Week 6 of the NFL season came and went in the blink of an eye. While it wasn’t as thrilling as Week 5, which featured multiple double-digit comebacks, there were still quite a few entertaining games and upsets.

We learned a lot this week, so it’s time to power rank all 32 NFL teams and see how they stack up against last week’s rankings.

32. New York Jets (0-6)

Last Week’s Ranking: 32

Week 6 Result: 13-11 loss to Broncos

PFF Rankings: Offense 27th, Defense 19th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 1 pm vs Panthers

The New York Jets are really bad at offense and pretty bad at defense. Still, there’s hope Aaron Glenn can turn things around…Just maybe not this year.

31. Tennessee Titans (1-5)

Last Week’s Ranking: 31

Week 6 Result: 20-10 loss to Raiders

PFF Rankings: Offense 30th, Defense 17th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 1 pm vs Patriots

The Tennessee Titans lost to one of the worst teams in the league by 10, and promptly fired their head coach. They’re about to turn over a new leaf, but there isn’t much hope for major change this year.

30. Cleveland Browns (1-5)

Last Week’s Ranking: 28

Week 6 Result: 23-9 loss to Steelers

PFF Rankings: Offense 32nd, Defense 1st

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 1 pm vs Dolphins

Imagine if the Jets were really good defensively. They’d be the Cleveland Browns. Dillon Gabriel hasn’t played badly, but he’s playing scared, which at times can be worse. Is it time to see what Shedeur Sanders has? At least there’d be some sort of excitement in Cleveland.

29. Miami Dolphins (1-5)

Last Week’s Ranking: 30

Week 6 Result: 29-27 loss to Chargers

PFF Rankings: Offense 25th, Defense 31st

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 1 pm vs Browns

The Miami Dolphins showed some signs of life in their 29-27 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. Their offense played well, but defensively, they’re just awful. They should’ve won this game, but they couldn’t get a stop late when they needed it.

28. Cincinnati Bengals (2-4)

Last Week’s Ranking: 25

Week 6 Result: 27-18 loss to Packers

PFF Rankings: Offense 31st, Defense 29th

Week 7 Matchup: Thursday, 8:15 pm vs Steelers

Joe Flacco did some good things in his first game with the Cincinnati Bengals. They showed signs of life on offense, but their defense still can’t get a stop in critical situations. Flacco may win them a few games, but making the playoffs is going to be tough.

27. Las Vegas Raiders (2-4)

Last Week’s Ranking: 29

Week 6 Result: 20-10 win over Titans

PFF Rankings: Offense 17th, Defense 30th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 1 pm vs Chiefs

The Las Vegas Raiders got their second win of the season, but it came against the Titans, so does it really even count? All it’ll do is drop them a couple of spots in the draft order and potentially make them miss out on a top quarterback.

26. New Orleans Saints (1-5)

Last Week’s Ranking: 26

Week 6 Result: 25-19 loss to Patriots

PFF Rankings: Offense 28th, Defense 21st

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 1 pm vs Bears

The New Orleans Saints are the feistiest 1-5 teams I’ve ever seen. They’re not going to win many games, but they’re going to upset somebody at some point. You’re probably going to win, but it’s never going to be a comfortable game against the Saints.

25. Arizona Cardinals (2-4)

Last Week’s Ranking: 26

Week 6 Result: 31-27 loss to Colts

PFF Rankings: Offense 23rd, Defense 26th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 4:25 pm vs Packers

I was pleasantly surprised by the Arizona Cardinals this week. They took it to the Indianapolis Colts with Jacoby Brissett at quarterback. Maybe it is time to kick Kyler Murray out the door.

24. Baltimore Ravens (1-5)

Last Week’s Ranking: 22

Week 6 Result: 17-3 loss to Rams

PFF Rankings: Offense 22nd, Defense 28th

Week 7 Matchup: Bye

The Baltimore Ravens looked more or less how I thought they would look this weekend. The offense was horrible, and while the defense held the Los Angeles Rams to 17 points, the weather and Puka Nacua’s injury played a role in that.

23. Dallas Cowboys (2-3-1)

Last Week’s Ranking: 20

Week 6 Result: 30-27 loss to Panthers

PFF Rankings: Offense 6th, Defense 32nd

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 4:25 pm vs Commanders

Imagine the exact opposite of the Browns. That’s the Dallas Cowboys. Their offense is so good, but man, that defense is horrendous. And before you say it, no, Micah Parsons would not make it much better.

22. New York Giants (2-4)

Last Week’s Ranking: 27

Week 6 Result: 34-17 win over Eagles

PFF Rankings: Offense 26th, Defense 12th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 4:05 pm vs Broncos

The New York Giants are an interesting team. They just took down the Philadelphia Eagles. On the other hand, they just lost to the Saints. At their peak, they’re a good team, but when they’re not 100 percent, they’re not all that threatening.

