As we inch closer to the post season, there is still a lot of shifting that could happen.
| Team | Record | Rank | Reason | Previous Ranking |
| Seahawks | 11-2 | 1 | Tough loss on the road that could have been different had San Fran scored a td and left more time on the clock. Still the best defense tops the best offense in the rankings. | 1 |
| Broncos | 11-2 | 2 | Good win from the offense. This defense is still suspect. | 2 |
| Saints | 10-3 | 3 | Nice win against a quality defense. Although, they still may need to go back to Seattle. | 6 |
| Chiefs | 10-3 | 4 | They gave Redskin fans a reason to leave early. | 4 |
| 49ers | 9-4 | 5 | This is a tough team that has the defense to make some noise in the post season. | 5 |
| Panthers | 9-4 | 6 | The top is crazy, some weeks they look like world beaters, some weeks Drew Brees comes in a carves you up. | 3 |
| Bengals | 9-4 | 7 | Great team win. Nick Seuberling was pleased with the play of Brandon Tate. | 7 |
| Eagles | 8-5 | 8 | Who can run in the snow? LeSean McCoy can run in the snow. | 9 |
| Patriots | 10-3 | 9 | Has there been another team that is surrounded by so much controversy with the officials? | 8 |
| Cardinals | 8-5 | 10 | Carson Palmer is playing well for this team who has won 5 of their last 6. | 11 |
| Colts | 8-5 | 11 | They were outplayed by the Bengals, I expected them to show up a little better. | 10 |
| Dolphins | 7-6 | 12 | Nice win in Pittsburgh to knock the Steelers out in the snow. | 15 |
| Lions | 7-6 | 13 | The Lions seem to not want to win their division. Not sure what to think about this team. | 13 |
| Bears | 7-6 | 14 | Nice win for the bears and a great performance by Josh McCown. | 16 |
| Chargers | 6-7 | 15 | The Chargers probably need to win out to have a shot at the post season. They could do it. | 18 |
| Ravens | 7-6 | 16 | Can you really feel good about your improbable win against the Vikings without Peterson? | 14 |
| Cowboys | 7-6 | 17 | Was it the cold or do the Cowboys just not have it in them this season. They got thrashed by the Bears. | 12 |
| Steelers | 5-8 | 18 | The Steelers are done in by a toe on the line from Antonio Brown. | 17 |
| Jets | 6-7 | 19 | Geno Smith just throws up a prayer in the end zone and his receiver brings it down. That is not going to happen often Jets fans. | 22 |
| Packers | 6-6-1 | 20 | Matt Flynn had a good day as the Packers keep the division interesting. | 23 |
| Rams | 5-8 | 21 | Ran into a surprisingly decent Cardinals team. | 19 |
| Giants | 5-8 | 22 | They got pasted by the Chargers. Good to see Chargers fans not holding the grudge against Eli. They booed him constantly. | 20 |
| Titans | 5-8 | 23 | Another team that needs answers from the coaching staff. | 21 |
| Buccaneers | 4-9 | 24 | Just hammered the Bills. This running game could be scary. | 27 |
| Bills | 4-9 | 25 | 4 picks for E.J. Manuel, not what you want to see from him this late in the season. | 23 |
| Browns | 4-9 | 26 | They Brownsed it up when they could have beat New England. | 26 |
| Vikings | 3-9-1 | 27 | Maybe they should just shut Adrian Peterson down at this point. | 25 |
| Raiders | 4-9 | 28 | This team just fell off the map. More questions than answers at this point. | 28 |
| Jaguars | 4-9 | 29 | Winners of 4 of the last 5. Where was this play to start the season? | 29 |
| Falcons | 3-10 | 30 | What else to say, no defense and a struggling offense the entire season. | 31 |
| Redskins | 3-10 | 31 | Mike Shanahan may not make it to the end of the season. | 30 |
| Texans | 2-11 | 32 | Gary Kubiak out. The Texans are a bad team what looks good on paper. They could turn it around quickly with the right coach. | 32 |
