NFL Power Rankings: Seahawks Soar to Top Spot, Vikings Plummet

Welcome to the most important thing you’ll read all week (just kidding). In Mitch’s power rankings intro for Week 2, he mentioned that the introduction to a power rankings post is perhaps the most poorly read block of text in sports media. You scroll to where your team is located, fire up Twitter and search for the author’s name so you can call him or her an a-hole. But hey, at least we’re communicating, right?

If you do happen to make it this far, I’d urge only one thing as we barrel into Week 3 and, societally, into some fairly choppy waters: I’ve gotten emails from plenty of readers about their thoughts on what happened before games in Week One and why they reacted the way they reacted.
