Week One NFL Power Rankings

Ok everyone get ready to yell and scream and call me an idiot. It’s all good; this is of course my personal opinion based on what I have seen through pre-season, and what I expect to happen in the regular season. This year we are adding an up, down, or even tread to each week’s rankings. That will be based on injuries, trends in the season, and upcoming opponents.
