FROM 10 TO 1
No. 10 BALTIMORE RAVENS 📉 (Previous Rank: 8)
Baltimore went 2-2 during its season-opening four-game stretch against the AFC East with the two one-score losses that resulted from fourth-quarter collapses.
No. 9 MIAMI DOLPHINS 📉 (Previous Rank: 7)
The Dolphins suffered their first loss of the season to the reigning AFC Champion Bengals on Thursday night, but may have incurred an even greater loss with the Tua Tagovailoa concussion saga.
No. 8 MINNESOTA VIKINGS 📈 (Previous Rank: NR)
Kirk Cousins and the Vikings are 3-1, including a convincing win over Green Bay, with the lone loss coming against the piping hot Eagles.
No. 7 TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS 📉️ (Previous Rank: 6)
Tom Brady accounted for his best statistical performance of the season thus far, but the Bucs were unable to keep pace with the Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes-powered offense on Sunday Night Football.
No. 6 LOS ANGELES RAMS 📉️ (Previous Rank: 4)
The Rams’ past struggles against the 49ers and Jimmy Garoppolo continued while San Francisco’s stiff defense held Sean McVay’s team out of the end zone on Monday night.
No. 5 SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS 📈 (Previous Rank: 9)
The 49ers’ defense was relentless against the defending Super Bowl champions on Monday night and the offense showed signs of life with Jimmy G at the controls.
No. 4 GREEN BAY PACKERS 📈 (Previous Rank: 5)
Green Bay pulled out a second straight ugly victory as rookie receiver Romeo Doubs continued his emergence. The Packers have won three games in a row after the season-opening setback at Minnesota.
No. 3 PHILADELPHIA EAGLES ↔️ (Previous Rank: 3)
Philadelphia kept its undefeated record intact by holding off the pesky Jaguars at home.
No. 2 KANSAS CITY CHIEFS ↔️ (Previous Rank: 2)
Spreading the rock around, Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs enjoyed a “40 burger” against Tampa Bay in primetime.
No. 1 BUFFALO BILLS ↔️ (Previous Rank: 1)
Josh Allen and the injury-ravaged Bills overcame a 20-3 deficit on the road, stunning MVP candidate Lamar Jackson and the Ravens.
