NFL Power Rankings, Week 10

A lot of changes along the bottom half of the rankings this week as teams continue to show their true colors. And we still have one winless and one undefeated team in the NFL. Which one will remove the zero first?

So here's my take:

TEAM
1. Tennessee Titans (8-0)	They made plays when it counted and came away with yet another win. That defense is 100% for real and Chris Johnson is a treat to watch.
2. NY Giants (7-1)	They were licking their lips when the Cowboys came in without Romo. Jacobs was running people over all game and they destroyed Dallas.
3. Pittsburgh Steelers (6-2)	Came back after losing to the Giants and showed that they are still among the NFL elite. But they need Big Ben if they are going to remain that way.
4. Carolina Panthers (6-2)	Move up a spot without even playing. If only the NFL was always this easy.
5. Washington Redskins (6-3)	The score was a bit deceptive. The ‘Skins had almost the same amount of total yards and the same distribution among passing and rushing yards, but those two INTs by Campbell really hurt.
6. Philadelphia Eagles (5-3)	The running game couldn’t get off the ground and there was a lot of David Akers, but they never really looked to be in trouble against the weak Seahakws.
7. Tampa Bay Bucs (6-3)	They definitely weren’t convincing, but that was a pretty impressive comeback against the Chiefs and at this point in the season winning is all that really matters.
8. Arizona Cardinals (5-3)	Another impressive offensive performance from Warner and Co. They definitely will have a strong running game for years to come the way Hightower is playing.
9. GB Packers (4-4)	Came closer to beating the Titans than any other team has, but they let them off the hook way too many times. Maybe once Harris and Bigby shake the rust off they wont drop that picks.
10. Baltimore Ravens (5-3)	Cancel what I said last week, Ray Rice now has played the best game of his rookie career. McGahee was active, but didn’t play and Rice took full advantage.
11. New England Patriots (5-3)	Failed to take the top spot in the AFC East after getting beat by the kicker that they let go a year ago.
12. Buffalo Bills (5-3)	Played the two supposed doormats of the division and lost both games. Not the way you prove to people that you are a team to take seriously.
13. Atlanta Falcons (5-3)	Won that game on offense and defense, keeping the Raiders off the board and piling up some good numbers of their own. They may sneak into the postseason.
14. New Orleans Saints (4-4)	Reggie Bush probably won’t make it back this week, but if he comes back against KC and Deuce keeps running the way he has been, this offense is going to be a machine.
15. Dallas Cowboys (5-4)	They should have gone with Brooks Bollinger to start the game. Brad Johnson just has nothing left in the tank and now they have dug themselves a very deep hole.
16. Chicago Bears (5-3)	Rex Grossman led the comeback. But it’s hard for Bears fans to keep their hopes up when they have seen him fail so many times. Expect to see a lot of Forte until Orton comes back.
17. Indianapolis Colts (4-4)	Not a typical Colts win, but they put one in the right column with solid defense and special teams. Just wasn’t as exciting as that game normally is.
18. NY Jets (5-3)	Great performance by their defense covered up a bad game from Favre and helped the Jets to a huge win and a share of first in the AFC East.
19. Minnesota Vikings (4-4)	Solid performance from Adrian Peterson and the Vikings are right back in the thick of things in the NFC.
20. Houston Texans (3-5)	Couldn’t pull off a fourth win in a row, and it probably didn’t help that they had to play most f the game without Shaub who was as hot as any QB in the NFL the past few weeks.
21. Miami Dolphins (4-4)	Maybe this team has a little more fight in it than I originally thought. The running game was held in check and they were still able to pull out a nice win.
22. Denver Broncos (4-4)	They get equally enigmatic Cleveland this week to hopefully turn things around, but with Pittman and Hall out for the year and Young injured, it’s going to be a tall order.
23. Cleveland Browns (3-5)	Getting outscored 17-0 in the 4^th quarter is not a good way to win a football game. Insert Brady Quinn at QB and hope that he can make some more things happen on offense.
24. SD Chargers (3-5)	They better use the bye week to figure some things out, because they are far too good a team to be playing this poorly.
25. Jacksonville Jaguars (3-5)	Ladies and Gentleman we have the first team to lose to Cincinnati. It’s a pretty sad week in Jacksonville right now and that vaunted running game is struggling something fierce.
26. St. Louis Rams (2-6)	That’s where Torry Holt went. Now if they can only get Holt and Avery to make plays in the same game they may start winning with a bit more consistency.
27. Oakland Raiders (2-6)	Played flat and got embarrassed by a Falcons team that they could have beaten. Its two young team that are at different levels of rebuilding right now.
28. Seattle Seahawks (2-6)	Well it was fun for a week. This is just not a team that is going to scare anybody. Especially anybody respectable.
29. SF 49ers (2-6)	Needed the bye week badly. They have a new QB in, but it’s still not Alex Smith. I wonder if he’s career has taken the David Carr route.
30. KC Chiefs (1-7)	On the positive side, they don’t appear to be giving up. But they have got to start winning some of these games that they are just handing back to other teams.
31. Cincinnati Bengals (1-8)	The Bengals finally put one in the win column. Chad Ocho Cinco woke up enough to catch 2 TD passes and Cedric Benson showed he still has a pulse. Maybe they won’t end up with the worst record.
32. Detroit Lions (0-8)	Almost matched the Bengals with their first win, but the stars just do not seem to be aligned for the Lions this year.
