Well, the best they could be under those circumstances is 1-1.

But aren't they 0-2 because we beat them?

Ranked 32nd against the run, 2nd against the pass and 21st overall.

[quote=70Chip;353798]Yeah, but they were probably the #1 or #2 defense in the playoffs. It was like watching a completely different team. Part of it was they got their safety back and I think part of it was Dungey sandbagging so there wouldn't be film on his schemes. He knew his offense could get him in the playoffs and then he let his defense loose. Big offense and no defense will take you part of the way. To go all the way you have to be good/near great in all three phases of the game.[/quote]

I could be niave, but i doubt he was 'sandbagging.' If nothing else, your first comment was dead on. Bob Sanders is a bad ass, and him not being a starter probably affected the plays they were calling.

What's NOT shocking is that only the Lions are lower than us as far as teams that are undefeated are concerned.

People lets also not forget that the 2 teams that the Cowgirls beat are also 0-2 (Giants and Dolphins). I'm not saying we should be in the top 5 but we should at least be closer ranked to one another.......

Yea....and theres a reason for that, because the REDSKINS GOT A HOLD OF THERE ASS! CAPN. OBVIOUS :doh:

Re: ESPN Power Rankings 9/18/07
 

Personally I think the ranking isnt too bad, needs to be a bit higher. The way Miami played against Dallas makes me think Miami's D isn't as good as hyped to be. It is obvious their offense has problems as well.

You have to take that into consideration when power ranking us. Now if we win next week too, then I would think we break the top 10.

Get Real the Bengals gave up 51 points to the Cleveland Browns & they are ahead of us!!! Stupidity at it's finest!!!

Re: ESPN Power Rankings 9/18/07
 

Re: The Cows - they must be getting worked up over this weekend's game vs the Bears. They have shown a lot of offense in wins over two of the weakest defensive teams in the League (the Giants- 29th - and the Fins -25th).
It will be instructive to see what happens vs Erlacher, Briggs and company!

Re: ESPN Power Rankings 9/18/07
 

just win games and string together a good season...I don't care what the rankings are. You must earn respect! So take it and stop waiting for it!
