2024’s likely Super Bowl contenders have officially been established. Rookies are taking over at QB for bad teams. And disgruntled receivers are getting moved. Nature is healing! Check out how all 32 teams stack up in our week 7 power rankings below.
-
Kansas City Chiefs (LW: 1) – A Super Bowl rematch will be a decent test for this injury-plagued offense off of a bye week.
-
Detroit Lions (3) – A top-tier contender that will need to compensate big time for the loss of Aidan Hutchinson.
-
Minnesota Vikings (2) – On the road most of the next month, they’ll try to win a rare, but huge, home game against the Lions.
-
Houston Texans (4) – Joe Mixon joined the party again as the Texans buried the Patriots within minutes of kickoff.
-
Baltimore Ravens (5) – An unstoppable offense with the current MVP favorite at QB seems pretty good.
-
Buffalo Bills (6) – A win keeps the Bills at 6 and likely secures an AFC East title. We’ll see if Amari Cooper can inject life into an offense prone to ugly stretches.
-
Green Bay Packers (8) – Jordan Love added a few graceful giraffe runs on Sunday to show fans he’s feeling just fine.
-
Washington Commanders (7) – Yeah, yeah. No such thing as moral victories. But if there is, your rookie QB hanging with a Super Bowl contender would be the dictionary definition.
-
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (10) – Baker Mayfield and co. made the Saints’ defense chopped liver. Not a huge surprise, but everything looks easy for this offense right now.
-
Atlanta Falcons (11) – Fantasy managers rejoice: Bijan Robinson can indeed score touchdowns.
-
Philadelphia Eagles (13) – Nick Sirianni is 3 weeks away from recreating Malice at the Palace.
-
San Francisco 49ers (16) – It’s going to be a lot uglier than 2023, but this offense still has enough firepower to impress.
-
Chicago Bears (15) – Three straight games against some of the worst defenses are exactly what Caleb Williams needed to find his footing and give Bears fans a whole lot of confidence.
-
Pittsburgh Steelers (12) – Russell Wilson is now the starter because… reasons?
-
Seattle Seahawks (17) – Life has been a lot different in Seattle when facing better QB play. Still, this team is in fine position for the NFC West crown.
-
Dallas Cowboys (9) – Do not criticize dear leader on the airwaves!!!
-
Los Angeles Chargers (19) – The dramatic turnaround for this defense may not last once the competition gets stronger, but their intentionally ugly, slow offense should keep them in every game.
-
New Orleans Saints (14) – An aging group of guys trying to prove they’re not washed and injured. That’s just another day in The Big Easy, baby.
-
Arizona Cardinals (20) – And the award for the most fun mid team goes to….!
-
Denver Broncos (18) – Every Bo Nix passing chart is an affront to the position. Still, .500 is .500.
-
Cincinnati Bengals (21) – Joe Burrow’s slim shady act seems to be working out just fine. Can the rest of the team find enough consistency to go on a run?
-
Indianapolis Colts (26) – The next few weeks should bring the return of Anthony Richardson and Jonathan Taylor. They’ll be needed to compensate for an abysmal defense.
-
New York Jets (22) – Get ready to learn WR3, Garrett Wilson.
-
Los Angeles Rams (23) – At 1-4, it may be too late for Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp to return and make a difference.
-
New York Giants (24) – They still can’t score, but Malik Nabers and Tyrone Tracy should make this team watchable on offense all year.
-
Las Vegas Raiders (27) – Davante Adams seems to have taken a celebratory red eye out of Vegas. He’s one of us!
- Jacksonville Jags (25) – The NFL might just force them to stay in London.
-
Cleveland Browns (28) – If the Browns keep trading offensive weapons, maybe they can just convince Deshaun Watson to retire!
-
Miami Dolphins (29) – Pulling out just one win before Tua Tagovailoa returns could be the difference in their season.
-
New England Patriots (32) – Drake Maye immediately raised this offense’s ceiling to “watchable.” A massive feat after what we saw the first month of the season.
-
Tennessee Titans (30) – Go watch Calvin Ridley’s “targets” vs the Colts. That sums this team up.
-
Carolina Panthers (31) – A -100 point differential. Can they reach the 1976 Buccaneers record of -287???
