Week 6 Power Rankings of the NFL

Here’s something I’m going to try to do every week. So here we go...

1. New York Football Giants (5-0)— They are the most complete football team in the NFL. Even with Eli’s plantar fasciitis, he was able to throw for 173 yards and 2 TD’s. Also, Ahmad Bradshaw is quietly turning into an elite back in the NFL.

2. Minnesota Vikings (5-0)— One name: Adrian Peterson. The guy’s a monster. Just ask Eric Wright of the Cleveland Browns. You can ask the Packers’ offensive line about Jared Allen.

3. New Orleans Saints (4-0)— They’re winning with DEFENSE. Drew Brees can put up insane numbers and win or he can throw zero TD’s and win. Big test this weekend against the Giants.

4. Indianapolis Colts (5-0)— Peyton Manning is making superstars out of his no-name receivers. Pierre Garcon and Austin Collie are becoming household names because of Peyton.

5. Denver Broncos (5-0)—They took down the Pats, which is no easy task when Tom Brady is on the other sideline. Mike Nolan has a stout defense. Here’s a quick stat for everybody: Kyle Orton is a winner, his overall record is 26-12.

6. Atlanta Falcons (3-1)—Did anyone see the offensive explosion against the 49ers? Enough said.

7. Philadelphia Eagles (3-1) —Donovan McNabb went off on the Buccaneers. Jeremy Maclin, the rookie out of Missouri, had a coming out party with 2 TD’s and 146 receiving yards.

8. Cincinnati Bengals (4-1)—Who dey? Could easily be 0-5, but the Bengals are proving that they are clutch in key moments.

9. New England Patriots (3-2)—You can never count out the Patriots and Tom Brady. They have to start winning on the road though.

10. Chicago Bears (3-1)—Which Jay Cutler will come to play against the Falcons? Bears fans better hope it’s not the one that played the Packers in Week 1.

11. New York Jets (3-2)—This defense can stop anybody as long as they don’t run the Wildcat. The Jets shouldn’t have any problems with Buffalo, who could only muster up 3 points against the Browns.

12. Pittsburgh Steelers (3-2)—The defense gave up 335 yards to the LIONS. And now they have to go the rest of the season without Aaron Smith. The Browns are coming to town, so mark it as a W for the Steelers.

13. Baltimore Ravens (3-2)—Joe Flacco is proving last year wasn’t a fluke. The defense is showing some signs that they are missing Rex Ryan.

14. San Francisco 49ers (3-2)—They finally have Michael Crabtree. But I don’t think he could have helped against Atlanta. Last week was the first time the defense looked “lost” to say the least.

15. Dallas Cowboys (3-2)—How ‘bout them Cowboys? Dallas had an ugly win against Kansas City, but I think Romo has found a go-to receiver in Miles Austin. It’s hard to think that with all the Cowboys’ great receivers, Miles Austin sits atop the list in the “most receiving yards in a game” category.

16. Arizona Cardinals (2-2)—Last year’s Super Bowl team went 6-0 on the road against NFC West foes. They have a trip to Seattle this week, which is key game for Arizona if they want a chance at another NFC West title.

17. Green Bay Packers (3-2)—The offensive line has got to play better if they want to contend.

18. Miami Dolphins (2-3)—The Dolphins ran the Wildcat to perfection against the Jets. They found their QB in Chad Henne.

19. San Diego Chargers (2-2)—They have a chance to knock off the Broncos on Monday. Norv Turner is not a head coach, he is a coordinator. Until they get rid of Turner, this team will continually be 8-8 every year, or worse.

20. Seattle Seahawks (2-3)—Seattle might have the best home field advantage in the NFL. They have had 2 shutouts at home this year. I doubt Arizona will be shutout this week though.

21. Houston Texans (2-3)—Is this team that some people picked to win the AFC South? I don’t think so.

22. Jacksonville Jaguars (2-3)—41-0? That’s how bad they lost to Seattle. The Jags have got to be more consistent to win some more ballgames.

23. Washington Redskins (2-3)—Where do I start with my Skins? The offensive line is terrible. The play calling is terrible. The rushing game is terrible. Jason Campbell has approximately 0.1 seconds to throw the ball.

24. Carolina Panthers (1-3)—The Panthers finally got that first win, unfortunately against my Redskins, but they way they did it was impressive. Overcame a 17-2 deficit, and now they play the Buccaneers and the Bills. Carolina will be 3-3 when those games are done with.

25. Detroit Lions (1-4)—They played Pittsburgh great. The put up 335 yards of offense with 21 first downs.

26. Cleveland Browns (1-4)—Worst game ever against the Buffalo Bills. I’m still trying to figure out how Derek Anderson completes 2 passes and wins the game. SHENANIGANS.

27. Tennessee Titans (0-5)—Time for Vince Young?

28. Buffalo Bills (1-4)—Could only score 3 against the Browns. Wow.

29. Kansas City Chiefs (0-5)—Blew the lead against the Cowboys. The defense is the worst in the league. (worst in yards allowed)

30. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (0-5)—This is definitely a rebuilding year for the Buccaneers.

31. St. Louis Rams (0-5)—2009 version of the Detroit Lions. They actually may break the record for consecutive losses.

32. Oakland Raiders (0-5)—Complete circus in Oakland.
