LVSC Week 12 NFL Rankings

Every week Las Vegas Sports Consultants, the world's largest oddsmaking company, releases their top polls/rankings for the major sports. They describe their polls as ones in which "teams are ranked purely by the numbers, without media, regional, league, conference or any other biases – just the facts as determined by LVSC’s team of experts." Because they use the same information that is used to make the betting lines, it is perhaps the most complete and accurate poll. We will post the updated college football poll here every Tuesday and the updated NFL rankings on Wednesdays.



No big changes here. The top 5 stays the same while San Diego moves into the 6 hole. I would not be surprised to see them move ahead of Pittsburgh soon as well. The Chargers have definitely found their identity and, as a result, started playing great football. Philip Rivers is definitely one of the better leaders in the game. His confidence, borderline cockiness, seems to have rubbed off on his teammates. The big matchup this week will see the Saints and Patriots battle it out for the top spot on Monday Night.
