1) New England Patriots: I have no idea why their week 11 matchup with the Bills was picked for the Sunday night game on the flex schedule. Only a Patriot fan would want to see New England beat the Bills by 6 touchdowns. If the Patriots win next week they will clinch the AFC Least.
2) Dallas Cowboys: Their victory over the Redskins wasn't that impressive, but the Redskins always play the Cowboys tough.
3) Green Bay Packers: Chug, Chug, Chug. Brett Favre and the Packers just keep chugging along. Week 13 is the big matchup between the Pack and the Cowboys. I can hardly wait.
4) Jacksonville Jaguars: David Garrard is back and the Jaguars are the team nobody wants to face in the playoffs. I think there is a good chance the Jags will win the AFC South and force the Colts to make the playoffs as a wildcard team.
5) New York Giants: They are a little unpredictable, but they are capable. Eli is going to have to come up big if this team hopes to go anywhere in the playoffs. I just don't see it happening.
6) Pittsburgh Steelers: I should probably rank them lower after losing to the Jets, but I decided to cut them a little slack because they are still 7-3. Pittsburgh can't afford to lose any more games against non-contenders. The Steelers still have tough games remaining on their schedule against Jacksonville and New England. I think the Steelers will finish the season 11-5 at best.
7) Cleveland Browns: This team has a chance to make the playoffs as a wildcard even with the worst defense in the NFL. Heck, if Pittsburgh loses any more games to teams like the Jets the Browns might even have a chance to win the Division. Check out the Browns' remaining schedule.
8) Tennessee Titans: They have an incredible defense and a great coach. I'm just not convinced Vince Young is the best quarterback on their roster. They better hope they don't have any more slip ups like they did against Denver on Monday night because Cleveland just might take their playoff spot.
9) Indianapolis Colts: I almost dropped them out of my Power Rankings after they struggled against the Chiefs, but there just wasn't another team good enough to move into my top ten. The Colts are a playoff team, the only question is whether or not they can hold on long enough to win their Division.
10) Tampa Bay Buccaneers: They show signs every once in awhile. I think the Bucs will win the NFC South pretty easily. Take a look at their remaining schedule. They could conceivably win all their remaining regular season games. I think they will be an early out in the playoffs, though.
Honorable Mention: Seattle Seahawks, Detroit Lions, Denver Broncos, San Diego Chargers.
