2007 NFL Week 8 Barometer

Top 10 looks right on. After that, it gets wonky. Detroit is the biggest pretender to the crown, ever.

They find ways to win though, they just beat a very solid Tampa Bay team this weekend, and that to me was pretty telling. If they can get a W on the weeks where they aren't supposed to (i.e. Tampa Bay, Chicago) they are going to make some noise. They're also playing great at home so far this year, and that never hurts.

I'm just being cantankerous... not debating anything with your reasoning there Money... though 7th is a little high. Are you a little high?

Seriously, though... they could be like the 2001 Bears... the team that goes a lot further than they should. They could exist SOLELY to get Detroit fans' hopes up, and to ruin good NFL playoff matchup ratings.

As a kite...

Speaking of high though, Baltimore has had a CAKE schedule and they are only 4-3, they are way too high IMO.

Well, they have to win on the road...
