NFL power rankings, Week 8: Ravens surge, Eagles fall
The Baltimore Ravens pulled off an impressive win over the Seattle Seahawks, while the Philadelphia Eagles are a lost team searching for help.
Miami Dolphins. 32. team. 59. . 0-6. Previous:
The Dolphins looked like they might win, and then they didn’t.
Previous: . Cincinnati Bengals. 31. team. 56. . 0-7
The Bengals are atrocious.
Washington has no ability to score a point.
Atlanta Falcons. 29. team. 44. . 1-6. Previous:
Atlanta is waiting to fire Dan Quinn for reasons unknown.
. 1-5. Previous: . New York Jets. 28. team. 30
The fat lady is screaming at this point.
2-5. Previous: . New York Giants. 27. team. 31.
Daniel Jones is having a rough month, and the Giants are sinking fast.
team. 13. . 2-5. Previous: . Los Angeles Chargers. 26
Los Angeles is about to hibernate for a long winter.
45. . 2-5. Previous: . Denver Broncos. 25. team
Joe Flacco and a defensive-minded staff are not a good match.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 24. team. 48. . 2-4. Previous:
The Buccaneers need Jameis Winston to stop turning the ball over. Good luck.
2-4. Previous: . Pittsburgh Steelers. 23. team. 55.
Pittsburgh is hanging around in the postseason chase, but barely.
Previous: . Cleveland Browns. 22. team. 53. . 2-4
The Browns are coming off their bye week to play the Patriots in Foxboro. Have fun.
Previous: . Arizona Cardinals. 21. team. 32. . 3-3-1
Don’t look now, but the Cardinals have won three straight and now get a great test in New Orleans.
Tennessee Titans. 20. team. 35. . 3-4. Previous:
The Titans won, then lost, then somehow won again this weekend.
team. 57. . 3-3. Previous: . Chicago Bears. 19
Mitch Trubisky is a disaster.
Previous: . Oakland Raiders. 18. team. 28. . 3-3
Nobody was beating Aaron Rodgers on Sunday. Can the Raiders regroup and ahndle the Will Fuller-less Texans?
Previous: . Jacksonville Jaguars. 17. team. 52. . 3-4
Gardner Minshew is returning to earth, but the Bengals were an easy mark.
Philadelphia Eagles. 16. team. 54. . 3-4. Previous:
There are ample issues going on with the Eagles. The next four games are rough.
50. . 2-3-1. Previous: . Detroit Lions. 15. team
The Lions have endured a few rough weeks, losing consecutive NFC North games.
Previous: . Los Angeles Rams. 14. team. 51. . 4-3
Beating the Falcons doesn’t deserve any acclaim. We’ll see what the Rams are as the season goes on.
. 4-3. Previous: . Houston Texans. 13. team. 10
Houston lost a key game this week, and now will be without Will Fuller for the foreseeable future. Tough weekend.
. 4-2. Previous: . Carolina Panthers. 12. team. 87
Kyle Allen or Cam Newton?
Baltimore Ravens. 11. team. 26. . 5-2. Previous:
The Ravens are looking more and more like a real contender, especially in the largely weak AFC.
123. . 4-3. Previous: . Dallas Cowboys. 10. team
Huge win for the Cowboys, who would have been entering crisis mode with another loss.
team. 36. . 5-2. Previous: . Seattle Seahawks. 9
Disappointing result against the Ravens, who ran the ball down Seattle’s throat all day.
16. . 5-1. Previous: . Buffalo Bills. 8. team
It’s a rare time when a winning team falls. The Bills struggled to beat the Dolphins at home. The quarterback is a problem.
. 5-2. Previous: . Kansas City Chiefs. 7. team. 124
Kansas City will miss Patrick Mahomes for a few weeks, but it will get him back at the right time.
Previous: . Indianapolis Colts. 6. team. 46. . 4-2
The Colts are talented, but its the coaching staff that makes them a fantastic team.
Previous: . Minnesota Vikings. 5. team. 60. . 5-2
Kirk Cousins has gone from chump to champ in the span of three weeks.
4. team. 42. . 6-0. Previous: . San Francisco 49ers
The only undefeated team in the NFC, even if it is playing the WAC.
. 6-1. Previous: . New Orleans Saints. 3. team. 15
Undefeated while Drew Brees is injured. Incredible.
Previous: . Green Bay Packers. 2. team. 49. . 6-1
If Aaron Rodgers starts playing like that consistently, forget it.
7-0. Previous: . New England Patriots. 1. team. 47.
This is like a high school kid fighting a toddler.
