MVS NFL Power Rankings: ALLISON RANKS! Week #10

ALLISON RANKS! - Week 10

 1. New England Patriots- Gronkowski the next Randy Moss?  Tom Brady sure liked him on Sunday night when the Patriots schlacked the Steelers in Pittsburgh.

 2. Atlanta Falcons- I don't love Matt Ryan as much as Joe Theismann, but the Falcons have proven that they are legit and if they win home field advantage throughout the playoffs, will most likely go to the Super Bowl.

3. New York Jets- The Jets are winning even though they're not playing great football.  Good teams find ways to win.

 4. Baltimore Ravens- The NFL Network didn't even acknowledge that the Falcons had an opponent Thursday night, but the Ravens almost pulled off an amazing comeback win against the best home team in football.

 5. Indianapolis Colts- When you think of the Colts, you think of Peyton Manning.  When the Bengals now think of the Colts, they're going to think of the Colts defense, which forced them into 5 turnovers on Sunday.

 6. Pittsburgh Steelers- They say the second most important position on the football field is the left tackle and without one, the Steelers couldn't produce anything on offense for 3 quarters Sunday night.  Every time they've had a chance this season to take over sole possession of 1st place in the AFC North, they've fallen short.  Awww shucks.

 7. Philadelphia Eagles- No more quarterback controversy in Philly.  Michael Vick is the most exciting player in the NFL.

 8. Green Bay Packers- It seems like the Packers play the Vikings A LOT, but this  upcoming Sunday might be Rodgers final knockout punch to his predecessor.

 9. New York Giants- The power went out during the Giants/Cowboys game Sunday afternoon.  Nobody checked to see if it were Tom Coughlin that cut the power in hopes to suspend the game to a date that the Giants would show up because they didn't on Sunday.

 10.   New Orleans Saints- The Saints have a very manageable month ahead taking on the Seahawks, Cowboys, Bengals and Rams.

 11.  Tampa Bay Buccaneers- The combination of LaGarrette Blount and Cadillac Williams rushed for 153 yards and Josh Freeman threw for 2 TDs as the Bucs rebounded to crush the Panthers.

12.   Jacksonville Jaguars-  There were a lot of Hail Marys being said as the ball was in the air as the buzzer sounded in Jax Sunday.

 13.  San Diego Chargers- The Chargers will have a prime opportunity to prove they belong in the playoff hunt next week as Denver comes to town for MNF.

 14.  Oakland Raiders- We'll see next Sunday (at Pittsburgh) if the Raiders really have emerged back into playoff talk or if they just play in a weak division and therefore get to play very average teams over and over.

 15.   Chicago Bears- Da Bears D forced the crippled old man into 4 turnovers on Sunday and took the remaining air out of the Vikings season.

 16.  Tennessee Titans-  Randy Moss had 1 catch in the 4th quarter for his third team of the season.  Kerry Collins and Vince Young both tried at QB, but the Dolphins also using an abundance of QBs silenced the Titans.

Bottom Feeder- Carolina Panthers… Not only can they not win games, but they keep their players healthy.  Maybe Tony Pike is the answer at QB that they've been looking for.  He's about as big a name as Matt Moore.
