NFL Rankings - 15 Oct

The San Francisco 49ers pulled off another impressive win this weekend, completely stalling the Rams' offense on the road and keeping themselves in the top spot in my rankings, ahead of the other undefeated team, New England, who still has the worst strength of schedule in the league. The only new team in the top 10 is New Orleans, who has managed to keep winning games even without Drew Brees, who may miss only a couple more games. Here are my full current rankings and playoff picks:
