The New Orleans Saints take their first "L" for the first time in 2k13 as they lose to the then undefeated New England Patriots on a TD pass from Pats QB Tom Brady to Rookie WR Kenbrell Thompkins. The Pats have made their case to be a Top 5 bonafide Sunday Outfit as the AFC East once again is shaping up to belong to Foxboro Football. The Denver Broncos beat the Jags but it was sloppy and you would be sloppy one week to blowing folks out scoring 40 plus a game...Winning like that gets really boring. The Chiefs are rolling and the Andy Reid Bandwagon is bigger than Kansas City BBQ...well almost. The Seahawks and 49ers will take care of business until they meet again here soon as they both get hard fought W's in Week 6.

NFL Week 7 Power rankings
Note: In Parenthesis is last week's rankings

1. #UnitedInORANGE (1) 6-0: They didn't struggle to beat the Jags as they just didn't blow the Jags out. Now they get Steve Urkle 2k13 in OLB Von Miller and that Defense will get a needed-boost in the Pass Rush.

2. #REDFriday (3) 6-0: Imagine that the AFC West is one and two in the Power Rankings which tells me that when they first meet it should be well-publicized and deservedly so. The Chiefs have one helluva Pass Rush to go with an Offense that has an Elite Running Back and a QB that refuses to turn the Pig over...hence 6-0!

3. #HAWKSNest206 (5) 5-1: They lined up versus a tough and physical Titans Bunch and lucky for 12's the Titans had a Science Project at QB in Ryan Fitzpatrick. Hawks RB Marshawn "Taste the Rainbow" Lynch had a day and the Hawks needed all that 70 plus in the Air and on the Ground!

4. #PATRIOTSway (6) 5-1: Who needs "Gronk" and the rest of what Tom Terrific had in 2k12. They just keep motoring along as though whose going to stop this. I am a firm believer when Tom calls its quits Bill will also...just saying! They need each other like Miley Cyrus needs to shut it down and fast!

5. #QUEST4Six (7) 4-2: They will not stop winning until they see 12's. Once again the Bird Gang of Arizona had them where they wanted them but didn't have enough horses to close the Niners out. Vernon Davis going off was a welcome sight to that 49ers Passing game.

6. #GeauxSAINTS (2) 5-1: There are no Moral Victories on Sunday but that Saints Team learned something playing the Pats and Tom Brady. You have to go win it and not sit back and thank it will fall in your lap! Not saying that's what the Saints did....but close that sucker out running the Pig and with a kneel down!

7. #WhoDEY (8) 4-2: They have been explosive on Offense the past two weeks but they just are not consistent enough to be called an elite contender. The Bengals do lead the AFC North but that is not saying much considering the north is having a below average season.

8. #CHEESEheads (10) 3-2: They are for real but losing both WRs in James Jones and Randall Cob for an extended period of time puts immense pressure on Lead Man McCarthy and QB A-Rog.

9. #BlueSwaggerCOLTS (4) 4-2: Tough loss at the Murph as they couldn't get anything going Offensively...absolutely nothing versus a banged up Bolts Front.

10. #RestoreTheRoar (12) 4-2: They showed some on Sunday in the Dawg Pound versus a legitimate Top 15 Defense. Lions RB Reggie Bush has meant everything then when the smoke cleared they find Rookie TE Joseph Fauria who caught just Three Pigs for Three TDs and three different Celebrations.  

11. #BelieveInMONSTERS (13) 4-2: The Bears grind and grind some more as they get by the G-Men last Thursday Night. That Bears "D" is hurting up front and they won't get DT Henry Melton back but they need Stephen Paea ASAP! WR Brandon Marshall might need to wear them Neon Green Nike Football Scooby Doos for his Cause and for more Targets as he went off on the G-Men Secondary.

12. #PURPLEBrowns (9) 3-3: They look one week like they are a fine-tuned machine. The next week they are mixed with American Pie and "Superbad" for a Fusion of..."Throw Ravens from the Train". Consistency from the Champs that's all Purple Reign Nation is looking for you Nimcompoops!

13. #AQUABoyz305 (14) 3-2: On a Bye Week and they move...throw an Umbrella in your Drink Fellas...or since it's a work week...throw that thing in your Smoothie at the Training Table Cafe.

14. #OpryLandTITANS (11) 3-3: They need a QB and I know also a Running Back with some Late Rick James and the Late Teena Marie..."Fire and Desire"! Titans "D" is solid as any as they went toe to toe with the Seahawks!

