NFL.com has us at 9 which is ridiculous. I hope we are that good, but realistically the offense is not good enough to be that high

Power Rankings are a joke, they are a reflection of how much media attention a team is getting, and most of the time that is based off of a record.

ESPN had the Falcons and Dolphins as the last place teams on their rankings before the start of the '08 season and both teams made the playoffs. The important rankings are those in your division.

Agree!

We beat the Vikings, we'll be in the top 10.

Although I sort of agree with these rankings, Denver is getting way too much respect for winning a game on one of the biggest luck plays we will see this season. Yea, they beat up on a team the next week but we beat the defending NFC Champs and then beat a team picked by many to win the west.
