.
