First off, the New York Giants. Wow this team can score. Wow this team can defend. Wow this team can also turn the f’n ball over. While starting this post, I had the Giants ranked as high as number five and then Eli Manning threw another interception. That’s when I thought damn if the Giants played any team other then the Cowboys they would of gotten murdered tonight. They might be the first top ten team win and drop in my rankings, EVER! If they can solve their ball control issues they’ll be the best in the NFC with ease.

Speaking of the Cowboys, how bad are they? Even with Tony Romo they were a joke but now Jon Kitna???? Get ready for them to challenge the Buffalo Bills for the #1 pick in the 2011 NFL Draft.

And on that note, I firmly believe the Bills will win a game this year. Think about it, they almost caught the Ravens sleeping this weekend. It was a classic trap game and Baltimore almost fell for it.

There is one team, I think will surprise ALL NFL fans down the stretch and that’s the Oakland Raiders. Yes, their 59 point performance was against the Denver Broncos but they do have talent. This game could of been the one that makes those guys realize they can compete. And you know what? With a running back like Darren McFadden they could easily keep putting some wins on the board.

So my last thoughts, which I guess really should of been my first is this…. How dominating is the AFC. Eight of the top ten teams are from the AFC, including the TOP SIX!!! Some would argue the teams in the NFC are just that close in talent but it really doesn’t hold much weight. In non-Conference play, the top AFC teams have just crushed the top NFC teams. The AFC is just that much better, really.
