AFC Rankings 10 Weeks In. Do you Agree????

These are my AFC Rankings after week 10.
1. Tennessee Titans 9-0
What a special season. A win in Chicago with nothing to show from their running game? Is this the best team in football?
2. NE Patriots 6-3 ▲2
Matt Cassel is getting better and better. I pick against them every week and not only do they cover they win outright. The best coach and a veteran team could surprise down the stretch.
3. Baltimore Ravens 6-3 ▲3
Winners of 4 straight and riding a Ray Lewis resurgence.
4. Pittsburgh Steelers 6-3 ▼2
Is it time for Big Ben to take a seat and heal up for the stretch run? The offensive line is not playing up to par. Can the defense carry them to the championship?
5. Indianapolis Colts 5-4 ▲3
Don’t look now but they are getting healthy and have won 2 straight. Can Peyton get them to a wild card?
6. New York Jets 6-3 ▲2
If the running game continues to develop then Favre won’t have to be the mad bomber. That is a good thing. The Jets “AFC East Division Champs”?
7. Denver Broncos 5-4 ▼2
I can’t figure this team out. Way too erratic. No running game due to injuries. Suspect defense and throwing the ball 40 times a game will have you playing golf early this year.
8. Miami Dolphins 5-4 ▲1
The most improved team in the AFC and second in the NFL behind the Falcons. It shows you just what having a good organization set up can do for you. Parcell’s waves his magic wand again.
9. Buffalo Bills 5-4 ▼6
Trent Edwards has not been the same since his concussion. They can’t run the ball and are making defensive mistakes. They were in control of the division but 3 straight losses to divisional foes will have them on the outside looking in at playoff time.
10. Jacksonville Jags 3-4
Hanging on to playoff hopes by a thread. If they don’t beat the Titans this week, they will be joining the list of major disappointments in 2008.
11. Cleveland Browns 12. San Diego Chargers 13. Houston Texans 14. Oakland Raiders 15. Kansas City Chiefs 16. Cincinnati Bengals

Quite surprised to see the Patriots sitting at number 2. I’m still not convinced they are that good, and with injuries mounting will it eventually take its toll?
Someone in this conference better be capable of taking the Giants out in the Super Bowl, I do not want to see a repeat at all.
Also with the Broncos sitting at 5-4, I’m not convinced we’ve seen the last of the Chargers.

The Chargers are brutal and I am sick of hearing people talk about them. I am more concerned about the Chiefs at this point to be honest with you.

and before you argue take a look at who those teams have left to play. I would much rather have the Chiefs sched. Broncos are no question the favorite in the division right now despite all their injury problems.

I think the Broncos win by default. Norv Turner simply is a lousy coach and they won last year in spite of him and they were a 2 point conversion away from being out of the race completely.

Funny how the AFC and NFC worst divisions are in the West!

a few years back the West in the AFC was unreal…Broncos at least have an excuse as they have been hit hard by the injury bug.
