Rank Team Rating Notes

1 BUF 10

Glided into victory in prime time vs Packers

2 KC 7

Bye: Adding Toney to the WR Group adds significantly

3 PHI 5.5

Have yet to trail in the second half of any game

4 SF 5

8 consecutive wins over Rams in regular season play

5 DAL 5

Made giving up 240 yards on the ground to Chicago look permissible

6 MIA 3

Hill and Waddle are nightmares and now Wilson gets added: big plus to offense

7 CIN 2.5

Tough start to the run w/o Jamarr Chase for the next month

8 BAL 2.5

Add Roquan Smith to the D and now Ravens are AFC contenders

9 MIN 2.5

Not winning comfortably but 6-1 is undeniable

10 TB 1.5

Zero TOs induced and allowing over 200 yards rushing adds to an already big fire

11 TEN 2

Derrick Henry is unstoppable yet again

12 SEA 0.5

Pete Carroll should be coach of the year for recognizing his talents

13 NO 0

If the Saints can consistently put it together they can actually challenge for the division

14 LAR 0.5

Arrow pointing in the wrong direction and this was expected – Rams lack depth

15 NYG 0.5

Unraveled for the Giants in Seattle but get Texans and Lions after the bye

16 CLE -0.5

The defense was stellar but how much of this was a lack of Bengals WR Chase?

17 LV -1

Shut out for the first time in 8 years

18 NE -0.5

Questions now persist at QB

19 GB -1

Sailed off the tracks and did nothing to improve at the trade deadline

20 DEN -2

Got a desperately needed victory in London vs Jags

21 ARI -1.5

Cardinals should not be this poorly run – mental errors causing key failures in week 8

22 LAC -1.5

Bye

23 NYJ -1.5

A three interception collapse reminds us all that the NYJ do not have a tier 1 QB

24 JAX -2

Trevor Lawrence’s growth trajectory stalled back in week 3. Must get better

25 ATL -2

Kicking FGs, like Younghoe Koo, makes the difference!

26 CHI -2.5

Bears acquisition of Chase Claypool at least signals a sign for hope next season

27 PIT -4

Season ended in Philadelphia and the prospects of seeing TJ Watt with it

28 DET -4.5

Lions gonna Lions: Scored on first 5 possessions and lead for 42 minutes then lost

29 HOU -5

Managed 161 yards of offense vs. Tennessee… Derrick Henry domination will do that

30 CAR -5.5

As bad a beat as you can get vs. Atlanta

31 WAS -6

Scratched out tough wins against poor comps – Vikings and Eagles up next

32 IND -7

New QB, same results. OC Marcus Brady fired this week
