10. NFL Power Rankings: Philadelphia Eagles

The Eagles just crack the top 10 thanks to an aggressive front office that continues to do good work keeping the team in the hunt for the postseason. Carson Wentz is entering a big year as he looks to stay healthy and capture a postseason win for the first time in his career.

Better health at wide receiver will be key as the Eagles saw Alshon Jeffery and DeSean Jackson miss significant time with injuries a year ago. Philadelphia still plays in a weak division, which will help as they really only have to tangle with the Cowboys for NFC East supremacy.

9. NFL Power Rankings: Tennessee Titans

This team made a ton of noise in the postseason with their run to the AFC Championship Game and will be looking to prove it wasn’t a fluke. Tennessee has won exactly nine regular-season games in each of the past four years so they will need to do a bit better than that to secure another trip to the postseason.

There will also be a bigger spotlight on Tennessee, which will have to hope Ryan Tannehill can duplicate his breakthrough 2019 season and that Derrick Henry is up for another massive workload. Teams like Jacksonville and Chicago have struggled to follow up breakthrough success in recent years so it will be interesting to see if the Titans can avoid falling into a rut like those organizations did.
