NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE TOP TO BOTTOM
No. Team (Record) Comment
1. St. Louis (6-0) Injured kicker only gave Rams reason to score more.
2. Minnesota (6-0) Good team, but not a dominating one.
3. Tennessee (5-1) Eddie George controls ball, defense controls game.
4. Washington (5-2) Defense and Stephen Davis a solid combination.
5. New York Jets (5-1) Monday night showdown interrupts Subway Series.
6. Miami (5-1) Playing Jets on the road for first place a big test.
7 Oakland (5-1) Playoff-bound: Get used to the idea.
8. Indianapolis (4-2) Edgerrin James rejuvenated.
9. Baltimore (5-2) We want a touchdown, gotta have a touchdown.
10. Detroit (5-2) Catch that hit on Keyshawn Johnson?
11. Kansas City (3-3) Brace for Stoyanovich’s revenge.
12. Denver (4-3) Imagine if Terrell Davis were playing.
13. New York Giants (5-2) Only partly responsible for Aikman’s awful day.
14. Buffalo (3-3) Flutie gets chance to stir quarterback debate.
15. Tampa Bay (3-4) This ship has taken on water.
16. Philadelphia (4-3) A bit wary of the 1-6 Bears.
17. Pittsburgh (3-3) The Bus should roll against Cleveland.
18. New England (2-5) That resurgence is on hold.
19. Jacksonville (2-5) From 14-2 to under .500?
20. Green Bay (3-4) In danger of missing playoffs for second season in a row.
21. New Orleans (3-3) Could make a little noise in weak NFC West.
22. San Francisco (2-5) Jeff could become most popular Garcia in Bay Area since Jerry.
23. Dallas (2-4) It’s Aikman’s ship. Jerry Jones wants to let him go down with it.
24. Atlanta (2-5) Things would get ugly with a loss to Saints.
25. Carolina (2-4) Things already got ugly.
26. Chicago (1-6) Best--and only--1-6 team in NFL.
27. Seattle (2-5) Huard likely to play. Is that good or bad?
28. Arizona (2-4) This team not winning any stadium votes.
29. Cleveland (2-5) No Tim Couch? Ouch.
30. San Diego (0-7) Good news: No game, no quarterback decision.
31. Cincinnati (0-6) Season scoring total: Still 37 points.
