NFL Week 6 Power Rankings

The top two remain intact while there is some shuffling with the Saints and Packers suffering rough losses. The Chiefs fell to the Colts and there is no more unbeatens after only 5 weeks.

Here is how the rankings stack up for Week 6:

Week 6
Rank (Last week)
1)(1) Baltimore Ravens (4-1): They seem to have their running game back and will duel it out with Pittsburgh for now for bragging rights.
2)(2) Pittsburgh Steelers (3-1): They return from a break with their quarterback in position to make a run against the league.
3)(5) New York Jets (4-1): Another good game by the defense as QB Mark Sanchez has yet to make a bad mistake.
4)(6) Atlanta Falcons (4-1): They are doing enough of the right things and now find themselves in great position in the NFC South with the Saints sliding.
5)(8) New England Patriots (3-1): They come off the break with a new yet old receiver replacing WR Randy Moss.
6)(9) Indianapolis Colts (3-2): Was not pretty at times, but efficient enough for them.
7)(11) Chicago Bears (4-1): Despite horrid quarterback play, their defense and HB Matt Forte were more than enough.
8)(3) New Orleans Saints (3-2): They must continue to ask where their fast paced offense is.
9)(4) Green Bay Packers (3-2): Things are starting to unravel and injuries are piling up.
10)(10) Kansas City Chiefs (3-1): A tough first loss to swallow, but they kept QB Peyton Manning from throwing a touchdown.
11)(7) Houston Texans (3-2): Their defense looked like they were a shell of their potential selves.
12)(17) Washington Redskins (3-2): This team continues to show some grit and got a big win.
13)(20) Tennessee Titans (3-2): They took advantage of a sloppy Cowboys team.
14)(18) New York Giants (3-2): Another solid defensive game has to have them thinking they can win the NFC East with this style of play.
15)(21) Philadelphia Eagles (3-2): Not bad, but not great in terms of their offensive performance.
16)(14) Miami Dolphins (2-2): They return from a bye with some work to do.
17)(16) Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-1): They continue to surprise the league by already matching last year's win total.
18)(23) Jacksonville Jaguars (3-2): They did what they were supposed to do: beat up on a bad team.
19)(26) Arizona Cardinals (3-2): They found a way to get to QB Drew Brees and steal a big win.
20)(12) Minnesota Vikings (1-3): Another victory taken away by an error by QB Brett Favre despite his second half.
21)(13) Dallas Cowboys (1-3): The panic button might be about to be hit very soon if they don't start playing like a contending team.
22)(15) San Diego Chargers (2-3): The up and down ride for their season continues.
23)(19) Cincinnati Bengals (2-3): They are still missing a few pieces to complete games.
24)(22) Denver Broncos (2-3): They need more production from their running game and defense.
25)(28) Oakland Raiders (2-3): They finally broke the strangle hold the Chargers had on them for 7 years.
26)(24) St. Louis Rams (2-3): QB Sam Bradford has probably loss his top weapon for the season.
27)(25) Seattle Seahawks (2-2): They had a week off and come back with a new weapon at running back.
28)(30) Detroit Lions (1-4): Talk about getting their first win.
29)(27) Cleveland Browns (1-4): Their quarterback situation is banged up and have Pittsburgh ahead.
30)(29) San Francisco 49ers (0-5): More costly mistakes lead to another loss.
31)(31) Carolina Panthers (0-5): Doesn't seem to matter who starts at quarterback, the results are the same.
32)(32) Buffalo Bills (0-5): More of the same as they can't seem to find a way to win.

3 teams remain without a win and two 1-3 squads (Dallas and Minnesota) are set to face up in a big game at this point in the year for both.
