I agree with Pittsburgh as the top spot but for Atlanta, I feel either chicago or baltimore or the colts
let me make one for kicks
EDIT: Okay I did one and primarily I say road wins are important and then division wins and finally tie breakers between teams
32. Buffalo- Cut Edwards and now hopefully Harvard can pull through against USC
31. Detroit- After a week one debacle, they have been holding up strong against good teams although facing Green Bay is a different story altogether
30. San Francisco- My disappointment of 2010, firing the OC, hope they can at least show something against the Falcons
29. Cleveland- Losing to teams with better records at the moment, they are in limbo with QB's and Cincinnati comes in with momentum.
28. San Diego- As usual, they come out flat but seemingly without WR Jackson they seem weak behind Rivers, LT come back? Arizona comes in with a great receiver and a sustainable running game
27. Oakland- Campbell was no help but a missed FG cost them the previous game, but it won't be close when Houston comes in with a chip
26. Carolina- No Delhomme? Big problem, the coach has been getting the pass but sooner than later, he will get cut, RB's are their key, but lack of production has cost them the games, but the Saints will not give them the light of day
25. St. Louis- They might be ranked low but they need to prove against Seattle that they can be the 2008 Ravens or the 2009 N.Y. Jets but Jackson being out poses some questions
24. Jacksonville- After a week 1 win, they have been lackluster with their two losses to Philly and San Diego, they have a division foe in Indy, luckily they have been having good success against them maybe an upset? we'll see
23. N.Y. Giants- After a win over Carolina, they get blitzed by Philly and Tennessee added with Jacobs' not busting through the holes, it has put them in a big hole, and now da bears come in with their biggest win, watch for the Giants to re emerge or go to 1-3
22. Denver- Moreno out possibly for this week as was last week against the worst run D and now they face one of the toughest D's in the NFL with the running QB, cost for danger!
21. New England- Despite being 2-1, a big loss cost them a lot of spots so maybe a win against the injured phins could push them up higher
20. Minnesota- A big win over a weak Lions team and after the bye, it will be against the Jets, Favre old team, let's see how the gunslinger will prepare for them
19. Washington- After a win over Dallas, they have fell into 1-2 record, McNabb has been great but still the sporadic QB and coming back into Philly, let's see how he'll do against the D he has seen over his career
18. Seattle- With wins over SD and SF, they have put themselves as the front runners of the west now they have the Rams, which they might have some confidence after their first win, let's see they can shoot it up for 30 pts each
17. Dallas- Impressive win against Houston, needed for the Boys and now a bye week to lick their wounds before Tennessee
16. Indianapolis- Houston finally gets over the hump and Indy keeps rolling with the Peyton express and a new weapon for the Broncos, can they out do Jacksonville which has given them troubles recently
15. Green Bay- A huge loss to Chicago and now a get fat game with Detroit hopefully...
14. Baltimore- 2-1 despite wins over the Browns and the Jets, they have to face the Steelers possibly without their top RB but their passing game has been improving
13. Arizona- Three weeks into the post Warner era, they are sorely missing his arm but no excuse for lack of running, they have San Diego next, which should be a shoot it up game for them
12. Cincinnati- T.O. and Ochocinco should be racking the numbers up but gritty D has kept them through their 2-1 start and now Cleveland should help them
11. New Orleans- three games, all scored under 30 pts, the offense has been good but their D has been hurting and with a little hope they can get over the hump against Carolina
10. Atlanta- A big win over the Saints last weekend, now the 49ers come into town, should be easy pickin's for them
9. Tennessee- Chris Johnson racking up the yards and Vince Young become the QB they were looking for, watch for them against Denver, very important for their AFC chances
8. Tampa Bay- surprise, surprise, one year later, they click but Pittsburgh put them into their place now, with the bye week they get to prepare for the Bengals, not an easy matchup for them
7. Houston- Probably was the hottest teams before getting blitzed by the Cowboys, now an easier matchup with the Raiders, watch those balls fly
6. Kansas City- The chiefs are 3-0, problem the teams they beat are a combined 1-8, not very good but after the bye the AFC South, Indy, Houston, and Jacksonville, the first two on the other road
5. Miami- 2-0 on the road and 0-1 at home, they have another chance under the lights to show what they are made of, against the Pats, their Welker is just as good as the original but home field advantage shall rule
4. Chicago- Excellent win over the Pack but Cutler still has his mentality of slinging it, hopefully they can use their RB's against a weakened Giants D
3. N.Y. Jets- Big division wins over NE and Miami and now the Bills, but those Bills can play but won't get too far
2. Philadelphia- One word: Vick, he has been the catalyst to promote them to the highest part of the rankings, now the Skins' come back with McNabb, shall I say "Brotherly Love"?
1. Pittsburgh- I for one shall shut up, I thought Big Ben would cause a huge downfall but Dixon and Batch has brought them to 3-0 with the Ravens up next, they can give Big Ben the reins or keep it with Batch for continuity.
Big road wins= better ranking in my system so everyone can argue
