NFL Rankings - 22 Oct

The San Francisco 49ers continued their undefeated start this week, struggling to a 9-0 win over Washington. Even with the win, their rating was pulled back toward the pack, but they were still able to hold onto first place over the Patriots, who still have only played one team with a winning record the Bills. New Orleans continues to climb, even without Drew Brees, and they are now projected to earn a first-round bye. Here are my full current rankings and playoff picks:
