Comments:

  • So, the Chiefs are the final unbeaten team in the league. They didn't look like that much Sunday, though. And I think their lack of offense will cost them when it comes to playoff time.

  • And with the Giants getting the win, that leaves the Bucs and Jags as the two final 0-fers. Barring a fluke upset, it could be a while before we see either of them get a win.

  • The Broncos' loss costs them some power, but the formerly #2 Chiefs can't capitalize because of their close home win against the very low ranked Texans.

  • Maybe it's just fan pessimism (and knoweldge of how many key guys are hurt right now), but I'm not sure the Packers belong in the top 5 right now. On the other hand, it looks like they've got a pretty easy schedule. They won't play a team in less trouble at least until Thanksgiving.

  • Wow, APR really likes the Cowboys. There's no way they belong in the top 10 right now. If the Eagles had been able to manage anything resembling an offense Sunday, that game would've been a lot closer.

  • I was thinking last week, maybe the Jaguars had bottomed out on power. The way APR is implemented, there's only so low a team can go before it gets a certain amount of power-by-association just for taking the field against another team. But this week, APR's bottom three teams all managed to lose power.
