NFL Preseason Power Rankings

      The NFL Preseason Power Rankings are out as the Season is just 5 days away.  Key Players are already going down and some are out for the season. Lots of question surround teams as the Owners once again demand 4 useless Exhibition Games that cause more injuries then how much money they are stuffing in their pockets.  The Owners demand the fans pay stupid prices to watch meaningless games and cough up monies for seats, concession and parking.
      Rookie Quarterbacks headline this Preseason as many teams are looking to play these untested rookies right away.  It was also the off season of QB's changing teams as numerous NFL teams now have proven QB's hoping to lead their new teams into the Playoffs and ultimately to win the Super Bowl. Big names players are coming off of major injuries they sustained last season and the season before and hope to regain their statuses of being Elite players in the league. Staying on top in the league is very challenging and staying healthy is even a bigger obstacle.
      Here are some questions that will need to be answered this season:

• Will the Cowboys rebound after missing the Playoffs last season and Dak Prescott improve in his 3rd year?
• Can Tom Brady continue to be the GOAT and lead the Patriots to another Super Bowl win? 
• Does Aaron Rodgers get the Packers back to prominence?
• Which rookie QB's will standout and make their teams better?
• Is Andrew Luck's shoulder healed and will the Colts get out of the cellar in the AFC South?
• Will Drew Bress lead the Saints back to the Promised land?
• Is Kirk Cousins the answer in Minnesota?
• Can Pittsburgh finally get over the top or has their window closed?
• Which teams will be the surprise teams this season?
• Is this finally Phillip Rivers year to shine and how good will the Chargers be?
• Does KC get into the playoffs and past the 1st round?
• Does Detroit finally take it to the next level and win a Playoff game?
• Who will be the best RB and WR in football this year?
• Will the new rule changes cost teams games and have playoff ramifications? 

     These are just a few of many questions heading into the Season.
