What differentiates these rankings from all of the others is that they’re THE solely actually correct ones in your complete universe. We use a proprietary system that closely accounts for all-important vibes. Let’s check out how all 32 groups stack up. (Click here for last week’s version.)
1 – Detroit Lions (Final Week: 2) – The Lions are probably the most dominant staff within the NFL this season. They’re scoring 33.6 factors per sport and permitting simply 17.7 factors per sport. Even of their sole loss, they nonetheless outgained their opponent by 247 yards. Juggernaut.
2 – Buffalo Bills (LW: 3) – Josh Allen is now 4-1 in opposition to Patrick Mahomes within the common season. In consequence, the Payments have an actual likelihood to win the No. 1 seed within the AFC playoff picture. After all, Buffalo has but to show they’ll get by Kansas Metropolis within the postseason. Allen is 0-3 in opposition to Mahomes within the playoffs.
3 – Kansas City Chiefs (LW: 1) – They received’t go undefeated. However they’ll doubtless bounce proper again with Carolina and Las Vegas up subsequent.
4 – Philadelphia Eagles (LW: 5) – Six straight wins. The Birds are 1.5 video games up within the NFC East they usually have an opportunity to earn a first-round bye. Armed with Saquon Barkley and maybe the NFL’s finest protection, the Eagles are clearly the second-best staff of their convention.
5 – Pittsburgh Steelers (LW: 6) – Mike Tomlin is now 20-6-3 in opposition to the unfold and 18-11 straight up as a house underdog since he was employed in 2007. That’s good for one of the best cowl proportion and one of the best profitable proportion within the NFL throughout that span. The Steelers are at present kings of the AFC North at 8-2.
6 – Baltimore Ravens (LW: 4) – In seven profession video games in opposition to the Steelers, Lamar Jackson is 2-5. And he’s produced simply 5 touchdowns to 11 giveaways. Pittsburgh owns him.
7 – Green Bay Packers (LW: 8) – The Packers have been lucky to dam Chicago’s game-winning area objective try. In consequence, they’re nonetheless contending within the NFC North, although a wild card spot appears to be like more likely.
8 – Minnesota Vikings (LW: 9) – The Vikings have adopted up back-to-back losses to Detroit and LAR with three straight wins. Good response. Now let’s see how they maintain up with the schedule being rather less straightforward.
9 – Washington Commanders (LW: 7) – Jayden Daniels has appeared rather more mortal in latest weeks. Dropping to the Eagles was a giant blow to their possibilities of profitable the NFC East.
10 – Arizona Cardinals (LW: 11) – The Cardinals return from their bye to play in Seattle. Can they win their fifth straight sport to keep up their lead atop the NFC West?
11 – Los Angeles Chargers (LW: 13) – Justin Herbert hasn’t thrown an interception since Week 2. That’s his solely choose this season.
12 – Denver Broncos (LW: 16) – Bo Nix has 9 landing passes to only one interception over his final 4 begins. Is it potential he’s truly one of the best rookie quarterback from this yr’s class?
13 – San Francisco 49ers (LW: 10) – The Niners are 5-5 general and 1-3 in division video games after dropping to Seattle. Brock Purdy and Nick Bosa are reportedly banged up. San Francisco has the NFL’s fourth-most tough remaining power of schedule. Extra losses might be on the way in which.
14 – Houston Texans (LW: 14) – I do know they beat Dallas by 24 factors however I don’t assume the Texans appeared all that spectacular on Monday evening. They allowed a Cooper Rush-led offense to generate 388 yards. That’s solely three fewer yards than they produced. I’m conserving the Texans on fraud watch.
15 – Los Angeles Rams (LW: 17) – Matthew Stafford turned in his finest sport of the season with 4 landing passes and nil interceptions. After a 1-4 begin, the Rams are 4-1 of their final 5.
16 – Cincinnati Bengals (LW: 15) – Solely 4 groups have scored extra factors than the Bengals this season. Solely two groups have surrendered extra factors. Evaluation: offense good, protection unhealthy.
17 – Seattle Seahawks (LW: 20) – Geno Smith led a vital game-winning drive to maintain the Seahawks in rivalry for the NFC West crown. We’ll see simply how critical they’re about profitable their division with a house sport in opposition to Arizona up subsequent. They play the Cardinals in two out of their subsequent three video games.
18 – Tampa Bay Buccaneers (LW: 18) – The Bucs are getting Mike Evans again they usually have the NFL’s second-easiest remaining power of schedule. Regardless of dropping 4 straight, profitable their division may be very possible.
19 – Miami Dolphins (LW: 19) – Two straight wins has the Dolphins alive within the AFC playoff image. They’re at present within the ninth spot. With a house sport in opposition to the Pats up subsequent, there’s an opportunity Miami could make it three wins in a row.
20 – Atlanta Falcons (LW: 13) – Unserious squad. Solely 10 groups have a worse level differential. Stable likelihood the Falcons blow their NFC South lead.
21 – Indianapolis Colts (LW: 23) – Anthony Richardson posted one of the best passer score of his profession in his first sport again within the beginning lineup since being benched for Joe Flacco. Perhaps the motivational tactic labored?
22 – New York Jets (LW: 21) – Truthfully, the Jets ought to fireplace their interim head coach. He’s undoubtedly worse than Robert Saleh!
23 – Chicago Bears (LW: 22) – The Bears have had some actually brutal losses this season between Jayden Daniels’ Hail Mary and a blocked game-winning area objective. These two inconceivable performs go the opposite means they usually’re 6-4 as a substitute of 4-6 proper now.
24 – New Orleans Saints (LW: 31) – The Saints are 2-0 since firing Dennis Allen. Maybe that was one thing they need to’ve accomplished after final season.
25 – Cleveland Browns (LW: 24) – The Browns have misplaced two in a row. They may end their season with 9 straight losses? Last seven video games: vs. PIT, at DEN, at PIT, vs. KC, at CIN, vs. MIA, at BAL.
26 – New England Patriots (LW: 27) – The Pats have gumption. They lack expertise.
27 – Dallas Cowboys (LW: 25) – Permit me to be the eleventy billionth individual to make “The sky is actually falling in Dallas!” joke. Right here’s hoping the Cowboys handle to luck their means right into a win or two to mess up their draft positioning.
28 – Tennessee Titans (LW: 26) – Will Levis is decidedly not it.
29 – Las Vegas Raiders (LW: 28) – They personal the NFL’s longest dropping streak with six losses in a row. Congrats!
30 – Carolina Panthers (LW: 30) – The Panthers return from their bye to host the Chiefs. Three wins in a row looks like a bit a lot to ask.
31 – Jacksonville Jaguars (LW: 29) – Dropping by 46 factors isn’t perfect. Doug Pederson’s days are numbered.
32 – New York Giants (LW: 32) – For the primary time in a very long time, the Giants are doing one thing sensible: they’re tanking. Benching Daniel Jones is clearly about avoiding his damage assure for 2025 kicking in. However taking part in Tommy DeVito over Drew Lock reveals that the Giants need to lose. DeVito supplied a little bit of a spark final yr, yeah, however that’s not taking place once more. He’s unhealthy. And so unhealthy that he received benched mid-game for stinking in opposition to Matt Patricia’s Eagles protection final yr! The Giants are properly trying to land a high choose — and thus a brand new beginning quarterback — within the 2025 NFL Draft.
