Welcome to the Week Eleven, 2023 JetNation NFL Power Rankings. As the season progresses, this week’s rankings highlight the league’s top contenders and rising stars. The Philadelphia Eagles continue to reign supreme, while teams such as the Kansas City Chiefs and Dallas Cowboys are hot on their tail. Keep an eye out for under-the-radar performers such as the Detroit Lions, who are quietly rising through the ranks. Let’s take a look at the rankings to see where your favorite team stands in the race to the top.
Last Week: 1 Philadelphia Eagles (8-1)
On Monday night, the Eagles travel to Kansas City to face the Chiefs. This is the game of the year so far, and the Eagles have a chance to avenge their Super Bowl loss.
Last Week: 2 Kansas City Chiefs (7-2)
The Chiefs have a lot to prove in the rematch of Super Bowl LVII on Monday night. Many believe the team has deteriorated since hoisting the Lombardi trophy in January. I believe we will witness Kansas City’s best game.
The Dallas Cowboys (6-3) are third.
4 last week
The Cowboys dominated the Giants. The Cowboys have shown that they can beat the league’s worst teams. They must find a signature victory before anyone will begin to care.
Last Week: 6 Detroit Lions (7-2)
The Lions are back in the spotlight and having a good time. Despite their gaudy record, the Lions make no noise. If they can beat the Bears at home this week, Detroit could be on top of the conference standings.
The Ravens (7-3) are ranked fifth.
Week 3 was the most recent.
The Ravens let the Browns off the hook and lost in heartbreaking fashion on Sunday. Baltimore must recover quickly because they face a desperate Cincinnati Bengals team this week, with division rivals close behind.
Last Week: 8 Miami Dolphins (6-3)
Miami has had a week to reflect on their loss to Kansas City and to hear about their mediocrity. I believe they will vent some of their frustrations this week against the Raiders.
Last Week: 9 San Francisco 49ers (6-3)
On Sunday, the Niners returned some key offensive pieces and slammed the Jaguars all over the field. A strong performance from a desperate team.
Last Week: 8 Cleveland Browns (6-3)
The Browns won a big game on the road in Baltimore. If the Browns can channel their emotion and confidence into their play, the comeback could be a season-changing victory.
Last Week: 5 Jacksonville Jaguars (6-3)
The Jaguars were defeated by the San Francisco 49ers. Jacksonville must find a way to move forward and establish itself as a contender for the AFC title.
Last Week: Unranked Pittsburgh Steelers (6-3)
For those who don’t value defense, the Steelers appear to win with mirrors. Pittsburgh’s previous five opponents have all failed to score more than 20 points. With back-to-back road games in Cleveland and Cincinnati, the Steelers will be able to show everyone how good they are.
Last Week: 20. New York Jets (4-4)
Because the Jets aren’t going to change anything, we shouldn’t expect anything to change. The team will not win unless the defense can limit their opponents to ten points or less. The Bills are capable of scoring more than ten points, so expect another tough game.
