Power Rankings: Bengals Top 5

[Johnny Cupcakes]

People dismiss power rankings, but they secretly check up on it and love reading them.

It's cool to see them regarded as one of the best teams in the league at the moment. I think that national opinion usually jives with how good a team actually is...more often than not, they're right. So, being ranked in the top 5 really shows that this team is as skilled as we all think they are. The real test will be remaining this highly ranked at the end of the season. Being #3 after week 3 doesn't matter much if they're not ranked #1 in February.
