Power Rankings - Week 9

I split up the two conferences because I'm too mentally challenged for a 32 team single table format.

AFC

1. New England - Anything less than 16-0 would be an upset
   
2. Indianapolis - They gave it away, but should feel good about a rematch
   
3. Pittsburgh - I'm still not sold they can beat the Patriots or Colts
   
4. Tennessee - They need to develop a passing game to be a real threat
   
5. Jacksonville - Their reliable defense was obliterated in New Orleans
   
6. Cleveland - They keep winning, but they need a reliable defense
   
7. Buffalo - Statistically bad, but they are 4-4 and should be 6-2
   
8. San Diego - Their offense didn't show up, that's a concern
   
9. Kansas City - Tough game against this season's team of destiny
   
10. Houston - Still not very good
    
11. Baltimore - They are falling off the deep end
    
12. Denver - 31st in point differential per game
    
13. Cincinnati - Rough, rough year, reminiscent of 90's
    
14. Oakland - They are not a good football team
    
15. New York Jets - As many losses as the Rams and Dolphins
    
16. Miami - Bye week stopped the bleeding

NFC

1. Dallas - Only lost to the Patriots
   
2. Green Bay - This years team of destiny
   
3. New York Giants - Bye week reduced some of their hype
   
4. Detroit - No comment
   
5. New Orleans - One of the best in last four weeks
   
6. Washington - They beat the Jets and Dolphins by a combined six points
   
7. Tampa Bay - Up and down goes the roller coaster
   
8. Minnesota - Adrian Peterson
   
9. Seattle - They will win the West by default
   
10. Carolina - They are going to the Super Bowl, right?
    
11. Chicago - They are not our of it in the NFC
    
12. Philadelphia - They needed that one bad, too bad it was against Dallas
    
13. Arizona - Same old Cardinals
    
14. Atlanta - Enjoy the win while you can
    
15. San Francisco - This was my pick to win the NFC West
    
16. St. Louis - They are still trying to score their 100th point of the season
