NFL Power Rankings

1. Patriots - Tom Brady may be the greatest quarterback of all time. He does more with less. He has definitely moved into my all time top 3 (Sounds like a good future blog).

2. Eagles - Big win against the Giants. There was no hang-over from the Monday night game against the Skins.
3. Jets - Mark Sanchez is maturing before our eyes. The last two weeks the team has won because of his play down the stretch. And has there been a more perfect pass thrown this season than the throw down the sideline to Braylon Edwards between the corner and safety? I don't think so. It may be time for Rex to loosen the reins on the kid so there won't be so many close 4th quarter games.

4. Steelers - The Raiders looked like they were in pre-season mode. The Steelers are good but not that good.

5. Ravens - Team did what it needed against a team (Carolina) that is without its starting backfield and with a coach who is on his last leg.

6. Falcons - Big test this week as the team hosts the Pack. A win will go a long way toward solidifying play-off positioning and maintaining the division lead on the Saints and Bucs.

7. Saints - Team is starting to roll again offensively. Key injured players are returning to the line-up just in time for the stretch run.

8. Packers - Team is rolling. Aaron Rogers can take a huge step forward Sunday. The knock on him is that he never wins the big game. A road game against a conference foe that is also in the hunt for home-field advantage counts as a big game.

9. Tampa Bay - The more I see Tampa play, the more impressed I am with Josh Freeman. He is cool under pressure and his team definitely follows him. I can't wait to see what he looks like when he gets more experience and a couple more weapons. He'll be deadly.

10. Chicago - The Bears are an interesting team. At times they can look sloppy on offense and Jay Cutler is always a play away from a crippling interception. But they are great on special teams and very good on defense so they will always be in games. Now if they can just get more production from their running game they could be on to something.
