A Tier: The Real Deal
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-0)
After two close wins against Atlanta and Houston, this team is on fire. Baker Mayfield looks as great as the year prior, and young talent like Bucky Irving and first-rounder Emeka Egbuka, look elite after week 2.
As this team continues this season, it is hard not to view them as the clear winners of the NFC North and a dark horse to go far in this year’s playoffs.
- Washington Commanders (1-1)
This Commanders team is having a rough go so far this season. Jayden Daniels could possibly be out for multiple weeks and they lost Austin Ekeler to an Achilles tear.
Despite injuries, this defensive unit has taken a leap from last year, and with offensive pieces Deebo Samuel and Terry McLaurin, it’s hard to remove them from the top 10 in the rankings.
- Kansas City Chiefs (0-2)
Although the Chiefs have started 0-2 this season, they are still an elite team. It is hard to ever count Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid out and they still are missing some key pieces in Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy due to injury and suspension.
In two close losses to playoff teams, it would be wrong to give up on the Chiefs quite yet, because they seem to always find a way.
- Los Angeles Rams (2-0)
The Rams look great to start the season. Stafford’s connection with Puka Nakua and Davante Adams are getting better each week and this defense looks better than last year.
With a 2-0 start, it’s hard not to see the Rams as a top team. Expect them to make a huge playoff push this season.
- Los Angeles Chargers (2-0)
This team looks fantastic. Quinten Johnston has finally fixed his drop issues, Justin Herbert is playing like an MVP candidate and this defense is on fire.
After beating two division rivals and the best team in the league over the last decade, this team is in it to win it this season.
S Tier: Super Bowl Ready
- Detroit Lions (1-1)
Despite a tough loss to the Packers week one, they came back and showed that this offense still has elite firepower.
After putting up 52 on the Bears, they proved that they are still dominant in this league and are a top team week in and week out.
- Philadelphia Eagles (2-0)
After two ugly wins, this team has yet to replicate their Super Bowl run performance. The passing game is abysmal and Saquon Barkley is not replicating his historic 2024 season.
Although this team is still a top-tier contender, they are consistently pulling away in tight games, and this defense is still elite, as they shut down the Cowboys’ passing attack and the Chiefs’ offense overall. Their ability to stick out in gritty games makes them a consistent contender and a top team in the league.
- Baltimore Ravens (1-1)
The Ravens have looked phenomenal to start the season. This defense is elite outside of a frustrating loss to the Bills and this rushing attack with Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry in the backfield looks like possibly the best run game duo of all time.
This past Sun,day they were able to put up 41 on the Browns defense, a unit that is the only highlight of this struggling franchise. Their Super Bowl-ready ceiling and elite rushing attack keep them at the top of the power rankings this week.
- Green Bay Packers (2-0)
This Packers team looks the best they have since their last Super Bowl win. Matt LaFleur has perfectly developed Jordan Love and Josh Jacobs is on the biggest hot streak of his career, with a touchdowns in ten straight games.
The Micah Parsons trade was the cherry on top of creating a Super Bowl-ready franchise in Green Bay, and these first two weeks have proved the Pack is a top team in the league.
- Buffalo Bills (2-0)
This team has shown up and showed out to start the season, as they always do. James Cook has taken another leap this year and has proven he is an elite back and Josh Allen looks like the MVP frontrunner again.
It’s too early to say this, but then again, this is a perfect list, the Bills look like they will be the team to hoist the Lombardi at the end of the 25-26 season.
