Jeremy's Power Five

Well, since neither the Packers or the Seahawks are going to make my list, I figured I'd give you my Power Five early. Lots of movement on my list this week with some very impressive games.

Number Five: The San Diego Chargers - Barely beat the Oakland Raiders. Their defense is going to have to step it up if they are going to do anything in the playoffs.

Number Four: The Chicago Bears - Wow, they stunk it up against the Pats. Yesterday's loss showed how bad Grossman is when he is pressured. That's the key to beating the bears.

Number Three: The New England Patriots - Looked very ugly against the Bears, but they did beat the number one team in the NFC. They are going to be hard to beat in the playoffs.

Number Two: The Baltimore Ravens - Absolutely dominated the lowly Steelers. The Ravens are looking like a Super Bowl Team right now. So, when does Steve McNair get hurt? Do you think it will be this week or next? McNair is like Leftwich...can't go a whole season healthy. I look for his breakdown right before the playoffs.

Number One: The Indianapolis Colts - Joseph Addai is the real deal and its time for Dungy to start giving him more carries. The Colts are unstoppable when they have a solid ground game going. The Eagles may have scored 21, but the Colts were practically playing a prevent defense after they went up 21-0. Now, Manning needs to figure out the 3-4 defense...and then its on to the Super Bowl.

Speaking of the 3-4 defense. If the playoff picture holds true, Manning would have to get through Baltimore, New England, and/or San Diego. All three of these top teams play a 3-4 defense and they are all leading their divisions. Since Manning and Dungy read my blog (HA!), my suggestion to them is to really focus the end of the season on this kind of defense. In all likelihood, they are going to have to get through at least one team using this kind of defense...and every year they lose in the playoffs to...you guessed it...a 3-4 defense. Pittsburg, New England, etc.

Hope you all enjoyed this week's Power Five. Hope you all have a wonderful week.

i didn't really watch any football Sunday because is was "divide the crack and sell it" day, needless to say i had more important things to do. but i wish i could've watched something..j/k.
I didn't watch any game but the Bengals and they won so yea Bengals. here's some insider info---> the Browns uniforms make them look like small turds running around on the field.

when i put "yea" i meant to put "YAY!" so just throw that in there. i apologize for being retarded.

I would have to agree with you...small turds...and that's why they can't win any games. For future reference...try to keep Monday reserved for "divide the crack and sell it" day. Sunday is the Lord's Day.

Yet another game at 30 or more AND a shutout (granted it was against the Browns, but still a big deal, nonetheless). Who is that team that's only one back in the AFC Wild Card race? Why it's the Bengals. Huh, that's funny. I thought everyone had ridden them off for the entire year. Well, now. What do you think about that? Thursday night's the night where it really all turns around. When we beat the Ravens AND McNair gets injured all at the same time. That would rock. Then we play some gay team next week. I can't remember their name right now. The Ponys? No that's not it. Oh, well, it'll come to me later.
