NFL Power Rankings: Week 12 Standings and Review After Sunday's Games

After Sunday's action, 17 teams—more than half of the league—is within one game of a .500 record.

An optimist could praise the NFL for its parity but, more realistically, we're just watching a lot of incredibly mediocre football this season.

As a result, this week's power rankings are essentially grouped into three parts.

The first group are the seven contenders, all at least two games over .500. The bottom group are the six teams battling it out for the No. 1 pick in the draft, each with at least seven losses already. And everyone else is jumbled up somewhere in the middle.
