NFL Week 3 Recap; Real Scores Vs Proposed Scores

Well week 3 is over and let's look at how the game's went and what kind of moving and shaking teams are doing with a 3rd game under their belt.

Teams Keeping Their Dominance

New Orleans - Even in a game where the passing attack was not statistically ridiculous the Saints trounced Buffalo with a potent rushing attack and efficient football.

Both New York Teams (Giants and Jets) - With the Giants shutout of Tampa and the Jets victory over Tennessee they are looking better then ever.

Baltimore - With another big win, they are playing good hard football.

Teams That Are Moving Up

Indianapolis - With their destruction of Arizona on Sunday night, the Colts have looked the most promising all year, applying significant pressure to Kurt Warner, running the ball better, and playing football better on all sides of the ball.

Jacksonville - They got a much needed win over a division rival as they ran up and down on Houston. We'll see if they can continue versus the hapless Titans next week.

Cincinnati - With their upset win over the super bowl champs, they are looking less and less like a fluke and more and more like a real threat.

Teams That Are Moving Down

Seattle - They opened the season with a shutout victory over the Rams and have thus fallen to 1-2. Matt Hasselbeck did not play because of a broken rib. Next week's game with Indy is going to pose real problems.

Miami - The Dolphins fall to 0-3 as they get beaten by the Chargers. There running attack is potent, but lack of passing success, big play ability, and conversion play has limited them.

Tennessee - The team with the best record last year is currently 0-3. Their misusing their talent and they need to figure a way to fix that fast.
