Another shakeup week in the Power Rankings. Two top five teams lost, three bottom five teams won and we had a tie. Last rankings before bye weeks start.

Last Week: #1, won at #4 Tampa Bay, 31-25
With all due respect to Buffalo, Detroit & others, it’s Philly then everyone else at this point.
This Week: vs #14 Denver

Last Week: #2, won vs #31 New Orleans, 31-19
Buffalo was very much on upset alert until late in the fourth quarter this week.

Last Week: #5, won vs #21 Cleveland, 34-10
After their season opening clunker, Detroit has looked very much like the juggernaut they were last season.

Last Week: #8, won vs #12 Indianapolis, 27-20
The Rams are a blocked kick, two weeks ago against Philly, from being undefeated and probably ranked first.

Last Week: #10, won vs #7 Baltimore, 37-20
Kansas City looked very much like the Chiefs, finally, against Baltimore.

Last Week: #4, lost vs #1 Philadelphia, 31-25
Tampa came back strong but fell short against the defending champions.

Last Week: #3, lost at #29 NY Giants, 21-18
That was a bad loss, compounded by the loss of OT Joe Alt. I have faith the Chargers will rebound, though.

Last Week: #6, tied at #27 Dallas, 40-40
Green Bay was lucky to escape Dallas with a tie, and what happened to that defense?

Pittsburgh is suddenly in total control in the AFC North.
This Week: BYE

Last Week: #9, lost at Atlanta, 34-27
Washington was never really in that game vs the Falcons. They need Jayden Daniels back.

Last Week: #15, won vs #24 Cincinnati, 28-3
Denver finally resembled the team most of us thought they were, but it was against Cincy, a barely competitive team.

Last Week: #18, won vs #11 San Francisco, 26-21
Jacksonville’s passing game is still a work in progress, but their defense & running game are on point.
This Week: vs #5 Kansas City

Last Week: #11, lost vs #18 Jacksonville, 26-21
San Fran got Brock Purdy back, but they looked disjointed & the injuries continue to mount.

Last Week: #19, won at #25 Las Vegas, 25-24
It was ugly, but those are the types of games Chicago always lost in the Eberflus era.
This Week: BYE

Last Week: #16, lost vs #14 Pittsburgh (in Dublin), 24-21
Minnesota is a Jekyll & Hyde team, it’s hard to predict which one shows up.
This Week: vs #24 Cleveland in London

Last Week: #17, lost vs #13 Seattle, 23-20
Arizona is starting to settle in to what I thought they were. Competitive, but a step below the real contenders.

Cleveland reverted to a doormat on the road against the high powered Lions.
This Week: vs #18 Minnesota in London

Last Week: #20, lost at #28 New England, 42-13
Just when I start believing in Carolina they turn in a 2023 like performance.

Last Week: #29, won vs #3 LA Chargers, 21-18
The Jaxson Dart era starts with a victory, but the Malik Nabers injury puts a damper on the celebration.
This Week: at #31 New Orleans

Last Week: #25, lost vs #19 Chicago, 25-24
Vegas continues to turn the ball over way too much, but they did finally find their running game.
This Week: vs #12 Indianapolis

Last Week: #32, won vs #26 NY Jets, 27-21
Miami has gotten gradually more competitive every week, culminating in their first victory, but they lost Tyreek Hill for the season.
