Colts defense is weak, it always has been, i dont think the cowboys should be there either. Steelers #1 though

Cincinnati is looking good as much as I hate to say this too. I think Ben is going to expose them real good next week and give them a real rude awakening.

Carolina, in my book, hasn't really done anything this year to be worthy of a top 5. I wouldn't put the Ravens in their spot though because they haven't played anyone yet, so maybe Chicago like Blitz said.

Other than that can't really argue the other picks especially the Steelers #1

Cowboys D is tough this year and last year, they're just on the field all the time so they get worn out.

You're right about the Bears, I completely forgot about them, they carried that team all last year !

Im not ready to give the ratbirds any props yet cuz they haven't played anyone who even remotely has an offense and they've got way to many penalities for a team that's supposed to be full of such veterans and big play makers.

After watching the Broncos the past 2 weeks, even though they are 1-1 their D can't be over looked. They haven't given up a TD in 2 straight games now, just 8 FG's which is what cost them the first game! The D looks really good though, now if they can get Plummer to get his head out of his butt!

I'd have to say the

Steelers
Bears
Chargers
Panthers (the d has played pretty good, the o sucks without smith)
Falcons

Steelers
Chargers
Panthers
Bears

Would be my top 5 in no order

My Hawks have given up 16 points in 2 games, albeit against mediocre opponents. The secondary gives up an occasional play but our front line and the backers are the real deal. And they have been bolstered by a now healthy Julian Peterson. I bet they might warrant mention in a topic like this as the season progresses.
