Been really busy at work. It looks like Thursday are going to be the days I post this for the next couple of weeks.

Previous weeks ranking in parentheses.

1. (3) San Francisco 49ers - The 49ers look good. They need to convert better on third down, even though they got it done at the end of the game.

2. (2) Atlanta Falcons - If the defense can catch up to the offense, they will be almost unbeatable.

3. (5) Houston Texans - Foster and Tate are the best 1-2 RB combo in the NFL.

4. (12) Philadelphia Eagles - Despite the turnovers, Vick was able to lead them to a big win over Baltimore.

5. (13) San Diego Chargers - They put a beating on Tennessee. Mathews may be back soon and they will only get better.

6. (6) Green Bay Packers - Rodgers still doesn’t look like he did last year, but Cedric Benson is helping him out.

7. (4) Baltimore Ravens - Tough loss to the Eagles. Ray Rice only had 22 touches. They need to give him the ball more.

8. (14) Pittsburgh Steelers - They looked like themselves against the Jets. They are a tough team, as always.

9. (1) New England Patriots - Shocking loss to Arizona. They’re better than that.

10. (18) Arizona Cardinals - Surprisingly, they are 2-0 with a big upset win at New England last week.

11. (10) Denver Broncos - Were it not for 1 bad quarter, Peyton Manning might have them at 2-0.

12. (11) Detroit Lions - The defense just needed to make a couple of stops and they could have won.

13. (9) Chicago Bears - Tough loss to the Packers. Jay Cutler came back down to Earth.

14. (8) Dallas Cowboys - Big win Week 1, big loss Week 2. They need consistency.

15. (16) New York Giants - Their defense needs to get it together. They are much better than they are playing.

16. (17) Cincinnati Bengals - They did beat the Browns, but their defense looks very suspect.

17. (15) New York Jets - They should have saved some offense for Week 2.

18. (22) Seattle Seahawks - Their special teams came up big in the win against Dallas. Defense didn’t look bad either.

19. (21) Buffalo Bills - They were almost as good Week 2 as they were bad Week 1.

20. (25) Carolina Panthers - Newton played very well against the Saints, just like RGIII did the previous week.

21. (19) Washington Redskins - Losing Brian Orakpo for the season will hurt, but can RGIII do enough on offense to overcome that?

22. (7) New Orleans Saints - What happened to the Saints? If their defense doesn’t step up, it’s going to be a tough season for them.

23. (20) Tampa Bay Buccaneers - They played very well on the road. They may be better than expected.

24. (29) Indianapolis Colts - Andrew Luck will definitely lead this team to more than the 2 wins they had last season.

25. (28) St. Louis Rams - They’ve played well both weeks and could be 2-0. They’ll win some of the close ones if they can continue to stay in games.

26. (31) Miami Dolphins - Reggie Bush went off. If he continues to play like that, they will be better than expected.

27. (26) Minnesota Vikings - They kept it close against the Colts and came back strong late.

28. (23) Oakland Raiders - They got smoked by Miami. The offense looked bad.

29. (24) Kansas City Chiefs - 0-2 is not where they were expected to be. There is potential there, it’s just not showing up.

30. (27) Tennessee Titans - Wow. They keep getting blown out. If the D doesn’t improve, it’s going to be a long season.

31. (30) Jacksonville Jaguars - They looked really bad last week. They may take over the last spot soon.

32. (32) Cleveland Browns - They played well again, but ended up on the short end of the scoreboard.

Always a fun read. Seahawks destroyed the Cowboys and didn't get much love but I don't really know if they are that good or not.

Sad as it is to see my team so far down on the list, I agree with where they are listed.

San Diego is undefeated and playing well despite injuries. They deserve to be high on the list. Cleveland has played well, but lost both games. There is potential for them to move up, but they need to continue to improve while other teams continue to slide.

For Seattle, I am in the same boat. Great game against Dallas, but are they really that good?

Dan- It was tough to put the Saints so low, but I feel I have them just about right.

I'm surprised the Lions played so close. Assuming they weren't bone heads and didn't rough the kicker; they could have saved 4 points. Plus a missed field goal by Hanson would have made the game a one point win for SF.

Not bad for a road game. Better than GB showed at home.

Green Bay is still a powerhouse team that's better than the Chargers or the Eagles right now.

Can you explain to me how the Bears loss to the Packers last week was a "tough loss"? The Packers absolutely destroyed them at Lambeau, and put up 7 sacks and 4 pics.
