Week 11 NFL Power Rankings (From an Amateur)

Dear NFL players: Someone please beat the Patriots. Let us know that other teams still have a chance.

Week 11:

1. New England Patriots (10-0) (Previous rank: 1): This is getting more and more ridiculous. Can anyone take the wind out of the Patriots' sails? So far, the answer is no. Randy Moss and Tom Brady are unstoppable. Their domination is making the rest of the NFL season torture for anyone who is not a Patriot’s fan.

2. Dallas Cowboys (9-1) (Previous rank: 2): Tony Romo might not be a comedian, but he is great at improv. Along with TO, T-RO showed the Redskins what offense was all about. Defensively, however, the Cowboys struggled: Washington had their chance to win this one.

3. Green Bay Packers (9-1) (Previous rank: 3): Remember back when Brett Favre was contemplating retirement? I wonder if he made the right decision. They dominated the Panthers from start to finish and, what is even weirder, Favre played against a quarterback older than him.

4. Indianapolis Colts (8-2) (Previous rank: 4): What is going on with the Colts? Sure, they won, but this was an ugly victory. On paper, the Chiefs were the better team. The Colts look like they are about to implode: they need Marvin Harrison back, stat.

5. New York Giants (7-3) (Previous rank: 8): This victory belongs to the New York defense, but Eli Manning wasn’t too shabby either. They didn’t score a slug of points, but they did just enough. This was a big win on the road for a team that thrives on momentum.

6. Jacksonville Jaguars (7-3) (Previous rank: 6): They had a nice day passing the ball and their run defense left the Chargers in need of a new battery. The Jags just might be the sleeper of the AFC.

7. Pittsburgh Steelers (7-3) (Previous rank: 5): After a come-from-behind win last week, it seemed like the Steelers would have been fired up for victory. Well, not exactly. They failed to make plays on both sides of the ball. Losing to the Jets in overtime has got to hurt.

8. Cleveland Browns (6-4) (Previous rank: 11): Ten games down and the Browns still have a winning record: my, my, my. They eked it out against the Ravens but heck, they’ll take it. This game was a kick!
