Butters' Coca Cola League Poll (where 1 is the worst of the worst and 10 is the best of the worst) (as of 10.17.2006)
Many teams get their first win, while others decline furthur than the depths of the New Orleans ground level. Congrats to those teams. We have a couple of newcomers, and a couple of exitwarmers, as they proved not to be not in this elite 10. The Pittsburgh Steelers got their wake up call, after seeing their team on my list, destroying the chiefs 45-7. So here's the list :
1. Oakland Raiders( LW : 1 ) - Oakland looked horrible against the Broncos on NBC. Even John Madden couldn't find anything positive to say about this team, and that's very hard to do. They need to dump this team, and start from scratch. It is the best for them. I heard Bo Jackson doesn't know what happened to his former team, and we all know Bo knows everything, right ?
2. Miami Dolphins( LW : 5 ) - Tough game for the Phins. Wow do they look bad right now. Now the media is starting to compare them with the Hurricanes, and ask who is worse at the moment ? Randy McMichael and Ronnie Brown had productives stats against the Jets, but once again, the QB position remains questionable, and the offensive line looks shaky. They may need to call Richmond Webb and Harry Galbreath to help this offensive line, because right now, both of them could actually start for this team.
3. Houston Texans( LW : 6 ) - That was one boring game against the Cowboys. They had the lead at halftime, then that was it. T.O. burnt them, and they couldn't do much against a moderate Cowboys defense. The texans really need a running back to scare the defense away from david carr. he looks like a broken pinata hanging ever so slightly on the tree branches. on top of that, the hit by roy williams when carr decided to run out the pocket didn't make things any easier. haha . tough break for this team and gary kubiak.
4. Detroit Lions( LW : 2 ) - yea! they got their first win against former coach dick jauron and the bills. hey they actually look good by trying to balance the load (36 passes, 27 runs). they keep this up, they might have a solid second half of the season, because their defense is doing pretty solid. they just need their offense to click. and roy williams is the shit. i had to say that.
5. Tampa Bay Buccaneers( LW : 3 ) - congrats on their first win. gradkowski sticking it there, and handing the bengals a gut wrenching loss. defense starting to show their age, so tampa needs to start working on a youth movement on the defensive side, or it's not going to be a bright future for them. their offense seems to be set with gradkowski/simms, caddy, and michael clayton.
6. Tennessee Titans( LW : 4 ) - congrats to the titans on their win against the skins. they gave it their all against the skins. can't expect anything less from a jeff fisher coached team. they give 100% all the time. travis henry keeping lendale white on the bench with his big carries. hopefully they can squeeze a couple of more wins.
7. Arizona Cardinals( LW : 8 ) - Matt Leinert turned the smoking hot desert into sunnyside shores with his excellent play against a tough bears team. don't blame the loss on leinert, the coaches, or any of the defensive side. everyone gave it their all. blood, sweat and tears. however, at the end, the good teams score the points, but the best teams know how to close out the games.
8. Green Bay Packers( LW : 7 ) - they were on bye. how did they move up from 7 to 8 ? well the cardinals blew the big turkey, and the pack was smart enough to let koren robinson serve his suspension, not trying to delay the issue any furthur. now with the issue about brett favre, and when aaron rodgers will start .....
9. Cleveland Browns( LW : 10 ) - they were on bye. how did they move down from 10 to 9 ? well pittsburgh showed their winning swagger, cincy and baltimore are still good teams, so they are still the bottom dwellers of the afc north.
10. Washington Redskins( LW : NR ) - Why did they enter into my top 10 ? They just look awful right now. they're 2-4, sorry kap. they suck right now. reports are swirling around that jason campbell might get the start soon. we will see. i can't explain about this team, because this team looks very good on paper, especially the defense, and the offense looks decent, with portis and moss leading the way, but they manage to lose games. what makes things worse is that they are in a tough division with the boys, eagles, and g-men.
Honorable Mention : San Francisco 49ers, Buffalo Bills, Atlanta Falcons, Kansas City Chiefs

That's just ridiculous. It was horrible, but you have to admit that the Cardinals had amazing coverage, and the Bears defence let a few guys slip through to sack Grossman. I think the Bears offence as a whole, was atrocious last night. But you can't squarely blame it on Rex.
the skins made the coca cola rankings
