I can’t believe Coach Levy is still going well! He turned 99 in August

No clue he was still alive

^^^^ yeah, Browns have done stuff like that, but usually something mind bogglingly worse and it's never "very cool."

Gotta admit, the fact I wasn't expecting Dallas to be this bad right now makes it even more fun. Didn't expect them to be great (10-7 level, early playoff exit), but thought they had a good win against Pittsburgh, gutting it out at the end and might be a wee bit better than expected. And then they've been a gift that's just kept giving.

Jerry threatening to replace radio hosts for daring to actually ask him questions about the team's offseason as far as talent acquisition instead of just letting him say whatever he wants. This was a result of him saying they couldn't afford Derrick Henry after it was reported that they would have been his first choice before going to Baltimore. When they shored up the RB spot by, uh, bringing back Zeke and his 3 yard average to team up with someone named Rico Dowdle. Right now, Henry has close to twice the rush yards as their entire team.

The total humiliation at the hands of Detroit. Even better because it broke Jerry's pal Chris Christie into crying about running up the score and being classless AND because Jerry's next stint on the radio show had him ripping Mike McCarthy's play calling on offense.

And then, playing a San Fran team that's loaded with injuries, they forgot to show up in the third quarter to allow the 49ers to build a nice lead they would be able to hold throughout the fourth.

Also, their next four games are at Atlanta, home against Philly and Houston and at Washington. 3-8 is possible after that stretch and 4-7 feels really likely. This is fucking great!

People sure are up in their feelings about Bosa and his MAGA hat.

Saw a college kid from some school in Texas lifted his jersey to expose a MAGA T-Shirt, I believe, after scoring a TD. Seems like a lot more of these athletes are no longer afraid to show their allegiances.

Saw an article suggesting that the Colts were wasting their skill player talent (Downs, Pittman) and should just bench them if they are going to keep starting Richardson. I know they want to see what they have in the young guy but it's a helluva lot more fun watching Flacco sling it around.

1. Chiefs. Another close win.

2. Lions. Crushed the stupid Titans. 

3a. Bills. Took care of business against Seattle.

3b. Steelers. 

5. Packers. They won but Jordan Love hurt again and Detroit is up next for them. 

6. Commanders. I think Chicago lost this game more so than they won it but oh well. 

7. Texans. Ugly win but it's better than a loss. 

8. Ravens. Caught Jameis Winston at the wrong time. Hate when that happens. 

9. Eagles. A road game against the Bengals always helps things. 

10. Falcons. Offense got rolling again. 

11. Broncos. They're feisty but next three are @Baltimore, @KC, vs Atlanta. Do they win any of those?

12. Vikings. Bit of bad luck with the narrow loss to Detroit and the missed face-mask against the Rams. But, their schedule is very favorable. Colts, Jags, Titans, Bears, Cardinals. If they're legit then they can win most of those. 

13. Cardinals. Fun team, keep narrowly winning. 

14. 49ers. Still think they're a top ten team but can't put them there yet. 

15. Chargers. Finally got a legit win. Do it again next week. 

16. Bears. Turned a victory into a loss. 

17. Rams. Very resilient. Wonder if they still try to trade Kupp. 

18. Seahawks. Maybe we can finally quit this team.

19. Buccaneers. Offense looked semi-competent despite the injuries. 

20. Cowboys. Played 49ers close in the end but not good enough.

21. Colts. Anthony Richardson has been disappointing so far.

22. Bengals. Losers. 

23. Jaguars. Weekly who cares team.

24. Browns. Whoever in that organization that insisted on keeping Watson playing should be banned from football.

25. Giants. 

26. Patriots. Beating the stupid Jets won't get you much respect here. 

27. Raiders. Good news they have a road game against the Bengals next week.

28. Jets. Poopy poop poopers poop poop.

29. Saints. A bottom team without Carr who may not be back next week, either.

30. Dolphins. Even with Tua back they still lose.. 

31. Titans. Traded Hopkins and will compete for the #1 pick

32. Panthers. With the #1 pick..

Vikings have earned a top 10 with a thrashing of the Texans, won at Green Bay and recently played the Lions tightly

They should be in the top ten of week 8 power rankings because they won in week 3? 

Cut me some slack. I churn these out despite the bengals making me hate football.

All games count. Texans haven’t looked great of late and they beat them by 24. I appreciate your work but disagree with this one. 30 teams look great on your list

I guess I think power rankings, if done on a weekly basis, should reflect how the team is doing that week. I’m not going to keep Minnesota in the top ten because they had impressive wins a month ago.
