NFL Rankings - 13 Nov

The San Francisco 49ers fell from the ranks of the unbeaten this weekend, pulling them back to even with New England for the league's best record, but they remain in the top spot in my rankings because they have played a slightly tougher schedule than the defending champs, who are back to having the easiest schedule so far. By beating the Niners, Seattle pushed themselves ahead of the Rams into the final playoff spot in the NFC, where the bar is a bit higher for wild card teams than in the AFC. Here are my full current rankings and playoff picks:
