ESPN Power Rankings Week 1


Gazi

Recommended Posts

No problem with where we're ranked. We've got a lot of weaknesses(having a game like that from Newton and still losing proves that), but the Colts not being ranked #32 is a damn joke. They have a pathetically bad defense, the worst starting QB in the league, and a clueless head coach. They might as well let Peyton do the coaching from the sideline because he has more talent/creativity in his pinky than Jim Caldwell.

No one should expect a ton of movement from pre-season to week 1 power rankings. The thing about Week 1 is while some teams look awful and some look great, you don't want to read too much into anything either way just yet.

I understand that but to low ball the Bills all the while ranking the Cards at 16 smacks of cluelessness.

Yeah thats right, cluelessness:p

But the Cards moved up 5 spots by beating the so called "worst" team in the league by 7 points.

    • It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).   
    • Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️
    • It was always a matter of time with Cam’s playing style and a shorter shelf life than passers that protect themselves. I suppose Cam could have still been playing in 2028 ten years after the hit took place, but he would need to have evolved as a quarterback and become more of a passer than the dual threat maestro he was. It’s sad because it makes us think of what could have been, but I do feel it was always a matter of time until all the hits took their toll.
