I never really post power rankings because I think they’re just stupid exercises. It really doesn’t matter who ranks where right now. What matters is what team peaks in January.
To be honest I don’t think the Patriots are the 3rd best team in the NFL right now. But I do think as this young defense gets more and more experience and continues to improve, they could be near the top by the end of the season. Then it’s just a matter of getting into the playoffs and making some noise.
Glad that we do get a shot a the #1 Jets and #2 Steelers though…
3. NEW ENGLAND (4-1)
Last week: 23-20 win vs. Baltimore.
The Cold, Hard Football Facts: The “Old School” Patriots started 12 players Sunday that had never been regular starters in the NFL before this season. That’s usually top-five-pick-in-the-draft stuff, not beat-the-Ravens stuff.
NFLN: Patriots vs. Ravens Preview
Before the season I truly thought the Chargers would be undefeated headed into this game with the Patriots. How could you not? At Chiefs, Jaguars, at Seahawks, Cardinals, at Raiders, at Rams…
So when you hear about how the Chargers are first in offense and defense it kinda makes sense that they should be. Granted the Chiefs are pretty good, but that game was in a monsoon. The Cardinals are the only team left in their opponents that have seen the playoffs recently and they’re a completely different team now.
So while I don’t doubt the Chargers are a good offensive passing team, I think their defense is getting a lot of help statistically by having faced really six bad offenses. I have a feeling this one is going to be back and forth.

“Going into the fourth quarter of the game, you could see the defense growing up,” Mayo said. “We’re getting better with some big stops in overtime. I know everybody who was watching as a spectator was like, ‘The Ravens are getting the ball back, probably won’t stop them, the game’ll probably be over.’ I’m sure you were one of those guys. But guys went out there and did an excellent job, making the stops when we need to.”
“This is a no-name defense. That’s how we like it. Let me say this, it’s getting better. It’s not where we want it to be, but it’s getting better.”

Woodhead, Welker and Edelman, the Chipmunk Package…

The 2018 offseason was workmanlike for the Patriots, sticking the same philosophy they’ve mostly gone with over the last 18 seasons. There wasn’t a seismic free agent pickup like Randy Moss or Darrelle Revis,, nor did they roll the dice on a former star veteran in search of a title like Chad Johnson, Albert Haynesworth, Fred […]
