NFL Week 4 Power Rankings:

1. Bengals (1) - I had the Steelers #1 at the start of the season in deference to their status as Super Bowl Champions, but the fact of the matter is I've always thought the Bengals were the team to beat, and I've seen nothing to make me change that opinion.
2. Colts (2) - Showed that they are still the team to beat in the AFC South.
3. Bears (3) - Didn't show the kind of offense they flashed against Detroit and Green Bay, but it;s tough to start a season better than 3-0 in your own division.
4. Seahawks (4) - The Madden Curse strikes again; now, can the Seahawks cope?
5. Chargers (6) - Will the early bye hurt them down the stretch?
6. Jaguars (7) - Played the Colts tough again - but ultimately, not tough enough.
7. Broncos (8) - I'm not ready to completely forgive that week 1 loss to the Rams just yet.
8. Steelers (5) - They don't look like world beaters so far, but it's way too early to panic.
9. Cowboys (11) - The Cowboys are the top NFC East team almost by default.
10. Eagles (12) - They can beat up on garbage opposition, but that loss to the Giants still smarts.
11. Patriots (9) - Methinks Bill Bellachick finally bit off more than he can chew by ditching all of his wideouts.
12. Giants (10) - Ummm, what the hell was that?
13. Vikings (14) - Had the opportunity to make a statement, and let it slip through their fingers.
14. Ravens (15) - Baltimore was one interception in the end zone away from being the People's Exhibit A in the case of Why You Don't Overreact To 2 Games. As it is, they are somewhere around Exhibit H.
15. Panthers (17) - Nice to have a kicker you can depend on to make the big figgies.
16. Falcons (13) - Part of me wants to give the Falcons a mulligan for that loss - no team could have played with the Saints in the first half of that game; the other part of me wants to know why the Falcons offense couldn't turn anything around in the second half, after the initial rush wore off.
17. Dolphins (16) - Well, a win is a win, I guess.
18. Chiefs (18) - Can Larry Johnson keep the Damon Huard Era from being a complete disaster?
19. Redskins (19) - Nothing cures an offense's woes quite like the return of a 1,500 yard back - although a date with the Texans doesn't hurt, either.
20. Saints (22) - If nothing else, the Saints sure learned what they can be Monday Night.
21. Buccaneers (20) - Losing on a last second field goal to a team many have chalked as a Super Bowl contender isn't a bad loss, but it is still a loss.
22. Rams (21) - Tried to give the game away against the Cardinals, but the Cardinals tried harder.
23. Jets (24) - The Jets made a statement Sunday; "we're better than the Bills".
24. Cardinals (23) - ESPN's Chris Mortensen reports than Dennis Green wants Josh McCown back.
25. Bills (25) - The fact that the Bills looked so good the first two weeks might say more about the Patriots and Dolphins than it does about the Bills.
26. 49ers (26) - If #98 is able to run 98 yards with the ball against you, then your team wasn't trying, which is inexcusable, especially at home.
27. Browns (27) - Good teams find a way to win winnable games.
28. Packers (31) - Well, at least they might not finish last.
29. Lions (28) - That question about whether the Bears offense was good or if the Packers and Lions defenses were that bad - well, it got answered, and the answer is bad news for the Bears.
30. Raiders (29) - The bye week might be the best they look all season.
31. Titans (30) - Coach Fisher needs to do the fans a favor and put Vince Young out there.
32. Texans (32) - Think Reggie Bush is still dissapointed he wasn't taken #1 overall? Me neither.
