The DKY NFL Power Rankings 2012 (Week 13)

1. The list of teams in need of major coaching/player changes continues to grow; Eagles, Cowboys, Chiefs, Jaguars, Panthers, Jets, Bills, Chargers.

2. The Eagles are in complete chaos now. Firing almost everyone in sight, from coordinators to All Pro defensive ends.

3. The race for the #1 pick in the 2013 NFL Draft is becoming quite competitive these days. The Chiefs (1-10) have the inside track right now, but the Jaguars (2-9) are right behind them and the Panthers, Browns, and Raiders (all 3-8) are just waiting in the wings.

4. The Patriots have scored a whopping 80 points more than the second highest scoring team, the Texans, 407-327.

5. The Kansas City Chiefs have scored a putrid 161 points through 11 games. That’s only 14.6 ppg.

6. The Oakland Raiders have given up 356 points (32.3 ppg) through 11 games. Holy shit.

7. The most shocking game to me was the Giants complete and utter obliteration of the Packers, 38-10. The Giants even let off the gas after the half only scoring on a late 3rd quarter TD from Manning to Nicks.

8. I have absolutely no problem with Chiefs RB Jamaal Charles getting Broncos QB Peyton Manning’s autograph after the game. It’s as good a time as any.

9. My record picking NFL games straight up this season is 115-60-1. My picks for Week 13 are; Falcons, Bills, Bears, Lions, Packers, Texans, Panthers, 49ers, Patriots, Cardinals, Broncos, Browns, Bengals, Ravens, Cowboys, Giants.

10. Against the spread I am, 86-90.
