Where's the obligatory power rankings thread?

ESPN seems to always rank the Saints lower than the other polls.

NFL Power Rankings Week 3 - National Football League - ESPN

Some interesting stats about Carolina. With all they've invested in that defense it's still not where it should be.

so with that ranking, which bowl game do the Saints get to play in? They got to be at least a dark horse for the BCS championship game

Ive never heard of those lol.

I would put us around 15. Too early and too many teams that could just as easily be 2-0 as opposed to 0-2. That works both ways. The margin of victory for most of these games has been very small.

Not too very long ago the Saints would have been 0-2 the way they are playing.

I agree that a Top 10 ranking is too high; probably should be 10-15.

I think a lot of people just assume the offense will be the same ol' top 3 offense that it's been for 7 years now. They see that the defense looks improved so they're making the assumption that the Saints are a top 5 team.

Winning the close games that they are supposed to win are the difference between a playoff team and a non playoff team. You are right I have seen many many games in the past would have laid an egg.

Soooo, if you're putting the Saints between 10-15, do you have the Pats and KC ahead on your list?

Because some of the undefeated teams are awful, especially the Pats. You can put the Dolphins in that category too.
