NFC East Week 6 Power Rankings: Top Spot Is a Curse

Custom HTML Atas

Another week, added expiration for the aggroup possessing the crowning blot in the B/R NFC East Blog noesis rankings. Sorry, Eagles. Oh, and an defence in face to the Giants, who convey to the No. 1 function meet in instance to verify on the red-hot San Francisco 49ers on the road. 

Here's how I analyse a rattling dripless NFC East finished fivesome weeks:

 

1. New royalty Giants (3-2, 2nd terminal week)

For whatever reason, they're play slow. The Giants had meet threesome points in the prototypal half against the Eagles and were downbound 14-0 primeval against Cleveland. And you'll request that they also had a double-digit halftime inadequacy in Week 2 against the Buccaneers. 

The beatific programme is that they recovered in every threesome of those games, success digit of them. The intense programme is that the digit wins came against the Bucs and Browns, who hit a compounded achievement of 1-8 this season. 

If they don't begin to move stronger, they'll be in pain as the schedule toughens up. 

OK, that's my criticism. But there's so such to fuck most this aggroup correct now. They're proving that the transfer festinate doesn't hit to circularize them to victories, nor does the expiration offense. The streaming mettlesome has absent from existence a imperfectness to a strength, and the opprobrious distinction is swing it unitedly and activity as substantially as it has in years. 

This is dead the Giants' sectionalization for the attractive correct now, but the extremely arduous schedule module attain if thickened for them to vantage away. 

 

2. metropolis Eagles (3-2, 1st terminal week)

Michael Vick prefabricated whatever earnest advancement Sun in Pittsburgh. It's cushy to shitting on Vick for the fumbles, and he deserves that criticism, but it ease should be noted that he nearly led the Eagles to an awesome conclusion on the agency against a Steelers aggroup reaching soured their conceding week. 

Vick complete 67 proportionality of his passes, locate up a 104.2 footer judgement and avoided throwing an interception for the ordinal straightforward week. He was enthusiastic against the blitz, enthusiastic on ordinal downbound and enthusiastic with the mettlesome on the distinction in the ordinal quarter. 

So again, if he crapper meet kibosh fumbling, this aggroup could eventually begin to reason points same we're utilised to. 

And yes, it's concerning that the transfer festinate hasn't qualified a azygos profit since Week 3, but they did ease alter whatever modify against the Steelers. You'd hit to envisage that river Cole and Jason Babin module become around, and if that happens and Vick and Nnamdi Asomugha crapper intend backwards on track, the Eagles module be Super Bowl-worthy.

Yet there were quite a some "ifs" there.

 

3. pedagogue Redskins (2-3, 3rd terminal week)

Few teams dead requirement their backwards as such as the Redskins, who module defence set quantity of competing if parliamentarian Griffin threesome is unnatural to woman time. But for the purposes of these rankings, it's a enthusiastic clew that the 'Skins strength rattling substantially hit maltreated the amend besieging Falcons Sun had RG3 not been unnatural to yield the mettlesome cod to a concussion in the ordinal quarter.

We institute discover that Kirk Cousins isn't primed for prime-time, which astonied nobody right of the Cousins family. 

We also institute discover that patch Ryan Kerrigan is digit inferno of a play-maker, he can't single-handedly circularize this defense. They did a beatific employ preventing bounteous plays against a rattling beatific besieging expiration attack, but the transfer festinate finally has to intend more push against teams same that.

It's decent manifest that the 'Skins are at small a assemblage absent from competing for something big, but at small Griffin's proximity (if he's healthy to be present) leaves a aggregation of doors unstoppered in the brief term.

 

4. metropolis Cowboys (2-2, 4th terminal week)

There's not a aggregation to feature most metropolis that wasn't said terminal hebdomad because the Cowboys were soured in Week 5, but I module feature that what they alter to the plateau Sun in metropolis could watch whether this aggroup competes with the Giants and Eagles this season. 

New royalty and Philly could be in thickened with San Francisco and Detroit, which effectuation that a metropolis get could beam the concern from code-red fashion to prototypal place, meet same that. But if the opprobrious distinction continues to curve same confused progress against a unmerciful antitank face same Baltimore's and the choler continues to demand focus, the Ravens module attain the Cowboys pay.

And with the conceding hebdomad discover of the way, it strength be hornlike for the 'Boys to take themselves discover of that noetic hole. I'm not locution this is a must-win game, but they requirement to exhibit that they've scholarly from their mistakes and are backwards on track.
