NEW YORK (AP) — Well that didn’t take long.

The Philadelphia Eagles and New England Patriots Chris Tierney Jersey , who met in the Super Bowl, switched places on Tuesday in the latest AP Pro32 poll .

The defending champion Eagles opened the season on top, with the Patriots a close second.

After the first week of the regular season, it’s the Patriots on top with three of the 12 first-place votes and 367 points in balloting by media members who regularly cover the NFL.

The Patriots opened the season with a 27-20 win over the Houston Texans. Tom Brady threw for 277 yards and three touchdowns.

“Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski put away any offseason speculation about their futures in New England by picking up where they left off,” said Jenny Vrentas of The Monday Morning Quarterback. “Just as notable was the much improved performance by the Patriots’ defense.”

The Eagles received six first-place votes for 366 points despite their sluggish 18-12 win over the Atlanta Falcons.

The Minnesota Vikings remained at No. 3 with 363 points. In his first start with the Vikings Kyle Connor Jersey , Kirk Cousins had 244 yards and two touchdowns in a 24-16 victory over the San Francisco 49ers.

“Solid start for Kirk Cousins at quarterback,” said John Clayton of 710 ESPN in Seattle.

The L.A. Rams are close behind again at No. 4. The Rams earned the other three first-place votes for 360 points.

“After a shaky first half, Rams put on a clinic against the overmatched Raiders and show that (coach) Sean McVay’s team looks ready to live up to the Super Bowl hype,” Newsday’s Bob Glauber said of the Rams’ opening 33-13 rout of the Raiders on Monday night.

The Jacksonville Jaguars moved up two spots to No. 5 and face a big test on Sunday when they host the Patriots in a rematch of last season’s AFC championship game.

“The Jags have waited almost eight months to avenge a bitter loss in Foxborough that cost them a Super Bowl berth,” said Ira Kaufman of Fox 13 in Tampa Authentic Oliver Bjorkstrand Jersey , Florida.

The Green Bay Packers jumped three spots to No. 6 after Aaron Rodgers led a remarkable comeback from a 20-0 deficit to a 24-23 victory on Sunday night after briefly leaving the game with a knee injury.

The Packers will host the Vikings on Sunday in one of the top matchups of Week 2.

“Aaron Rodgers and the Packers were impressive in the second half Sunday, but let’s be honest, the real test comes against the Vikings,” said Charean Williams of Pro Football Talk.

The Kansas City Chiefs moved up six spots to No. 7 after beating the AFC West rival Los Angeles Chargers 38-28. The Chiefs will get another road challenge this week as they head to Heinz Field to face the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The Carolina Panthers rose three spots to No. 8 after topping the Dallas Cowboys 16-8.

The Baltimore Ravens leaped five places to No. 9 after routing the Buffalo Bills 47-3.

The Ravens will open Week 2 when they head to Cincinnati to face the Bengals on Thursday night.

“(The Ravens) look like AFC North favorites,” Fox Sports’ John Czarnecki said.

The Falcons fell two spots to No. 10. They are scheduled to host the Panthers on Sunday in their home opener at Mercedes-Benz Stadium Marshal Yanda Jersey , site of the next Super Bowl.

The New York Jets, who opened the season in last place, soared to No. 17 after their 48-17 rout of the Detroit Lions, who fell from No. 19 to No. 30.

“Either the Detroit Lions are that bad or the Jets are going to be a lot better than I thought,” said Alex Marvez of The Sporting News.
Now that Von Miller has his new pass rushing partner Kentrell Brice Jersey , John Elway knows he needs to give Case Keenum and Demaryius Thomas some help on offense.

The Denver Broncos' general manager grabbed the top-ranked defensive player in the NFL draft Thursday night when North Carolina State defensive end Bradley Chubb fell to Denver at No. 5.

A stunned Elway said "zero" of his mock draft scenarios had Chubb falling into his lap to the thrill of superstar Von Miller and giving coach Vance Joseph the ultimate problem for a coach: an abundance of pass rushers.

Chubb will play outside linebacker in Denver where he's expected to immediately upgrade a defense that ranked third last season but surrendered a whopping 29 TD passes.

The Broncos own three more picks in the top 100, including the 40th overall selection in the second round and a pair of third-rounders Friday.

Elway, who signed Keenum in free agency last month, needs more playmakers for an anemic offense. He has said he'll target a running back after releasing C.J. Anderson.
