NFL Power Rankings - Week 7
It didn't look like the Indianapolis Colts would keep their perfect record intact in the first quarter on Monday night, but Peyton Manning and company stormed back to defeat the St. Louis Rams 45-28, and improve their season mark to 6-0. That keeps the Colts on top of the National Football League for another week, and also on top of the Week 7 edition of the NFL Power Rankings. Sitting right under the Colts this week are a trio of 5-1 teams, the Denver Broncos, Cincinnati Bengals, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, all of whom picked up wins last Sunday. Down closer to the bottom, we've finally given in and dropped the Minnesota Vikings all the way to No. 29. They might yet have a surge in them, but right now they get to sit with the Arizona Cardinals, the San Francisco 49ers, the Houston Texans, and the rest of the league's dregs. And the Vikings have been bad for bettors as well - their 1-4 ATS mark has likely seen them cursed, and not just by Minnesota boat operators. Also at 1-4 ATS on the season? The Cards and Texans. Sitting at 1-5 ATS? The Rams, who gave false hope to their supporters Monday and then choked. Here is the Week 7 edition of the NFL Power Rankings. 01 - Indianapolis Colts 6-0 SU, 4-2 ATS (Last Week 01)Next three weeks: The Texans, a bye week, and then a matchup with their nemesis, the New England Patriots. 02 - Denver Broncos 5-1 SU, 3-2-1 ATS (Last Week 03)Went up big early versus the Patriots, then held on in the fourth quarter to improve to 5-1 on the season. 03 - Cincinnati Bengals 5-1 SU, 4-1-1 ATS (Last Week 07)Bounced back from their first loss of the season to take out the Titans, with another big game from Carson Palmer. 04 - Tampa Bay Buccaneers 5-1 SU, 3-3 ATS (Last Week 09)One big win, one big loss. Topped the Dolphins in T-Bay last week, but likely lost QB Brian Griese for the season. 05 - Atlanta Falcons 4-2 SU, 3-3 ATS (Last Week 05)Michael Vick and company had to pour it on in the fourth quarter Sunday to keep from losing to the last-place Saints. 06 - Jacksonville Jaguars 4-2 SU, 4-1-1 ATS (Last Week 06)Nothing special for Byron Leftwich versus the Steelers (19-of-35 for 177 yards passing) - but his team still got the win. 07 - Carolina Panthers 4-2 SU, 3-3 ATS (Last Week 08)Chris Weinke led the team on their game-winning drive Sunday, but Jake Delhomme should be fine for next week. 08 - Pittsburgh Steelers 3-2 SU, 3-2 ATS (Last Week 02)Hurry back Ben Roethlisberger - backup QB Tommy Maddox couldn't get the job done versus the Jaguars. 09 - New England Patriots 3-3 SU, 3-3 ATS (Last Week 04)Only at .500 after the first six games of the season, but at least they're still tied for first in the AFC East division. 10 - Philadelphia Eagles 3-2 SU, 2-3 ATS (Last Week 10)Don't get an easy game to follow up their bye week - will be hosting the Chargers in Philadelphia on Sunday. 11 - Seattle Seahawks 4-2 SU, 4-2 ATS (Last Week 15)Won in a walk over the Texans on Sunday night; Shaun Alexander rushed for 141 yards and four scores in the win. 12 - Dallas Cowboys 4-2 SU, 2-4 ATS (Last Week 16)Julius Jones didn't play on Sunday - but the Drew Bledsoe / Keyshawn Johnson combo kept the offense moving. 13 - San Diego Chargers 3-3 SU, 3-2-1 ATS (Last Week 13)Dropped the Raiders 27-14 on Sunday to up their season mark to 3-3, thanks to another big Tomlinson effort. 14 - Kansas City Chiefs 3-2 SU, 3-2 ATS (Last Week 14)Kept pace with the Broncos in the AFC West division by winning last week, but are still two wins behind the leader. 15 - New York Giants 3-2 SU, 4-1 ATS (Last Week 11)Eli Manning and the offense sputtered versus the Cowboys on the weekend, knocking them out of first place. 16 - Washington Redskins 3-2 SU, 3-2 ATS (Last Week 12)Couldn't keep up with the Chiefs on the weekend, and fell by a 28-21 final score for their second straight loss. 17 - Buffalo Bills 3-3 SU, 3-3 ATS (Last Week 20)J.P. Losman will continue to sit as long as Kelly Holcomb is leading this team to wins. 18 - Baltimore Ravens 2-3 SU, 2-3 ATS (Last Week 24)Didn't light up the scoreboard versus the Browns, but didn't need to in order to top former Raven Trent Dilfer. 19 - St. Louis Rams 2-4 SU, 1-5 ATS (Last Week 17)Lost the game on Monday night, and lost Marc Bulger with a sprained shoulder. Jamie Martin had to take over. 20 - Detroit Lions 2-3 SU, 3-2 ATS (Last Week 18)Another mediocre effort from Joey Harrington in their loss last week - will be a controversy when Jeff Garcia returns. 21 - New York Jets 2-4 SU, 2-4 ATS (Last Week 19)How overworked is Curtis Martin going to get with Vinny Testaverde at the helm? 22 - Cleveland Browns 2-3 SU, 3-2 ATS (Last Week 21)Could only manage a field goal in their loss to the Ravens last week, and their passing game was largely ineffective. 23 - Miami Dolphins 2-3 SU, 2-3 ATS (Last Week 23)Ricky Williams in his return on Sunday: five carries for eight yards rushing, six catches for 22 yards receiving. 24 - New Orleans Saints 2-4 SU, 3-3 ATS (Last Week 25)Aaron Brooks turned in a solid performance versus the Falcons on Sunday, but it wasn't enough for them to win. 25 - Tennessee Titans 2-4 SU, 3-3 ATS (Last Week 26)Might have a poor record on the season, but at least they're nowhere close to the Texans and the division basement. 26 - Chicago Bears 2-3 SU, 3-2 ATS (Last Week 29)Even the struggling Bears had no trouble with the Vikings, rolling to an easy 28-3 win over Minnesota on Sunday. 27 - Oakland Raiders 1-4 SU, 2-3 ATS (Last Week 27)Not only did they fall to the Chargers last week, but Randy Moss was felled by a groin injury; Sunday status is TBD. 28 - Green Bay Packers 1-4 SU, 3-2 ATS (Last Week 28)First win of the season was followed by a bye week; will be going for their second victory versus the troubled Vikings. 29 - Minnesota Vikings 1-4 SU, 1-4 ATS (Last Week 22)How did this team manage to become MORE dysfunctional after getting rid of Randy Moss? 30 - Arizona Cardinals 1-4 SU, 1-4 ATS (Last Week 30)Come off their bye week into a matchup that they might be able to win - versus the Titans on Sunday afternoon. 31 - San Francisco 49ers 1-4 SU, 2-3 ATS (Last Week 31)Alex Smith was overmatched two weeks ago in their loss to the Colts; get the Redskins this week. 32 - Houston Texans 0-5 SU, 1-4 ATS (Last Week 32)What are their chances of getting that elusive first win this week? Not good - they have the Colts coming to town.
