Lions a top 5....

[cheeno]

Team in the NFL according to Peter King...he is drunk off Koolaide. Too high after only 2 weeks?

5. Detroit (2-0). No other team in the NFL is close to the Lions' plus-52 point differential. And yes, the earth is off its axis.

still a little early....but the offense is scary with a healthy QB

You gotta love having 3rd and 18 with a QB and Linehan that will go down field instead of a dump off followed by a punt.

we really haven't played a top 15 team yet...lets hold off

I can maybe see top 10 but I just don't see them on the same level as teams like the

Patriots, Packers, Ravens, Saints, Falcons, Steelers, and Jets (despite their records)

just yet. Too small of a sample size IMO. I really hate power rankings early in the season.

I think we can beat the Jets. If it weren't for a hurt Staff, we would have last season. But yeah the others, I somewhat agree.

just a little too early. I want to see how well we play this week and especially at Dallas...

After the Monday Night game I will comment on if we are a top 5 team...

I will say that we do look top 10 right now...

 

[lions2011]

Ravens got pimp slapped by Matt Hassleback still unsure about that team...could be pretenders again.

 

[bunglesnacks]

there were 4 top teams: Atlanta, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, and Chicago that looked completely different from week 1 to week 2. Its hard to judge any of them.

Still hard to judge the Lions as well.

I wish they would wait till about week 5 to put out power rankings. It's cool to see us finally get a little love and all, but it's still early and just 2 games into the season.
