Weekly Note: These rankings are based on an evaluation of teams as they currently stand, in consideration of the previous week of games and the upcoming week. They are not necessarily a projection of who will win the next SuperBowl, but instead reflect who I believe would win if the teams played each other today, on a neutral field.
