NFL Power Rankings Week 11: Losers Sure To Bounce Back and Climb Up

Oh, how the mighty have fallen. All of these teams looked so good at various points this year, but have fallen on some hard times.

Week 10 was a hard time for all of these teams. Week 11 will be quite a bit better. They won't keep falling. They may resume that fall at some point, but they will get a one-week break.

New York Jets

How quickly we forget that the Jets were on a three-game winning streak before losing to the Patriots on Sunday night. Not only that, but most of that game was actually rather competitive, although New England was the better team.

I still like their defense. It's not as good as it has been, but it's still a unit that can dominate a game. Against the Broncos, I really like them to take the game over and win convincingly. 

I do like Tim Tebow, but he's not a great passer and with a limited running attack, Tebow won't be hard to key on.

Buffalo Bills

All of a sudden, the Miami Dolphins have won two games in a row. Who would have predicted that? Give yourself a pat on the back if you did. 

Still, even though the Bills have hit a rough patch, I look for them to bounce back this week and get a win over the Dolphins. 

I'm not sure that the Bills will ever get back to the magic that they had early in the season, but they won't need to to climb this week.

Detroit Lions

The Panthers vs. Lions. What can we expect? Well, let's start with a lot of points. When this one is over, the Lions will have more.

They have certainly hit a rough patch, dropping three of the last four games. I don't know how well the rest of the season sets up for the Lions, but their drop through the rankings will take a week-long break. 

Circle their Thanksgiving home game against the Packers. It will be a good one.
