2011 Playoff NFL Power Rankings:
Week 20 Top Fantasy Performers, Defenses

your an idiot if you think the jags are not ANY better coming out of this draft. Upgraded o line, secondary, two explosive offensive weapons, and they got the qb that you PROJECTED TO THEM as a UDFA. They're definitely a better team now then they were before the draft

Doubting Adrian Peterson isn't a smart thing...I don't know if the Vikings are going to be any better this year or not, they have a very tough schedule and an early bye week, so I won't argue that. All I know is saying Adrian Peterson CAN'T improve off last year is a dumb statement. He was already the opposing teams main focus and he still put together a great finish to his season, so you can't say "Well people will gear up to stop Adrian more now" because that was already the case and it didn't work much. He also claims he should've had at least 200 more yards that he didn't break the tackle like he should've.

@Wyatt Burp: The Lions are in their rightful place, permanently mired in the cellar of the NFC North.

Walt's called it right about Stafford being an IR casualty with that POS OL. The only thing I'm looking forward to is if they finishe the season with Kellen Moore, or do they call me out of retirement?

And with the first pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, the Detroit Lions select...

And whomever it is, it won't fulfill a need!

REALLY????YOU HAVE A NICE SITE AND SEEM TO KNOW A LITTLE ABOUT THE GAME BUT YOUR LOVE AFFAIR WITH THE SEAHAWKS CRUSHES ANY CREDIBILITY YOU MAY HAVE...THE SEABAGS ARE A JOKE...THEY WILL NOT WIN THEIR DIVISION AND ARE NOT EVEN CLOSE TO THE TALENT AND COACHNIG LEVEL OF SF OR ST LOUIS...THEY ARE THE 3RD PLACE TEAM IN THEIR OWN DIVISION....COME ON STOP DRINKING PETE CARROLL'S KOOL AID WALT...

LOLOL at that saints being the sixth best team in the league??? They'll finish behind the falcons and panthers and probably behind the bucs. Payton's a good coach but Rob Ryan switching the d is gonna be an eff up. These rankings are garbage

Heart problem? Hayden has never had a heart problem, he had a freak vascular injury that has virtually no risk of recurrence. You pretending to hold a medical degree now Walt?

horribly disappointing to see the review of the steelers drop in ranking, and then to see in the explaination--tweets from a miami dolphin, with questionable homosexual theory on what it is to be a gay person choice/birth...bad topic, on a player not even on the steelers roster for this year-with zero x and o explaination of the drop in rankings, on a team that lost 8 games, 6 of them by 3 points or less..with draft picks at certain positions..just as a sports page, would have enjoyed seeing more football talk, than the politclly correct tired talk of the gay issue in sports...some of us--don't care for any topic that doesn't directly affect what happens of the field...I mean--this is a sports forum first right?

Or, they look at it as they have given him every option available to be successful and they let him prove he is worthless. Get a 1 or 2 pick again next year and move on with a top pick in a better QB class next year.

@WyattBurp I would be willing to bet that Henne starts for the Jags this season. Not that he is much better, but he does keep his eyes open. And, a reach prediction, the kid from Arizona is the 2nd string by week 1. New regime is determined to remove the mistakes of the old. Blackmon is talented so he will get a pass for this BS, but he is going to lose out on his next contract for it.

any reason why the vikes are 16th? a playoff team who hasn't taken any steps back, and had arguably the best draft... and you seriously have the dolphins and rams ahead of him... u messed these up pretty bad

Did you consider that maybe the Eagles brought in Chip Kelly because he interviewed well and there wasn't a lot of good head coaching candidates available? Another thing to consider, maybe Chip Kelly is smart enough to know how to run more than one offense.

The fact that you think he's arrogant for refusing to explain what offense he'll run says a lot about you and your inflated sense of self worth. Why the hell would he give information that other teams could use against him when they play the Eagles? Because Walter of walterfootball will be salty if he doesn't?

I'm also curious who you think Chip Kelly should have found to be his QB? Carson Palmer? Matt Flynn? Geno Smith? He's playing the hand the previous regime dealt him right now, he can't magic a QB into existence that will solve all the Eagles woes.

Really wish it was CharlieFootball because Walt is an ignorant, arrogant retard.

Walt, you really need to get off Aqib Talib's dick. Ask any bucs fan, he wasn't that good. Did you see what Hicks did to him? I'm glad they disposed of him because when you need him most he's nowhere to be found, oh wait there is only proof of that in the playoffs and just about any game he plays in or is suspended from.

As a ravens fan, if it wasnt for the impact Danelle Ellerbe gave the ravens defense by pressuring the QB with his superb timing and even sealing the ravens victory with that interception in the playoffs then ravens might not have won those games. Saying he's at a low impact position at MLB clearly shows you do not value players like Urlacher, Ray Lewis, Jonathan Vilma, Patrick Willis, etc.

Goodell is going to get #3PETE fired! Seattle will never be anything under Carroll - he will screw it up. Last year was as much luck for the SeaHacks as anything. SeaHacks won't be undefeated at home, and will stink AGAIN on the road.
