And
then there was one. The Indianapolis Colts handily defeated
the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, and stand as the only undefeated
team in the league heading into Week 6 of the season.
The three other teams that went into
Week 5 with perfect records all lost - the Washington Redskins,
Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Cincinnati Bengals. That means the
Colts stay atop the list this week, and they can improve their
mark to 6-0 (and ensure they keep the No. 1 ranking) by defeating
the St. Louis Rams at the RCA Dome on the next edition of
Monday Night Football.
The Redskins, Bucs, and Bengals all slip
this week, but not as much as they might have if the teams
around them in the rankings were winning. The Philadelphia
Eagles suffered a bad loss to the Dallas Cowboys, the Atlanta
Falcons played without Michael Vick and fell to the New England
Patriots, and the San Diego Chargers were dropped by the Pittsburgh
Steelers on Monday Night Football. In fact, with most teams
at or within a game of the .500 mark about two-thirds of the
Power Rankings has become a toss-up; basically, outside of
a few standouts we still don't really know who is going to
be good this season.
Our Top 5 NFL Teams for NFL Gambling
in Week 6
Indianapolis Colts 5-0-0
Might as well have had a bye last week, as the 49ers didn't
put up much of a fight in their contest.
Pittsburgh Steelers 3-1-0
Picked up a win over San Diego on Monday, but Ben Roethlisberger
ended the game with his knee wrapped in ice.
Denver Broncos 4-1-0
Jake Plummer went 10-of-25 for only 92 yards passing versus
the Redskins, but they held on for the victory.
New England Patriots 3-2-0
Tom Brady was good in their win against the Falcons, but the
defense didn't look so hot versus a second-string QB.
Cincinnati Bengals 4-1-0
Failed in their effort to bump their record to 5-0; will be
looking to rebound next week with a game in Tennessee.
