The Best Damn Sports Forum...Period!

Week 1 of the NFL is over. And here are the updated power rankings. I don't care if you agree or disagree. Let me remind you that these are my opinons. Which means they are the right ones. But If you wanna bitch and moan you can shoot me an email.

If you missed last weeks rankings you can check them out by clicking here. After watching the Raiders get sodomized by the Chargers I think I'm gonna go drink some hard liquor to ease the pain.

So with out further delay here are the rankings for this week. Enjoy!

2006 RyanMcBain.com Power Rankings: Week 1
	RANK	TEAM	REC	COMMENTS
	1	Steelers	1-0-0	You have to give props to Pittsburgh. They proved that they are the real deal. It ain't easy beating a good team when you don't even have your starting quarterback.
	2	Colts	1-0-0	The Colts better learn how to stop the run or this ranking won't last long.
	3	Seahawks	1-0-0	You guys almost lost to who?!?
	4	Falcons	1-0-0	Michael Vick played decent against a good great defense.
	5	Bengals	1-0-0	If Carson Palmer can stay protected, this team will be deadly.
	6	Patriots	1-0-0	It seems like the Pats just find ways to win.
	7	Panthers	0-1-0	The Panthers should be fine once Steve Smith comes back.
	8	Jaguars	1-0-0	The Jaguars got punched in the mouth early and came back. Impressive.
	9	Eagles	1-0-0	T.O. who?
	10	Bears	1-0-0	Has the Bears offense finally arrived?
	11	Cowboys	0-1-0	So when is Terrell Owens going to snap?
	12	Ravens	1-0-0	Steve McNair might be all this team needs.
	13	Dolphins	0-1-0	Chris Chambers needs to step up. The same goes for Daunte Culpepper.
	14	Chargers	1-0-0	Shawne Merriman is starting to look like the next Lawrence Taylor.
	15	Giants	0-1-0	Eli Manning needs to become a more accurate passer.
	16	Rams	1-0-0	This might be Steven Jackson's year.
	17	Vikings	1-0-0	The Vikings are an average team. But they beat a good Skins team on the road. Smart teams win games.
	18	Chiefs	0-1-0	The Chiefs are going to have some problems until Trent Green comes back.
	19	Buccaneers	0-1-0	Someone get Brian Griese on the phone.
	20	Broncos	0-1-0	If Jake Plummer keeps this up, Jay Cutler is going to be starting very soon.
	21	Cardinals	1-0-0	The Cards have plenty of offense. If only they had a offensive line to go with it.
	22	Jets	1-0-0	Lets see how long Chad Pennington can say healthy.
	23	Redskins	0-1-0	The Skins should have won their home opener. There is no excuse for dumb penalties.
	24	Saints	1-0-0	Reggie Bush is going to make Houston fans sick with envy.
	25	Bills	0-1-0	The Bills showed that they can hang with the NFL best in week 1.
	26	Lions	0-1-0	Wow. The Lions defense showed up. What a shame that the offense hasn't showed up in years.
	27	Browns	0-1-0	As of right now, Charlie Fyre is not the answer.
	28	Titans	0-1-0	Vince Young might be the future. And the Titans seem to only care about the future rather than the here and now.
	29	49ers	0-1-0	The Niners are no longer the worst team in the NFL. But they still suck. This team needs playmakers like Mike Tyson needs common sense.
	30	Texans	0-1-0	Did Mario Williams even play? Don't worry about not having Reggie Bush. Rumor has it the Ron Dayne area is about to begin. Ha ha ha.
	31	Packers	0-1-0	Favre is going to be asking himself why he didn't retire during this season. When you make the Bears offense look that superior, something is wrong.
	32	Raiders	0-1-0	It hurts me to write this but Oakland is the worst team in the NFL. The offensive line is horrific. It looks like Robert Gallery is a bust. The silver and black have no passion and it showed Monday night against the Chargers. Someone get Tom Flores on the phone!
