You think the fans in Green Bay enjoyed that Miami-Minnesota game last Sunday? Does the pope kiss Mexican runways?<\/p>\n

This week\u2019s rankings . . .<\/strong><\/h3>\n

1. Green Bay Packers (2-0) Last Week (1)<\/strong> \u2013 Win over the Bears on Monday night would give Pack a\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0stranglehold on the division only three weeks in<\/p>\n

2. New Orleans Saints (2-0) Last Week (2)<\/strong> \u2013 Guess this just isn\u2019t Reggie Bush\u2019s season in the sun<\/p>\n

3. Indianapolis Colts (1-1) Last Week (5)<\/strong> \u2013 A new contract for Manning? The silence on this issue is deafening.<\/p>\n

4. Houston Texans (2-0) Last Week (6) <\/strong>\u2013 Raise your hand if you believe suspended left tackle Duane Brown took that PED \u201cunknowingly.\u201d<\/p>\n

5. Pittsburgh Steelers (2-0) Last Week (7)<\/strong> \u2013 Hey, 2-0 and we don\u2019t even have a quarterback! Life is good<\/p>\n

6. Miami Dolphins (2-0) Last Week (16)<\/strong> \u2013 In the next two weeks (Jets and Patriots), the Dolphins have a great chance to stake out the high ground in the AFC East.<\/p>\n

7. Baltimore Ravens (1-1) Last Week (4) <\/strong>\u2013 John Harbaugh should know that contact with officials crosses a line.<\/p>\n

8. New England Patriots (1-1) Last Week (3)<\/strong> \u2013 Brandon Jacobs would look good on this team, which struggles to run the ball<\/p>\n

9. Chicago Bears (2-0) Last Week (20)<\/strong> \u2013 Bears fans should send a thank-you card to the coaching staff, which changed its blocking schemes early in last week\u2019s game and basically saved Jay Cutler\u2019s life.<\/p>\n

10. Kansas City Chiefs (2-0) Last Week (18)<\/strong> \u2013 Total on KC is 36.5. KC is moving the ball well but scoring is down as Chiefs settle for field goals. Go over on that number.<\/p>\n

11. San Diego Chargers (1-1) Last Week (11)<\/strong> \u2013 AFC West is filled with fiery coaches. Haley, McDaniels, Cable, Turn . . . never mind. \"Sports<\/a><\/p>\n

12. New York Jets (1-1) Last Week (19) <\/strong>\u2013 Memo to Jets fans: You are now free to resume fawning over your team<\/p>\n

13. Cincinnati Bengals (1-1) Last Week (21)<\/strong> \u2013 Why does everyone in the AFC North have such a tough time with these guys?<\/p>\n

14. Minnesota Vikings (0-2) Last Week (12)<\/strong> \u2013 Prediction: After Week 8 the Vikings fall to 3-5 with a loss in New England. Favre limps off the field and, rather than risk ending his consecutive-games-started streak, quits for good. It would happen a week earlier but Favre won\u2019t give Green Bay the satisfaction of finishing him off.<\/p>\n

15. New York Giants (1-1) Last Week (8) <\/strong>\u2013 Two games as a member of the team and safety Antrel Rolle is already questioning the game plans, coaches and lack of locker room leadership<\/p>\n

16. Arizona Cardinals (1-1) Last Week (9) <\/strong>\u2013 Here\u2019s all you need to know about the Cardinals: They gave up 21 first downs to Atlanta in the first half last Sunday<\/p>\n

17. Dallas Cowboys (0-2) Last Week (10)<\/strong> \u2013 Can the Cowboys still be America\u2019s Team if they lose Sunday to Houston and aren\u2019t even Texas\u2019s team?<\/p>\n

18. Seattle Seahawks (1-1) Last Week (13)<\/strong> \u2013 You know that scene in Friday Night Lights where the whacko father duct-tapes the football to his son\u2019s hands after the kids fumbles in practice? Three TOs on the road won\u2019t get you too far in this league.<\/p>\n

19. Washington Redskins (1-1) Last Week (15) <\/strong>\u2013 Clinton Portis now says his comments regarding female reporters were \u201cthe truth.\u201d If so, why did he issue an apology?<\/p>\n

20. Jacksonville Jaguars (1-1) Last Week (14)<\/strong> \u2013 Jags take a turn at trying to slow down Michael Vick. Have fun<\/p>\n

21.\u00a0Oakland Raiders (1-1) Last Week (32) <\/strong>\u2013 As of Wednesday Tom Cable said he knew who his starting QB would be but wasn\u2019t going to tell anyone. Good grief. Now he\u2019s imitating Eric Mangini.<\/p>\n

22. Tennessee Titans (1-1) Last Week (17) <\/strong>\u2013 Chris Johnson wants to run for 2,500 yards this season. He might be pretty close this week against the Giants in New York.<\/p>\n

23. San Francisco 49ers (0-2) Last Week (22)<\/strong> \u2013 The Niners can spin it any way they want, but anyone with two eyes can see that they are not as good defensively as they were at the end of last season.<\/p>\n

24.\u00a0Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-0) Last Week (29) <\/strong>\u2013 Get the feeling that after the Steelers finish up on Sunday, Josh Freeman will need to sleep in Monday morning.<\/p>\n

25. Philadelphia Eagles (1-1) Last Week (23) <\/strong>\u2013 So much for the old adage that in the NFL a player can\u2019t lose his starting job to an injury<\/p>\n

26. Atlanta Falcons (1-1) Last Week (24)<\/strong> \u2013 Not exactly sure how to read it, but Tony Gonzalez has only four catches this season<\/p>\n

27. Denver Broncos (1-1)<\/strong> \u2013 Home vs. Indianapolis, at Tennessee, at Baltimore, home vs. Jets. A 2-2 split would keep Broncos in the thick of it in the West.<\/p>\n

28. Detroit Lions (1-1) Last Week (26)<\/strong> \u2013 Do you also get the feeling that the Lions will be acftive dogs this week in Minnesota?<\/p>\n

29. Buffalo Bills (0-2) Last Week (27)<\/strong> \u2013 The offense looks about as alive as the owner<\/p>\n

30. Carolina Panthers (0-2) Last Week (28)<\/strong> \u2013 The lockout can\u2019t come soon enough for this franchise<\/p>\n

31. St. Louis Rams (0-2) Last Week (30) <\/strong>\u2013 Fading the Rams can get you a long way in the office survivor pool<\/p>\n

32.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Cleveland Browns (0-2) Last Week (31) <\/strong>\u2013 If this was baseball, Holmgren would have a couple of coaches warming up in the bullpen.<\/p>\n
