Continue reading →: Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Week 10 NFL Power Rankings (#11)
Last week: 11 (+8) Record: 4-4 The Buccaneers are surging thanks to Doug Martin’s improved play and the improved chemistry between Josh Freeman and new free agent acquisition Vincent Jackson. They’ve won 3 of 4 and sit at 4-4 with a +41 points differential that ranks 6th in the loaded…

Continue reading →: Miami Dolphins: Week 10 NFL Power Rankings (#12)
Last week: 12 (-2) Record: 4-4 In spite of a close road loss in a previously underrated Colts team, the Dolphins are still legitimate playoff contenders and if history is any indication, they’re more likely to make it than some other borderline playoff teams in the AFC right now, other…

Continue reading →: Green Bay Packers: Week 10 NFL Power Rankings (#13)
Last week: 13 (-5) Record: 6-3 The Packers are 6-3 after a 2-3 start, but since their Houston blowout win, all 3 of their games have been very easy, against St. Louis, Jacksonville, and Arizona and I haven’t been impressed with their performance overall. Defensively, they’re about as banged up…

Continue reading →: Baltimore Ravens: Week 10 NFL Power Rankings (#14)
Last week: 13 (-1) Record: 6-2 They may be 6-2, but dating back to week 1, this team has not won a single game by 10 or more and only one was decided by more than a touchdown, last week at Cleveland, a game in which the lowly Browns actually…

Continue reading →: San Diego Chargers: Week 10 NFL Power Rankings (#15)
Last week: 15 (+0) Record: 4-4 I was not impressed with their showing at home against the crappy Chiefs last week. If not for two defensive touchdowns, that could have easily been at the very least an embarrassingly close win to an inferior opponent for a team that held a…

Continue reading →: Detroit Lions: Week 10 NFL Power Rankings (#16)
Last week: 20 (+4) Record: 4-4 With the NFC East struggling lately outside of the Giants and the NFC West struggling lately outside of San Francisco and Seattle (who the Lions beat), the Lions are suddenly right back in the thick of things after a disappointing 1-3 start. I think…

Continue reading →: Dallas Cowboys: Week 10 NFL Power Rankings (#17)
Last week: 17 (+0) Record: 3-5 The Cowboys will stop underachieving once they fire Wade Phillips…oh wait… they did that 2 years ago. In an interview shown before Sunday Night Football, Owner/GM Jerry Jones said that if the GM were anyone other than him, he as Owner would have fired…

Continue reading →: Philadelphia Eagles: Week 10 NFL Power Rankings (#18)
I think there are two ways Andy Reid can save his job. If he makes the playoffs or if Nick Foles shows some promise. The former isn’t happening most likely. At 3-5, they’d have to go 7-1 the rest of the way to make the playoffs most likely and while…

Continue reading →: Minnesota Vikings: Week 10 NFL Power Rankings (#19)
Last week: 12 (-7) Record: 5-4 In his last 4 games, Christian Ponder completed 73 of 126 (57.9%) for 724 yards (5.7 YPA), 4 touchdowns, and 6 interceptions, all less than stellar team performances (0-3-1 ATS, 1-3 SU). The only reason it was even close against Seattle was because Adrian…

Continue reading →: New Orleans Saints: Week 10 NFL Power Rankings (#20)
Last week: 22 (+2) Record: 3-5 The Saints held the Eagles to 13 points, but I still have no confidence in this defense. They surrendered 400 yards for the 8th straight game, an NFL record to start a season, but the Eagles’ dumb mistakes forced them to settle for 13…
