Continue reading →: Seattle Seahawks: 2013 Week 6 NFL Power Rankings (#2)
Last week: 1 (-1) Record: 4-1 I thought when the Seahawks won in Carolina (after winning in Chicago, Washington, blowing out Buffalo, and almost winning in Atlanta late last year) that it meant the Seahawks had turned a corner on the road. However, they almost lost in Houston and then…

Last week: 3 (+0) Record: 5-0 I honestly feel like this team is as good as the Seahawks and Broncos. They are deadly at home and they proved last week they can play well on the road as well. They move the chains on 81% of opportunities and opponents move…

Continue reading →: New England Patriots: 2013 Week 6 NFL Power Rankings (#4)
Last week: 4 (+0) Record: 4-1 The Patriots are moving the chains on 70% of chances this season. For a team that was moving the balls at about an 85% rate in 2012, that’s unheard of. Things will get better as Danny Amendola gets healthier and Rob Gronkowski returns and…

Continue reading →: San Francisco 49ers: 2013 Week 6 NFL Power Rankings (#5)
Last week: 5 (+0) Record 3-2 Remember when everyone freaked out just because they lost 2 of 3 games. Good times. Losing 2 of 3 games isn’t a big deal. It’s just more noticeable at the start of the season. They’ve won the last two games by a combined score…

Continue reading →: Green Bay Packers: 2013 Week 6 NFL Power Rankings (#6)
Last week: 6 (+0) Record: 2-2 The Packers seem to have disproportionally more injuries than most teams. They had the most injuries in the NFL last year in terms of adjusted games lost. Usually that type of thing usually doesn’t predict future injuries, but so far this year Casey Hayward…

Last week: 7 (+0) Record: 5-0 The Titans were the best team the Chiefs had played thus far this season. Their first 4 opponents had a combined record of 4-16. However, they could have easily lost in Tennessee (without Jake Locker) if it weren’t for some fluky turnovers, including a…

Continue reading →: Indianapolis Colts: 2013 Week 6 NFL Power Rankings (#8)
Last week: 14 (+6) Record: 4-1 Either the Colts are a legitimate Super Bowl contender this season or the Seahawks still struggle on the road like last season (when they lost in Miami, St. Louis, Arizona, and Detroit). I think it’s a little bit of both. The Colts are a…

Continue reading →: Detroit Lions: 2013 Week 6 NFL Power Rankings (#9)
Last week: 8 (-1) Record: 3-2 It’s amazing how powerless the Lions’ offense is without Calvin Johnson, but it’s understandable considering he’s the best receiver in the NFL and everyone else is a bunch of scrubs. Whether or not they can win in Cleveland this week probably depends on his…

Continue reading →: Dallas Cowboys: 2013 Week 6 NFL Power Rankings (#10)
Last week: 10 (+0) Record: 2-3 The Cowboys may be tied for the division lead, but they almost beat the Broncos and they are easily the best team in the division. With 5 games left against the worst division in football, starting with a home game against the Redskins this…

Continue reading →: Cincinnati Bengals: 2013 Week 6 NFL Power Rankings (#11)
Last week: 12 (+1) In 2011 and 2012, the Bengals were 18-4 against non-playoff teams and 1-11 against playoff teams. This year, they’ve beaten the Packers and Patriots, who are probably playoff teams, but lost to the Browns. It’s very possible that they are just a better team this year,…
