The NFL Power Rankings for week 12 are lead by the same top two teams. The Dallas Cowboys and the New England Patriots hang on as the top two teams in the NFL.

The NFL Power Rankings list the Dallas Cowboys as the number one team in the NFL. They continue their winning streak, to hang on for a second straight week at number one. Despite only having one loss, they have teams hot on their trails to knock them off their top position.

In week 11, the NFL set a new record. There were 12 missed extra points for the week. This is the most since the 1970’s merger. One thing about that is it kept the games interesting. It was pretty windy in most games, but that is not an excuse to miss an extra point.

Week 11 also featured, Oakland and Houston playing in the first Monday night game in Mexico City, to a sell out crowd. Kansas City fell to Tampa Bay and Minnesota stopped their losing streak at four. Detroit continued to come from behind in the fourth quarter to win the game. Seattle continued to impress on defense smothering the Philadelphia Eagles.

The Giants pull off another victory in what most considered a trap game. Baltimore kept the Cowboys within arms length but fell in the end. While Arizona continues to disappoint their fans. With their 11th straight loss, the Cleveland Browns knocked themselves out of the playoffs.
