Its hard for me to just put AD instead of MI there for Saints but in any case, i'd say Saints should be #4-#5 ranking.

I think Saints with their proven 3 should outrank Raiders, Packers and especially Carolina who is really overranked. No. 4 seems pretty high to me.

I agree with including Ingram over Peterson it's the proven trio for this offense currently...I think the raking is in the right range, but I would have them ranked over Carolina without question.

Cowboys #2? Omfg this is why I quit giving a shite about media opinions and just watch the games.

If Ingram is swapped out and he was a 1000 yard rusher last year, Peterson has to be better.
Dallas should be lower.
Carolina should be lower.
Oakland should be lower.
Green Bay should be higher.
New England should be higher.
New Orleans should be higher.
Dallas:
Dak: Rodgers, Brady, Brees are better
Elliott: Better than Montgomery, White, or Ingram/Peterson
Dez: Nelson, Gronk, and MT are better, even taking to account injury times
Carolina:
Cam: Rodgers, Brady, Brees are better
McCaffrey: Not better than Ingram. Might be better than Montgomery and White
Olsen: Is not better than Nelson/Thomas, better than injured-Gronk
Oakland:
Carr: He's right up there with Brees, but not better than Brady/Rodgers
Lynch: Out of football a year, not better than Ingram. Probably still better than Montgomery and White
Cooper"
Cooper: About the same as Thomas, not better than Nelson, better than injured Gronk. Not better than healthy Gronk
It should be:
1. Pittsburgh (tier 2 QB with #1a WR and #1a RB)
2. Atlanta (tier 1 QB with #1b WR and tier 1 RB)
3. New Orleans (tier 1 QB with tier 2 RB and tier 1 WR)
4. Green Bay (#1a QB with tier 3 RB and tier 1 WR)
5. New England (#1b QB with tier 3 RB and tier 1 TE)
6. Oakland (tier 1 QB with tier 2 RB and tier 1 WR)
7. Dallas (tier 2 QB with #1b RB and tier 2 WR)
8. Carolina (tier 2 QB with tier 2 RB and #1 TE)
If I were to keep them all top 8 still.
Dallas should be lower.
Carolina should be lower.
Oakland should be lower.
Green Bay should be higher.
New England should be higher.
New Orleans should be higher.
Dallas:
Dak: Rodgers, Brady, Brees are better

It makes me smile inside that Ingram isn't in the trio. I hope it gives him motivation and he just doesn't go cry on the sideline.

I agree, but its not unfathomable to pencil him as better than James White and Ty Montgomery. I think both of those guys #s combined barely reach 1k yards (rushing and receiving)

Think its a national writer thing. Most around this area think it will be Ingram as the starter. Save a few hold out Ingram never going to like him haters.

I see Ingram and Peterson as 1A and 1B. I wouldn't be surprised if they are both listed in the starting lineup against Minnesota.
Brees
Ingram/Peterson
Thomas/Snead
Ramczyk/Peat/Unger/Warford/Strief
Fleener
It's just a technicality for TV anyway.

The frick?
This has to be satire right?

It's pretty much a fact at this point that these writers purposely disrespect Brees.
