Here are the week 3 Power Rankings, as decided by..well, me. Records aren’t everything so I don’t want to hear any complaints about Jacksonville being 3-0. I’d take Indy to beat them every single day of the week and twice on Sundays. Wait a minute, look what’s coming up this weekend: Jaguars vs Colts. If the Jags can beat the Colts, I’ll danced naked through the next snowstorm we get here.
| Rank | Team | Record | Comment |
| 1 |  |
2-0 | Until the Patsies lose a game (which is coming up soon), they’re staying at #1. |
| 2 |  |
3-0 | Best offense in the league. And playing Detroit solves the “can’t stop the run” gripes. |
| 3 |  |
3-0 | The Walrus is finally living up to coaching expectations. |
| 4 |  |
2-1 | Peyton Manning easily wins a shootout with Old Man Favre. If they don’t play NE, they’re fine. |
| 5 |  |
2-0 | Curtis Martin rises from the dead! Curtis Martin rises from the dead! Probably best late round fantasy pickup this year. |
| 6 |  |
2-1 | Rebounded nicely from the Monday Night loss but beating the Bears is no big accomplishment. |
| 7 |  |
2-1 | I guess if you can do it with Trent Dilfer, you can do it with Kyle Boller. |
| 8 (tie) |  |
3-0 | Perhaps one of the worst 3-0 teams in the history of the league. Good defense. Not good enough. |
| 8 (tie) |  |
3-0 | What the hell was that against Arizona? The Michael Vick Experience right now isn’t worth the wait in line. |
| 10 |  |
2-1 | Ashley Lelie spotted! Too bad Quentin did a disappearing act. |
| 11 |  |
2-1 | Still own the Skins. Maybe that’s why Gibbs snubbed Parcells in the post game handshake. |
| 12 |  |
2-1 | Nice last minute comeback but Saints are always set to implode. |
| 13 |  |
1-1 | Yawwwwwwwnnnnn. |
| 14 |  |
2-1 | Kerry Collins probably should have gotten the starting job from the get go anyway. Nice show of class by the Raiders fans to honor Timmy Brown, even if he is a whiny little bitch. |
| 15 |  |
2-1 | Middle of the pack seems right for this overachieving team. Does anyone else think that NFL Network Newlywed commercial hits too close to home? |
| 16 |  |
2-1 | Ben R. is going to be good but what the hell was that first INT vs Miami. Looked more like Kordell on that one. (Oh sorry, am I not supposed to bring him up, Pittsburgh?) |
| 17 |  |
1-2 | The Favre magic is done. What was Sherman thinking when he decided to get in a shootout with Manning? |
| 18 |  |
2-1 | When does Roy Williams start spelling his own name as R.O.Y.? |
| 19 |  |
1-2 | Tough to say whether Carson Palmer is the real deal. Just played two of the toughest Defenses in the league but Cleveland is coming up. |
| 20 |  |
1-2 | Here we go with the ‘McNair will play…McNair won’t play’ crap that has fantasy owners going nuts. Either way, hard to believe they were considered one of the teams to challenge NE coming into the season. |
| 21 |  |
1-2 | Hey Gibbs, shouldn’t you look at a man when you shake his hand? And by the way, the play clock is now 40 seconds. |
| 22 |  |
1-2 | The Mad Genius gets worked with 24 seconds left in the game. Is FireMikeMartz.com up and running yet? |
| 23 |  |
1-2 | A couple more losses and Marty can justify putting Rivers in. |
| 24 |  |
1-2 | Carr isn’t going to cut his hair until Houston makes the playoffs. So, in about 2 years. |
| 25 |  |
1-2 | How does Cleveland beat Baltimore but then lay two eggs against Dallas and NY? Maybe Kellen Winslow? |
| 26 |  |
1-2 | Quinn is the starting QB. Hmmm… maybe I should put them last. |
| 27 |  |
0-3 | Really outplayed Atlanta and should have won that game. Too bad McCown got a case of Culpepperitis. |
| 28 |  |
0-3 | Man, we’re going to have to put up with the waterworks from Dick Vermeil all season. Has a team ever gone from 9-0 to 0-9? |
| 29 |  |
0-2 | The defense is so good, they knocked out their own QB-of-the-future for the season. |
| 30 |  |
0-3 | They’re not a good team but they probably don’t belong down here with Miami and TB. |
| 31 |  |
0-3 | You can’t blame Wanny for Ricky retiring. But you can blame him for not putting together a team with any balance whatsoever. |
| 32 |  |
0-3 | Tampa Bay finally realized their roots and went back to being a doormat. |
