3. New Orleans (4-0). The Saints didn't drop from 1 to 3 because they had their bye this week. They dropped from 1 to 3 because of how impressive the Vikings were last Monday against Green Bay and Sunday against the Rams. The Saints and the Giants will have the chance to prove who's better this Sunday in the Superdome.

Saying the Vikings were impressive against the Rams is the equivalent of Chuck Norris roundhouse kicking a midget. There is no contest.

Neither Minny or NYGiants played a professional team this past weekend. These wins should have zero impact other than they handily won games they should have. I am fine with us being placed 3rd though and think we are that spot. We have to prove we can beat the Giants and guaranteed we will be #1 then.

Drew Brees and the Manning brothers’ are sitting pretty in the top 3 spots for the second straight week in WEEI’s NFL Power Rankings. However, they shouldn’t get too comfortable in those top spots because next week guarantees some sort of shakeup. The Giants will face Drew Brees in the Superdome this Sunday. The NFL currently has five teams that are unbeaten and those teams all round out the top 5. Saints-Colts-Giants-Vikings-Broncos.

The Denver Broncos finally earn some respect this week and jump all the way to No.5. After doubting the Broncos for four staight weeks, Josh McDaniels and his team proved that they are indeed capable of beating good teams in the NFL. Props to the Broncos and their fans.

A new team moves into the dreaded No.32 spot in the rankings. Despite having one win in a league with four winless teams, the Oakland Raiders crumble to dead last.

The Patriots fall six spots to No.11 and into their lowest rank all year. After a poor performance in Denver, New England will look to rebound against a Titans team still looking for their first win.

1. (Last week, 1) 4-0-0 The Bye week came at a perfect time for the Saints. They will be well rested when the New York Giants come to town to battle it out for the top spot in the NFC.

2. (2) 5-0-0 The undefeated Colts head into their bye week playing at a high level. They will use the time off to rejuvenate and get some key players in the lineup. The rich get richer when safety Bob Sanders, and cornerbacks Kelvin Hayden and Marlin Jackson all return in Week 7.

3. (3) 5-0-0 Eli Manning says his heel is fine and he intends on not missing any practices this week. They’ll need Eli at 100% when the Giants face their first true test of the season Sunday against the Saints.

4. (6) 5-0-0 Not to overshadow Brett Favre but the Vikings defense has been outstanding and doesn’t get enough credit. Minnesota’s D leads the league in sacks, recovered fumbles, and is tied for 5th in the league for most interceptions. Any quarterback that plays the Vikings has to be scared looking over at Jared Allen.

5. (13) 5-0-0 A man admits his mistakes, I admit I underestimated the Broncos. Denver showed the NFL they are for real on Sunday. The Broncos D is allowing 8.6 points a game and was able to stop Tom Brady and the Patriots offense from winning the game. Impressive.

6. (10) 3-1-0 Coming off a loss to the Patriots, the Falcons flew into San Francisco and made a statement after blowing out the 49ers. Matt Ryan and the Falcons scored 6 touchdowns against San Fran’s D.

These week's ESPN rankings are actually pretty fair - Pats at #10 and Steelers at #13. It seems like they finally decided to look at the standings while putting this together.
