Another fantastic week in football, and another week where change in the top 5 is just another formality... At least #1 hasn't changed.
1. Tennessee Titans - 6-0. Only undefeated team left. LenDale White - REALLY? Chris Johnson - We kind of knew he was good, but even so, WOW. I have a hard time believing this team will continue it's dominance with Kerry Collins at the helm, but week in, week out, they produce. Great team, great defense...
2. New York Giants - Still the class of the NFC. I'm starting to believe that Eli Manning can play consistent, mistake-free QB. Shocking, but that's really all it takes when you have a team that is meshing like this one to win. I hate the Giants...
3. Pittsburgh Steelers - I almost put them at #4, only because beating the pulp out of a QB-less and struggling Bengals team isn't exactly impressive. Not having Fast Willie in their lineup doesn't seem to be hindering their offensive output, and Mewelde Moore is really taking advantage of this starting role. I foresee the dreaded RBBC once Willie Parker is back in the lineup, which will only help this team in the long haul. Sometimes injuries work in mysterious ways...
4. Buffalo Bills - Solid win over San Diego. I thought this was going to be their first real test of the season, but it wasn't. The loss could have been a fluke, or maybe the Chargers just aren't that good? L.T. isn't his same old self, and the Bills are taking advantage.
5. Carolina Panthers - It's not really fair that they're getting the nod over another team with the same record that just beat them the previous week and also won this week (Tampa Bay Bucaneers), but I just don't see the dominance that the Panthers exhibit. They made a dynamic New Orleans Saints team look like they were playing 3rd stringers all game. Granted, Reggie Bush got injured, but that wasn't until the final seconds of the 1st half. The Panthers impressed me this week.