21. Carolina Panthers (3-3)

Last Week’s Ranking: 24

Week 6 Result: 30-27 win over Cowboys

PFF Rankings: Offense 13th, Defense 24th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 1 pm at Jets

Ever since that Carolina Panthers podcast quit because they couldn’t justify spending their time on a losing team, the Panthers have won two straight games. They just outscored the Cowboys, and they looked sharp. I don’t think they’re a playoff team, but they’re on the rise, for sure.

20. Minnesota Vikings (3-2)

Last Week’s Ranking: 19

Week 6 Result: Bye

PFF Rankings: Offense 24th, Defense 15th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 1 pm vs Eagles

The Minnesota Vikings were on a bye in Week 6, so there’s not much to report about. Big game coming up against the Eagles, which will tell us a lot about where they stand for the rest of the year.

19. Houston Texans (2-3)

Last Week’s Ranking: 17

Week 6 Result: Bye

PFF Rankings: Offense 16th, Defense 10th

Week 7 Matchup: Monday, 10 pm vs Seahawks

The Houston Texans were also on a bye this week, but have a big game coming up against the Seattle Seahawks. A win could propel them into the playoff hunt, but a loss would put them at 2-4, and they’d have to play catch-up for the rest of the year.

18. Washington Commanders (3-3)

Last Week’s Ranking: 13

Week 6 Result: 25-24 loss to Bears

PFF Rankings: Offense 10th, Defense 16th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 4:25 pm vs Cowboys

The Commanders let one slip away against the Bears. They had that game in their grasp; all they needed to do was milk the clock, but with some rain falling, Jayden Daniels couldn’t handle the snap, and the exchange with Jacory Croskey-Merritt was fumbled. It’s funny how a 60-minute game can come down to one play, but that’s what happened on Monday.

17. Chicago Bears (3-2)

Last Week’s Ranking: 21

Week 6 Result: 25-24 win over Commanders

PFF Rankings: Offense 18th, Defense 27th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 1 pm vs Saints

While the Bears were a bit fortunate on Monday night, you have to give credit where it’s due. They did what they needed to do to win the game, and sometimes that’s all that matters. I still want to see more from that offense, but they’re 3-2 and feeling decent about themselves in year one under Ben Johnson.

16. Los Angeles Chargers (4-2)

Last Week’s Ranking: 14

Week 6 Result: 29-27 win over Dolphins

PFF Rankings: Offense 19th, Defense 6th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 4:05 pm vs Colts

The Chargers beat the Dolphins, but it wasn’t very convincing. Their defense was suspect at best, but I liked what I saw from their offense – specifically the run game – with all their injuries.

15. Jacksonville Jaguars (4-2)

Last Week’s Ranking: 6

Week 6 Result: 20-12 loss to Seahawks

PFF Rankings: Offense 21st, Defense 8th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 9:30 am vs Rams (London)

The Jacksonville Jaguars fall pretty far in our power rankings because I think the Seahawks exposed some glaring weaknesses in this team. First is the pass game, which is still figuring itself out. Trevor Lawrence has looked good at times, but overall, he’s just been average. I also think the secondary has some big issues that need ironing out.

14. Pittsburgh Steelers (4-1)

Last Week’s Ranking: 12

Week 6 Result: 23-9 win over Browns

PFF Rankings: Offense 29th, Defense 5th

Week 7 Matchup: Thursday, 8:15 pm vs Bengals

The Pittsburgh Steelers did exactly what they needed to do against the Browns. It was a convincing win, but a couple of teams that were behind them made significant jumps, so they fall two spots this week.

13. Atlanta Falcons (3-2)

Last Week’s Ranking: 18

Week 6 Result: 24-14 win over Bills

PFF Rankings: Offense 13th, Defense 18th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 5:20 pm vs 49ers

The Falcons picked up a major win against the Bills on Monday night. They now have three quality wins, but that 30-0 loss to the Panthers still looks really bad. They’re an up-and-coming team, and should keep on rising if they stay hot.

12. Green Bay Packers (3-1-1)

Last Week’s Ranking: 11

Week 6 Result: 27-18 win over Bengals

PFF Rankings: Offense 7th, Defense 3rd

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 4:25 pm vs Cardinals

The Green Bay Packers looked solid coming off their bye week, beating the Bengals by nine. I would’ve liked to see more from their defense, but overall, nothing too big to complain about.

11. New England Patriots (4-2)

Last Week’s Ranking: 16

Week 6 Result: 25-19 win over Saints

PFF Rankings: Offense 9th, Defense 22nd

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 1 pm vs Titans

Drake Maye continues to be the best second-year quarterback in the NFL, and it’s not particularly close at the moment. He’s playing at an unreal level right now, and they should continue to roll with games against the Titans and Browns coming up.

