Week 12 Power Rankings

[Draft Crazy]

1. Patriots
2. Panthers
3. Cardinals
4. Bengals
5. Giants

 

[MileHigh64]

Good list but I'd have either the Broncos or the Packers in the number five slot.

 

[Draft Crazy]

I had the Packers then thought no the Broncos beat them.

I was confused who to put there. Nobody really seems to want it.

Hard to put the Vikings when they just lost to the Packers.

 

[MileHigh64]

Well when you're confused, simply insert the Denver Broncos. It's a feel-good thing.

 

[Draft Crazy]

I highly considered that.

 

[CEH]

Kansas City has won its last four games by an average of 22.75 points, outscoring its foes 130-39 in that span. The Chiefs are also third in giveaway-takeaway ratio, fourth in RPI and fifth in net points.

I would have them #6

 

[SpiritOf77]

No way I put the Giants over the Broncos

- Pats
- Panthers
- Broncos
- Cards
- Bengals

 

[femurov]

Yeah, I disagree with the Giants being in the top 5. They may not even be in the top 5 on the NFC... ok, maybe I would, but definitely not top 5 overall.

 

[SpiritOf77]

Number One, HERE WE COME !!!

I BELIEVE IN BROCK !!!!!!!!!!

1) Carolina--With the Patriot injuries I think if these two teams played right now I would put Carolina winning by double digits. Very impressed with this team
2) Patriots--Still the Champions and still have a very underrated defense while they hope for some of the offensive weapons to come back. They just find ways to win
3) Arizona--This is probably the most balanced team in the league. They can beat you pretty much which ever way they want to. I'm actually thinking if somebody asked me right now I would say AZ is my pick to win the Super Bowl this year.
4) Denver--I'm buying into the Brock hype. I think he is at least a good enough game manager that this team will be what Kubiak has envisioned from day 1 of win with a strong running attack, timely passing, and great defense.
5) Cincinnati--2 game skid but I think they are still a great team. Really hard for me to see anybody outside of these 5 teams winning the Super Bowl this year.

 

[CEH]

Carolina
New England
Arizona
Pittsburgh
Cincy

Carolina
New England
Arizona
Pittsburgh
Cincy

Good call on Pitt, a definite sleeper team that should make a late season surge.

For perspective here's the point differential leaders:
Pats- +147
Panthers- +127
Cards- +120
Bengals- +80
Chiefs- +59
Packers- +47
Steelers- +45
Broncos- +39

Outside of the top 3 which are pretty crystal clear the Chiefs really seem to be the hottest team. But I think the Steelers have momentum too. Teams like the Broncos and Packers really need statement games to show they're not fading.
