The BDML Power Rankings had taken a break for a few weeks, but we are back to bring you the class of the league. Here are the teams who are getting off to a great start to the BDML season:
The Top 10
| The BDML Top 10 | |||
 |
1. Atlanta Falcons (2-0) Last Week: N/A | ||
| The Falcons came out of the gates with a burst, getting 2 divisional wins over the Panthers and Saints. This gives them an early lead in the AFC South. Michael Turner is running hard and rookie Jamarion Bellows is leading the way for the receivers, as he put up 141 yards and 2 TD’s againt the Saints last week. Can the Falcons continue this impressive run? | |||
| Next Game: Panthers (0-2) | |||
 |
2. Arizona Cardinals (2-0) Last Week: N/A | ||
| The Cardinals are starting out their season right. With Matt Leinart now taking the helm, many appeared concerned. But so far, Leinart has 3 TD passes and no picks. On the receiving end of all 3 TD passes has been Larry Fitzgerald, who is always a threat to score. Beanie Wells has also been a strong factor on offense. Will the Cards continue roost on top of the NFC West? | |||
| Next Game: Seahawks (1-1) | |||
 |
3. New York Jets (2-0) Last Week: NA |
||
| The Jets have been the class of the AFC so far. With 76 pts for them, and only 23 scored against them, the Jets are proving defense wins games. Shonn Greene is bulldozing through defenses, and Mark Sanchez is taking care of the ball. After giving the Bills a 49-6 beatdown, it’s hard to see the Jets going anywhere but up. | |||
| Next Game: Week 4 vs. Steelers (1-1) |
|||
 |
4. Baltimore Ravens (2-0) Last Week: NA | ||
| The ravenous Ravens have gotten two wins against the top teams of the last decade (Patriots and Steelers), and are hungry for more. Rookie WR DJ Crosby has emerged as a favorite target of Joe Flacco, giving the Ravens their much needed threat at the position. The only concern going forward is the amount of points the normally tough Raven D has given up. Will they continue to outscore their opponent? | |||
| Next Game: Bengals (2-0) | |||
 |
5. New York Giants (2-0) Last Week: NA |
||
| The G-Men are sitting pretty on top of the normally tenacious NFC East. Eli Manning has been efficient in his passes, and it’s surprisingly been Ahmad Bradshaw leading the rushing attack for the Giants, not Brandon Jacobs. With two division wins under their belt, including a stomping of the Cowboys, the G-men look to continue their winning ways with a trip to Detroit next week. | |||
| Next Game: Lions (1-1) | |||
 |
6. Oakland Raiders (2-0) Last Week: NA |
||
| The city of Oakland appears to be catching “Jack English fever”. The rookie QB is leading the league in passing yards and TD’s currently, and outdueled Peyton Manning last week. The Raiders D is also getting good production out of OLB Trevor Scott, who has sacked the QB 3 times so far. Who knew the Raiders would be leading the AFC West already? | |||
| Next Game: Jaguars (2-0) | |||
 |
7. Cincinnati Bengals (2-0) Last Week: NA |
||
| The Bengals aren’t letting the Ravens just run away with a division lead. They too are sitting at 2-0, and next week will determine who comes away with an early division lead. Keith Rivers is leading the Bengals D, sacking the QB twice already and looking for more. Cedric Benson is also finding the endzone through both ground and air, and appears to be the major contributor on offense. | |||
| Next Game: Ravens (2-0) | |||
 |
8. Chicago Bears (2-0) Last Week: NA |
||
| Up in the north, the Bears are out of hibernation and ready to roll. Matt Forte has been a dual threat in rushing and receiving in both games so far, being the major contributor towards both wins for the Bears. Greg Olsen has also been a sure target for Jay Cutler. Can the Bears continue their success against the Buffalo Bills at home? | |||
| Next Game: Bills (0-2) |
|||
 |
9. Minnesota Vikings (2-0) Last Week: NA |
||
| The Vikings D are making one thing clear so far: Points will be hard to come by against us. With only 27 pts allowed through 2 games, the Vikings are putting themselves in great position to win every week. And that’s without Adrian Peterson running at his best yet. Watch out for the Vikes to climb the rankings at this pace. | |||
| Next Game: Dolphins (0-2) | |||
 |
10. St. Louis Rams (1-1) Last Week: NA | ||
| The Rams lost their Week 1 match to the Bucs by a mere 1 point, so they are as close to 2-0 as they can possibly be. Steven Jackson is off to a great start this season, taking some of the pressure off rookie QB Kelly James. But James is off to a decent start himself, throwing 4 TD’s to only 1 INT. The real question is: Will the defense keep them in enough games? | |||
| Next Game: Broncos (0-2) |
