NFL Power Rankings: Post-Week 2

Mark appears to have been right about me overrating the Jags. The fallout from a week where I posted just an 8-6-2 against the spread.
(Record, Last week)
1. New England (1-0, 1): Randy Moss is trying. Uh-oh.
2. San Diego (1-0, 2): They didn't put up 30, but they did get the win.
3. Indianapolis (1-0, 6): Apparently, the Colts knew what they were doing when they let all those guys go.
4. Baltimore (0-1, 3): Fire Billick and I may move them up a spot. Seriously, anyone ever heard of running the ball inside the 10? Still, they turned the ball over six times on the road and only lost by 7. Personnel shifts this weekend?
5. Cincinnati (1-0, 7): A win is a win. I expect 10 more.
6. Denver (1-0, 5): See a win is a win. Watch for more good things from this much-maligned D.
7. Pittsburgh (1-0, 9): I would've been more impressed if they had played LSU on Sunday.
8. Seattle (1-0, 10): Shaun Alexander starts a new year the best way, a 100-yard day.
9. Chicago (0-1, 8): Defense will win a lot of games, especially in NFC.
10. Buffalo (0-1, 14): Lee Evans didn't do much, but they could've beat Denver.
11. Philadelphia (0-1, 13): Moved to address punt return problem.
12. Dallas (1-0, 16): Offense impressed. Defense? Ugh.
13. Green Bat (1-0, 18): Is Pack back? Few remember they were 8-8 last year.
14. Jacksonville (0-1, 4): 13 carries for Jones-Drew and Taylor. Del Rio should be cut.
15. Carolina (1-0, 21): Let the hype begin.
16. St. Louis (0-1, 11): I bought into that offense?
17. New Orleans (0-1, 12): Can use the long week.
18. N.Y. Jets (0-1, 15): And they have to play the Patriots again.
19. Tampa Bay (0-1, 17): Everyone loses at Seattle.
20. Washington (1-0, 21): Linebackers looked great.
21. Houston (1-0, 22): Schaub era begins with a win. Doubt it will end that way.
22. Minnesota (1-0, 25): It was the Falcons.
23. Tennessee (1-0, 29): Maybe they do have a defense.http://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gif
24. Detroit (0-1, 27): Trailed Oakland for much of last weeks game.
25. Arizona (0-1, 19): The 49ers are who we thought they were!
26. San Francisco (1-0, 26): I'm not buying last minute home win against Cards.
27. N.Y. Giants (0-1, 30): The first team offense can score, now to see what backups can do.
28. Miami (0-1, 24): Despite ugly performance, almost won.
29. Kansas City (0-1, 23): Can LJ play QB?
30. Oakland (0-1, 28): Vaunted defense torched at end of last week.
31. Cleveland (0-1, 31): Are they worth talking about?
32. Atlanta (0-1, 32): Three-touchdown loss to Minnesota is not going to help you move up.
