Packers top first-ever AP Pro32 rankings

Posted:

NEW YORK (WKOW) -- A new pro football version of the AP Top 25 college football and basketball polls is out, and the Green Bay Packers top the list.

Once the NFL season starts, the AP Pro32 rankings will be updated weekly.

The Packers are followed by New England and the New York Giants. Indianapolis is projected as the worst team in the NFL heading into the upcoming season.

Green Bay, coming off a 15-1 record but without a championship, received 374 points from a panel of 12 sports writers and broadcasters who regularly cover the league. The Packers got five first-place votes, as did the Giants, who beat Green Bay on their way to a Super Bowl win over the Patriots last season.

The Packers kick of preseason play on August 9 in San Diego. For more information on Green Bay's preseason schedule, click here.
