The Kansas City Chiefs remain the only undefeated team in the NFL.
Spoiler alert: They remain No. 1 in our Power Rankings through Week 7. However, there was some shakeup after a wild week for some top teams.
Last week featured matchups that had our second-ranked team against the No. 3 squad, and there was another top 10 matchup.
And some teams near the bottom early on are starting to find permanent homes at the top.
Read below for the latest rankings.
1. Kansas City Chiefs (6-0)
After five wins that all felt lucky, the Chiefs validated everything with a statement win in a rematch of the 2024 Super Bowl. Now, as the league’s last undefeated team standing, there isn’t an argument left to keep Kansas City out of the top spot.
2. Detroit Lions (5-1)
Even without Defensive Player of the Year favorite Aidan Hutchinson, the Lions knocked off the undefeated Vikings on the road in a massive win for Detroit. They are the favorites to win the NFC and for good reason.
3. Baltimore Ravens (5-2)
22. Los Angeles Rams (2-4)
This Rams team, without Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua, just can’t do much. The high-powered Vikings pay a visit on Thursday, which is a cause for concern.
23. New Orleans Saints (2-5)
Running back Alvin Kamara admitted fans were “fed up” after many booed before leaving the Superdome well before the blowout loss to the Denver Broncos came to an end. Veteran quarterback Derek Carr could return to the starting lineup as early as this Sunday for a game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Whenever Carr is fully recovered from his oblique injury, he should give New Orleans a boost. But the Saints still have a host of other issues to correct if this team wants to turn its season around.
24. New York Jets (2-5)
Aaron Rodgers is getting a lot of blame for New York’s bad start, but coaching, receiver play and a defense not being as strong as it should have contributed.
25. Miami Dolphins (2-4)
Tua Tagovailoa is returning, but it feels like the season is already a lost one in Miami. The yo-yo of Tua’s availability cannot be a long-term strategy of success for the Dolphins.
26. New York Giants (2-5)
The two decisions that defined the offseason — not replacing QB Daniel Jones and letting RB Saquon Barkley go — are looking rough right now.
27. Jacksonville Jaguars (2-5)
Was this the “get right game” for the Jaguars in London? They dominated a struggling Patriots squad, especially on the ground, where Tank Bigsby rushed for over 100 yards with two touchdowns in his start for the injured Travis Etienne Jr. Trevor Lawrence also looked more efficient, going 15-for-20 through the air for 193 yards with a touchdown to trusted rookie Brian Thomas Jr.
28. Las Vegas Raiders (2-5)
The Raiders now have a quarterback controversy after signing Desmond Ridder. On top of that, the Devante Adams trade might not be the team’s last big deal either. Rumors are swirling about more Raiders stars being traded before the deadline.
29. Tennessee Titans (1-5)
Mason Rudolph started for the injured Will Levis, and though things started off hot on the road in Buffalo the Bills ran away with this one. Rudolph threw 40 times because of the deficit, completing 25 of them for 215 yards with a touchdown and an interception. But this squad can’t seem to find momentum as it moved to 1-5, digging itself in the AFC playoff picture.
30. Cleveland Browns (1-6)
It’s rock bottom in Cleveland right now. The Yankees eliminated the Guardians in the ALCS, Deshaun Watson ruptured his Achilles and it feels like the fire sale has begun for the Browns after they traded Amari Cooper. Expect more players to get traded out of Cleveland over the next few weeks as they look toward the future.
31. New England Patriots (1-6)
It seems like a race between Jerod Mayo and Jacksonville’s Doug Pederson for the next coach to be fired, and Mayo might win (lose?) that.
32. Carolina Panthers (1-5)
When the Panthers made the switch from Bryce Young to Andy Dalton, the team appeared to be betting on the veteran quarterback’s experience and hoped he could help them at least be competitive for most games. But Carolina’s latest loss proved to be anything but competitive. At one point during the blowout loss to the Washington Commanders, the Panthers were down 37-0.
Surprisingly, the coaches did not pull Dalton at that point. The decision suggested the staff is not interested in going back to Young this season. Young did eventually see some action, albeit limited. He finished the game with two pass attempts for -4 yards.
