Jeremy's NFL Rankings BCS Style- Week 1

What if the NFL ran a NCAA style of polling to decide who the best teams were to play in a championship game? 

Well, here are the rankings after Week 1





1. Denver Broncos (17)
Manning is back. He looks ready to reclaim his spot as one of 4 elite QBs in the league. The defense can only improve, but the whole offense looks like it will be one of the best. The biggest concern is the offensive line, one bad hit to Manning, kiss any chances good-bye. Best team of Week 1 vs. an elite opponent.

2. San Francisco 49ers (7)

Alex Smith is the only concern for this star-studded team, if he stays average, they can win it all. Stay smart and focused, a lot of immature players...and their coach as well.


3. Baltimore Ravens (4)
Solid performance, an odd team to judge, but still earned enough to be at 3.


4. New England Patriots (2)
Are very close to Baltimore, maybe even better, but the Ravens get the upper hand for playing a better team. Pat's secondary still needs some work, as well as executing plays on both sides of the ball.


5. Houston Texans 
This year's dark horse with a very good chance to become a contender. Would be higher if not for a slow start against Miami, but still show they can be a deadly force.
