Yup, NFL season kicks off tonight. For many of us, this is like Christmas in September. After several long months of waiting, dealing with offseason moves/arrests etc., we’ve finally arrived at day one.
To celebrate this momentous occasion, several of my W2O Group colleagues — led by Michael Westgate — have put together a social ranking of all 32 NFL teams. You can get more details about the project and the methodology here. Of course I am immensely proud of the fact that my New England Patriots sit in the number three spot on the chart. Yes, I would prefer the number one slot but I’ll chalk this up to the fact that there is a lot of pent up enthusiasm around the Forty Niners given the fact that it’s been a while since they’ve had a relevant team.
21. Chicago Bears – 44.69
22. Oakland Raiders – 44.36
23. Denver Broncos – 43.86
24. Minnesota Vikings – 43.66
25. St. Louis Rams – 42.94
26. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – 41.51
27. Kansas City Chiefs – 39.90
28. Arizona Cardinals – 38.34
29. Carolina Panthers – 35.83
30. Miami Dolphins– 33.22
31. Detroit Lions – 29.40
32. Cincinnati Bengals – 26.91
How about your team? A little surprised by the Bengals cellar-dweller status. Not nearly as surprised by Detroit owning the 32nd slot given their poor season last year. But given their revamped defense and the addition of a running game in Reggie Bush, don’t be surprised if you see their stock climb over the next couple of months.
