Doug's Top Ten Teams
Graphic By: Katie Tandler Doug McKinney | Staff Writer

Ok so two of the top 3 teams of my Triple R (Ravens and Raiders) lineup lost this past weekend, but they are still very dangerous teams and I assure you they will be back in most other weeks. Dolphin fans I'm sorry...I didn't give you the credit you deserve. Packers, you guys beat a team that throws 7 interceptions and next you knock off the Skins (Radford U's football team can even play with that schedule). Hey, how about he Titans and the Vikings starting off 0-2? But the real spotlight belongs to the surprising Chargers and Bengals. NFL's best are turning into the NFL's worst. Will the worst be turning into the best? Chargers and Bengals meet each other next week, so we'll find that out and so much more on next week's Fresh Top 10.

  1. Rams (2-0)- Hey, Kurt heard my holla from Week 1. He's playing in spirit with the defense, something the Rams will need if they want to be my number 1. Everyone says how sweet the Rams 99 offense was, but how about partying like it's 2001! I stand tall (actually I'm only 5'9") with the Rams as #1 for week 2, because I gotta give props to "Big Game" the feature man in my Fresh Prince of Sports column this week!
  2. Broncos (2-0)- The Broncos were the reason it was 103 degrees in Arizona on Sunday night. Rod Smith, who dedicates his play to injured McCaffrey, netted 14 catches from rising Elway-like star Brian Griese. Maybe the Broncos aren't hurting in the passing game with the loss of McCaffrey as much as I thought they were.
  3. Colts (2-0)- In Indy, the Colts keep on, as Limp Bizkit would say, "rollin'." The Trio of Manning, James, and Harrison is their key to being in the top of my ten.
  4. Dolphins (2-0)- Accept my apology. First you guys knock off the Titans, than the Raiders--you're hurting my Top 10! But QB Fielder's game winning play has gotten you into my ten, so you won't bring me down anymore. Hey I mean how can ya not like Fielder, as ESPN Page 2 says, the man looks like Ross Perot.
  5. Eagles (1-1)- Once again a former Redskin proves how ridiculous their front office is. James Thrash plays a breakout game, and McNabb leads the team in the passing and running categories.
  6. Packers (2-0)- Week 1 we saw Farve prove that QB's can block (ask the DE Lions Spellman). Week 2 win over the Redskins, big deal--#6 will be as close to #1 as you will get!
  7. Saints (1-0)-- Nice long break is what St. Brooks and St. Williams will need against a Giants team in NY, a team dedicating the game to the tragedy at their home.
  8. Chargers (2-0)- Already doubled last year's victory total. Management went shopping and scored by picking up Doug Flutie, Tim Dwight, and LaDainian Tomlinson. Team took approach this year: I gotta have my Flutie Flakes!
  9. Giants (1-1)- Even though they won in KC, the Giants say the victory was for their home, located 10 minutes away from the World Trade Center. This win has put smiles back on the faces of those in the Big Apple and gives them much needed confidence against their next opponent the Saints.
  10. Bengals (2-0)- Tired of being called the Bungals, the Bengals have started to make a name for themselves with guys like Kitna, Dillon, Warrick, and you got love the name of LB Takeo Spikes!
