We saw movement throughout our power rankings this week, with a pair of powerhouse teams at the top, and a few teams that remain lower in our model than they do in the standings.
As a reminder: Our power rankings differ from most of our counterparts’ in that they are not tied to win-loss records or nonquantifiable ideas such as momentum or positive vibes. They are simply a reflection of what our model says are the best teams in the NFL right now and how they should be expected to perform moving forward.
