Dr. Big Mac’s NFL Power Rankings: Wk 1
NFL season has begun that means we get Dr. BigMacs Top 10 Power Rankings. How do we get here? It’s like the secret sauce on a BigMac, I’ll never share the secret to my power rankings.
Honorable mentions- New England Patriots no one thought they would win. Give them a tip of the cap. Green Bay Packers if Jordan love didn’t get hurt they would make my top 10.
10. Buffalo Bills- put up 34 after losing a lot of players and a lot of backlash towards Josh Allen. This defense almost blew the game but the offense stood tall. Can they consistently win games 34-28. No. Will the be playing west coast teams at 1pm every week no, but give the respect where it’s due.
9. Baltimore Ravens- you loss to the chiefs by the tip of your toe. Went in to arrow head and fought the beast and loss but you did look good. 9 may be way to low for this team but you’re 0-1 with room to grow. Also, if they don’t protect Lamar he will die.
8. New Orleans Saints- you beat a team 47-10 week 1 it gets you on my Power Rankings board. The only problem is you played the Carolina Panthers who are complete dog shit and have the absolute worst qb in the league. But respect for throwing up 47
7. Miami Dolphins- they squeezed out a win with controversy in the morning with Tyreek Hill going up Jacksonville who on paper should be better than what they showed Sunday. The dolphins defense won them that game and if the offense keeps getting better the dolphins could climb up this board.
6. Dallas Cowboys- are they this good or is the Browns that bad? That’s why the cowboys will sit outside my top 5. It was a great win on the road in Cleveland. Dak got paid CeeDee got paid all is well in Jerry’s world but play a better team and I’ll put you in my top 5.
5. Houston Texans- are they a flash in the pan? Last year CJ Stroud got rookie of the year honors has teams figured him out? He was sacked 4 times in the 2 point win over the colts. I do believe they are the 2nd best team in the AFC.
4. Detroit Lions- won an overtime game against the Rams. Goff found a new favorite target in Jameson Williams. Need to see more out of this offense to move them up the board.
3. Philadelphia Eagles- I love what they did in the offseason getting Saquan Barkley. Was it because it was the first game for Jalen and that’s why he looked a little lost at times. He was sacked twice and had 2 interceptions but if healthy this team should be in the final 4 at the end.
2. San Francisco 49ers- the defending NFC champs without Christian McCaffrey took on a Jets team that a lot of analysts said would be the AFC champs this year. The 49ers d shut down Rodgers and the offense didn’t skip a beat with Jordan Mason at running back.
1. Kansas City Chiefs- was it a powerful performance? No, but to start the season and pull out a win against a team that was in the AFC championship last year with you. Chiefs stay atop. They are the measuring stick now in the NFL.