10. Philadelphia Eagles (4-2)

Last Week’s Ranking: 3

Week 6 Result: 34-17 loss to Giants

PFF Rankings: Offense 12th, Defense 9th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 1 pm at Vikings

I still believe the Eagles have the top two most talented rosters in the NFL, but they just can’t put it together this year. They’re 4-2, but have lost two straight and have a date with the Vikings coming up before a bye. I just don’t feel great about the direction of this team right now.

9. Denver Broncos (4-2)

Last Week’s Ranking: 8

Week 6 Result: 13-11 win over Jets

PFF Rankings: Offense 20th, Defense 7th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 4:05 pm vs Giants

The Denver Broncos were a hard team to rank. They narrowly beat the worst team in the NFL. On the other hand, their defense proved they’re the best unit in football (in my opinion), and winning in London is hard, so I’m not knocking them for their poor performance offensively.

8. San Francisco 49ers (4-2)

Last Week’s Ranking: 7

Week 6 Result: 30-19 loss to Buccaneers

PFF Rankings: Offense 11th, Defense 25th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 5:20 pm vs Falcons

Losing to one of the top teams in the league shouldn’t hurt you too much. The 49ers are still a very good team that deserves to be in the top 10. They’re very banged up at the moment, so they could start to pick up a couple of losses, but when they’re healthy, they’re as talented as anyone.

7. Buffalo Bills (4-2)

Last Week’s Ranking: 2

Week 6 Result: 24-14 loss to Falcons

PFF Rankings: Offense 4th, Defense 23rd

Week 7 Matchup: Bye

The Bills looked lost for much of the game on Monday night. Their defense couldn’t get a stop in the first half, their offense constantly stalled out, and even though the Falcons scored just three second-half points, they never really came close to coming back. To make matters worse, the four teams the Bills have beaten have a combined record of 3-21.

6. Los Angeles Rams (4-2)

Last Week’s Ranking: 9

Week 6 Result: 17-3 win over Ravens

PFF Rankings: Offense 2nd, Defense 2nd

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 9:30 am vs Jaguars (London)

The Rams didn’t look amazing in their win over the Ravens, but they did what they needed to do with some questionable weather and a big injury to Puka Nacua. I’m excited to see how they play against the Jaguars, because if they win convincingly, they’ll be a top-five team next week.

5. Detroit Lions (4-2)

Last Week’s Ranking: 1

Week 6 Result: 30-17 loss to Chiefs

PFF Rankings: Offense 5th, Defense 4th

Week 7 Matchup: Monday, 7 pm vs Buccaneers

The Chiefs are a really, really good football team, I don’t care what the record says. Typically, a loss to a team like that on the road wouldn’t drop you five spots, but the Detroit Lions just didn’t look great. They were fine in the first half, but they couldn’t get anything going in the second half. I’d love to see this game played again on a neutral field (and we might in February).

4. Kansas City Chiefs (3-3)

Last Week’s Ranking: 15

Week 6 Result: 30-17 win over Lions

PFF Rankings: Offense 8th, Defense 14th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 1 pm vs Raiders

I never really lost faith in the Chiefs; I just couldn’t justify putting them any higher than 15th because of their results. They were 2-3, but their win over the Lions has me convinced they’re still the team to beat in the AFC. There are just a couple of teams that have earned a higher spot because of their resume.

3. Seattle Seahawks (4-2)

Last Week’s Ranking: 10

Week 6 Result: 20-12 win over Jaguars

PFF Rankings: Offense 1st, Defense 11th

Week 7 Matchup: Monday, 10 pm vs Texans

I really like what Mike Macdonald has going on in Seattle. They proved they’re a legit threat with their win over the Jaguars. I’m probably higher on the Seahawks than most people (I may be wrong), but these are my power rankings, and I think they’re the second-best team in the NFC as of today.

2. Indianapolis Colts (5-1)

Last Week’s Ranking: 5

Week 6 Result: 31-27 win over Cardinals

PFF Rankings: Offense 3rd, Defense 20th

Week 7 Matchup: Sunday, 4:05 pm vs Chargers

The Colts’ offense looked as good as it has all year, but their defense was exposed for one of the first times this year. Still, a win is a win, and right now, the Colts look like they’re going to be tough to beat.

1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-1)

Last Week’s Ranking: 4

Week 6 Result: 30-19 win over 49ers

PFF Rankings: Offense 15th, Defense 13th

Week 7 Matchup: Monday, 7 pm vs Lions

Taking over the top spot in our rankings is none other than the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Baker Mayfield and the offense were great despite being down their top four receivers and their top running back. I also thought their defense played one of their best games of the year, holding the 49ers to 19 points. Right now, they’re the team to beat in the NFC.
