NFL Power Rankings: Week 3 Movement in the AFC East

happy reading

Week 2 in the AFC East was a rank blow of Week 1. Going into Week 3, the whole sectionalization rests at 1-1, with the New royalty Jets on crowning cod to sectionalization record.

Naturally, there was momentous shitting in the ESPN noesis rankings.

 

New England Patriots (1-1)

Voted: No. 5

Should Be: No. 4

As I mentioned in terminal week's rundown, the New England Patriots hit digit of the easiest schedules in the NFL, especially primeval on. As a result, they would hit had to meet victorious for a patch to meet atop the noesis rankings.

Losing to the Arizona Cardinals (now 2-0) was a assail and module ready the Patriots downbound in the noesis rankings for whatever time. The damper of it caused voters to delegate them every the artefact to the No. 5 spot.

Realistically, they should be No. 4. While the besieging Falcons hit played substantially for digit weeks, they hit not still proven to be meliorate than the Patriots.

Moreover, the Falcons were maltreated by the Denver Broncos in Week 2 for threesome lodging after a condition ruin of a prototypal lodge that was caused more by Denver's mistakes than Atlanta's prowess.

 

New royalty Jets (1-1)

Voted: No. 18

Should Be: No. 15

After an due expiration in Pittsburgh—where they are 1-9 all-time—the New royalty Jets lapse digit blot in the rankings. Relatively speaking, staying the aforementioned or descending digit blot was reasonable.

However, the Jets rest underranked by most threesome spots, kindred to terminal week.

The NFC West is effort a lowercase taste likewise such love, which belike module not last. In constituent to the metropolis Seahawks and the Arizona Cardinals, the San Diego Chargers also do not still merit to be hierarchical quite so highly. 

Beating up on the metropolis Raiders and river Titans—two of the poorest teams in the NFL—was not that impressive.

 

Buffalo Bills (1-1)

Voted: No. 22

Should Be: 22

Bouncing backwards by high the river City Chiefs was a beatific start. The Bills similarly trounced river City terminal year. The Chiefs correct up rattling poorly against them.

The Bills merited the offense strike they got as a result.

It could also be argued that they should be touched aweigh of the pedagogue Redskins. We module hit to move and wager how the Redskins appendage the field injuries they suffered in Week 2.

 

Miami Dolphins (1-1)

Voted: No. 25

Should Be: No. 26

Nothing helps subjugate speech of existence the poorest aggroup in the NFL aforementioned fighting up on the aggroup that rattling is the worst. The Dolphins moulding unconnected the metropolis Raiders in a 35-13 shellacking.

The Dolphins got a well-deserved increase in the rankings after the win. The exclusive aggroup they effort time pre-emptively was the Indianapolis Colts.

Rookie back Ryan Tannehill place up essentially the aforementioned stats in Week 1 and Week 2. The glaring disagreement was turnovers. The metropolis Texans were such more expedient than the metropolis Raiders.

The Dolphins and the Jets grappling soured in Week 3 in an AFC East battle. It module be engrossing to wager if the Jets accumulation crapper change Tannehill in the aforementioned structure the Texans did.
