theTruthTeller Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 This guy's rankings are a complete joke, we win and drop in his rankings, while the Bills lose at home and move up 3 spots, and the Titans move from #26 to #14 with a late win as well. Those are just 2 examples of at least 5 or 6 that are laughable. Who the hell hires these guys? The changes in position make perfect sense. Last week the Skins were ranked 23rd and Miami was ranked 29; i.e., the Skins were favored. They win in OT at home - hence Skins go down one place, because they won by less than expected, and Miami goes up one place. The Skins are still ranked higher than the Fins, but by a lesser margin, because they tied in regulation. The Titans moved to 14, because they beat a team that was previously ranked 15. They also won in Jacksonville. They move up, Jacksonville moves down to 16. So there is a small spread between them that reflects the small margin of victory. I'm really not sure why everyone seems to think that beating the 29th ranked team at home in OT justifies any more than a 23 ranking, any more than the Lions should be ranked higher for beating Oakland.

theivorhick Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Just adds fuel to the fires guys. I love seeing our guys play with something to prove. It seems like there is a fire lit under em' and, to be honest, it gets me a little excited. Only time will tell if it is in vain. But, as of now, compared to last year, have we really got anything to lose?? HAIL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ucfSKINS Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 awesome. fox sports is #1, or i guess #24 if they did a good job? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 So let me get this straight. We lose a spot after beating the Dolphins. The Dolphins lose to us but move up a spot. Ok, got it. :doh: They expected us to beat them more. Nothing complicated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Right now we're better then half of the league. Spot 16 at a minimum until proven otherwise. Hey, the only team we beat hasn't won a game all year. Guys, it's Week 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#98QBKiller Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Based on his comments it sounds as though he's pretty optimistic about us, I have no idea how we fell that low. And it's insulting to be placed after the ****ing Cardinals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[[ghost]] Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 This is GOOD news. Just as Portis said- let us sneak up on the NFL. Its like 05 again, only we're playing like a team possessed in week 1 instead of week 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedBNG Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Aw, c'mon... we're better than this years Jets and Cardinals. Does Schrager got a man crush on Lienhart or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deejaydana Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 The Bills, Jets and likely the Cards will all have the wheels come off their ride very shortly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyriggins Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Good post Larry:) I dont know what some of you other guys are on? We beat Miami! At the end of regulation the score was still tied. Somehow they took us to overtime. And we won the coin toss! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
