Patriots

1-0

Will the Patriots be doing the Merriman "Lights Out" dance once again this year? It may be a lot harder this week for the Patriots without video of their opponent's defensive signals.  The Patriots are still the undisputed choice right now for the Lombardi trophy and will be even better once Harrison and Seymour come back.
2 2 Colts

1-0

The Colts made a powerful statement in their title defense against the Saints in Week 1.  The defense has their hands full with Vince Young this week.
3 4 Chargers

1-0

Grudge match of the year this week for the Chargers. This week's game has been circled on the Chargers calendar since the 2007 NFL schedule came out.  This is Norv Turner's biggest game as a head coach.
4 3 Bears

0-1

The Bears get their chance to bounce back this week against the Chiefs. The Bears did a fantastic job limiting LT last week and need to do the same this week against Larry Johnson. The Bears suffered 2 key season ending injuries to defensive starters Mike Brown and Dusty Dvoracek in Week 1.
5 7 Steelers

1-0

The Steelers get an injured Buffalo team this week and then face three NFC West opponents. They could have the best record in the NFL come week 6.
6 8 Cowboys

1-0

Jason Garrett's play calling picked apart the Giants defense, but it looks like Wade Phillips forgot to bring the defensive playbook with him from San Diego.  Dallas may be a little overrated at the 6th spot.
7 5 Saints

0-1

The Saints offense was kept in check against the Colts.  Luckily for them, they get the Buccaneers this week.  The Saints beat them 31-14 at Tampa last year.
8 11 Bengals

1-0

Chad Johnson's hall of fame TD celebration was great entertainment. 
Watch Video
9 12 Broncos

1-0

It looks like the Broncos motto this year will be "Just Win Ugly"
10 6 Ravens

0-1

This team is simply getting too old. Already into week 2 with McNair & Lewis questionable.
11 9 Eagles

0-1

Teams around the league are catching on to the McNabb to Westbrook screen passes. The Eagles will need someone on the receiving core to step up against a tough Redskins secondary this week.
12 15 Seahawks

1-0

The Seahawks had the most bone crushing hits on defense this weekend.
13 16 Titans

1-0

A very impressive week 1 road victory for the Titans. The Titans split the season series last year with the Colts with both games being decided by 3 points or less.
14 10 Jaguars

0-1

Disappointing loss to start the Garrard era. The rushing yards given up by the Jags defense was a huge surprise last week.
15 13 Jets

0-1

Tough to win when the opponent knows your defensive signals. However, that is no excuse for the 108 yard kickoff return.
16 20 Panthers

1-0

Delhomme was sharp in his first game and Drew Carter established himself as the 2nd receiver on the Panthers.
17 19 49ers

1-0

The 49ers are definitely much improved on defense.  The 49ers secondary limited Fitzgerald and Boldin to just 42 total receiving yards. The 49ers travel to St Louis this week.
18 21 Vikings

1-0

Adrian Peterson is the real deal.  The Vikings will win a lot of games using old style pound the football with the running game this year.
19 24 Packers

1-0

The Packers are much improved on defense.  However, the offense needs some new plays. The play with Brett Favre completing a pass for 20 yards while being spun around in a 360 and in the clutches of a defender isn't always going to work.
20 14 Rams

0-1

The Greatest Show on Turf was supposed to be back. However, the loss of Orlando Pace for the season is a huge downer for the Rams. 
21 25 Texans

1-0

The Texans seem to be headed in the right direction.  A tough road game against the Panthers will be a good challenge for the Texans this week.
22 26 Redskins

1-0

Last time Washington won on Monday night was when Brunell hooked up twice with Santana Moss.
23 17 Dolphins

0-1

Same old song and dance for the Dolphins. A banged up Dallas D may give the Dolphins offense some life this week.
24 18 Giants

0-1

Tom Coughlin's is in a rough situation with a banged up Eli Manning and Jacobs lost for at least 3-5 weeks.
25 31 Lions

1-0

The Lions defensive front was very dominant against the Raiders and the offense clicked. The Lions make the biggest leap this week simple because the 7 teams below them are not headed in the right direction.
26 22 Chiefs

0-1

The Chiefs have yet to win a preseason or regular season game this year.
27 23 Bills

0-1

Encouraging news came out on Tuesday about the condition of TE Kevin Everett. He was able to voluntarily move his arms and legs. The Bills have suffered a tough Week 1 and it doesn't get any easier with upcoming games against Pittsburgh, New England, Jets and Dallas.
28 27 Raiders

0-1

Word is Culpepper may get the nod this week as starting QB. Janikowski needs to work on drawing the ball instead of hitting fades.
29 28 Cardinals

0-1

The crushing losses continue for the Cardinals in 2007. How long before Ken Whisenhunt has a Dennis Green breakdown?
30 29 Buccaneers

0-1

Jeff Garcia deserves better. After the hit he took in the Seattle game, it looks like it may be a long season for the veteran QB. Carnell Williams may be out for Week 2.
31 30 Browns

0-1

Make way for Brady Quinn, Frye is gone to Seattle. I'd guess Quinn gets his chance following the bye week against St Louis.
32 32 Falcons

0-1

Matt Schaub must be very happy that he is not in Atlanta right now.
