2008 NFL Season Analysis: Rankings and Predictions

Mike Craig's Power Rankings (1-32)

1. Tennessee Titans (10-0)

When two old quarterbacks meet in Tennessee this Sunday, will the Titans remain undefeated?

 

2. New York Giants (9-1)

Do the Giants have what it takes to repeat?

 

3. Arizona Cardinals (7-3)

Is it just me, or does it seem like the Cardinals should have spent more of their money on Anquan Boldin than anywhere else?

 

4. Carolina Panthers (8-2)

Do they need to set some explosives off or something in order to get people's attention?

 

5. New York Jets (7-3)

How can you not believe in Brett Favre and the Jets after that performance?

 

6. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (7-3)

Does it really matter that they don't always win pretty?

 

7. Pittsburgh Steelers (7-3)

Why do people care wither or not the touchdown was there or not, didn't the Steelers win?

 

8. Miami Dolphins (6-4)

Will Miami win five straight when they head to New England this Sunday?

 

9. Denver Broncos (6-4)

Their record may be 6-4, but is this team really legit?

 

10. Atlanta Falcons (6-4)

Sure he makes SOME rookie mistakes; however, how well is Matt Ryan going to be now that all the rest of the games matter?

 

11. Indianapolis Colts (6-4)

Do I sense a resurgence?

 

12. Minnesota Vikings (5-5)

This team is on such a roller coaster, how do we know that there are other players on the team other than Adrian Peterson?

 

13. New England Patriots (6-4)

At 2-2 in the division, are they going to let Miami beat them again?

 

14. Dallas Cowboys (6-4)

Now that Tony Romo and his pinkie are back, will they be contenders again?

 

15. Green Bay Packers (5-5)

When this offense is rolling, it is scary to see what happens. Will Ryan Grant and Aaron Rodgers be able to keep it up for 10 more games (if they win their next six and enter the playoffs)?

 

16. Baltimore Ravens (6-4)

What happened Sunday during the Giants?

 

17. Washington Redskins (6-4)

How do you expect to make the playoffs if you keep losing?

 

18. Cleveland Browns (4-6)

Is Brady Quinn the answer?

 

19. Philadelphia Eagles (5-4-1)

Will they start giving NFL players a test on the rule book so everybody knows about overtime during the regular season?

 

20. Jacksonville Jaguars (4-6)

Are the Jaguars really bottom feeder material?

 

21. Chicago Bears (5-5)

How does a No. 4-ranked rush defense allow 200 total yards rushing and 5.3 yards per carry (especially to a team that is in the bottom in rush offense)?

 

22. New Orleans Saints (5-5)

Will they throw in the towel, or keep on trying as they face Green Bay on Monday night?

 

23. Buffalo Bills (5-5)

With four straight loses now, will they be able to catch themselves falling and climb back up?

 

24. San Diego Chargers (4-6)

How many close games are they going to lose before they realize that this isn't golf?

 

25. Houston Texans (3-7)

Will they ever start living up to their hype?

 

26. San Francisco 49ers (3-7)

Congratulations, you beat the Rams. Think you can do that with Dallas?

 

27. Seattle Seahawks (2-8)

So who thinks Mike Holmgren will retire in the middle of the season?

 

28. St. Louis Rams (2-8)

What happened to that two game surge that made this team look like a contender?

 

29. Cincinnati Bengals (1-9-1)

Will they ever catch a break?

 

30. Kansas City Chiefs (1-9)

Are they just trying to make it look like they are trying, or are they really just playing for respect now?

 

31. Oakland Raiders (2-8)

What do you think Al Davis? Was firing the coach the right direction? I don't see any difference.

 

32. Detroit Lions (0-10)

I wonder when the Lions will realize that the numbers are in the wrong column?
