The Bills figured out how to defend the Brady-less Patriots, so Denver now has the top spot in the AP's NFL Poll. I'm pretty sure this is the first time Oakland has made the top 10:
1. Denver Broncos: 4-0
2. Minnesota Vikings: 4-0
3. New England Patriots: 3-1
4. Philadelphia Eagles: 3-0
5. Seattle Seahawks: 3-1
6. Pittsburgh Steelers: 3-1
7. Green Bay Packers: 2-1
8. Atlanta Falcons: 3-1
9. Oakland Raiders: 3-1
10. Baltimore Ravens: 3-1
The Redskins (2-2) moved from 20th to 19th with their win over Cleveland; the Dolphins (1-3) remained at 26th after losing the Thursday night game in Cincinnati. Meanwhile, the wheels have fallen off for the Panthers (1-3, 16th) and Cardinals (1-3, 20th), who were supposed to repeat their strong showing from last year. Personally, I don't miss them at all.
This week the number-1 Broncos are hosting the number-8 Falcons in the 3 o'clock slot on Sunday. That is the only game featuring top-10 teams this week, so you will be free to enjoy the baseball playoffs, which should be excellent.
The Patriots are cheaters.
ReplyDeleteMabel and I were watching the Red Zone yesterday and she said "I don't like the Broncos and I know there is one team that cheats." I said "that's right honey, the Patriots."
DeleteShe's right about the Broncos, too.
