How about the Falcons? They are 4-0. They beat Dallas, Philly, NY Giants, & Houston. Those team have a combined record of 6-10. Hey look at that, Oakland, Baltimore, SD, & KC also have a combined record of 6-10. So why aren't they above us and the Cardinals? Hint: it really doesn't matter.
People get way too upset about power rankings. "Hey, my team is too low and Team X is too high!" "If my team beat Team X, and Team X beat Team Y, then I should be ranked higher!"
At the end of the day, none of it really matters. That said, rankings have long been a part of the conversation. And given the performance of both teams and the competition level of who they played against, it's a valid gripe to argue the Bengals should be ahead of them.
