September 16, 201412 yr 1. Seattle Seahawks (No. 1 last week; 1-1): They lost in San Diego. I guess that means they now suck. And they’ll suck just enough to win the Super Bowl again. 2. Denver Broncos (No. 2; 2-0): With the No. 1 team on the docket for Week Three, the opportunity is there to not lose by 35 points. 3. New England Patriots (No. 4; 1-1): Cries of “the Pats are done” became “the Pats done kicked Minnesota’s behind” on Sunday. 4. Green Bay Packers (No. 3; 1-1): They lose a spot for flirting for too long with a lesser team, but the Packers are still a top-five franchise. 5. Cincinnati Bengals (No. 6; 2-0): Maybe when James Harrison said “ain’t no fun when the rabbit got the gun,” he was referring to the Bengals turning tables in the AFC North. 10. Baltimore Ravens (No. 14; 1-1): The Ravens took refuge last week in football. The Steelers wish they hadn’t. 16. Pittsburgh Steelers (No. 13; 1-1): Mike Tomlin needed to trip a bunch of guys other than Jacoby Jones for the Steelers to have a chance in Baltimore last Thursday. 21. Cleveland Browns (No. 31; 1-1): If this team is still in the hunt after Josh Gordon comes back, things could get very interesting in December. Week Two power rankings | ProFootballTalk
September 16, 201412 yr I think they earned the spot ahead of the Packers. The Packers defense is horrible.
September 16, 201412 yr If the Bengals can run the ball like Sunday w/ their defense, then they are perfectly set up for a long run in the playoffs. Hill and Bernard are like having Woods and Brooks. Hopefully, the OLine can play 3/4 as good as that '88 line was.
September 16, 201412 yr I believe they should be #3 ahead of the Patriots too. The Pats lost to the Dolphins, while the Bengals have won pretty impressively even with injuries.
September 16, 201412 yr Author I believe they should be #3 ahead of the Patriots too. The Pats lost to the Dolphins, while the Bengals have won pretty impressively even with injuries. Agree, I think they are #3 at this point. Not that it matters, but I think this Bengals team is special.
September 16, 201412 yr I think they earned the spot ahead of the Packers. I'd agree and probably say above the Patriots too.
September 16, 201412 yr I think they earned the spot ahead of the Packers. The Packers defense is horrible. Agreed and I could see them ahead of the Patriots possibly as well.
September 16, 201412 yr I'd agree and probably say above the Patriots too. Agreed and I could see them ahead of the Patriots possibly as well. Oct 5 should be fun.
September 16, 201412 yr ESPN has the Bengals #3 this week. http://espn.go.com/nfl/powerrankings/_/year/2014/week/3
September 16, 201412 yr I rank the Seahawks and Broncos ahead of the Bengals. The Eagles perhaps as well. I say around 3 or 4. No way the Packers should be ahead of the Bengals. The team to keep your eye on is Buffalo. I thought many had them underrated at the start of the year. They look like a very good team to me. I also expected a good year out of the Texans, but the Clowney injury impacts their potential.

September 16, 201412 yr They are 3 on ESPN, Fox and Newsday. That is probably most accurate at this point.
