Every week, AnythingNFL's got our list of the power rankings for each team. These rankings are determined by their performance in the previous week. Don't worry if your favorite team isn't as high up as you want it to be, because we're sure your team will rise back up in a couple weeks! Let's go to the top eight teams of week one, and our explanation.
1st Rank: Kansas City Chiefs
2nd Rank: Jacksonville Jaguars
3rd Rank: Detroit Lions
4th Rank: New England Patriots
5th Rank: Green Bay Packers
6th Rank: Minnesota Vikings
7th Rank: Carolina Panthers
8th Rank: Los Angeles Rams
These eight teams are what you would call -- playoff teams. Now, we know it is only Week One, but these teams might have a shot at getting in. Surprisingly, half of these teams haven't been to the playoffs last year, so we're seeing some definite improvement. We're liking what we see from these guys. Now, let's head to the ninth through sixteenth ranks.
9th Rank: Philadelphia Eagles
10th Rank: Baltimore Ravens
11th Rank: Pittsburgh Steelers
12th Rank: Atlanta Falcons
13th Rank: Dallas Cowboys
14th Rank: Oakland Raiders
15th Rank: Buffalo Bills
16th Rank: Seattle Seahawks
These teams are pretty decent; not your worst of the worst teams, nor your Super Bowl champion teams. Actually, five of these teams made it to the playoffs, and all had at least seven wins in the regular season. So, while we are seeing a lot of improvement, could this be a chance where these teams are getting worse? We'll have to see as we continue. Now, let's move on to the seventeenth through twenty-fourth ranks.
17th Rank: New Orleans Saints
18th Rank: Tennesse Titans
19th Rank: Houston Texans
20th Rank: Washington Redskins
21st Rank: Denver Broncos
22nd Rank: Los Angeles Chargers
23rd Rank: Arizona Cardinals
24th Rank: Chicago Bears
These teams need some work; actually, a LOT of work. In fact, seven out of these eight teams lost in their week one matchup. And the highest score was a mere 21 points. We're surprised to see the Texans down here, as Watson supposedly was a stellar pick. However, he didn't play as well as we thought he would, so we placed the Texans pretty low. But, these teams have a chance to rise up. Now, we go to the bottom of the barrel -- the worst if you will.
25th Rank: New York Giants
26th Rank: Miami Dolphins
27th Rank: Tampa Bay Buccaneers
28th Rank: San Francisco 49ers
29th Rank: Indianapolis Colts
30th Rank: New York Jets
31st Rank: Cleveland Browns
32nd Rank: Cincinnati Bengals
Now . . . we have the twenty-fifth to thirty-second teams. You don't want your team to be here, nor does the head coach. Many people may say that the New York Giants didn't play THAT bad against the Cowboys, and we aren't too sure about that. They had 14 rushing yards, and Odell couldn't do ANYTHING in the air. However, we're definitely positive that the Giants will rise up, especially after the addition of New York Jets wide receiver Brandon Marshall.
There you have it, our power rankings of Week One of the NFL season. As it just started, don't be worried if your team lost (especially Patriot fans) because we're sure that they'll come back to win at least ONE game. We're sure you'll be happy about that!
