The Rating Classes, Week 8

It wasn't a great week for my rating classes, with higher class teams only going 6-3.  Granted the Titans' and Ravens' wins weren't all that shocking, though perhaps their margins of victory were.

I'm pulling 2 teams up out of the mire to Class 3: Carolina confidently and Tennessee somewhat skeptically.

Elite (6): Colts, Patriots, Steelers, Broncos, Saints, Vikings

Contenders (9): Giants, Packers, Cowboys, Bengals, Ravens, Falcons, Eagles, Cardinals, Chargers

The Fringe (10): Jets, Bears, Texans, Jaguars, Bills, Dolphins, Seahawks, 49ers, Panthers, Titans

The Awful (7):  Redskins, Browns, Rams, Raiders, Buccaneers, Chiefs, Lions

awesome post.

Maybe move the Cardinals down a level?

I really do like this

I think regular power rankings are fun, but it is hard to know who is better (Colts / Saints) if they have not played each other. While we all know our Colts would win that matchup, this setup gives room for unknowns.

Good job!
