Positive article about most teams. More up-to-date information included in analysis. No definitive opinions but very positive analysis, fair to teams and not such a homer on same ol' media picks.

Ya, ranked a little higher but barring injuries no way we are 6-10 team. It just simply won't happen. I am growing a little tired of hearing people say we're screwed because we are in the AFC South. Granted it is the toughest division in the NFL, but as we grow as a team others are begininng to falter, and even if they stay the same who the hell says we don't have a shot at overcoming them? It is just really begininng to irritate me, I hope this team shoves 11 wins down every sportswriters throat this season, including 2 over Tenn. and 1 a piece over Jax and Indy. This is our breakout year.

Sorry for the homeristic rant, but it's getting old listening to people write us off, and ya I know we haven't given them any reason to think otherwise yada yada yada... screw that....

BELIEVE IN NOW!!

I'm ok with the disrespect until the season starts. I think making fair comments about the potential of new personnel is fine for now. When we're 5-0 I expect the respect to follow.

I don't know about anyone else, but I like it that we are in the toughest division in football. I think if we were in the NFC or any other division we would probably have already been in the playoffs by now.

This way when we make the playoffs they can't use the weak division argument.

Patriots are in a weak division. However, the media never said they are in a weak division. But if it were the Texans they would of probably said that.

These rankings are more accurate IMO than the BSPN power rankings. I think Jacksonville is a little high, but everyone is hot on them right now, so I'm probably wrong.

Yeah I say the ranking is in the right range maybe 15-17. That is for those who are just speculating and basing us on our past and thinking that we have not grown physically and mentally as a team. Once the regular season begins after a few games all that ranking will change. Only time will tell... until then we cant be mad at any speculative rankings... ofcourse it sucks they have no faith in the Texans.. but we gotta earn it... and we will.
