The NFL Power Rankings are out! The NFL Power Rankings are out!
With that, the Seattle Seahawks are fourth almost across the board: Y!, B/R, CBS, USA Today, NFL.com all placed the Seahawks at four. Pete Carroll’s biggest fan? That would be ESPN, who has Seattle third behind only the New England Patriots and Dallas Cowboys, the clear frontrunners right now. The Oakland Raiders are third almost everywhere else.
However, the Washington Post has the Seahawks at ninth. Why so low? I had to read it three times, I still can’t believe it:
There were some issues Thursday night, from the ill-advised fake punt that put Jon Ryan in harm’s way to the pass play from the 1-yard line that put conscientious objector Richard Sherman at odds with the coaching staff.
