NFL Power Rankings: Looking at the League's Most Impressive Teams

Whenever a team impresses, we have to learn to appreciate how good these teams really are and try and understand how they execute and why they're so fluid.

When they take the field, you know history is happening. That being said, here are the NFL's top three teams, all of whom have most definitely impressed this season.

Green Bay Packers (8-0)

The Packers may have a weak pass defense, but with future Hall of Famer Charles Woodson locking it down at cornerback, we have to appreciate his presence on the field. The man is an aging veteran, but is easily one of the best players taking the field each week.

Switch gears to their offense and QB Aaron Rodgers is the NFL's best player, period.

He has the elusiveness of a Ben Roethlisberger, the arm strength of a Jay Cutler, and the accuracy of a Tom Brady. Rodgers is making all of his WRs insanely better and we have to appreciate his ability for what it is.

Green Bay may have its flaws, but who doesn't? The scary part is that they have yet to really play their best football as a complete team. For the sake of going undefeated, let's hope they peak during the final quarter of Super Bowl XLVI.

Baltimore Ravens (6-2)

The Ravens may have flopped on the road twice this season, but Tennessee was playing much better football early on and Jacksonville is not an easy place to win. With their first season sweep of Pittsburgh since 2006 (which was also when the Ravens won their last division title), Baltimore has become impressive.

They have a Top 5 defense against the rush and pass, the offense is beginning to really find a rhythm and the 92-yard game-winning drive over the Steelers in Pittsburgh sums everything up in a nutshell. Baltimore is the best in the AFC.

For a defense of their caliber, combined with an improving offense, the Ravens could finish no worse than 12-4.

San Francisco 49ers (7-1)

Last season San Fran was 2-6 through eight games and finished 6-10. One year later we have a five game turnaround and the scariest part is that the 49ers have only played one divisional game.

We know that the NFC West is supremely weak, but having only played Seattle at home this season, Frisco has road wins over Detroit, Cincinnati, Philadelphia and Washington.

Much like the aforementioned Ravens, the 49ers are only going to get better and will most likely finish no worse than 14-2 or 13-3. Talk about a sick flip of the switch in just one season.

The best part is that San Fran wins by playing old-school football: defense and pounding the rock. In the pass-happy evolution taking over the game of football at all levels, it's relieving to see that they have a hard-nosed head coach that knows the game.
