We have a top 10 match to open the season tonight, with the number 1 Chiefs hosting the number 10 Lions. The Game of the Week is probably the Sunday Afternoon matchup with the number-9 Chargers hosting the number-6 Dolphins. Presumably Channel 6 will have Charlie Jones doing the play-by-play on that one, with some Channel 6 local news at the half.
Since the AP stopped its Pro32 rankings, I'm going with ESPN's rankings. Here's their top 10:
ReplyDelete1. Kansas City
2. Philadelphia
3. Cincinnati
4. San Francisco
5. Buffalo
6. Miami
7. Dallas
8. Baltimore
9. San Diego
10. Detroit
The Commanders are number 25. No love for the Commanders.
