(The Redskins are 2-0 in the division, giving them props for that. Eagles are w/out Vick for a while, thumbs down. Hard to put the Bears up that high, as awful as they looked in their last game.)

Week 8 power rankings
ReplyDeleteAFC
Patriots (getting it done)
Ravens (good not great yet)

Chiefs (like the work ethic)
Texans (fierce D)
Titans (inconsistent)

Jags (not good but hanging)
Browns (hard working)
Bills (hard working)
Broncos (they can pass)
Bengals (should be much better)
Packers -2.5 Steelers O/U 44
ReplyDeleteDefinitely take the over. I think the first half will be sluggish but by the 4th quarter they'll be rolling up and down the field on each other. The defenses will wear down eventually and points will get scored (think of the Pats-Panthers Super Bowl).
Packers 34-28 Steelers
