20. Baltimore Ravens [3-3]: Staying in the mix in the suddenly-mediocre AFC due to a defense which seemingly gets older AND better. [+4]
21. New York Jets [3-3]: Gotta wonder if Brett Favre would have come back for another season if he knew he was going to lose to the godawful Raiders. [-2]
22. Houston Texans [2-4]: Narrow wins over bad teams like Miami and Detroit don’t impress much. [+4]
23. St. Louis Rams [2-4]: Jim Haslett — “Conqueror of the NFC Beast” — for coach of the year! [+5]
24. Minnesota Vikings [3-4]: I don’t understand why Head Coach Brad Childress called 50 pass plays for Gus Frerotte? Did he expect something besides 4 interceptions? ‘Cause let me tell you, Coach, I could have called that one from a mile away. [-3]
25. Cleveland Browns [2-4]: Shut down Miami’s Wildcat formation [with TB Ronnie Brown behind center in the shotgun formation], essentially ending the game. [-3]
26. Miami Dolphins [2-4]: Turns out that the Wildcat formation is the only way the offense can score. [-3]
27. San Francisco 49ers [2-5]: New Head Coach Mike Singletary provides hope for the future, but one wonders what the great “Samurai Mike” did to deserve this lousy team. [-1]
28. Oakland Raiders [2-4]: New head coach got a win this week. I hope he doesn’t get used to that. [+2]
29. Seattle Seahawks [1-5]: Happy you stuck around another year, Coach Holmgren? [-2]
30. Kansas City Chiefs [1-5]: Gave up 332 rushing yards in one game last Sunday. That’s like a Troy State v. University of Alabama game. [-1]
31. Cincinnati Bengals [0-7]: News that the WNBA would not admit the Bengals as a member must sting a bit. [NC]
32. Detroit Lions [0-6]: 2 words: They suck. [NC]
