Pretty much crown wearing. Don’t want to go in, but are curious? The Bills are behind the ravens and cowboys. Sports Illustrated: https://www.si.com/betting/nfl-power-rankings-based-on-super-bowl-odds-ahead-of-week-3-packers-are-alive-afc-north-questions-01j7xwjdkajx SI with a bit of surprising Bills love, if memory serves on their previous rankings. Pro Football Network: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/nfl-power-rankings-week-3-2024/ I have a lot of respect for the Niners, but not necessarily right now. As situated with injuries and with the loss they are not number 2.

Yes, they are still great, but something is going on right now and it isn't just CMC being out.

MJS Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Wow. Baltimore does pretty well for losing two games. The media sure likes to prop them up. 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJS, I honestly don’t think that is the first time we’ve gotten some goofy power rankings from San Francisco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_In_NH Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Don't love that the Bills are playing Jags at 0-2 and possibly Ravens at 0-3..........the losses make teams dig deep 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Process Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 2 hours ago, Gregg said: Ravens are in danger of going 0-3.

And then after Washington, they play at TB and at Cleveland, which are tough games. They are in trouble. I don't bet futures, but Cincinnati+200 to win the division seems like a great bet. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That entire division looks like trash right now. Ravens, Bengals, Browns, Steelers Losing Tua might make the Dolphins better. Skylar can run away from their awful O-line.

dma0034 Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Bills: Ranked 2nd and 3rd in most power ranking NBC: 8th, directly behind Cowboys and Ravens 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruffalo Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 They all seem fairly reasonable to me. Bills should be anywhere from 2-9, the Chiefs have rightfully locked up the 1 until proven otherwise. I think tiered rankings is a lot better than power rankings honestly. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dma0034 Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 I think the Ravens are a mentally weak team. Remember a few years ago when the Dolphins came back and beat them and so did the Bills. I think they get in their own heads (like the lack of playoff success) and start making mistakes. Idk, just a theory 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royale with Cheese Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 (edited) 2 weeks from now: Power Rankings NBC Bay Area 6. Baltimore Ravens (0-3) Ravens don't look good at all now. But since we are still holding onto the Bills losing Diggs will cripple them, we still have them ahead of the Bills. 7. Buffalo Bills (3-0) Bills have been on a roll since the second half of week 1 against the Cards. It doesn't make sense that we have the Ravens above them but it also didn't make sense Lamar was MVP last year.

I mean they lost to the chiefs on the road by an inch and blow a 10 point 4th quarter lead with 10 minutes left. They are clearly a “very good” 0-2 team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregg Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 5 minutes ago, Augie said: I feel dirty cheering for the Cowboys, but such is life. Both teams need the game. McCarthy is already on shaky ground as he is coaching without a contract for next year. I am sure Jerry was pissed watching his team get beat 44-19. As for the Ravens they are playing for their season. Can't go 0-3 and expect to make the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
