Hogs Haven

After week 5, and still 3 unbeaten teams... though, only barely.

The top 2 are still in a class of their own, mostly because they don't get caught up in the trap games.  Terry, before you say anything, your Cowboys will have a chance to change things this weekend at home against the Pats.

Without further ado:

1. NE - The best.  Period.
   
2. IND - Even without important starters (Sanders, Addai) they rolled a reeling TB team.
   
3. DAL - I was waiting for Denny Green to come out for Jauron: "They are who we thought they are.  And we let them off the hook!"

One loss teams:

4. PIT - By far the best one loss team.  Except for a hiccup against their former coaching staff, this team has dominated.  The BYE week should let them get some guys (Polamalu, Hampton, Holmes, Ward) healthy and ready to go.
   
5. GB - They finally start running the ball and they lose.  Farve did what he hadn't been doing: looking like an old Tony Romo and turned the ball over.
   
6. JAX - KC > ATL.
   
7. TEN - See above.
   
8. your WASHINGTON Redskins - If I was a homer, they'd jump the AFC South teams.  I'm tempted to do it out of objectivity after a beat down put on DET, a team much better than ATL and KC... combined.

The league gets muddy after the one loss teams:

9. NYG - The defense looks like it's been fixed.  I'm not sold on Eli and the offense.
   
10. HOU - They win without their best offensive weapons.  Those weapons get healthy and watch out.
    
11. BAL - They keep winning ugly.  I'm still waiting on this offense to get going.
    
12. SEA - Ran into the buzzsaw that is PIT.
    
13. TB - Ran into the buzzsaw that is IND.  The loss of the top 2 RBs will hurt.  I expect them to free fall from this spot.  But then again, I've learned not to doubt Garcia.
    
14. ARI - Warner has looked solid.  Edge is back with a little help from Wiz.
    
15. OAK - By default?  Or are they actually kinda good?

Best of the pack:

16. SD - Call me a sucker, but I think they turned the corner.
    
17. CLE - Out of it early, but gave NE a run for the spread.  No one else has.
    
18. CIN - Moved up by way of everyone else moving down.
    
19. DET - I doubt they'll only score 3 points in the coming weeks.  That D got exposed.
    
20. CHI
    
21. SF - The defense looks pretty solid.  As long as Dilfer is starting, they might be in trouble.
    
22. CAR - I watched Carr in HOU.  I know the fairy tale will end, they can't play winless teams every week.
    
23. KC
    
24. DEN - Yikes.  Ummm, go Rockies ?
    
25. PHI - I'm still waiting.
    
26. MIN

The rest:

27. ATL - QB controversey... and then there's the Vick thing.
    
28. NYJ - Had the decency to start their collapse in the 3rd quarter.
    
29. BUF - Nothing to say here.

And the (still) winless:

30. NO - Only 4 weeks of bad play gets them tops of this list.
    
31. STL - Frerotte sighting.  A healthy Gus looked rusty, but better than a beat up Bulger... as long as he doesn't hit a wall head first.
    
32. MIA - Green's career is in doubt.  His season, and the team's, aren't.  Ricky Williams anyone?

As always, let me have it in the comments.
