DVOA dropped, it's actually a good and interesting article. Patriots are ranked 2nd, Bucs are 1st, Bills are 3rd.
The Patriots and Bills inch closer to Tampa Bay atop our DVOA ratings. Plus, why isn't Cincinnati higher, and have the Seahawks finally broken DVOA for good?

It goes on to discuss other, less relevant teams, good stuff all around, here's the DVOA figures for the top 5. I'm surprised, it's flipped from how I would have figured, they actually have the Bills with the slight edge on Def, and us with the slight edge on Off. ST of course it's not close. Either way, the rise over the last several weeks has been tremendous, week 5 if I recall correctly the Patriots were somewhere between 18th and 22nd by DVOA. As such the Patriots have easily been #1 by DVOA over the last 4-6 weeks, which is likely why the playoff projections and odds are what they are.
