Its the miami way.
imo- 6 is optimistic. Flipper and the Dawgs battle it out for the top pick with either 3 or 4 wins.

If you disregard personnel, reputation, and previous results and base the rankings solely off of what has happened this far this year, these are actually fairly accurate.

Bengals laid an egg week 1 vs a very good maybe super bowl Ravens team and they are 17th? Wow. They are a playoff team in the AFC easily.

The Ravens or the Bengals are easily a playoff team?

I'd say the worst thing besides the Cards at #1 is the Giants at 4 and the Cowboys at 16 LOL.

The only 2 AFC teams that are easily playoff teams are probably Houston and Baltimore, and honestly New England as well I'd say. I like the Bengals and right now I would say they are a playoff team, but they are far from "easily" a playoff team.

Looking at the list though, Philly and Denver should be lower, Cincinnati, Minnesota, and Indy higher just at first glance.

Alabama probably has a higher player payroll than Cleveland or Miami.

Pretty bold statement. If they don't get through their gift of an opening schedule without a loss (sans ravens), I don't see them making the playoffs.

I think the Ravens will win the North but the Bengals will get a wildcard.

Skip Bayless is a joke.

Skip Bayless‏@RealSkipBayless Right now I rank the AFC: 1) NE 2) Hou 3) Pitts 4) Denver 5) Blank - nobody good enough right now for 5th.
