NFL Power Rankings, Week 11

So here's my take:

TEAM
1. Tennessee Titans (9-0)	Another week, another close victory keeps the Titans undefeated. Even without their normally sure fire running game, they were still able to follow Collins’ arm to a win.
2. NY Giants (8-1)	Great offensive performance propelled them to another big victory. With Jacobs running like that, it’ll be hard for anybody to play with them.
3. Carolina Panthers (7-2)	As of right now, D’Angelo Williams is doing his best to hold of Jonathan Stewart for the starting tailback job. He’s helping the Panthers win some games too.
4. Washington Redskins (6-3)	While the Cowboys tried to regroup and the Giants beat back the Eagles, the Redskins sat at home, getting rested to make a run at the NFC East crown.
5. Pittsburgh Steelers (6-3)	Willie Parker claims his injury isn’t that serious, but Steelers fans have to be holding their breath a little bit. Mewelde Moore is doing a fine job, but he is just not the same back.
6. Tampa Bay Bucs (6-3)	They have some work to do to make that offense more consistent and it starts with getting Joey Galloway back involved.
7. Arizona Cardinals (6-3)	Needed a late stand to beat the 49ers, but a win is a win. They need Hightower to give them a bit more, but with Breaston, Boldin and Fitzgerald all involved, they are scary.
8. New England Patriots (6-3)	Didn’t look pretty, but behind Cassel’s legs and their defense, they climbed their way to the top spot in the AFC East and reminded people that they have other players besides Tom.
9. Baltimore Ravens (6-3)	A week after Ray Rice goes off, John Harbaugh claimed both RBs would see equal time. Then McGahee dominated carries and scored 2 TDs. Maybe he tricked the Texans.
10. Atlanta Falcons (6-3)	Continued to play undefeated football at home. Matt Ryan is starting to look really comfortable, but that secondary really clamped down on Brees and the Saints.
11. Philadelphia Eagles (5-4)	Missed a huge opportunity to make up ground in the division. That defense never used to let up that many points. It can’t all be b/c of the Giants.
12. Indianapolis Colts (5-4)	Started to claw back to relevance after a huge win against the Steelers, but Marvin Harrison may never be the same WR that he was even two years ago.
13. NY Jets (6-3)	Yes, it was 47 points against the Rams, but that defense has been playing great over the last few weeks. Maybe it really was money well spent.
14. GB Packers (4-5)	Needed that win to keep pace in the division, but also to keep spirits high. On the plus side, Ryan Grant is looking strong again. On the negative, they are now under .500
15. Miami Dolphins (5-4)	The wildcat formation has led the Dolphins to another win and out of the cellar in the AFC East. They’ve been overshadowed by the Falcons, but this is a very nice one year turn-around.
16. Buffalo Bills (5-4)	They have won only one of their last five games after starting 4-0. Even more problematic than that is that three of those games were to teams in AFC East.
17. Minnesota Vikings (5-4)	Avoiding a big loss to the Packers when Crosby missed that 52-yard field goal. They look good when AP and Chester both get involved in the offense.
18. Dallas Cowboys (5-4)	I don’t think there could have possibly been a team that needed the bye week more. When Romo is under center, they can play with anybody, so don’t write them off yet.
19. Denver Broncos (5-4)	Two RBs on the IR, another with a lingering injury and Mike Shanahan is still able to pull something out of his hat. Torain looked pretty good for his first action.
20. Chicago Bears (5-4)	Maybe it was the Titans, or maybe it was Rex Grossman, but that wasn’t the same offense that has been taking the field the last few weeks.
21. New Orleans Saints (4-5)	They have some problems on offense with Shockey starting to cause the same problems he did in New York. They get Bush back after the bye, but it may be too late.
22. Jacksonville Jaguars (4-5)	There’s the running game that went missing over the last few weeks. Maybe Detroit is just what the Jaguars needed to get back on track.
23. Cleveland Browns (3-6)	Brady Quinn did what he could to keep the Browns in it, but they may have secured themselves a place outside the playoffs with that one and now they have a QB controversy on their hands.
24. Houston Texans (3-6)	Another team that just isn’t the same without their QB in the game. It’s shocking that there was supposed to be a controversy between Shaub and Rosenfels at one time.
25. SD Chargers (3-5)	OK, maybe they needed the bye week more than the Cowboys. They have just been terrible this season after coming so close to another Super Bowl trip last year.
26. St. Louis Rams (2-7)	The good will after those two wins seems to have worn off in St. Louis. The offense has continued its slide into the dumps and the defense is now playing equally as bad.
27. Oakland Raiders (2-7)	Three combined points in their last two games. That’s not going to make Al Davis happy in his Owners box.
28. Seattle Seahawks (2-8)	Seneca Wallace isn’t losing games for the Seahawks. The bad news: the rest of the team is bad enough to lose them for him.
29. SF 49ers (2-7)	Almost pulled off the upset against the Cardinals on the road, but came up just short. But that’s kind of been the story lately huh?
30. KC Chiefs (1-7)	They needed to get their RBs healthy, but Charles could do some damage in the league as he gets comfortable with the offense and the schemes.
31. Cincinnati Bengals (1-8)	Well, they can at least rejoice in not being the worst team in the NFL. Now if they can try to get more out of Cedric Benson than any other team has.
32. Detroit Lions (0-9)	The winless streak continues after getting drubbed by Jacksonville. Can they only hit Calvin Johnson on deep balls? How about some intermediate routes?
