I missed a couple of weeks on the Power Rankings while I was on vacation. Due the rising demand for their return, they are back. The Saints and the Colts still sit atop the pack and the Vikings are right there with them. A Packers win vs. Dallas has them just about where they left off last time I checked in. The Bears on the other hand have tumbled further. As always, I appreciate your thoughts.

Be sure to check out the Bloguin Power Rankings as well, where the blogs of the network unite in our arrogance to try and prove that we know more about football than you.
