NEW YORK — Two points separate the Patriots and Packers in the AP Pro32 power rankings — for the second week in a row.
New England edged Green Bay for the top spot in the latest rankings, once again finishing two first-place votes and two points ahead in voting by the 12 media members who regularly cover the NFL.
The Patriots received seven first-place votes and 379 points; the Packers had five first-place votes and 377 points. The vote and point totals are the same as last week.
Tom Brady led New England to a 51-17 rout of the Jacksonville Jaguars, while Aaron Rodgers threw five TD passes in Green Bay's 38-28 win over the Kansas City Chiefs.
