Broncos too low, Vikings too high.
I'd probably put the Bengals a little lower to start. They lost key offensive guys (Marvin Jones, Sanu, Andre Smith). Tyler Eifert is out at least 3-4weeks.
Defensive secondary is banged up. Burfict is suspended.
And they have a very rough start to the season.

I actually had them a little lower in my last rankings for the same reasoning, but they didn't appear to miss a beat this preseason. It appears, like a couple others teams, they've managed to weather their injury storm and loss of free agents.

Your opinion here certainly fits the majority, but I disagree due to their respective qb positions. As good as the Broncos D is, I envision their raw, young, totally inexperienced qb will have his own learning curve to face wherein he's bound to have some ugly games. I know he looked good this preseason, but that's the nature of the NFL beast.
On the flip side, the Vikings traded a first round pick for a very good qb representing a substantial upgrade over their former game manager. I feel like they just went from playoff contender to super bowl contender. Teddy's injury may have been the best thing to happen to the Vikings.

Bradford substantially better than Teddy B?
