2010 NFL Power Rankings: Playoffs
Week 20 Fantasy Performers, Defenses, League Leaders

You have to be pretty retarded to think the Texans have the best defense in the league, especially without Mario.

How can you take these power rankings seriously when the top seeded AFC team is not in the top 10?!?!

Regardless of whether Schaub is injured or not, they have the leagues best defence, 2 RBs in the top 10 for rushing yards, arguably the leagues most complete WR coming back from injury and one of the best O-lines in the league.

All Leinart has to do is control the remaining games and not try and win them himself, nothing else has changed.

Am I missing something?

Hey mschuhe3,

How is Walter showing the 49ers no love? He has them as the second best team in the NFC, which is legitimate because no one can honestly put them above the Packers who have been unstoppable. The assumption that the top two AFC teams are better than the 49ers is legitimate as well, as the Patriots and Steelers have players with more postseason experience.

In summary, quit whining and trying to prove how awesome you are because your team is having a great year, but no one respects you. If anyone should whine it's me, as my Dolphins start out 0-7, only to start meaninglessly winning a few games to screw themselves out of landing Andrew Luck and in all likelihood dooming themselves to at least a few more seasons of mediocrity. DO you hear me whining? Maybe a little

The Giants have a one game lead in their division but "didn't really need to beat the 49ers."

Sounds like some Emmit Smith or Matt Milen logic if you ask me

Walterfootball.com: Yet another media outlet showing the 49ers no love

Houston at 7-3 still deserves to be in the Top 10. They are the #1 seed in the AFC is the season ended today.

Losing Schaub is a blow, but they have a 2 stellar RB's, not to mention
Andre Johnson coming back, and a stellar D.

I hate the Eagles and I'm a big Tim Tebow fan but their spots should be switched here. There's no way Philly's worse than Minnesota, Tampa, Seattle, Buffalo, Denver, or Tennessee. Tebow can run an offense and helps the running game a ton but teams will figure him out unless he can start completing basic passes.

this site should be shut down , because apparently you have no football knowledge, and obviously anyone can run a site if they follow the proper protocol (your a perfect example)

I love the lions but matt and calvin should've been in the scrubs

Will the Schaub injury open the AFC South for the titans. Or can Leinart pick up the slack.

Schaub being out will hurt the Texans, but not THAT much. Bucs fans can attest that their game has much more to do with Barian Fostate and their smothering D than whoever is taking snaps. I'd say give them a chance with Leinart starting before dropping them back to the middle of the pack- they do have the best record in the AFC after all.

"By doing this, Smith sent a clear message to his defense that he didn't trust them."

wouldn't it also send the message he did trust his offense?

What the hell with the niners?!?!!The Niners have played a much tougher schedule than the steelers and patriots. Don't give me that bs that NY had nothing to play for - their division is much more competitive and every loss counts for something. The 49ers have nothing to play for as they already have a 5 game lead. And don't give me any crap that NY had to fly across country when the 49ers have won 4 games in the eastern time zone. The scores may not show it, but they have dominated a lot of their games. You must have a man crush for all teams on the east coast.

I'd take the Bears over the Ravens and the Giants, maybe even the Pats.

@ Ed Hardy:
He did suck, but thanks to garbage time stats Stafford still managed 329yds/1TD to go along with his 4 picks. So he ended up with double-digit fantasy points which does not qualify for scrubdom.
