RoyBatty is alive Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 More strange then the Bills at #9 is Detroit at # 11.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 My "educated" guess is somewhere in between these 9 teams remain undefeated 10 teams remain w/o a win the rare ones that had Buff at 17 may move them to 15 and those that had them at 24 may move them to 20 which is why I made the above statement Pete Prisco had picked Buffalo twice now and I was off by 1 spot.

Arizona and Detroit are the only teams that tied but they have the Chargers, Saints, Eagles, and Vikings with ties. The blurbs are all based on week 1. The heavy.com rankings seem to have ranked all the 2-0 teams, then the 1 win teams, and then the winless teams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) NFL.com http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001055967/article/nfl-power-rankings-week-3-cowboys-hit-top-five-saints-sink must be a typo. oh wait never mind 3 (4) lower than the 8 other undefeated teams. RANK 12 BILLS (2-0) Up 5 Previous rank: No. 17 For the second straight week, the Bills came to the Meadowlands and throttled the home offense. My favorite stat from the 28-14 win over the Giants comes from ESPN.com's Marcel Louis-Jacques,who noted that only three of the Giants' 12 drives spanned more than six plays. That's called having your way with an opponent. The Bills took control of the game with three consecutive touchdown drives spanning the first and second quarters. Unlike his sloppy start and strong close against the Jets in the opener, Josh Allen delivered a strong, consistent performance, picking on the Giants' weak secondary for his second straight game of more than 250 yards passing. Allen spread the ball around to eight different receivers and avoided making the mental errors that have held him back in the past. Get excited, Bills fans. This season could be fun. 3 minutes ago, Peace Frog said: This power ranking is messed up. We're 2-0 and yet we move from 17th last week to 18th this week.

SoTier Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I think #12 is a fair ranking at this time. Yes, the Bills are 2-0 and did that on the road but both of their opponents look to be serious bottom-feeders. Until they prove they can beat teams about equal to them or better, they won't get the "respect" that Bills fans think they deserve now. A win, even a lopsided one, next week over Cinci probably won't propel the Bills more than 1 or 2 places higher. If they can go toe-to-toe with the Pats in Week 4, then they'll start being considered a serious playoff contender. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie's Dead Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Simply ranking teams by record, and then ranking them within that record is intellectually lazy. I could do that myself. Be intellectually lazy, I mean. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rew Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 The heavy numbers are lazy and counter to the intent of a "power ranking". If you want to see rankings based on record just go to nfl.com standings. Looking at last year's results, combined with the bottom feeder perception of the teams we beat, I would put us in the mid teens at this point. While we as the fans saw a game where the Bills clearly outplayed the Jets for 4 quarters as a team, it doesn't matter. The result is that we beat the giants and almost lost to the Jets. If we embarrass the Bengals we could go up a few spots. Playing the Pats tough, even if we lose, will have the greatest impact on where perception falls. Personally, I feel the Bills can be a top 10 team this year. But we (and the media) won't know until we play another top 10 team and are competitive.
