West 6,713 Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 The ESPN power panel -- a group of more than 80 writers, editors and TV personalities -- evaluated how all 32 teams stack up. Enjoy. 1. Los Angeles Rams Record: 2-0Week 2 ranking: 4 The Rams are 2-0 for the first time since 2001, when they played in the Super Bowl. Los Angeles is now the favorite to win it all, by most measures. The Rams have the best odds to win the Super Bowl (5-1), according to the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook, and also are 30 percent FPI favorites to win it all (best in league). -- Doug Clawson 2. Jacksonville Jaguars Record: 2-0Week 2 ranking: 5 The Jaguars knocked off the defending AFC champion Patriots at home, and they now have won six straight games in Jacksonville by an average of 15.7 points per game. That is their longest home win streak since winning six straight in 2005-06, and they get to host the Titans in Week 3. -- Joey Koontz 3. Kansas City Chiefs Record: 2-0Week 2 ranking: 6 Patrick Mahomes became the youngest quarterback in NFL history to throw six touchdown passes in a game (he turned 23 on Monday), and his 10 touchdowns are the most through a team's first two games of a season in league history. Up next are the 49ers, who have yet to pick off a pass this season and just allowed Matthew Stafford to throw three touchdowns. -- Koontz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetlord 10,209 Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 The Chiefs' offense has won two on the road they were expected to lose. Great, but the cynic in me remembers the 5-0 start last year and the results of the next five games. I'm optimistic, but it too early to start celebrating another division championship. Either the offense will come down to earth for a game or two or the defense will finally cost the team more than the offense can cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xen 1,010,220 Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Well if it makes ya feel any better, Reid went and got Mahomes precisely to avoid those big lulls we had with Alex. Doesn't mean we will but we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
