Week 10 NFL Power Rankings: Patriots Make Major Leap

Rob Gronkowski

8. Dallas Cowboys (LW: 5)

What to do with the Dallas Cowboys? Obviously, the direction of the team rests largely on quarterback Tony Romo’s shoulders — or injured back, really — but the 6-3 Cowboys have done enough to consider them one of the league’s top teams. Fortunately for Dallas, Romo’s injury may not be much of a factor in the coming weeks, as the Cowboys take on the hapless Jaguars in London in Week 10, then have a bye in Week 11. As always, with the Cowboys, it will be December and January that tell the story.
