Week 13 NFL Power Rankings, Who's #1?
Team by team football ranks
Week 13 is a chance for the Titans to get an easy win and for the Cowboys to get back in the mix for a good playoff spot with Thanksgiving games against easy opponents.
Here are the rankings:
Week 13 NFL Power Rankings: Historically Bad Teams
32. Detroit Lions-
Beating Tennessee would literally be a miracle. Daunte Culpepper is predictably not in sync with his wide receivers right now and 0-16 looks more and more likely.
31. Kansas City Chiefs-
The net point difference is three less than Cincinnati, sometimes it's the small things that separate teams that are this bad.
30. Cincinnati Bengals-
No Carson Palmer means no chance.
29. St. Louis Rams-
A whopping 197-point differential on the year beats the Lions by more than 40 points. Ouch.
Week 13 NFL Power Rankings: Just plain bad
28. Oakland Raiders-
McFadden had a breakout game but Al Davis has made some curious decisions in recent years leading fans to wonder if things will ever be good again under him.
27. San Francisco 49ers-
Mike Martz experiment is basically a failed one.
26. Seattle Seahawks-
Tough for year Holmgren, an underrated coach.
Week 13 NFL Power Rankings: Mediocrity Ahoy!
25. Houston Texans-
Steve Slaton was a good find this year.
24. Cleveland Browns-
Brady Quinn is not the savior after all, at least not yet.
23. Jacksonville Jaguars-
Things have gone south in a hurry for Jack Del Rio's team.
22. San Diego Chargers-
Colts loss a crippling blow.
Week 13 NFL Power Rankings: The Average
21. Philadelphia Eagles-
McNabb benching could be season's death knell.
20. Green Bay Packers-
Aaron Rodgers still a solid QB considering it's his first year.
19. Miami Dolphins-
Exceeding expectations but not quite there yet.
18. Chicago Bears-
First place in an awfully poor NFC North.
17. Minnesota Vikings-
Got talent, where's the coaching and QB play?
16. Buffalo Bills-
Lee Evans sure is fun to watch.
15. Denver Broncos-
Improving but still vulnerable on defense.
14. Washington Redskins-
Average team without Portis and not much better with him.
Week 13 NFL Power Rankings: Contenders?
13. Tampa Bay Buccaneers-
With Jeff Garcia at QB they'll get a playoff spot but probably won't go too far.
12. Atlanta Falcons-
Building a great foundation for the future.
11. New Orleans Saints-
Fun to watch but can they win shootouts in the playoffs?
10. Arizona Cardinals-
Kurt Warner for MVP!? Maybe not but he's had a great year.
9. Dallas Cowboys-
Could climb fast with Romo back.
8. Baltimore Ravens-
Ed Reed is a phenomenal player, period.
7. Indianapolis Colts-
A bit shakier than they appear at first sight...but still a contender with Manning at the helm.
6. Pittsburgh Steelers-
Offensive line is uncharacteristically shaky....
5. New England Patriots-
Trade Tom Brady! Okay that's a bad idea but Cassel is catching fire.
4. Carolina Panthers-
DeAngelo Williams is a home run threat.
3. New York Jets-
Favre could lead them to division title.
2. Tennessee Titans-
Easy win vs. Lions this week.
1. New York Giants-
A complete and superior team in an NFL that is full of parity. Back-to-back seems like a good possibility at this point.
