  NFL power rankings

  1. Baltimore Ravens, 13-2 (previous ranking: 1)

  The Ravens stayed hot and made it 11 straight wins overall by beating up the team (the Browns) that last beat them. After Baltimore rests its key players in Week 17, it might not lose again until next season as the clearSuper Bowl favorite. Congratulations to Lamar Jackson on hisMVP season.

  2. San Francisco 49ers, 12-3 (5)

  The 49ers made the volume of big plays nece sary to outlast the Rams and eliminate the reigning NFC champions. They quickly took back R.A. Dickey Jersey control of the NFC West and regained the momentum needed to become the NFC team to beat.

  3. Green Bay Packers, 12-3 (2)

  The Packers kept up with the NFC heavyweight with their impre sive throwdown of the Vikings in Minnesota to take the NFC North. They are finding their right balance of offense and defense at the right time.

  4. New Orleans Saints, 12-3

  The Saints marched into Nashville, and after a slow start, they turned on the afterburners with record-setters Drew Brees and Michael Thomas, plus a welcome return to explosivene s for Alvin Kamara. They have a chance to put it together and finish the SuperBowl run they couldn't complete last season.

  5. Kansas City Chiefs, 11-4 (3)

  The Chiefs also look like they want to finish unfinished busine s from their conference championship game from a season ago. Patrick Mahomesand the offense ismaking plenty of plays while the defense is starting to get in a swarming groove.

  6. New England Patriots, 12-3 (7)

  There go the Patriots, figuring out a Hank Aaron Jersey few more things offensively while still dominating on defense and special teams. Everyone should know by now not to write them off until time runs out in a playoff game in which they are trailing.

  7. Seattle Seahawks, 11-4 (4)

  The Seahawks fell flat at home against the Cardinals to hurt their chances of staying at home in the playoffs. Now they are injury-ravaged and going into a rematch with the 49ers with le s confidence.

  8. Buffalo Bills, 10-5

  The Bills fought hard and played well in New England, but for a second time this season, they couldn't generate enough offense and made the greater mistakes. They're a strong playoff team while still learning how to win, and all the credit goes to Sean McDermott and his staff.

  9. Minnesota Vikings, 10-5(9)

  The Vikings don't want to be forgotten in the NFC playoff picture with their ticket punched. But their lo s to the Packers brought up more skepticism againstKirk Cousins and their defense.

  10. Houston Texans, 10-5 (10)

  The Texans were sloppy against the Buccaneers and got away with it, because their opponent was even sloppier. Houston has had some high moments, including beating Kansas City and New England, but after the one-and-donelast season, the Texans need to restore some good Shane Greene Jersey playoff vibes in Week 17.

  11. Philadelphia Eagles, 8-7 (16)

  The Eagles fly up the rankings after dominating the Cowboys defensively in their biggest game of the seasonwhile also continuing to show more creative offensive pop. Doug Pederson has done another great December coaching job.

  12. Los Angeles Rams, 8-7 (14)

  The Rams should be frustratedabout mi sing the playoffs, because while the offense and defense each have looked great at times,there has beentoo much inconsistency for Sean McVay's team. Expect a coaching/personnel shake-up in the offseason.

  13. Tenne see Titans, 8-7 (12)

  The Titans somehow are despite their bad second half against the Saints. Tenne see has been impre sive offensively with Ryan Tannehill, even without Derrick Henry, to compensate for its breakdowns defensively. Mike Vrabel has done another underrated coaching job.

  14. Pittsburgh Steelers, 8-7 (13)

  Mike Tomlin and the defense have kept the Steelers in the hunt as long as po sible, but things have started to unravel with the ineffective quarterback toggling between Mason Rudolph and Devlin Hodges. It's hard to overcome suchoffensive ineptitude in the modern NFL.

  15. Dallas Cowboys, 7-8 (11)

  What was that? We understand Dallas'defense struggling in key moments, but its high-powered pa sing offense let the team downin Philadelphia. Jason Garrett Warren Spahn Jersey with his shakiest operation to date.

  16. Oakland Raiders, 7-8 (19)

  The Raiders in the NFL playoff picture because Jon Gruden keeps getting them to fight throughtheir final run for Oakland. They have filled more personnel holes than most would think in 2019, and they will carry some good momentum to Las Vegas.

  17. Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 7-8 (15)

  The Bucs made a lot of improvements offensively with Bruce Arians and Byron Leftwichthis season, but their bigger strides may have come defensively with Todd Bowles and some good 3-4 personnel, young and old. Watch for the Bucs next year with James Winston likely to return and cut down on his mistakes.

  18. Indianapolis Colts, 7-8(20)

  The Colts managed as well as they could without Andrew Luck this season, as injuries ruined what they could have been with Jacoby Bri sett. Their getting to. 500would be admirable.

  19. Chicago Bears, 7-8 (17)

  The Bears didn't improve enough offensively with Mitchell Trubisky to match their natural defensive regre sion this season. Matt Nagy and Trubiskyshouldbe safe as a coaching-QB combination for 2020.

  20. Atlanta Falcons, 6-9 (21)

  The Falcons have keptfighting to prove Dan Quinn should remaintheir head coach. The defensive turnaround has been strong,and the offense has matched it Fred McGriff Jersey with a more physical identity down the stretch.

   

  21. Cleveland Browns, 6-9 (18)

  The Browns this season with consistent dysfunction, le
