As the Packers get their first loss of the season, Jeff finds it necessary to include the New Orleans Saints in the Gold level. Plus a few more teams join the mossy green.

(13-1) Oh well, was fun while it lasted, but I KNOW you will fix the middle of that O-line this week. Show me I’m right!

(10-4) Though the black-outs were the Niners icing Big Ben’s ankle… come to think of it that ankle probably could use some ice. |

(10-4) Too much game film on TJ Yates. Too bad. You might be a one and done playoff team.

(8-6) Romo is playing pissed off! Ryan is coaching smarter. Could equal post-season success.

(7-7) If you’ve actually gotten your house in order (finally) could be among most feared team in playoffs.

(8-6) Can you rebound from humiliation at hands of dream team in time for battle for NYC in NJ?

(7-7) Keep your Skelton out of the closet and lock Kolb in there instead. Eat the $$ and start the guy who wins!

(7-7) Playoffs? Could be. Best time to get dreaded Niners. Short week — at home — after they play emotional Monday night game.

(5-9) America’s team thanks you for the Giant fall from grace. Two more wins and your season is not a complete joke.

(5-9) So the problem was Sparano! That’s what Reggie Bush made it look like… and in the snow no less.

(6-8) Even losers win occasionally. Even David beats Goliath sometimes. Throw enough s*&% against the wall… you get my point.

(4-10) Maybe they fire Morris anyway and let the guys coach themselves. Couldn’t look much worse.

(2-12) Dan Marino is not sending you a Christmas card after allowing Brees to throw for 400+ yards.

(4-10) At least this week you lost to a good team. That’s got to be some consolation… right?

(1-13) One more win and you will have that other kind of streak going.

Your main argument for only having GB as the gold team has gone. I think I should be changed to Jeffers powerful rankings for teams with a good offence since defence doesn’t seem to matter to the rankings… :-)
A lot of bad teams! Did the great teams push up the bar or has the floor been lowered?
Jeff any chance of a Platinum or Diamond class above gold?
who belongs there? the ’72 Dolphins?
And “garbage juice brown” for the bottom?
Also, teams that BLEW a promising start should get special recognition.
wait wait now I am doing the Ravies in powerful ranking format.
Hi Jeff, enjoyed reading rankings as ever – I know I’m biased but that was way too harsh on my Chiefs, the defence has been playing at a high level for the last 5 games and this time the offense (thanks to the QB getting the play call after 15 seconds – before had to go through ego maniac Haley and end in confusion) was able to play simple football and look what happened. We have the weapons, Haley killed them, now he’s gone and suddenly the shackles are off. The defence is one of the NFLs best for the last few weeks, just look at Hali, Johnson, Houston, Flowers and Carr. Crennel is one of the best defensive minds in the game. To say we’re a bad team is not true, the offense has been I agree but D and special teams has been great. Orton was fantastic Sunday. We should definately be above Washington (5-9) and Buffalo (5-9) on current form. At the end of the day they’re your powerful rankings and I very much respect your opinion – love you guys and your awesome podcast, can’t wait for wk 16 preview. I’m with Jordan – ‘Chiefs for the superbowl’ – GO JORDAN!
Just hope we can beat the Raiders and then make Broncos vs Chiefs the AFC West bowl!
