Fierce Fifteen - Week 12 NFL Power Rankings

Week 11 was an exciting one in the NFL, but when isn't it? There are rarely bad weeks, and that's one of the reasons it's the most popular sport in North America. Now of course every game wasn't close and suspenseful, as there were a few blowouts as well. The best part doing the Power Rankings every week, is when the best teams get upset and the shuffle begins. In saying that, here are how the teams stack up heading into Week 12:

1. New England Patriots (8-2)

2. Arizona Cardinals (9-1)

3. Denver Broncos (7-3)
