Fierce Fifteen - Week 17 NFL Power Rankings

Week 16 was quite a wild one in the NFL, and it shuffled the rankings quite a bit. A few playoff teams suffered losses that effected the standings, and other teams gave themselves a continued chance heading into the final week of the season. The Rankings shuffled once again, and Week 16 also set up three big matchups for Division Titles; NFC South, NFC North, and the AFC North. The path in the AFC now officially has to go through the Patriots, with the road in the NFC looks like it'll once again have to go through Seattle. There's still one more week remaining however, which could and should once again shuffle the rankings heading into the Playoffs. Here's how the Fierce Fifteen stack up heading into Week 17:

1. New England Patriots (12-3)

2. Seattle Seahawks (11-4)

3. Denver Broncos (11-4)

4. Green Bay Packers (11-4)

5. Dallas Bowboys (11-4)
