NFL
Power Rankings for Week 12 of the 2009 season. Each week our team of football
experts will pass judgment on each NFL team and rank them accordingly.
The are still two teams still in contention for perfection as we enter week 12 of the
2009 NFL season. The Saints and Colts will both have tough matchups in Week 12.
The Saints play the Patriots on Monday Night and the Colts play the Texans in
Houston. Chris Johnson is still looking good on his statement
about the Titans running the table
and finishing the season 10-0 (read
more).
Teams on the RISE: Packers, Chargers, Titans
Teams on the FALL: Panthers, Broncos
We have added a new column to our power rankings table. It is called "Record
Should Be" and it represents what the team's record should probably be had it
not been for some fluke play or a really bad officiating call (i.e. Ed Hochuli
in last year's Chargers / Broncos game). |

their own 28 yard line.
