Dirty dozen
The top six and bottom six teams based on current level of play:
1. Indianapolis (3-0): Despite allowing nearly 162 yards rushing per game.
2. Seattle (3-0): Better than last year’s Super Bowl team.
3. Cincinnati (3-0): Good win in Pittsburgh.
4. San Diego (2-0): Move down after trip to Baltimore?
5. Jacksonville (2-1): Could easily have won in Indy.
6. Chicago (3-0): Let’s see how the Bears handle the Seahawks.
6. New Orleans (3-0): Feelgood team.
27. Cleveland (0-3): Decent effort against Ravens. But only an effort.
28. Miami (1-2): No credit for beating Tennessee at home.
29. Tennessee (0-2): Move up off tough effort in Miami.
30. Detroit (0-3): Nothing changed in five years.
31. Houston (0-3): Nothing changed since they were founded.
32. Oakland (0-2): Nothing changed after bye week.
