Unless ESPN is still being completely retarded, I suspect we will be 4th on every single one which I'm totally fine with. Patriots and Packers are the clear 1 and 2 at this point, Bengals have been winning with a bit more style than we have and the Broncos are barely squeaking by bad teams.

4. Carolina Panthers (6-0, LW: 5)

Kuechly ended up being credited with 11 tackles on Sunday night. It seemed like he had about 40. What a great player.

 

But the best part of this list ...................

16. Philadelphia Eagles (3-4, LW: 12)

The Eagles would run outside. Luke Kuechly or Thomas Davis would beat everyone to the perimeter and shut it down. The Eagles would run outside. Luke Kuechly or Thomas Davis would beat everyone to the perimeter and shut it down. The Eagles would run outside. Luke Kuechly or Thomas Davis ... you get the point. Chip Kelly did not.

4. Panthers (6-0; No. 4): If they can win when Cam Newton throws three interceptions, they won’t lose many times.

from the eagles site, apparently we still "haven't played anybody".

5) Carolina Panthers (LW: 5) - The Panthers are a perfect 6-0. They haven't had the toughest schedule, but they're still a very good team.

my fave comment of all the lists....

CAROLINA PANTHERS

,

If Sunday night’s primetime victory against the Eagles didn’t do enough to convince you that Carolina is in the 2015 race for the long haul, nothing ever will. There might not be a team constructed as well as Carolina is right now. No, they don’t have an electric passing attack or flashy numbers. But, what they do have is plenty of heart, physicality and consistency. Ron Rivera has something special going on with his Panthers. It might just be the year that the underdog shocks the football world and brings a title back to Charlotte.

#5 Carolina Panthers (6-0) - Previously: #5 - I feel kind of stupid writing this, given that I picked the Eagles to cover - albeit for no units - but it's kind of crazy that the oddsmakers aren't respecting the Panthers at all. Carolina was favored a field goal, which meant that the sportsbooks considered them even with Philadelphia, since three points are customarily given to the host. And it's not like the house was adjusting for the public; most casual gamblers were on the Panthers. Despite being in a terrible spot, Carolina won by 11. This team is pretty damn good, though I guess its record indicates that.

#4  "We bemoan Cam Newton's lack of weapons outside Greg Olsen, but let's give Jonathan Stewart and Ted Ginn due credit."

Panthers 6-0

1 Last Week: 6

Cam Newton is on pace for the lowest completion percentage and Total QBR of his career this season, but the Panthers keep finding ways to win. Their regular-season win streak is now up to 10.

[Ivan The Awesome]

Each week the analysts seem to be less condescending  about the team. Maybe they're finally seeing what this team is...a winner.  

[GhostP.]

ESPN can suck a fat one IMO ... Between their sh1t power rankings and our condescending azz reporter david newton .. I'd rather read what SI has to say when it comes to the panthers.. That's exactly why I enjoyed hearing what Cam said about the media .. Complete jokes
