NFL Rankings - 3 Nov

The final undefeated team in the league fell last week, but Arizona had such a large lead over everyone else that they were still able to hold on to the top spot in my rankings for another week. The Jets were the biggest surprise of the week, beating last week's hottest team, the Bengals, who had beaten the previous week's hottest team, the Ravens, which is a good sign for New York's opponent this week, the Colts. The only change in the NFC playoff picture was Dallas and Tampa Bay switching spots, but the AFC was all shaken up with the exception of the top-seeded Bills. Here are my full current rankings:

				Actual		Proj
