1. New England Patriots (11-2, ▬): The AFC East title is within reach. 

2. San Francisco 49ers (9-4, ▬): Here come the 49ers, locked and loaded on offense and defense. 

3. Denver Broncos (11-2,  ▲1): Sometimes it isn't pretty. But a win is a win regardless of who it's against.

4. Los Angeles Rams (10-3, ▲1): Matthew Stafford is making a strong case to overtake Drake Maye for MVP

5: Buffalo Bills (9-4, ▲1): A comeback win that keeps their division and playoff hopes alive. 

6. Seattle Seahawks (10-3, ▲2): The Seahawks are steamrolling at the right time with another 30-point effort on offense.

7. Green Bay Packers (9-3-1, ▲2): The Packers are charging at the right time, but the schedule doesn't get any easier from here.

8. Chicago Bears (9-4, ▼5): Yes, they lost to the Packers. But they came back down 11 at the half to tie the game and one pass away from either winning the game or going to overtime at Lambeau. The Bears proved they belong in the NFC conversation.

9. Los Angeles Chargers (9-4, ▲1): Well, Justin Herbert missed no time, and they needed every bit of him to scratch out a win.

10. Jacksonville Jaguars (9-4, ▲3): Who had the Jags on top of the AFC South this late into the season?

11. Detroit Lions (8-5, ▲1): They will go as far as the running game will take them. 

12. Houston Texans (8-5, ▲4): The Texans' defense is one of the best in the league as they stymied the Chiefs all game long.

13. Carolina Panthers (7-6, ▲2): Somehow, the Panthers have found themselves right in the middle of the NFC South race with a good chance of winning the division.

14. Pittsburgh Steelers (7-6, ▲6): Aaron Rodgers, Mike Tomlin, and company didn't get the memo that they were done, pulling off a statement win over the Ravens to reclaim first place in the AFC North.

15.​ Indianapolis Colts (8-5, ▼5): Keeps getting worse for the Colts with Daniel Jones out for the year with a torn Achilles. Phillip Rivers to save the day?

16. Dallas Cowboys (6-6-1, ▼2): The defense needs to shore it up and in a hurry, as they are somehow still in the hunt as the Eagles continue to slide.

17. Philadelphia Eagles (8-5, ▼10): What is going on in Philadelphia? It feels like 2023 all over again. 

18. Miami Dolphins (6-7, ▲3): Give Mike McDaniel credit. He's got the team believing, and they are within a game of .500, which is a credit to them in not giving up.

19. Baltimore Ravens (6-7, ▬): A close loss to the Steelers and fell out of first place. There is still time to win the division.

20. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (7-6, ▼3): Paging Baker Mayfield. Paging Baker Mayfield.

21. Kansas City Chiefs (6-7, ▼3): It feels very weird to say the Chiefs are likely out of the playoffs.

22. Cincinnati Bengals (4-9, ▬): Played better than expected against the Bills. The defense keeps letting them down.

23. Minnesota Vikings (5-8, ▲5): A chance for JJ McCarthy to show the Vikings not to invest in a quarterback in the 2026 draft.

24. Cleveland Browns (3-10, ▲2): A good game by Shadeur Sanders was ruined by questionable play calling by the coaching staff, and a bad defensive effort against the league's worst team.

25. Tennessee Titans (2-11, ▲7): The Titans could have quit a long time ago, but they keep on fighting and not giving up. 

26. New Orleans Saints (3-10, ▬): A solid team win and Tyler Shough playing his best game of the season against the first-place Bucs. 

27. New York Jets (3-10, ▼4): Bring back Justin Fields.

28. Atlanta Falcons (4-9, ▼4): No heart shown in their blowout loss to the Seahawks.

29. New York Giants (2-11, ▬): At least Jaxson Dart is back to make the Giants at least watchable.

30. Arizona Cardinals (3-10, ▼5): Don't know how Jonathan Gannon still has a job.

31. Las Vegas Raiders (2-11, ▬): The clock is ticking on Pete Carroll. 

32. Washington Commanders (3-10, ▼5): Dan Quinn should be fired for even bringing back Jayden Daniels to play in Week 14 only to see him get hurt again.
