The latest ESPN.com NFL Power Rankings are in, and the Colts remain entrenched at No. 2 behind the NFL’s other undefeated team, New Orleans.

NFC West maven Mike Sando details some of that in his always informative breakdown of the voting.

Here’s how the AFC South ranks:


The AFC South remains No. 1 on average, with a 13.5 to a second place 14.1 for the NFC East.

Baltimore is the one team I vary a good bit from the rest of the panel on. The Ravens are 16th, I have them 18th, three spots lower than anyone else. The big argument can be made about the struggling Steelers, who I have higher and who recently lost to the Ravens. But on overall body of work and looking at a neutral site game played today, I’d lean Pittsburgh with its back against the wall over the Ravens, who, incidentally, I had picked to win the division.
