The NFL Power Rankings for Week 15 are here and the New York Giants are once again showing they have what it takes to make a run at the crown, climbing higher in the Top 10 after an impressive win over the New Orleans Saints. The New York Jets also made their way north, but have a long way to go before they make any real noise.
Check out the latest rankings and let us know what you think!

- Captain Kirk isn't RG3, but he's not a bad Plan B!
Next up: at No. 19 Browns

Next up: vs. No. 11 Seahawks
26. Philadelphia Eagles (LW: 29, 4-9)

- History! For the third straight week, the Lions blew a 10-point lead, an NFL record.
Next up: at No. 28 Cardinals
28. Arizona Cardinals (LW: 25, 4-9)
