2-0-1 Lions finally get some respect, with the highest move up the ranks (7 spots) from #20 to #13. Was surprised b/c they seem to be loathe to move certain teams significantly down or up the ladder in one week b/c of their historic reps and ESPN's own bias.

They belatedly moved one of the Lions victims in the now 1-2 Chargers down from #10 to #16 b/c they lost again, and the Lions latest victims in the 1-2 Eagles also dropped by 6 spots from #9 to #15. Preseason pundit rave faves in the 1-2 Browns haven't lived up to to the hype, and dropped one spot to #20.

I think they have the Lions too high. Although they have not lost a game they only have a +6 point differential. I'll give them some respect if the can beat KC this week.
