1.\u00c2\u00a0 New England Patriots<\/strong>\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0
\nFour games \u00e2\u20ac\u201c four blowouts.\u00c2\u00a0 They have a lay-up this week with the Brownies coming to town, but they will finally get tested in week six at Dallas.<\/p>\n

2.\u00c2\u00a0 Indianapolis Colts<\/strong>
\nLosing Marvin Harrison might be the only thing that can slow down this offense.\u00c2\u00a0 Denver was again just a speed bump on their schedule.<\/p>\n

3.\u00c2\u00a0 Dallas Cowboys<\/strong>
\nThrough four weeks there is little debate as to who is the best team in the NFC.\u00c2\u00a0 They have a Monday night game in Buffalo before hosting the Pats in what will be billed as a possible Super Bowl preview.<\/p>\n

4.\u00c2\u00a0 Green Bay Packers
\n<\/strong>The Packers have set themselves up with a three-game lead over Chicago.\u00c2\u00a0 Detroit shouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t challenge, so there is no excuse for not winning the division.\u00c2\u00a0 They need to find ways to run the ball against good defenses.<\/p>\n

5.\u00c2\u00a0 Tennessee Titans<\/strong>
\nThe front office in Tennessee deserves a lot of credit for the way they have rebuilt this team.\u00c2\u00a0 The resurgence of the Titans is big part of why the AFC South is the league\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s best division.<\/p>\n

6.\u00c2\u00a0 Pittsburgh Steelers<\/strong>
\nThe Steelers were outgained on the ground in Phoenix.\u00c2\u00a0 That rarely happens, but when it does, they need better play from Ben and the passing attack.\u00c2\u00a0 Roethlisberger was average at best on Sunday.<\/p>\n

7.\u00c2\u00a0 Jacksonville Jaguars<\/strong>
\nIf the Jags can take care of the Chiefs and Texans over the next two weeks, they will get a shot at the Colts in their house with a share of first place on the line.<\/p>\n

8.\u00c2\u00a0 Seattle Seahawks<\/strong>
\nAlthough the Niner\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s offense is struggling, allowing just three points in a road game is a big deal for Seattle.\u00c2\u00a0 Duplicating that effort this week in Pittsburgh would be very impressive.<\/p>\n

9.\u00c2\u00a0 Tampa Bay Buccaneers<\/strong>
\nThe road win in Carolina is huge for the Bucs.\u00c2\u00a0 Garcia continues to prove that he can play and win in this league.\u00c2\u00a0 The defense has allowed just 24 points in their last three games.\u00c2\u00a0 They will be tested on Sunday in Indianapolis.<\/p>\n

10.\u00c2\u00a0 Detroit Lions<\/strong>
\nI can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t believe I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m typing this.\u00c2\u00a0 The Lions have made the top ten.\u00c2\u00a0 I tried, but I couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t find anyone else who deserved it more.\u00c2\u00a0 The NFL has definitely achieved the parity it was hoping for.
\nFrom The Bottom<\/strong><\/p>\n

26. Atlanta Falcons
\n<\/strong>A big win moves the Falcons up a few spots but not out of the unholy five.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

27. Minnesota Vikings<\/strong>
\nIf the defense left the field, it would take the Vikings two plays to score.\u00c2\u00a0 Watching this offense is torture.\u00c2\u00a0 It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a shame because the defense is outstanding.<\/p>\n

28.\u00c2\u00a0 New Orleans Saints<\/strong>
\nIt\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s hard to believe the Saints have made it from the top ten to the bottom ten after three games.\u00c2\u00a0 I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t think they will stay here, but giving up almost three times as many points as you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve scored gets you an honorary spot in the bottom of the league.<\/p>\n

29.\u00c2\u00a0 Miami Dolphins<\/strong>
\nWhen the Raiders come to town and beat you, you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re bad.<\/p>\n

30. St Louis Rams<\/strong>
\nThe Rams got a special team score to account for their only points on Sunday.\u00c2\u00a0 Injuries have destroyed this team, but it shouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t be quite this bad for the once prolific offense.\u00c2\u00a0 As of week four, the Rams are on the clock.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
