| 1 | Indianapolis | 7-0 | Sitting idle and getting healthy this week. Going to smear NE next week on MNF. |
| 2 | Denver | 6-2 | Embarassed the Eagles in the fourth quarter last week. This team is a contender. |
| 3 | Pittsburgh | 5-2 | A good defense against a team whose offense is offensive. Nothing special in last weeks win. |
| 4 | Seattle | 5-2 | Good time for a bye for this team as well. On their way to the playoffs. |
| 5 | NY Giants | 5-2 | Destroyed an explosive Redskins team. Quite impressive. |
| 6 | New England | 4-3 | This team is just not that good. Look for them to keep falling. |
| 7 | Atlanta | 5-2 | Not playing well before the bye. Let's see if they get the problems fixed. |
| 8 | San Diego | 4-4 | Is underachieving. |
| 9 | Philadelphia | 4-3 | Their luck ran out and a dose of reality is about to set in. |
| 10 | Carolina | 5-2 | They keep winning and have to be considered a threat. |
| 11 | Jacksonville | 4-3 | Offense proves to be their downfall on a consistent basis. Will make the playoffs but they are not a player in the championship race. |
| 12 | Dallas | 5-3 | Playing through injuries and winning. Tuna still has his act together. |
| 13 | Cincinnati | 6-2 | Quiet win against a struggling Packers does not a good team make. |
| 14 | Tampa Bay | 5-2 | Exposed pretenders. Teams with weak schedules have a better chance of making the playoffs. |
| 15 | Chicago | 4-3 | Somehow they keep winning with the rookie. If he gets better this team can win in the playoffs as they have the defense. |
| 16 | Oakland | 3-4 | Looks like that pill is still working. Managed to outscore the Titans. |
| 17 | St. Louis | 4-4 | Got a win and will see the return of Bulger after the bye week. |
| 18 | Washington | 4-3 | One has to wonder if they are really that bad or if the Giants were just on a mission for their departed owner. |
| 19 | Kansas City | 4-3 | Lost to a team we can't figure out. |
| 20 | Miami | 3-4 | Positioned well for a run at the AFC East crown and the possibility of knocking down the Patriots along the way. If Frerotte stops missing wide open receivers they will get the job done. |
| 21 | San Francisco | 2-5 | Perhaps the only opportunistic bad team in the NFL. They jumped up to this spot out of respect for going out there and exposing an overachieving team. |
| 22 | Baltimore | 2-5 | Their offense is in a coffin on halloween and can't score a TD to win a game. |
| 23 | New Orleans | 2-6 | Trying to get through the season. |
| 24 | Buffalo | 3-5 | Continues their slide after having the game handed to them against the champions and leaving without a win. |
| 25 | Detroit | 3-4 | Any team who has a healthy QB and instead plays one on crutches has to be questioned. |
| 26 | Minnesota | 2-5 | Walking around with a giant fork in their back. |
| 27 | Arizona | 2-5 | Embarassed in Dallas when they could have gotten back in the game. |
| 28 | Green Bay | 1-6 | Could it get worse? |
| 29 | Tennesee | 2-6 | This team is about to be in a rebuilding phase. |
| 30 | Cleveland | 2-5 | Will be surprise if they can show their faces this week. |
| 31 | NY Jets | 2-5 | Vinny is now a week older. |
| 31 | Houston | 1-6 | Are going to be looking far ahead towards their next win. |
