Who’s the 2nd best team in the NFL?

[PatsFan1283]

Who is the first?

I like more scoring but it is at the point where it doesn't feel like the NFL, it is like arena football or something. Just chuck the ball 50 or more times a game and you will likely complete a pass, get pass interference or a Qb will stub theit toe and the defense will get a flag. And with 6'5 giant ass receivers out jumping smaller Dbs just hail mary everything.If you have a top7 QB it is all good. Win, win win. Unless you got the rare great defense forget it. Get a team like the 2007 Giants who beat the Pats with a great 4 man pass rush and were able to drop back 7 in coverage. Other than that passing dominates

College is different because there are so many teams the disparity in talent is so much bigger. Elite teams grab the talent and they dominate by running. If you get a good big offensive line you just blow everyone off the line of scrimmage. You get a much better mix of run and pass because passing is stil important but if you can run there is less risk. College offenses are also more diverse and much more fun to watch

Ya, why I liked Jags under.

And Minn had a nice upgrade at QB but their D just can't sustain last years play either with big name guys going in and out of the lineup.

Both defenses had almost no injuries last year, just tough to repeat that.

No one has the Saints on top of the NFL, no one. Not Vegas, Not ESPN, Not anyone.

Other than the Rx's #1 Homer.

(But I'm biased because those losers got me kicked out of a Harry's survivor contest on week friggin' 1)

That is simply not true.

According to the odds-makers, it's a tie between NE and the Chiefs...

You said nobody .
thats one example .

You said not Vegas, no experts, no polls, no nothing .

Plenty of people not named me think the saints are #1

 

[skins85]

if saints could get another receiver to step up they would look unstoppable to me. amazing they lost to the bucs week 1 but ever since they got ingram back they have looked very solid.

I Just did a quick search through about 8 sports sites highest I see them on power rankings is #2, mostly between 4-5.

Maybe you will find a few on the Bayou who rank Saints #1, but thats about it.

 

[PatsFanatic]

But obviously that changes if they win Sunday so good luck

 

[skins85]

Cowherd has them as #1 but he likes the controversy of pissing people off around the LA area i think

 

[CHOPTALK]

Everyone I’ve seen they at least #2
And I’ve seen 2 #1s


yea there you go #1 Colin Cowherd .

Saints average ranking well above the beloved Pats

well you have trouble seeing then, or you really didn't look.

I have no problems with them being higher than the Pats, so please with the Homer stuff. I'm realistic, something you are not capable of lol.

I'm still looking and can't find them #1, and as far as "at least" #2, a few have them ranked that high, but it wouldn't be any type of consensus. Plenty have them lower.

Rams haven’t lost so I believe they should be number 1 until they lose.
Let’s not forget they have played one more game as well.

 

[PatsFan1283]

Just Let me know when they Beat someone

and now that they saw the blueprint from GB yesterday, maybe they have a chance against the Rams

What's the blueprint?

Falling apart in a critical game at home. Not best-team-in-the-league type behavior.
