5. Bengals - Can you say under-achievers? This team has entirely too much talent to only have two wins. Carson Palmer has regressed. I think he has not recovered mentally from his knee injury. He looks very skittish in the pocket.
4. Dallas Cowboys - It took Wade Philips getting canned for this team to show up and play. Wade handled his firing with class and is still rooting for the team. Perhaps the team can continue to play up to their capabilities and make the 2nd half of the season interesting.
3. Lions - This team is struggling to rid itself of its losing atmosphere. They have more talent than the Bills and had chances to win but the team just couldn't seal the deal. They need to take that next step forward.
2. Bills - The Bills finally got their first win. The 2008 Lions are popping champagne as the will remain the only 0-16 team in history. Seriously though, I am glad they got a win. Every team deserves to win at least 1 game. Plus this team plays hard every week.
1. Panthers - They are running on fumes. Nearly all of their talented players are injury. They will struggle to stay in games the rest of the year.
The Bengals can't seem to put things together no matter how hard they try. Personally, I think Carson Palmer is way overrated. He's on the level of a Tony Romo, if that.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy Dallas won, but mad that they took this long to play inspired ball. Adults shouldn't need a coach to motivate them. Especially adults who are compensated financially as well as the 'Boys have been. Jones paid his stars and gave them the Taj Mahal of sports to play in and they haven't own a game there yet this season.
The Lions would be higher ranked than Dallas to me. At least they've been in most of their games.
So would the Bills.
The Panthers have injuries, QB issues and a coach on his way out. I feel badly for Steve Smith and their fans.
