NFL Power Rankings: Arizona Cardinals Best In NFL
By Scott Allen
The Arizona Cardinals are 7-1 and have the best record in the NFL at the halfway point of the season for the first time since 1974
We’ve reached the halfway point of the season and some of the contenders and pretenders are already starting to sort themselves out. The Arizona Cardinals are 7-1 with the best record in the NFL but many contend they are not the best team in the NFL.
As far as our rankings go, the Cardinals have done enough for at least this week to earn the top spot in our NFL Power Rankings. There were six teams on byes this week. These NFL Power Rankings reflect how they stand today in raisingzona.com’s eyes.
The NFL Power Rankings now have their third number one team in the past three weeks. Things are changing that quick this year. The question is how long does this week’s number one team keep the spot? Next week’s number one team in the NFL Power Rankings could be one of several teams if the Cards falter.
