NFL power rankings, Week 14: Steelers rise, Falcons fall

48. Tampa Bay is another Cinderella team this season, and is remarkably sitting atop the NFC South along with Atlanta. A four-game winning streak became reality after a second-half comeback off the arm of Jameis Winston, who threw for 280 yards and a touchdown. Having Doug Martin back and healthy makes a big difference as well, even if he is not dominating during every game. Limiting the turnovers and major penalties was a key for Tampa Bay Sunday, and that style of play needs to become consistent. <p>Next Week: The Saints arrive in Tampa Bay attempting to remain in the playoff hunt themselves. New Orleans is two games behind Atlanta and Tampa Bay, and needs this first game of the seasons series to gain leverage. Tampa Bay hasn’t had the best home record this season at 2-4, but has recently turned a page on their season.</p> <p>Playoff hopes: Tampa Bay still has their two games against the Saints to be played, a major piece of the tiebreaker puzzle. Should the Falcons and Buccaneers finish tied for first place in the NFC South, division record would be a critical tie breaker. Having played more games, the Falcons have one more division win. Tampa Bay needs to sweep New Orleans to stay relevant in the division race.</p>. 7-5. Previous: . Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 10. team
