NFL Power Rankings Based on Super Bowl Odds Ahead of Week 7 (Bills Make Statement, Upsets Galore in Week 6)
By Peter Dewey
You want an upset? You got them in Week 6 of the NFL season, as the San Francisco 49ers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Green Bay Packers and Baltimore Ravens all went down.
New York football make be back, as the New York Jets (4-2), New York Giants (5-1) and of course the Buffalo Bills (5-1) all won in Week 6.
Buffalo showed why it is the favorite to win the Super Bowl, executing a late drive to score to beat the Kansas City Chiefs. Two Patrick Mahomes picks doomed K.C. in the home loss.
Meanwhile the Philadelphia Eagles stayed perfect, holding off a second half surge by the Dallas Cowboys to move to 6-0 on the season. With so many Super Bowl contenders falling, how do our power rankings change this week?
Let's jump in:
1. Philadelphia Eagles (+550) Last Week: No. 1
The Eagles remain as dominant as ever, riding a huge first half to a win over Dallas to stay undefeated.
2. Buffalo Bills (+290) LW: No. 3
The Bills won their marquee matchup with the Chiefs, and they look like the team to beat in the AFC.
3. Kansas City Chiefs (+800) LW: No. 2
Two Patrick Mahomes picks doomed the Chiefs in Week 6, but they still showed they can compete with Buffalo.
4. Minnesota Vikings (+1600) LW: No. 4
It hasn't been pretty every week, but the Vikings just keep on winning football games to move to 5-1.
5. Los Angeles Chargers (+2100) LW: No. 8
It took some muffed punt luck, but the Chargers picked up a big win over the Broncos to keep the pace in the AFC West.
6. Dallas Cowboys (+2300) LW: No. 5
Dak Prescott should return for Dallas in Week 6, and it's impressive that the team was able to go 4-1 with Cooper Rush under center.
7. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+1100) LW: No. 6
The Bucs had an ugly loss to the Steelers in Week 6, but a get right spot with the Panthers awaits in Week 7.
8. Baltimore Ravens (+1800) LW: No. 7
The Ravens continue to blow leads in the fourth quarter, and they may cost themselves a playoff spot if this keeps up.
9. Cincinnati Bengals (+2200) LW: No. 11
Ja'Marr Chase and Joe Burrow got back to basics in Week 6, lighting up the Saints secondary in a bounce-back win.
10. New York Giants (+5000) LW: No. 13
Saquone Barkley and the Giants continue to defy the odds and win football games. 5-1 sounds pretty good for Brian Daboll's crew.
11. Los Angeles Rams (+2300) LW: No. 15
The Rams handled business against the Panthers, but Cam Akers may be on his way out after sitting out Week 6 for personal reasons.
12. San Francisco 49ers (+1700) LW: No. 9
The 49ers had a chance to take control of the NFC West in Week 6. Instead, they lost to the Atlanta Falcons...
13. Green Bay Packers (+2000) LW: No. 10
Are the Packers done? The Jets defense stymied Green Bay all day long. Now, with Randall Cobb hurt, Aaron Rodgers doesn't have many weapons left that he trusts.
14. Tennessee Titans (+5500) LW: No. 14
The Titans were on the bye in Week 6.
15. Miami Dolphins (+4000) LW: No. 12
The Dolphins need to get healthy at quarterback, as the carousel continued with Skylar Thompson getting injured in Week 6.
16. New England Patriots (+5000) LW: No. 17
Unflap the Zappe? Bailey Zappe led the Patriots to another win, throwing for 309 yards and pair of scores against the Browns.
17. Indianapolis Colts (+5500) LW: No. 21
The Colts came back to beat the Jags in Week 6, and they look like a contender to win the AFC South again.
18. New York Jets (+8500) LW: No. 19
The Jets have an elite defense, but Zach Wilson has to do more before they move up further in this list.
19. Atlanta Falcons (+15000) LW: No. 27
The Falcons are a bettors' best friend this season, going a perfect 6-0 against the spread.
20. Denver Broncos (+5500) LW: No. 23
Denver's season may be over after another poor offensive showing resulted in an OT loss in primetime.
21. Seattle Seahawks (+21000) LW: No. 25
The Seahawks are 3-3, and rookie running back Kenneth Walker III was terrific on a day where Geno Smith and the passing game weren't as great as they've been in 2022.
22. Cleveland Browns (+7500) LW: No. 16
The Browns are in a tailspin, losing back-to-back games and really struggling to generate offense through the air.
23. New Orleans Saints (+7000) LW: No. 22
The Saints came up short against Cincy, and they are facing an uphill battle for a playoff spot this season.
24. Arizona Cardinals (+10000) LW: No. 18
The Cardinals are in deep trouble, and Kliff Kingsbury usually starts to struggle at this point in the season...
25. Las Vegas Raiders (+7000) LW: No. 20
The Raiders were on a bye in Week 6.
26. Jacksonville Jaguars (+7500) LW: No. 24
The Jags have come back to earth after a hot start and now sit at 2-4 after a loss to Indy.
27. Pittsburgh Steelers (+22000) LW: No. 29
Mitch Trubisky replaced Kenny Pickett (concussion) and helped lead the Steelers to an upset win over the Bucs.
28. Washington Commanders (+31000) LW: No. 31
Carson Wentz is now out 4-6 weeks with a broken finger, but the Commanders at least beat the Bears on Thursday night.
29. Chicago Bears (+55000) LW: No. 26
Justin Fields needs some help, whether its from his teammates or playcallers to make this Bears' offense watchable.
30. Detroit Lions (+22000) LW: No. 28
The Lions were on a bye in Week 6.
31. Carolina Panthers (+55000) LW: No. 30
The Panthers stink, and they traded away Robbie Anderson following their loss. Does D.J. Moore or Christian McCaffrey come next?
32. Houston Texans (+55000) LW: No. 32
The Texans were on the bye in Week 6.
