Last week, many power rankings had the Bills ahead of the Chiefs at no.1 on the list…I did not. As I say every week, to be the man, you have to beat the man. The Chiefs are “The Man,” and until they lose, they will stay atop this list. My faith was rewarded last week when Buffalo went into Baltimore and was absolutely throttled by the Ravens.
Now, this week, I’m seeing some power rankings that have the only other undefeated team ahead of the Chiefs. In the NFC, the Vikings stand alone as the only 4-0 team after their convincing and impressive victory in Green Bay. The Packers waged a furious comeback, scoring 22 points in the fourth quarter, only losing 31-29. The final score is irrelevant to me; even if the Vikings held onto their four-touchdown lead, they would be in the exact same spot on this list, at no.2.
The Patriots have fallen to a spot where I really didn’t want to put them, but it is unavoidable…they are currently the worst team in the league.
