Power Rankings for Week 14
Each week after Monday Night game(s) has concluded, I’ll publish my list of NFL power rankings. Here is the pecking order for Week 14.
—
1) Green Bay Packers – Does it even matter whom they play now?
2) New Orleans Saints – Not much offense by their standards, but still got it done against the Titans.
3) Baltimore Ravens – Terrell Suggs swallowed Dan Orlovsky whole.
4) Pittsburgh Steelers – Gritty Big Ben leads Steelers to victory.
5) Houston Texans – Texans took a squeaker in Cincy.
6) San Francisco 49ers – Some sort of cosmic symmetry in former Stanford coach being beaten by, you know, the Cardinal(s).
7) New England Patriots – Held off the Redskins in Washington.
8) New York Jets – Sanchez continues string of strong performances.
9) Detroit Lions – Lions outlasted Vikes at home.
