| Rnk | LW* | Team | Record | Comments |
| 1. | 1. | Green Bay Packers | 13-0 | Will Jennings suffering a knee injury cause them to re-evaluate going all out for an undefeated season? |
| 2. | 2. | New Orleans Saints | 10-3 | Breesus joined Unitas as only the second quarterback to throw a touchdown pass in 40 straight games. |
| 3. | 3. | Baltimore Ravens | 10-3 | A perfect 4-0 in the games Lewis has missed due to injury. |
| 4. | 5. | Pittsburgh Steelers | 10-3 | Injuries to stars mounting with Roethlisberger, Pouncey, Polamalu and Woodley all questionable for Monday night. Harrison suspension doesn't help. |
| 5. | 6. | New England Patriots | 10-3 | O'Brien and Brady kissed and made up in victory after a shouting match precipitated by Brady throwing an especially egregious interception in the end zone. The defensive inadequacies are putting a lot of pressure on the offense and it is beginning to show. |
| 6. | 7. | Houston Texans | 10-3 | Clinched their first ever playoff appearance. |
| 7. | 4. | San Francisco 49ers | 10-3 | Celebrated winning the division by blowing a 12 point second half lead to the Skelton led Cards. Hard to envision them hanging with the Packers or Saints for 60 minutes in the playoffs. |
| 8. | 8. | Denver Broncos | 8-5 | Tebow! Prater! Barber! |
| 9. | 9. | New York Jets | 8-5 | Dirty Sanchez became the first QB in franchise history to throw for 2 and run for 2 TDs in the same game. |
| 10. | 11. | Atlanta Falcons | 8-5 | Kept pace for the wild card by scoring 24 unanswered second half points in Carolina. |
| 11. | 15. | Detriot Lions | 8-5 | Got lucky a clear facemask was not called on Avril against Webb on the final play of the game from the 1 yard line. |
| 12. | 17. | New York Giants | 7-6 | Eli! Manning tied Unitas and his brother for the most fourth quarter TD passes in a season. |
| 13. | 10. | Tennessee Titans | 7-6 | Comeback engineered by Locker after Hasselbeck was lost to injury fell short with the final 2 drives ending deep in Saints territory on a failed fourth down conversion and a sack of Locker as time expired. |
| 14. | 12. | Dallas Cowboys | 7-6 | Collapsed again in spectacular fashion giving up 15 unanswered points and having a field goal blocked after going up by 12 with under 6 minutes remaining. |
| 15. | 13. | Oakland Raiders | 7-6 | Should have forfeited instead of wasting money travelling to Green Bay. Palmer trade looking worse and worse. |
| 16. | 14. | Cincinnati Bengals | 7-6 | Allowed the Yates led Texans to drive 80 yards in the final 2 minutes to give up the lead they held most of the game. |
| 17. | 19. | Arizona Cardinals | 6-7 | On a roll winning 5 of their last 6. |
| 18. | 20. | San Diego Chargers | 6-7 | Rivers has turned things around completing 76% of his passes with 6 TDs and no interceptions in the last 2 weeks. Alas their playoff chances are being buried by Tebow! |
| 19. | 16. | Chicago Bears | 7-6 | Done in by an incredibly bad decision by Barber going out bounds when they were running out the clock in regulation and then by his fumble in OT. Plus don't forget Tebow! |
| 20. | 24. | Seattle Seahawks | 6-7 | Lynch tied Alexander for the franchise record for consecutive games with a TD at 9. |
| 21. | 25. | Philadelphia Eagles | 5-8 | A 24 point second quarter allowed the defense to pin their ears back and rush the passer. They ended up with 9 sacks. |
| 22. | 18. | Miami Dolphins | 4-9 | Ross must have had Del Rio and Haley in the office pool for first head coaches fired. Once Haley got the boot Monday morning the plug was mercifully pulled on Sparano in the afternoon. |
| 23. | 21. | Buffalo Bills | 5-8 | Losers of 6 straight. |
| 24. | 22. | Kansas City Chiefs | 5-8 | Haley becomes the second head coaching casualty of the season. Chiefs fans rejoice. There are already rumors that Pioli wants replace him with McDaniels. Chiefs fans hang their heads in despair. |
| 25. | 23. | Carolina Panthers | 4-9 | Remain winless when Newton turns the ball over. |
| 26. | 29. | Jacksonville Jaguars | 4-9 | I played against Jones-Drew in the first round of my fantasy playoffs. I lost. |
| 27. | 27. | Cleveland Browns | 4-9 | Have no playmakers on offense. |
| 28. | 28. | Washington Redskins | 4-9 | Banks threw the longest TD pass by a WR since '05. He is currently the frontrunner for the QB job in '12. |
| 29. | 26. | Tampa Bay Buccaneers | 4-9 | Doesn't get much worse than giving up 41 unanswered points to a team that had averaged scoring just over 12 points per game previously. Could Morris make it a trifecta for head coaches in Florida getting the axe? |
| 30. | 30. | Minnesota Vikings | 2-11 | Allen needs 5.5 sacks to break Strahan's single season record. |
| 31. | 31. | St. Louis Rams | 2-11 | Poster boys for MNF flex scheduling, logistics be damned. |
| 32. | 32. | Indianapolis Colts | 0-13 | Suck for Luck in the final stages. Does it mean Peyton will be playing elsewhere next season? |
