Only issue is, every Power Ranking has the Broncos out of the Top 5 it seems.

They'll be highly motivated for that first game again.  God, and Mike Remmers will still be our RT.  Sigh.  Welp, at least there's alcohol.  

It will not numb the pain but I we beat those bums in Denver.  Not a doubt in my mind we are not the better team.

Oh, how I wish there was another sports network to compete with ESPN and all the crap they put out on their website as well as on the Mothership. If they are not kissing up to the Patriots they are loving all over the Cowboys and the sideshow they are. Like Rodney Dangerfield would say, "get no respect."

Well, Panthers fans, we're going to see another push this year. Whether ESPN sees Carolina as number 1, 2 or at the bottom. I say we show them another run at the Super Bowl....

I saw those ESPN rankings while running on treadmill and have no problem with them.  Going into the regular season I think we and New England could either be at number 1/2 and I agree that GB with Nelson back is slightly ahead of Seattle.  

I know its early but plan for us to host GB in the NFC championship game on championship sunday in Jan.

We were the better team in the Super Bowl.  Where did that get us?

If your meaning is that we're better than Denver, then you've got one too many 'nots' in your sentence.

Apologies for a slightly off-topic comment, but I don't want to make a new thread just to rant...

I guess I didn't pay much attention in previous off seasons, but I was just astonished today browsing at NFL.com.  Not only do we have power rankings before training camp, we also have lists of leading contenders for DROY and OROY before some teams have even held their rookie minicamps for goodness sakes.  WOW.  Talk about the most stupid articles EVER....!   Before you see these rookies play even 1 snap of NFL football you're going to start talking about rookies of the year?!?!?!?!?

And no, I'm not going to link the articles because it would be stupid to give NFL.com any clicks for such idiocy!

You can already find 2018 mock drafts too. This kind of stuff no longer surprises me.

May Power Rankings are about as useful as taking notes on toilet paper.

Honestly, so are January power rankings.

Fox is making a solid push as of late but their issue is that Fox Sports 1 is catching on quite as quickly as they thought.

Yep.  The only power ranking that really matters is who gets the Lombardi.

We need an outrage of the day thread

I'm pretty sure it was slated to happen last year before his injury. Williams was continually seeing more and more snaps, while playing much better than Remmers overall, before he went down.

Was this during TC and I somehow missed it?

I agree that Williams is slated to be the RT long term, but somehow I missed him getting more snaps.
