The Kansas City Chiefs -- the only undefeated team left in the NFL -- have finally made it to the top of the AP's NFL poll. The top four teams this week are all from the AFC West and the NFC West, which is not something that happens very often:
1. Kansas City Chiefs: 9-0
2. Seattle Seahawks: 8-1
3. Denver Broncos: 7-1
T4. San Francisco 49ers: 6-2
T4. Indianapolis Colts: 6-2
6. New England Patriots: 7-2
7. New Orleans Saints: 6-2
8. Cincinnati Bengals: 6-3
9. Detroit Lions: 5-3
10. Carolina Panthers: 5-3
The Dolphins (4-4) are 18th; the Redskins (who were 3-5 win the poll was taken) are 21st, but their disastrous loss to the Vikings means that they will fall next week.
The Chiefs, Browns, Patriots, and Jets are off this week, so Kansas City gets to avoid Denver for another week. The best game of the week is in San Francisco, where the 49ers are hosting the Carolina Panthers. This is the only game featuring top-10 teams this week.
Urgh.
