PFT Power Rankings: Texans, Pats, Falcons 1-2-3

SchaubGetty Images

1. Texans:? Nine straight years with no playoffs followed by two straight years with playoffs.? For Texans fans, it was worth the wait.

2. Patriots:? Another year, another late-season winning streak.

3. Falcons:? Yes, they still have only one loss.? But there?s still something that seems to be missing.

4. Broncos:? The only problem with a Colts-Broncos wild-card playoff game is that one of them would have to lose.

5. Packers:? When the injured guys return, this team will be even more dangerous.? Unless other guys get hurt along the way.

6. 49ers:? It?s a good thing Jim Harbaugh has two good quarterbacks.? He may be needing the other one soon.

7. Seahawks:? With three straight wins at Chicago, the Seahawks need to start raising the 12th man flag before games at Soldier Field.

8. Ravens:? It?s a good thing they play well on the road in the postseason.? They eventually may have to.? Every week.

9. Colts:? The good news?? Andrew Luck has the resilience of Tim Tebow.? The better news?? Luck can throw the ball, too.

10. Bengals:? Their playoffs start in Week 16 against the Steelers.

11. Bears:? It?s not a five-game losing streak.? Still, 1-3 and sliding isn?t the way to get back to the postseason.

12. Steelers:? So does Charlie Batch have the hot hand now in Pittsburgh?

13. Giants:? Someone apparently forgot to tell the Giants that November has ended.

14. Redskins:? If God were really on the Redskins side, wouldn?t He have protected them from Albert Haynesworth?

15. Rams:? That tie could still make things interesting down the stretch if the Rams keep winning and enough of the other contenders keep losing.

16. Saints:? Yet again, the team hosting the Super Bowl won?t be playing in it.

17. Buccaneers:? At least the future is brighter than it used to be.

18. Cowboys:? Barely beating the Eagles J.V. team isn?t really something to brag about.

19. Vikings:? Why do they even try to do anything other than give the ball to Adrian Peterson?

20. Dolphins:? At least they?re still the only team in the last decade not named the Patriots that has won the division.

21. Bills:? Why do they do even try to do anything other than give the ball to C.J. Spiller?

22. Browns:? They?re gonna blow their chance at another top-five pick.

23. Titans:? The team that currently is in Houston gave the owner that used to be in Houston a double-barreled middle finger this season.

24. Lions:? Why do they even try to do anything other than give the ball to Calvin Johnson?? Oh, wait.? They don?t.

25. Jets:? Why do they even try?

26. Panthers:? Here?s hoping the new G.M. gives Ron Rivera a fair chance to show he can get it done.

27. Cardinals:? The passes made by Ryan Lindley are about as effective as the passes Audra Lindley used to make at Norman Fell.

28. Chargers:? Speaking of Norman Fell, the guy who likes like him will soon be free to manage an apartment building in L.A.

29. Eagles:? At some point, Andy Reid?s final year in Philly will make it impossible for another owner to sell him to a fan base as a viable coaching option.

30. Chiefs:? Officially, we?re neutral.? Unofficially, we?re Chiefs fans until further notice.

31. Jaguars:? It?s time to slay the fatted calf in Jacksonville.

32. Raiders:? Not-so-slowly but surely, Mark Davis is proving Mike Silver to be right.
