NFL
Power Rankings for Week 5 of the 2009 season. Each week our team of football
experts will pass judgment on each NFL team and rank them accordingly.
It seems like every weekend the New England Patriots are playing an undefeated
team. The Patriots
head to Denver where Josh McDaniels will be scheming against his former mentor
Bill Belichick. Most people didn't even give the Broncos a chance to beat the
Cowboys. They are definitely one of the surprise stories of the 2009 season so
far. Also, let's not forget about Monday Night performance by Brett Favre
against the Packers. Could we see a hangover in St. Louis this upcoming weekend?
Teams on the RISE: Jaguars, Broncos
Teams on the FALL: Titans, Ravens
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). |
