NFL Power Rankings 2014: Week 12

The Phinsider Power Rankings heading into Week 12.

Chuck Cook-USA TODAY Sports

The Phinsider Power Rankings return today. Where last week's rankings saw the top and the bottom teams stay fairly stable, this week we see a little more movement. Though the Arizona Cardinals and New England Patriots do remain the top two teams.

The Green Bay Packers jump up four positions to claim the third position, using a 53-20 beat down of the Philadelphia Eagles as the impetus for the move. That four position jump was not the largest move of the week, however, with the Cincinnati Bengals jumping five spots from 18th to 13th.

The Buffalo Bills mirrored that jump with a five position fall, swapping positions with Cincinnati, dropping from 13th to 18th.

The full rankings for the week, based on an average of our Phinsider contributor individual rankings, are:
