Nfl Tickets - Week 3 Power Rankings
With the first two weeks of the NFL's regular season under way
, things are starting to shape up for teams around the league. Here are the top teams taking the early lead going into Week 3.
1. New Orleans Saints. The 2010 Saints don't look as powerful as the 2009 Saints at first glance, but they're still a solid team that has beaten two very tough teams so far in the Minnesota Vikings and San Francisco Giants. With Reggie Bush out the Saints could be in trouble, but we'll see what Sean Payton has cooking for the Saints to replace their do-it-all running back.
2. Indianapolis Colts. What Super Bowl hangover? After a rocky start in a Week 1 loss to the Houston Texans, the Indianapolis Colts are back at the top after a convincing win against the New York Giants in Week 2. Peyton Manning looked every part of a league MVP as he went 20 of 26 with 255 yards and three touchdowns against brother Eli and the Giants, and it's comforting to know the Colts can get by just fine without Bob Sanders on defense. Running backs Joseph Addai and Donald Brown combined for a run attack we usually don't see from the Colts offense, but with a plethora of receiving talent in the lineup as well, this Indianapolis team already looks destined to go to another Super Bowl this year.
3. Green Bay Packers. The Packers suffered a minor setback with the loss of running back Ryan Grant for the year, but Brandon Jackson looks to be a solid option in his place. Aaron Rodgers is quickly becoming one of the best quarterbacks in the league, and he continues posting stellar performances that only help his case as an NFL elite.
4. Houston Texans. It could be considered a fluke when the Texans beat the Colts in Week 1, but their big win over the Redskins in Week 2 is undeniable (we'll let Matt Schaub's 497 yards passing speak for itself). It's true; the Texans are a legit team this year, and while perhaps a bit overhyped they're still a team most NFL analysts are jazzed on so far this season. Are the Texans good enough to beat the Colts out for the AFC South title? So far, so good for Matt Schaub and Co.
5. Pittsburgh Steelers. The Steelers are 2-0 already this season and Ben Roethlisberger hasn't even thrown a toss yet. Once he's back from a league suspension, Roethlisberger should be able to make the Steelers an even stronger team.
6. New York Jets. The Jets have already had some heavy highs and lows this season - and it's only Week 3! After getting beat by the Baltimore Ravens in Week 1, the Jets came back with a vengeance in Week 2 and beat the Patriots with a steady offense and signature hold-'em defense. Most spectacularly, they did it largely without the help of Darrelle Revis, signifying that Mark Sanchez and the Jets could really be as great as Rex Ryan proclaimed them to be once they connect.
7. Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins are cruising atop the AFC East after Week 2, and they still haven't played to their full potential. With upcoming games against the Jets and Patriots, though, the Dolphins could either soar or sink over the next couple weeks.
8. New England Patriots. The Patriots will always be a team that sells tons of NFL tickets, and Tom Brady's legacy in the league is still as strong as ever. Brady and the Patriots got beat by the Jets in Week 2 when they showed some big weaknesses, but what we've learned from Bill Belichick over the last several years is to never - never - underestimate this New England team.
9. Cincinnati Bengals. The Bengals D shut down the Ravens in Week 2, and once the T.Ochocinco show gets rolling the Bengals could be unstoppable. The problem is keeping consistent, and Carson Palmer needs to step up if the Bengals want to be legitimate postseason contenders again this year.
10. Baltimore Ravens. Joe Flacco's Ravens are tough again this year, but with an average of 10 points per game the Ravens need to kick it up a notch if they want to continue winning ball games. The Ravens should be higher than this on the rankings, but they haven't yet earned a Top 5 place.
