NFL Power Rankings, Week 5: Colts, Lions, Titans Trending Upwards

A divisional rival of the Packers is on its way up the charts, but after this week's events we give Green Bay back the top spot in the division.

Another rather strange week in the NFL has everyone shuffling the deck on their power rankings. Well, maybe not everyone - somehow, SBNation's Ryan Van Bibber moved the Bears down only one spot from 4th to 5th after Jay Cutler reverted to his old self and accounted for four turnovers on Sunday. They also left the Green Bay Packers at 13th during the bye, despite several teams above them losing in rather dismal fashion. Let's just say that I don't believe that a team on a bye week must stay at the same spot they were in the week before.

Here are a smattering of power rankings from around the NFL media before we get to ours. We'll add a few more in as they are published throughout the day.

SBNation: Packers 13th (no change from last week)
Yahoo! Sports: 6th (up from 10th)
Fanspeak: Packers 13th (no change)
