NFL Rankings - 29 Sep

There are 7 remaining undefeated teams after week 3 of the NFL season, but not all are created equal. Three of them (Green Bay, Arizona, and Carolina) have played schedules among the 4 easiest in the league so far, which means anything short of 3-0 would have been a problem. Here are this week's full rankings:

Atlanta moved up to #2 after upsetting the Cowboys on the road, although the Cowboys were missing their two best players. Dallas' running game was operating perfectly, but the passing game was definitely lacking. The Falcons have the advantage of playing the easiest remaining schedule in the league, which means that they could possibly make it through the season unblemished, having already passed the rough part of the schedule.

Philadelphia moved up quickly this week after notching their first win, but a lot of that has to do with the strength of the teams they have played so far. All 3 of their opponents are in the top 7 this week, and their point differential is only -5 despite having played two of those games on the road. They get to travel again this week, to face the improving Redskins in Washington.
