The Bottom Ten/NFL Week 10

The Bottom Ten is free this season. 

The Bottom Ten/NFL Week 10
By Gaylon Kent

Even with 30% of last week’s survey – Washington, Jacksonville, Houston – resting up for the Bottom Ten stretch run, there was still no shortage of lousiness in the quest for The Dan Henning Trophy – symbolic of NFL Bottom Ten supremacy. 

And even though the Bengals – a Bottom Ten Legacy Team – won, you count them out of the Bottom Ten medal stand hunt at your peril, as veteran Bottom Ten fan(s) know you do NOT count the Bengals out until all the fumbles have been recovered. 

This week’s fiasco as the nags continue their plodding up the backstretch: 

1. New York Jets (0-8; lost to Kansas City 35-9) – Jets prove old NFL adage about any team being able to beat any other team on any given Sunday utter nonsense with classic blowout loss to defending Super Bowl champions…Jets 47th NFL team to start season 0-8…Next Loss: New England

2. New York Giants (1-7; lost to Tampa Bay 25-23) – Giants (again) show ability to lose close ones  – key in any quest for B-10 glory – not securing latest loss until blowing two (2)-point conversion late in game…Showdowns with Whatevers, Eagles next two (2) weeks will be key to B-10 chances..Next Loss: at Washington

3. Dallas Cowboys (2-6; lost to Philadelphia 23-9) – Owner Jerry Jones all smiles as it only took eight (8) games for new head coach to deliver on mandate to deliver Cowboys to B-10 medal stand …Rumors flying CBS trying to flex-schedule Sunday’s slaughter against 7-0 Steelers to Horror Channel…Next Loss: Pittsburgh

4. New England Patriots (2-5; lost to Buffalo 24-21) – Patriots coaching staff still pouring over B-10 Welcome Aboard packet as team prepares for team’s biggest B-10 game ever this week…Next Loss: at New York Jets

5. Carolina Panthers (3-5; lost to Atlanta 25-17) – Though early three (3)-game win skid might keep Panthers off B-10 medal stand, avenging earlier win over Falcons puts Panthers squarely on patented B-10 TitleTrak Radar (TTR)…With losable games next three (3) weeks, Panther fan(s) hoping for strong start to season’s second half…Next Loss: at Kansas City

6. NFC East (8-22) – Division now threatening to make mockery of race for annual Pete Rozelle Award, issued to NFL’s worst division – never particularly easy to do – with yet another weekly Rozelle Award win…Division actually strutting stuff now as three (3) of its four (4) teams have won at least 25% of their games.

7. Cincinnati Bengals (2-5-1; defeated Tennessee 31-20) – Bengals quest to shed worst team never to win B-10 title mantle takes big hit with upset win…Bengals offense morale at rock bottom after producing leads not even their defense could blow…Next Loss: Pittsburgh (11/15)

8. Atlanta Falcons (2-6; defeated Carolina 25-17) – Another team blowing chance for B-10 glory as Falcons win second game in three (3) weeks…Falcons have relatively easy schedule rest of the way, with zero (0) games teams in this week’s survey…Next Loss: Denver

9. NFLStill foisting lousy football off on fan(s), as eleven (11) teams with two (2) or fewer wins most since there were twelve (12) in 2006 (2006).

10. Detroit Lions (3-4; lost to Indianapolis 41-21) – With 76 penalty yards and 29 rushing years, Lions show mastery of fundamentals with Week 10-best 2.6206-to-1.0000 penalty yards to rushing yards ratio…Lions with brutal stretch next four (4) weeks, as opponents combined 8-21…Next Loss: at Minnesota
