1. N.Y. Jets 5-1 (3)...Has to be. Only 5-1 team. The win in Denver was the classic case of a good team finding a way to win.
2. Pittsburgh 4-1 (4)...Encouraging start but a rough stretch ahead, including three straight road games.
3. New England 4-1 (5)
4. Baltimore 4-2 (2)
5. Indianapolis 4-2 (6)...Might be a little high because they're making a lot of mistakes in other areas -- defense, special teams -- but we've seen Manning carry them to the playoffs before.
6. Tennessee 4-2 (8)...Good team that might have a tough time making the playoffs due to the depth of teams in the AFC.
