This week was a tough one to explain in the NFL. Three top teams suffered convincing losses to weaker opponents: Indy, Seattle and New England. DCS thinks these were more momentary lapses than trends. The Ravens move up 6 spots and the Bengals 5. Rex recovers, but the Bears defense falters and the Saints and Chargers continue to look more impressive each week. This week also has the no NFC teams in the top 6. The AFC championship will really be the Super Bowl this year.
