1. New Orleans Saints <\/strong>
\nThe Saints dispatched the Vikings in the season opener on Thursday, showing they can play and win a defensive game.<\/p>\n

2. Baltimore Ravens<\/strong>
\nThe Ravens completely clamped off the Jets anemic offense and won a tough road game against an AFC contender.\u00a0 The confidence level in Baltimore has to be sky high right now.<\/p>\n

3. Green Bay Packers<\/strong>
\nThe Packers controlled the Eagles for the better part of Sunday\u2019s game.\u00a0 They may be in front to stay in the NFC North.<\/p>\n

4. Minnesota Vikings<\/strong>
\nThe Vikings drew a tough opening week, and played as well as could be expected.\u00a0 This team will show dramatic improvement over the next few weeks as the offense gets more repetition between Favre and the receivers filling in for the injured Sidney Rice.<\/p>\n

5. Houston Texans<\/strong>
\nThe Texans appear to finally have their roster where it needs to be to compete with the Colts in the AFC South.\u00a0 The power running game was only matched by the huge effort put forth by the defense.\u00a0 Peyton Manning had big fantasy numbers, but the defense controlled the Colts running game (44 yds) and put heavy pressure on Manning consistently.<\/p>\n

6. Indianapolis Colts<\/strong>
\nThe Colts were manhandled up front by Houston on Sunday.\u00a0 They can expect each opponent from here on out to try the same approach that the Texans used.<\/p>\n

7. New England Patriots<\/strong>
\nThe Pats dominated the Bengals in a game some felt would be much closer.\u00a0 New England get the chance to put the rival Jets two games back in the division if they can manage a road win Sunday.<\/p>\n

8. Pittsburgh Steelers<\/strong>
\nThe Steelers just wanted to tread water through Big Ben\u2019s suspension.\u00a0 They got through week one on the back of their defense, which throttled one of the league\u2019s best running games.<\/p>\n

9. New York Giants<\/strong>
\nThe pass rush looked to be in vintage form against Carolina.\u00a0 It will need to be again next week in Indianapolis.<\/p>\n

10.\u00a0 New York Jets<\/strong>
\nThe \u201cwalk\u201d was nowhere to be found on Monday night following all the talk throughout the preseason.\u00a0 The Jets penalty yardage (125) more than doubled their passing yards (60), and the offense only managed a pathetic 6 first downs.\u00a0 You have to wonder about Rex Ryan\u2019s defensive game plan as well since blitzing on every third down wasn\u2019t working, and he still didn\u2019t vary the attack. The Ravens converted 11 of 19 third downs, which was the true difference in the game as the Jets bottled up the Ravens ground game.\u00a0 The season will officially enter disaster mode if Gang Green gets another hard knock at home this week against the Patriots.\ufeff<\/p>\n
