Here are your Week 5 power rankings for the 2015 NFL season!

*Each team’s win-loss record is in the first parenthesis and last week’s ranking in parentheses.

  1.  New England Patriots (3-0) (1) – Nexxxxxxt!
  1.  Green Bay Packers (4-0) (2) – Hey they play defense too.
  1.  Denver Broncos (4-0) (3) – Stop thinking about this team from the offensive perspective.  It’s the defense that’s special.
  1.  Seattle Seahawks (2-2) (4) – Another narrow victory.
  1.  Cincinnati Bengals (4-0) (T-7) – Can that home field advantage hold against mighty Seattle?
  1.  Atlanta Falcons (4-0) (T-7) – Take a look at their schedule.  They might not lose this season.
  1.  Arizona Cardinals (3-1) (5) – Just a temporary setback.
  1.  Carolina Panthers (4-0) (11) – Can’t do better than 4-0 at the bye.
  1.  Pittsburgh Steelers (2-2) (6) – The one that got away.
  1.  New York Giants (2-2) (14) – Suddenly in the driver’s seat.
  1.  Buffalo Bills (2-2) (10) – Where’s the consistency?
  1.  New York Jets (3-1) (T-18) – Yeah, the Jets.  I know.
  1.  Indianapolis Colts (2-2) (12) – The sorriest looking 2-0 you can be.
  1.  Minnesota Vikings (2-2) (13) – They come to play.

T-15.  Dallas Cowboys (2-2) (9) – It gets worse before it gets better.

T-15.  St. Louis Rams (2-2) (16) – So, they only win against divisional opponents who are better than them?

T-17.  Baltimore Ravens (1-3) (15) – Ought to be 0-4.  Let’s see if they can make something out of this reprieve.

T-17.  San Diego Chargers (2-2) (T-20) – Not too late to get back in it.

  1.  Philadelphia Eagles (1-3) (17) – Teetering on the edge.
  1.  Kansas City Chiefs (1-3) (T-20) – This team needs line help and a new QB or they’re not going to see any improvement.

T-21.  Oakland Raiders (2-2) (T-20) – Can they show the same fight against a tough Denver defense?

T-21.  Washington RacialSlurs (2-2) (28) – I still don’t know if this team is better than I think or is just catching teams at the right time.

  1.  New Orleans Saints (1-3) (26) – Sure is good to see Drew Brees back in form.
  1.  Miami Dolphins (1-3) (T-18) – Firing Joe Philbin won’t help.
  1.  Tennessee Titans (1-2) (25) – I wonder if they put that bye week to good use.
  1.  Detroit Lions (0-4) (24) – They may be the only 0-4 team, but they’re far from the worst team.
  1.  Jacksonville Jaguars (1-3) (27) – Still have to learn how to win the close ones.
  1.  Houston Texans (1-3) (23) – This team looks God-awful, and they were supposed to be more or less average.
  1.  Cleveland Browns (1-3) (29) – Not nearly as bad as they looked in that first week.
  1.  Chicago Bears (1-3) (32) – I’m not convinced they don’t deserve to stay at the bottom but they did win, so. . .
  1.  Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1-3) (30) – Remember, it’s not how many wins they get, it’s whether you see Winston improving week to week (so far, I mostly do).
  1.  San Francisco 49ers (1-3) (31) – Think I’m wrong?  They’re -62 is the worst point differential in the NFL.  I’m not wrong.