15. #BOLTSup (19) 3-3: Rivers and Company are doing it on Defense with Smoke and Mirrors but that Offense is coming around because of #17 handling his Sunday Business.

16. #JERRYWorldTexas (20) 3-3: The 'Boys took it to the 'SKins and the Cowboys get WR/PR/KR Dwayne Harris Night for all to see and that's what the 'Boys need for someone to step up other than QB Romo. It's a QB Driven League" but a Team Game as there are 21 that start outside the QB!

17. #STLRams (22) 3-3: I will give credit to the Rams but that Texans Team that smashed needs a new Coach, new QB, and new Varsity Letterman Jackets. Meanwhile the Rams needed that "W" as they are 3-3 and right in the thick of the NFC West.

18. #LINCiliscious (23) 3-3: that Eagles Team might be Bi-Polar but whatever it is QB Nick Foles looked like the next coming of the "Polish Rifle" in Ron Jaworski...Lol...or did he! Eagles Lead Man Chip Kelly has to be elated about being 3-3 and right in the middle of the NFC East Race.

19. #GangGREEN (15) 3-3: Jets going to run the table huh...yeah right as the 0-4 Steelers come into Met Life Green and hit them square in the Kisser as the Jets fall down and couldn't get up. Geno Smith might be good but he is a Rookie QB do not forget that before Jets Nation starts talking Bog Bowl in February 2k14. How about beating the Patriots for starters!

20. #DAWGpound (16) 3-3: Did you see that INT QB Brandon Weeden threw like he was in the backyard playing football with the neighborhood at age 10. The Browns were on the right track and now they have to turn to QB Jason Campbell even though they don't want to to have any chance!

21. #BIRDgang (17) 3-3: They played the 49ERS tough but tough doesn't get you any higher in the Rankings. They were not "Clutch" when "Clutch" was called on...it's as simple as that!

22. #QueenCityPANTHERS (28) 2-3: They went into the Minnesota Vikings House and destroyed them as the Vikes were coming of a Bye Week. QB Cam Newton was back doing what he does and the Panthers "D" played well.

23. #BULLSonParade (18) 2-4: Where do you start and remember they won their 1st two ball games at the end of the game. It's a officially a Train Wreck as nothing is working and Gary Kubiak needs a one-way out of Texas to D.C. to hook back up with Team Shanahan. Losing QB Matt Schaub was tough as you hate to see a player get injured.

24. SKOLnation (21) 2-4: That was a terrible loss to the Panthers but they have a QB moving forward and Josh Freeman has to start in the next Vikings Game.

25. #BLACKAndYellow (29) 1-4: Ok why do they move up five spots to #24 . Well when #24 through #32 loses and the Steelers were the only ones to get a "W". Now here comes the Ravens as the Steelers could start stacking W's or fall back down into the Basement!

26. #AngryBirds404 (26) 1-4: They come off a Bye Week and they have major issues starting with no WR Julio Jones. That "D" has been struggling as that Falcons Front is not good. Does Lead Man Mike Smith keep his Gig?

27. #RAIDERNation (25) 2-4: They had the Chiefs where they wanted them and then blew up. The raiders QB Terrelle Pryor obviously needs more polish but where is that Raiders Run Game?

28. #HTTR (24) 1-4: They had to get that one in Big D and didn't. The 'Skins can't win running that Offense they run with RG3 not being able to run. Remember Shanahan said "Expectations" are really high around here at the beginning of the season. He said that like he is going nowhere and like he is  cutting checks not getting one!

29. #BILLSmafia (27) 2-4: They always seem to be in a Game that goes for a Game-Winning FG in Regulation or Overtime. The bad thing is that they are always the Team losing! For my Favorite Hash Tag that has to be getting old. Bills Mafia needs anew record to play...real talk Bills 53-Man Roster!

30. #FIREtheCannons (30) 0-5: Team Schiano is a Ship Wreck...That  Clock is ticking on someone over in Bucs Land and it's not Revis Island or ex-QB Josh Freeman.

31. #GMen (31) 0-6: Stuck at 31 with nowhere to go...they almost had the Bears but Eli throwing INTs at an alarming rate...Ouch!

32. #JAGS (32) 0-6: Who do they get...Oregon QB Marcus Mariota, Johnny Football of 12th Man, Teddy Bear Bridgewater of U of L Cards, or Jadeveon Clowney of South Carolina.
