1.\u00a0 New England Patriots
\n<\/strong>Support groups are forming now to deal with the \u201cPerfect Patriots\u201d.\u00a0 The Giant\u2019s run game and pass rush gives us all some hope.\u00a0 That\u2019s assuming the Giants care to play the game.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0 Indianapolis Colts<\/strong>
\nThe Colts continue to motor along.\u00a0 They know these wins are meaningless unless they total up to a win in New England next month.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0 Dallas Cowboys<\/strong>
\nHome field should mean a ticket to the big game for Dallas.\u00a0 Can they possibly deal with the distraction machine that will crank up once Romo and TO hit town?<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0 Jacksonville Jaguars<\/strong>
\nThe Jags seem to have the right mixture of power and finesse to match up with either Indy or New England.\u00a0 Neither wants a visit from this team next month.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0 San Diego Chargers<\/strong>
\nThey\u2019ve finally put it together in San Diego.\u00a0 It just doesn\u2019t appear they have enough to win a road playoff game in Indy or New England.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0 Green Bay Packers<\/strong>
\nThe Rams exposed the run defense, and the Bears exposed it a lot.\u00a0 Green Bay has to tighten things up in the front seven.\u00a0 Favre has never won in Dallas.\u00a0 He will need to now if he wants another shot at the Lombardi.<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0 Pittsburgh Steelers<\/strong>
\nThe Steelers and Chargers have to be wishing they were NFC teams.\u00a0 Neither have the horses for an upset in Indy or New England.<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0 Seattle Seahawks<\/strong>
\nThe Seahawks are a nice team from a very weak division; nothing more.<\/p>\n

9.\u00a0 New York Giants<\/strong>
\nI couldn\u2019t figure out how this team won ten games; then I looked at the schedule.\u00a0 The Gnats haven\u2019t beaten anybody.\u00a0 This farce has just a couple more weeks of run time.\u00a0 There are no losing teams in the playoffs, even in the NFC.<\/p>\n

10. Tampa Bay Buccaneers<\/strong>
\nThe banged-up Bucs needed the rest more than a win Sunday.\u00a0 They can make someone miserable in January if Garcia is healthy.<\/p>\n

Bottom Five<\/strong><\/p>\n

28. Baltimore Ravens<\/strong>
\nTroy Smith wasn\u2019t terrible Sunday.\u00a0 He should get a real shot at the job next season for the Ravens.<\/p>\n

29. Oakland Raiders<\/strong>
\nThe penalty-filled minutes leading to Warren Sapp\u2019s disqualification were as ugly as any I\u2019ve seen in football.\u00a0 Can we just give this team off next week to get ready for the draft?<\/p>\n

30. New York Jets<\/strong>
\nPennington has a way of compiling a gaudy completion rate while not producing anything to help the team win.\u00a0 Has anyone in the history of this league completed more passes for negative yards than Chad?\u00a0 He needs to be a former Jet next season, so people can forget and move on.<\/p>\n

31. Atlanta Falcons
\n<\/strong>The Falcons made an effort Sunday, which is something they haven\u2019t done in a few weeks.\u00a0 Does anybody want to coach this team next year?<\/p>\n

32. Miami Dolphins<\/strong>
\nI think Parcells should take notice of how this team continues to play hard despite the miserable season they are having.\u00a0 That should tell him something about Cam Cameron.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
