I never understood power rankings to be honest. Personally, I think they should be a representation of how a team is performing in the last week or two (say 5 games or so). Are they hot or cold?
Therefore, any team could be top or bottom really - if buffalo breaks out and wins 5 in a row (I know, but just for an example) they should be shuffled way up the power rankings becuase right now they are hot and therefore more dangerous.
Maybe I'm off base on what power rankings are really for, but I think that is what they should be. Simply ranking teams based on the standings over the whole year is somewhat useless in my eyes (which is usually how power rankings end up, baring a few differences).
