The Sportsline one is laughable.
If I had to do my Power rankings, I would probably do this:
1)Pats
2)Chargers
3)Colts
4)Ravens
5)Bears
6)Saints
7)Broncos
Philly
9)Seattle
10)Dallas
I think anywhere from 3-8 can basically be flopped around depending on a few things.

Bears at 10 is funny... I think 4-5 is where they ought to be, but no way are they behind Dallas, New Orleans, and Phili.

Prisco's usually dependable; I don't know what the hell happened there.

Rankings were fair for the Redskins, though I have no clue why the Giants are ranked in the top 20 in each.

I thought they were going to be good last year but last year showed me they still have about 4-5 years until they make the playoffs.

You have to be an idiot to believe the Falcons are the 2nd worst team. We'll probably be pretty bad, but there will be at least 5 teams worse off.

The Falcons were never "awful" with a healthy Vick. They were 7-9, not great, but in the NFC South, not really awful either.

Well, they weren't good and now they have Joey Harrington as their QB.
Harrington is the luckiest man on the face of the Earth. No matter how bad he is he always seems to land in the right place.

Agreed, but I don't think Atlanta will be as horrible as some think, unless Petrino has screwed the running game.
If you play good D, and can run the ball, you can still be pretty productive.
Then again, you might be right, and they might win 3 games....

We weren't awful with Vick, we just choked hard against bad teams. We're 5-2 with wins over Pittsburgh, @Carolina and @Cincinnati, then go and lose to Detroit and Cleveland. 7-9 is still better than 9 other teams last year.
We lose Vick, but we gain a true offensive mind at coach, a better OL (thought not much better), and better receivers. Our defense should also be a lot better assuming we aren't destroyed with injuries again. Improvement on all three levels plus a worlds better defensive coach in Zimmer.
So yeah, you're really misinformed if you think we're going to be the 2nd worst team. I say we're in the 6-10/7-9/8-8/9-7 range.

You could have just said 6 to 9 wins, ya know.
