As far as the rankings are concerned, if he had his top 5 that way, I don't have a problem with it. Peyton hands down is probably everyone's top pick. This league is all about "what have you done for me lately"... Rivers and Johnson have been tearing it up while Drew has been a little slump. I don't see why anyone would see that as a slap in the face towards Drew and Saints fans. Would it make that big of a difference if he was ranked 2nd or 3rd as opposed to 4th? There's no consolation prize. I don't see why there needs to be drama over this.

Don't get me wrong Papz, I agree with the unpredictable NFC. And my statements aren't completely directed towards him. My problem is with these "BANDWAGON SPORTS REPORTERS". That's right, bandwagon. It seems like whoever wins, week to week, all the sudden they all jump on, talking about how great they are, and how they are the team to beat. Just like when Arizona beat the holy heck outta Minnesota, the next day, "the team to beat in the NFC is Arizona, hands down!" Until they lost to San Francisco, the very next week, then all the sudden, "they are in trouble".

I just think alot of this analysis is not only a bag of crap, but completely unnecessary. That's why I have stopped watching ESPN as much, and turned to NFL Network. They do analysis, but they keep it within reason.
