Miami ranked 24 on ESPN power rankings...BS

[NYPhin24]

ESPN has miami ranked behind the chargers who miami beat and san diego last sunday also, behind the jets..even tho they lost to them brett favre has looked awful leading the league in INT with 3 on sunday and barely pulled off a last minute win against the 1-6 chiefs without larry johnson the only talented player on that team, oh and they were playing with their 3rd string QB...

"They've beaten the best teams on their schedule. Had they been able to close out a couple of games early against beatable teams, they would be 5-2. (TG)"

The Texans are one rank behind us....I'm sure they're fans are wondering the same thing.

Who cares what ESPN says about us, theyre the laughing stock of sports.. The only thing that gives them credence are people who actually take solice in what they spew... Whether they talk good or bad about us, I for one do not pay any attention to their ramblings. You guys shouldnt get so worked up, especially with companies who hire people named Trey WAH WAH WAH Wingo

If the NFL were college football and the bcs was involved, I would be upset but since its not, I don't care what anyone says. Our destiny will be determined on the field and not by some journalist.

Who really cares about what ESPN ranks us, I think most of the more intelligent power rankings have us a lot higher, where we should be.


This team could very easily be 4-3 right now... Either the Jets or the Texans game should have been a win, and I honestly blame the Texans game on coaching.... Manage the freaking clock better, run it down to 20 seconds and kick a field goal and we win, instead of just scoring with 2 minutes left and giving them the ball back.

 

[CitizenSnips]

seems fair to me.

Look what they said about the Jets. i think that is FAR more telling than anything:

The Jets are treading just above mediocrity, while the Patriots refuse to lose and the Dolphins are figuring out how to win. (TG)

If ESPN stinks, where do you guys go for your sports news and highlights?

The best is BY FAR NFL Network... ESPN doesnt even come close to them... The only time I ever watch ESPN is on MNF, and with Korkhoser talking, it makes it even harder to watch.

There really is no such thing as an "intelligent" power ranking.. Power rankings are no different than asking someone, what do you want for dinner tonight? Its all a guessing game. Unfortunately for ESPN, they are the worst at guessing

yah so I guess by "guessing" you mean picking the teams that have won the most and performed the best so far in their games???


I mean are you serious here man???

Its all a guessing game with these power rankings. Just because a team is high in the power rankings, obviously does not make them a shoe in for anything. It makes me laugh how some people put SO MUCH credence into these power rankings, like our season is deterimed by them

 

[Clipse]

Whats the problem? Seems about right to me. Perhaps if we start beating the teams we're supposed to, we'll get more respect.

"They've beaten the best teams on their schedule. Had they been able to close out a couple of games early against beatable teams, they would be 5-2 and still ranked 24. (TG)"

Fixed.

ESPN hates us, who cares where they rank us? (It will always be low)

 

[SQuinn17]

ESPN is bias. I could care less what they think about us. If we keep winning, the haters will jock us!
