NFL Power Rankings: Week 15
By thelandryhat
| # | +/- | Team | Comment | |
| 1 | — | Tennessee Titans | The Titans can thank my vote for rookie of the year (Chris Johnson) for their rushing dominance. | |
| 2 | — | New YorkGiants | The Giants are walking in the footsteps of last years Dallas Cowboys. They better clean up there act before Sunday, or the Cowboys could upset them in Texas Stadium. | |
| 3 | — | Pittsburgh Steelers | The Steelers did not beat the Cowboys on Sunday. The Steelers beat Tony Romo. | |
| 4 | — | Carolina Panthers | Watching this team on Monday Night Football made me a believer. This team could creep into the number one playoff seed. | |
| 5 | +2 | Baltimore Ravens | The Ravens man-handled the Redskins. This was not the Redskins from mid-season. The Ravens are still impressive. | |
| 6 | — | Indianapolis Colts | The Colts may be the most dangerous playoff team in the AFC. I would never sleep on number 18 on the road to the playoffs. | |
| 7 | -2 | Dallas Cowboys | I’m still sick from the loss to the Steelers, but more good came from this game than we realize. Besides the pick six at the end of the game, our D outplayed the Steelers top ranked D. If our Offense and Defense can click down the stretch, we can beat anyone.
| |
| 8 | +4 | Tampa Bay Buccaneers | It’s kind of funny, I never really respected the Buccaneers this entire season… until now. It’s strange that I realized how good this team is after they lost to the Panthers. But this team can be a force in the playoffs. | |
| 9 | — | Atlanta Falcons | The Falcons chose a bad time to lose. They still played a hell of a game, but the Saints played a little bit better. This team is still very alive in the playoff hunt. | |
| 10 | +3 | Arizona Cardinals | The Cardinals are looking to jump the future NFC North leaders. | |
| 11 | -1 | Philadelphia Eagles | If the Eagles would have beaten the Bengals, I would bet on them to get into the playoffs. It’s still possible, but they will need help from a few other teams. | |
| 12 | +2 | Miami Dolphins | I think that the Jets are more complete, but the Dolphins may be more dangerous. | |
| 13 | -5 | New York Jets | The Jets need to win out to fight off the Dolphins and Patriots. | |
| 14 | -3 | New England Patriots | I think the Patriots chances were destroyed when Tedy Bruschi got carted off the field. We’ll see. | |
| 15 | +4 | New Orleans Saints | Reggie Bush gives this team a chance to win out. With the entire division still on each others schedule, this Saints are still alive. | |
| 16 | — | Minnesota Vikings | The Vikings may need to win out to keep the Bears out of their playoff spot. | |
| 17 | +1 | Denver Broncos | Denver squeaked by the Chiefs, but a win is a win and this team is in control of there own fate. | |
| 18 | -3 | Chicago Bears | The Bears will be on the Vikings’ tail until the final tick of the season. | |
| 19 | -2 | Washington Redskins | Some one shut Clinton Portis up, please. He might have spent his last year in burgundy and gold.
| |
| 20 | — | San Diego Chargers | The Chargers should play L.T. in the preseason next year. Maybe he’ll wake up before week 13. | |
| 21 | — | Houston Texans | If the Texans were playing like this a few weeks ago, they would have a good shot at a playoff spot. | |
| 22 | +1 | Buffalo Bills | The Bills crumbled. J.P. Losman led the team in rushing. Are you kidding me? | |
| 23 | +1 | San Fransisco 49ers | The 49ers are like the Texans… Getting hot too late. | |
| 24 | -2 | Green Bay Packers | After hammering the Bears the Packers drop three in a row… Damn.
| |
| 25 | +5 | Cleveland Browns | The Browns tried to improve their defense in the offseason, but somehow it got worse. And then the offense started to sputter and you’re left with a bad team again. | |
| 26 | -1 | Seattle Seahawks | The Seahawks are out off my bottom five. They aren’t winning games, but they are trying to at least. | |
| 27 | — | Kansas City Chiefs | The Chiefs had a shot at winning that game. | |
| 28 | -2 | Jacksonville Jaguars | The Jaguars are as big of a disappointment as the Chargers. | |
| 29 | — | Oakland Raiders | The Raiders beat 2 division leaders and the Chiefs. If I were them I would try to lose out and snatch Crabtree from Texas Tech. | |
| 30 | -2 | Detroit Lions | This team may not have a win, but they have more heart than the two teams I ranked below them. | |
| 31 | — | St. Louis Rams | Two fluke wins over the Cowboys and Redskins can’t mask the terribleness that this team illuminates. | |
| 32 | — | Cincinnati Bengals | Thank you for tying with the Eagles. |
