Week 14 Power RankingsDecember 2, 2008
Previous week’s ranking in parenthesis
32. Detroit Lions 0-12 (32)
At least this is a team for the ages.
31. Cincinnati Bengals 1-10-1
Can’t tell the difference between their starting lineup and injured list these days.
30. Oakland Raiders 3-9 (26)
Hahahahahahahahaha
29. Seattle Seahawks 2-10 (28)
We keep hearing that Matt Hasselbeck is getting healthy. So what?
28. Kansas City Chiefs 2-10 (31)
Not sure we can call their last one a win, but at least they were present for the Raider loss.
27. St. Louis Rams 2-10 (30)
At this point, they’re counting the close losses as victories.
26. Jacksonville Jaguars 4-8 (24)
This defense quit on Monday night.
25. San Diego Chargers 4-8 (22)
Fire him.
24. San Francisco 49ers…
Week 13 Power RankingsNovember 25, 2008
32. Detroit Lions 0-11 (previous rank: 32)
Let’s go ahead and rank them 33rd simply for symbolic purposes.
31. Kansas City Chiefs 1-10 (previous rank: 28)
Not to call out one guy – and a good guy – but where has Tamba Hali been this year?
30. St. Louis Rams 2-9 (previous rank: 31)
If they could lose in practice, they probably would.
29. Cincinnati Bengals 1-9-1 (previous rank: 29)
Is there anyone out there who still thinks they shouldn’t dump Chad Johnson?
28. Seattle Seahawks 2-9 (previous rank: 27)
God bless the Seattle fans. The city is enduring perhaps the worst sports year in history, but Qwest Field was still rockin’ last Sunday.
27. San Francisco 49ers…
Sunday Snide Remarks - Week 12 Late GamesNovember 24, 2008
**Thanksgiving Games Note**
There is a scheduling flaw in the Thanksgiving games. Both the Cowboys and Lions had home games on Sunday. That’s not fair because their opponents this Thursday will have to travel. The NFL should force the Cowboys and Lions to play on the road before their Thursday game, that way both teams facing off Thursday will have had to travel in some form on the short week.
Indianapolis Colts 23, San Diego Chargers 20
- Wanna know why the Chargers have lost four games inside the final 24 seconds this year? Because of things like the timeout they called right before Nate Kaeding’s game-tying field goal. With more than half…
Week 12 Power RankingsNovember 18, 2008
32. Detroit Lions 0-10 (previous ranking: 32)
At least they’re forming one heck of a storyline for the Thanksgiving game.
31. St. Louis Rams 2-8 (previous ranking: 29)
The defense has tanked the season.
30. Oakland Raiders 2-8 (previous ranking: 31)
Al Davis’s legendary club is movin’ on up in the rankings.
29. Cincinnati Bengals 1-8-1 (previous ranking: 30)
So bad that even when they don’t lose, they still can’t find a way to win.
28. Kansas City Chiefs 1-9 (previous ranking: 28)
Chiefs fans probably don’t care, but this might all be worth it if they wind up finding a franchise quarterback in Tyler Thigpen.
27. Seattle Seahawks 2-8 (previous ranking: 27)
A classic case of a lost…
Sunday Snide Remarks - Week 11 Late GamesNovember 17, 2008
Dallas Cowboys 14, Washington Redskins 10
- Marion Barber gave one of the great running back performances in the NFL this season. He rushed for 66 of his 114 yards in the fourth quarter and touched the ball on Dallas’s final 11 plays to ice the game. It was a season-saving effort from a gutsy leader.
- Terrell Owens had five receptions for 38 yards in this game. The physicality of the Washington defensive backs got to him a bit, but more than that, there was a lack of continuity between Tony Romo and all of his wide receivers. It’s worth noting that Owens has now gone five straight games without topping the…

Week 11 Power RankingsNovember 11, 2008
32. Detroit Lions (0-9)
More than halfway to history.
31. Oakland Raiders (2-7)
It takes a special team to find a way to lose when the opposing quarterback is 7/27 passing with four interceptions.
30. Cincinnati Bengals (1-8)
If they could have fallen to 1-9 on their bye week, they would have.
29. St. Louis Rams (2-7)
It’d be hard to get down 40-0 at halftime even if you were trying to throw the game.
28. Kansas City Chiefs (1-8)
They don’t win games, but you have to admire the way they’ve competed as of late.
27. Seattle Seahawks (2-7)
Playing Matt Hasselbeck at this point is the bonehead move of the year if the QB’s back…
Sunday Snide Remarks - Week 10 Early GamesNovember 10, 2008
Minnesota Vikings 28, Green Bay Packers 27
- Adrian Peterson! Adrian Peterson! Adrian Peterson!
- And on the flip side of that, No Cullen Jenkins! No Cullen Jenkins! No Cullen Jenkins!
- The only negative on Peterson’s afternoon was his fumble on a failed fourth-and-one attempt midway through the fourth quarter. And really, the negative there is on Brad Childress for listening to his runner and changing his mind about doing the wise thing, which was punting.
- Mike McCarthy made a huge blunder in settling for a 52-yard field goal. The Packers had enough time to try to get the ball closer, but McCarthy chose to make it tough on his kicker, Mason Crosby. Yes, Crosby…
