Ballot and comments from AP Pro 32 panel voter Rich Gannon of CBS Sports/SiriusXM NFL Radio: Week 7 RICH GANNON (CBS Sports/SiriusXM NFL Radio) 1. Atlanta Falcons - 6-0, need I say more. 2. Baltimore Ravens - Losing Ray Lewis and Ladarius Webb won't make things any easier. 3. New York Giants - Convincing win on the road against a playoff team. 4. San Francisco 49ers - Very uncharacteristic performance from Alex Smith with three interceptions. Still a playoff team. 5. Chicago Bears - Looking more and more like a playoff team with outstanding defensive performances. 6. Green Bay Packers - I laugh at people who question and criticize reigning NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers ... Really? 7. Houston Texans - Saw how much not having Brian Cushing hurt that defense. 8. New England Patriots - Still one of the better teams in the AFC despite loss in Seattle. 9. Denver Broncos - Always have a chance with Peyton Manning! 10. Seattle Seahawks - Defense and young QB starting to get league wide attention. 11. Pittsburgh Steelers - Need to get healthy in a hurry or they may not catch Baltimore. 12. Detroit Lions - Win in Philly may have salvaged what was looking like a hopeless situation. 13. New York Jets - Colts are one thing, much stiffer challenge this weekend in New England. 14. Miami Dolphins - Joe Philbin doing a terrific job with that team and young QB. 15. Philadelphia Eagles - Things beginning to unravel for Andy Reid, curious to see if they can keep it together and make it to the finish line. 16. Washington Redskins - They have a chance every week now with RGIII. Amazing! 17. Minnesota Vikings - Not good enough to survive all the mistakes and turnovers in week six, time to right the ship. 18. Cincinnati Bengals - Dalton struggling right now but that won't last long ... too good of a player. 19. San Diego Chargers - Second half collapse was brutal as was the performance of Philip Rivers. 20. Tennessee Titans - They're better right now with Hasselbeck at QB. 21. New Orleans Saints - They can win with their offense, but not so sure about their defense right now. 22. Buffalo Bills - They are 8-21 when Ryan Fitzpatrick throws an interception. Need I say more? 23. Arizona Cardinals - Too much of an imbalance right now with a strong defense and a struggling offense. 24. Dallas Cowboys - Problems at every level of the organization. 25. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Much needed win at home in front of a handful of fans. 26. St. Louis Rams - Up and down from week to week as expected with a new staff. 27. Indianapolis Colts - Looked flat after emotional win over Green Bay. Need to fix the run defense in a hurry. 28. Carolina Panthers - Focus during the bye week had to be on getting Cam Newton back on track. 29. Cleveland Browns - Change is coming with new owner Jimmy Haslam. 30. Oakland Raiders - Before you can win consistently, you need to learn how to finish in the 4th quarter. 31. Kansas City Chiefs - Really surprised to see this team struggle so badly ... expected better out of this group. 32. Jacksonville Jaguars - They will start to win again when they begin to get production in the passing game. --- Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL |
