Week 10 NFL Power Rankings

We have a new team in the top five.

Week 10 NFL Power Rankings

1. The Dallas Cowboys

The Cowboys took the week off this week by playing the Cleveland Browns and winning 35-10. The upcoming week looks to be just a little tougher with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Prescott and Elliott will have to come up big to compensate for their team's suspect secondary pitted against the Steelers offense. This game looks to be the highest scoring of the year and definitely something you want to watch.

Last Week: Win, The Cleveland Browns (35-10)

This Week: The Pittsburgh Steelers, 4:25 p.m. (FOX)

2. The New England Patriots

Coming off of a bye week, the Patriots look to face their toughest test of the season. Heading into a Sunday night matchup with the Seahawks, the Patriots defense that has looked shaky at best will face its best quarterback opposition of the season in Russell Wilson. While this may be a cause for concern for some, I actually think the Pats defense will hold up thanks to preparation genius of Coach Belichick. Give him an extra week to do anything and he'll get it done.

Last Week: Bye

This WeeK: The Seattle Seahawks, 8:30 p.m. (NBC)

3. The Seattle Seahawks

Aside from a massive referee blunder, Monday night's Seahawks-Bills matchup may have been the best Monday Night Football matchup of the year so far. While it didn't make up for their performance on Sunday Night Football a few weeks ago, the Seahawks looked strong. Behind a Russell Wilson who threw for his first two touchdown passes in three weeks, the Seahawks looked to be back on track after a few uninspired performances. This week, they'll head up to New England for what could be a Super Bowl preview. One more thing, give Marshawn the ball. I don't care if he's retired. Give him the ball Pete.

Last Week: Win, The Buffalo Bills, (31-25)

This Week: The New England Patriots, 8:30 p.m. (NBC)

4. The Atlanta Falcons

Someone's got to win the NFC South and it looks like the Atlanta Falcons will be that team. With a fifteen point win and forty point performance from Matt Ryan and company, the Falcons will look to take their show on the road for a battle of the birds against the Philadelphia Eagles. I personally don't think that they'll be able to win this one, but who knows?

Last Week: Win, The Tampa Bay Buccaneers (43-28)

This Week: The Philadelphia Eagles, 1:00 p.m. (FOX)

5. The Oakland Raiders

The newest addition to The Odyssey Black Voices NFL Power Rankings is the silver and black. Coming off of an impressive performance against the defending Super Bowl Champion, Denver Broncos, the Raiders look to be the leaders in the division and on their way to their first playoff berth in over a decade. Let's see if they can hold on.

Last week: Win, The Denver Broncos (30-20)

This Week: Bye

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
