NFL power rankings 2015: Week 11
Mowing down the greatest NFL power rankings in the history of mankind for Week 11.
The picture for this post perfectly encapsulates Cam Newton’s day against the Washington Redskins. The $100 million man was en fuego, throwing for five touchdowns and torching the overmatched Redskins for 44 points.
Next: Can The Cowboys Actually Make The Playoffs?
Not one to be ignored, Jameis Winston continues to get better each week. He, too, tossed a five-bagger against the Sanchize-led Eagles, and more or less closed the coffin lid on Chip Kelly’s tenure in Philly.
Elsewhere in quarterbacks, Tony Romo returned and led the Cowboys to their first victory since Week 2. On the flip side, Joe Flacco tore up his knee on the final drive against St. Louis and is now out for the season. Baltimore basically got the Old Yeller treatment, as they also lost Justin Forsett to a broken arm. And in Denver, the Brock Osweiler Experience got off to a winning start.
After dropping three consecutive games and losing ground in the NFC North, the Green Bay Packers came out with gusto and bullied the Minnesota Vikings all over the field. For the first time in darn near a calendar month the Packers played invigorated football. Week 17 should be a fun one when these teams play in Lambeau, perhaps to decide the the division.
In the avenue of mercurial teams, we have the Colts actually pulling out a victory from the jaws of sure defeat. On the flip side of that coin was Matt Ryan helping plunge the dagger in his team’s heart with a crippling pick-six (losing Devonta Freeman early in the game also didn’t help).
Are the Chiefs actually good?
The Texans?
What about the Bucs?!
