1. Teams that deserve to be in the top half of the league should not lose to the Jags.

2. We haven't played a good offense.



I want to see our defense stop a good running team... Oh hey, look, it's the league leading rushing team.
I don't count Week 1, as that was basically preseason for every team. Most teams did not fully look themselves that week.
As for offense, the Colts have played a top 10 offense, with a good rushing attack. The Vikings have averaged 425 yards offense/game outside the Colts. That would be good for 8th in the NFL. And Cook for them have really ran well also. They've also averaged over 30 points/game outside Indy's game. If it wasn't for Indy, the Vikings would be a top 10 offense in nearly every category.
As for power rankings, I think they are funny, because most of them are made by people who only watch the highlights, and see stats. Don't actually watch EVERY game, especially the smaller, 'under the radar' teams. I just made the parody because when I saw NFL .com actually dropped Indy in the rankings, and had moved a 2-2 team in front of them instead, after beating an undefeated team, I figured something needed to be said.
