First week where nobody moved either in or out of the Sweet 16.
1. Houston (--) - Should have lost this past week, but didn't. Stays on top, for now.
2. Green Bay (--) - I think, as of this moment, that they'll be the NFC representative in the SB.
3. San Francisco (+1) - Impressive win over Chicago vaults them over the Falcons.
4. Atlanta (-1) - Not playing as well as they were earlier in the year.
5. New England (+1) - Just obliterated a pretty decent 6-3 team.
6. Denver (-1) - Won, but they weren't as impressive as NE was.
7. Baltimore (--) - Could have lost to a Roethlisberger-less Steeler team.
8. NY Giants (+3) - Got a bye and moved back up the charts.
9. Chicago (-1) - Got handled pretty good by the Niners, and if Cutler is out for much longer, they'll drop in these rankings even further.
10. New Orleans (+4) - Yep, I'm gonna do it. Moving them up despite a 5-5 record. They're starting to really play ball.
11. Pittsburgh (-2) - Played really hard and the D is doing a good job, but without Big Ben, they're going to struggle offensively.
12. Tampa Bay (+3) - Now at a surprising 6-4, they're in playoff contention.
13. Seattle (-1) - Bye week.
14. Minnesota (-1) - Bye week.
15. Indianapolis (-5) - Showed promise, but they still have a ways to go to play with the big boys.
16. Dallas (--) - Still in the NFC East hunt.
Moving up: SF, NE, NYG, NO, TB
Moving down: Atl, Den, Chi, Pit, Sea, Min
Moving in: nobody
Moving out: nobody
