NFL Power Rankings - Patriots Too High?

This week I took the Power Rankings from ESPN. Let's get them up and then we can hammer them out:

1. Ravens
2. Steelers
3. Falcons
4. Giants
5. Jets
6. Patriots
7. Packers
8. Eagles
9. Saints
10. Colts
11. Titans
12. Raiders
13. Buccaneers
14. Chiefs
15. Texans
16. Chargers
17. Dolphins
18. Redskins
19. Bears
20. Jaguars
21. Rams
22. Vikings
23. Browns
24. Seahawks
25. Cardinals
26. Bengals
27. Lions
28. 49ers
29. Broncos
30. Cowboys
31. Panthers
32. Bills

I have been saying for a couple weeks now and this time I am upping the ante, the New York Giants are not only the best team in the NFC but I think they are the best team in the NFL. The have quick strike offense and they can also run the ball. Their defense is suffocating. They play tough and right now, I think they could be the best out there.

I also think the Pats may be too high. This weekends game could change how I feel, but they have not swayed me with their on the road affairs. The Packers deserve to be higher than the Pats. If the Patriots beat the Steelers this weekend, then all bets are off.
