Here is our updated power rankings! Can you believe we are so far along in the season? It has gone to quick! This ranking was completed by staff writer Jon New.
1. New England Patriots – Hard to argue against the Patriots at #1 with a blowout win against a 9-2 division rival.
2. Atlanta Falcons – Yet another Atlanta win against a good division rival in Tampa Bay. The Falcons appear in the drivers seat for a 1st round bye, and would love home field throughout the playoffs given Matt Ryan’s success there.
3. Pittsburgh Steelers – Gutsy win by the Steelers against Baltimore on Sunday. The Steelers may be hitting their stride at the perfect time.
4. Baltimore Ravens – Baltimore lost a heart breaker to Pittsburgh on Sunday Night. The good news for the Ravens they won on the road in the playoffs last season and might have to do it again this year if they end up with the wild card.
5. New Orleans Saints – The Saint are showing no signs of a Super Bowl hangover with a come from behind win at Cincinnati. Pretty impressive feat by a team who seems to have no true running back.
6. New York Jets- The Jets got crushed by New England on Monday Night Football. It was a huge loss for the Jets who could have been in the drivers seat for the AFC East division. Now they will be fighting for their wild card lives.
7. Chicago Bears – I dont trust the Bears, but its hard to argue with their record and first place standing in the division
8. Green Bay Packers - Green Bay would really appreciate it if the Bears would lose a game. Regardless they are still in the division hunt.
9. Philadelphia Eagles – Philadelphia took care of business against Houston and is in control of their own destiny in the division. 
10. Kansas City Chiefs – Kansas City keeps on winning and now holds a commanding lead in the division. I wouldn’t feel to comfortable if I were the Chiefs with Phillip Rivers and San Diego breathing down my neck.
