Since each NFL season carries with it the weight of expectations and the ultimate stark realities for every team and their fans, I tried something a little bit different for the final edition of NFL Power Rankings for the 2009 season. With the end of the holiday season and the end of the NFL season running parallel to one another, I decided to get some of my friends, colleagues, and readers involved in the assessment of their respective team’s season. It’s a ranking by the people, for the people, if you will.
Also, I did not try to justify any non-playoff team being better than one who actually made ‘the tournament’ – you’re either good enough or you’re not (I’m looking at you Steelers, Texans, and Falcons). On that note, I wish you all a Happy New Year, thanks for reading and one last time…let’s navigate all the way from No. 1 to No. 32…

The NFL Power Rankings for Week 17 sets up a week of positioning for and trying to make the playoffs for several teams. The Colts finally went down (with a touch of controversy), the Chargers fought their way all the way to the top of the list, and the AFC playoff picture became no clearer after a full slate of meaningful games in Week 16. I suppose I should mention winning streaks for the Bucs and Browns and now that I have…let’s navigate our way all the way from No. 1 to No. 32…

The NFL Power Rankings for Week 16 finally sees some shifting of teams at the top of the list and one big, fat, massive logjam at 7-7. The Saints finally went down courtesy of Big D, the Steelers miraculously avoided their sixth loss in a row by scraping by the Pack, and the Browns and Bucs looked like teams that were far better than their records suggest. On those notes, plus an extra one to wish you all a very happy holiday season, let’s make our way all the way from No. 1 to No. 32…

The NFL Power Rankings for Week 15 STILL features two undefeated teams in the Saints and Colts, two red hot teams in the Chargers and Packers, as well as the Bucs and Rams who just can’t get out of their own way. Let’s make our way all the way from No. 1 to No. 32…

The NFL Power Rankings for Week 14 have the Saints and Colts remaining at the top after dodging their respective bullets as well as the Chargers and Cardinals reminding everyone that they will be playoff threats in a top-heavy 2009 season. Let’s make our way all the way from No. 1 to No. 32… |

Injuries and upsets were big stories over the weekend and the worst game of the year was actually the best. The Colts and Saints moved to 10-0 making it only the third time in league history with two undefeated teams at this stage, the AFC West threw down with the AFC North and won (!), and the Browns found yet another way to lose. Let’s make our way all the way from No. 1 to No. 32… |

The old adage about football being a game of inches has come to the forefront of the entire league after the epic decision made by Patriots coach Bill Belichick against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday night. Clearly, things did not work out in his team’s favor. The Bengals have made believers out of everyone (even me, finally), the Chargers caught the Broncos sooner than expected, and the Browns look just plain awful. Let’s make our way all the way from No. 1 to No. 32…

The slate is officially clean on winless teams thank to Tampa Bay's upset of the Packers which means maybe the creamsicle orange jerseys are a blessing and not the curse they were once thought to be. The Saints and Colts both dodged bullets to stay perfect, the Bengals continue to impress us, the Giants have us scratching our heads, and the Patriots are right near the top again which altogether make the NFL gloriously unpredictable. Let's make our way from No. 1 all the way down to No. 32... |

We have whittled our way down to two teams (Colts, Saints) on top of the mountain and they both appear to be poised to remain there for quite some time. The Ravens sent a message that they are not to be forgotten about and the Cowboys followed suit. The Rams scratched and clawed their way out of the cellar and we have a new team blazing its way toward a dubious distinction despite a week off…here we go from No. 1 to No. 32…

One would thi
nk that you could not ask for a better game than matching up the top two teams in the power rankings only a blowout left us…unfulfilled. Tom Brady had Patriots fans thinking of the glorious days of yesteryear (it was 2007, relax), Favre-mania is running wild in Minny, and the QB passing numbers across the entire league had fantasy geeks awkwardly high-fiving each other on Monday morning at the water cooler. Here we go from the NEW No. 1 New Orleans Saints all the way to ol’ reliable Rams at No. 32…
