Week 5 Power Rankings
We are officially a month into the season. Can’t believe it right? The emotions are on such a pendulum from week to week, but as each passing week goes by, the intensity raises. Four weeks is a good sample size for what teams are early in the season. As we know, things can change on a dime, but identities (mostly) are there. Injuries are taking place. Depth is being tested. Coaches seats are getting hot. Let’s see where each team matches up…

Week 3 Power Rankings!
Believe it or not, we are almost at the end of September! Week 3 is coming full steam ahead, and we have a few teams that are turning our heads a bit. We also have others that are floundering…One thing to remember though. It is VERY, VERY early. This is a marathon, not a sprint. Last season, the 49ers were on the verge of collapsing before righting the ship in November. I remember in 2021 when the Bucs weren’t gonna make the playoffs in December before they got everything together and won a title. Things change in a flash in the NFL. But that doesn’t mean that we can’t perk our ears up and pat some teams on the back here. Let’s see what we got with Week 3 knocking on the door.

Week 3 Power Rankings
Kansas City Chiefs (-) - Status quo.
Buffalo Bills (+6) - Extremely impressive first two weeks.
Houston Texans (+2) - Taking care of business.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+5) - Revenge in Detroit.
San Francisco 49ers (-4) - Haven’t beaten the Vines in Minnesota since ‘92.
Detroit Lions (-3) - Jared Goff needs to step it up.
New Orleans Saints (+8) - Klint Kubiak for President.
Pittsburgh Steelers (+4) - Its never pretty.
Los Angeles Chargers (+9) - The Harbaugh effect.
Minnesota Vikings (+12) - Eyebrow raising win against SF.
Arizona Cardinals (+14) - It wasn’t the win that impressed; it was how they won. Maybe the close loss in Buffalo wasn’t a fluke.
Seattle Seahawks (+7) - Winning the games on their schedule.
Dallas Cowboys (-9) - Embarrassing home loss.
New York Jets (-) - I need a dominant performance.
Green Bay Packers (+2) - Guts.
Atlanta Falcons (+4) - Benchmark win in Philly
Philadelphia Eagles (-7) - Difficult to watch. Truly.
Las Vegas Raiders (+12) - Some Minshew Moxxy late in Baltimore.
Baltimore Ravens (-13) - Big woof.
Miami Dolphins (-9) - Without Tua its game over.
New England Patriots (+2) - Fighting hard.
Cincinnati Bengals (-1) - too good to get brownie points to losing to KC by 1.
Cleveland Browns (+4) - More that the team they played lost the game then Cleveland won.
Chicago Bears (-) - The offense has been piss poor.
Jacksonville Jaguars (-12) - Blow it up. Offensive gameplan is atrocious.
Washington Commanders (+4) - They won a game! Who cares if its against the Giants.
Indianapolis Colts (-11) - The Anthony Richardson we saw Sunday was the one I fear may be the guy we usually get.
Los Angeles Rams (-21) - Injuries already seeping in. Embarrassed by Arizona. This could get ugly quick.
Tennessee Titans (-3) - Will Levis has solely prevented them from being 2-0.
Denver Broncos (-2) - The Bo Nix we saw at Auburn is coming out. Funny enough he’s wearing orange again.
New York Giants (+1) - The rise is because of the team below them. On to 2025.
Carolina Panthers (-1) - Good lord. Is Bryce Young the biggest bust since JaMarcus Russell?
