The NFC's No. 2 seed is all the way down here at No. 5 in our MUT 24 Coins playoffs power rankings, which seems low. But take a look at the teams ranked ahead of them and figure out who should drop. Ravens? Patriots? Maybe, but those teams are playoff-tested.

They've been here before and they know what the playoffs are all about. I'm not knocking the 49ers -- they're just more of an unknown right now. Maybe they dominate the Saints this weekend and prove us all wrong but until they show me they can play on this level I'm going to keep them ranked below some of these other teams.

I'm a big fan of what the Giants are doing right now. It all seems so similar to four years ago when the Giants made a playoff run and won the Super Bowl. They're a veteran group. The defensive line is solid and can make life hell for the opposing quarterback. Eli Manning is good enough to win a Super Bowl with. The Giants have a lot of things going for them. The reason they're not ranked higher is that they're a tad inconsistent for my liking. They only went 9-7 during the regular season and, even though they appear to be getting hot cheap MUT 24 Coins, I can't rank them above teams that have proven more over the last 18 weeks.
