1. New England 6-1 (3)...The Pats are a serious threat again.
2. Indianapolis 5-2 (6)...Tough call here but if the Colts played the Jets or Ravens in a playoff game tomorrow I'd take the Colts.
3. N.Y. Jets 5-2 (1)...Z-E-R-O!
4. Baltimore 5-2 (4)
5. N.Y. Giants 5-2 (7)
6. Pittsburgh 5-2 (2)...Until the offense shows a little more rhythmn, I don't think they would beat many of the top teams right now.
7. Atlanta 5-2 (8)
8. Tennessee 5-3 (5)
9. New Orleans 5-3 (11)
10. Green Bay 5-3 (15)...Big time defensive players and a top quarterback. It's too bad they lost players like Grant and Finley, but they may still have a chance.
11. Kansas City 5-2 (10)
12. Miami 4-3 (14)
13. Houston 4-3 (9)
14. Philadelphia 4-3 (13)
15. Oakland 4-4 (21)...Raiders have outscored the opposition 92-17 the last two weeks and now they get the rival Chiefs in the Black Hole.
16. Tampa Bay 5-2 (20)...I don't know if any team is having more fun this year.
17. Washington 4-4 (12)
18. Chicago 4-3 (16)
19. Minnesota 2-5 (17)...Schedule eases up some in the second half but this team may be damaged beyond repair.
20. Seattle 4-3 (18)
21. San Diego 3-5 (26)
22. St. Louis 4-4 (24)
23. Jacksonville 4-4 (27)
