The miracles follow one another at the same time as the victories for Kansas City. The Chiefs also take advantage of the Bills' defeat to take a two-win lead in the AFC.
In the other conference, the Lions took the Packers out of the race while the Eagles and the Vikings did not let them go.
As a reminder, this hierarchy is not only based on the number of successes, but also on current form. If two teams are close and haven't played each other recently, one wonders which one would win if the match were played today. Beating the strongest is not going to propel you to the top in the blink of an eye. Losing to one of the dunces won't plunge you into the abyss either. One can win and tumble, bow and climb. This is the merciless law of Power Ranking…
1. Detroit Lions (12-1)
Dan Campbell has something in common with Randy Marsh. A risk-taking that pays off which eliminates the Packers from the race for the NFC North.
Week 14: Receiving the Bills
2. Philadelphia Eagles (11-2) +1
Facing the eye-catching Panthers, Philadelphia provides the essentials and Saquon Barkley becomes the franchise's best runner over a season.
Week 14: Steelers reception
3. Kansas City Chiefs (12-1) +1
At this level of success it is no longer luck, it's black magic. A victory which allows the Chiefs to win their division for the ninth consecutive time.
Week 14: trip to the Browns
4. Minnesota Vikings (11-2) +1
The Vikings have in Sam Darnold the quarterback they dreamed of having with Kirk Cousins and for much less money.
Week 14: Bears reception
5. Buffalo Bills (10-3) -3
Josh Allen continues to break records, but it wasn't enough in Los Angeles. A defeat, combined with the victory of the Chiefs, which risks costing them first place in the conference.
Week 14: trip to the Lions
6. Pittsburgh Steelers (10-3) +1
This time, the Steelers are not surprised by the Browns. A vital victory before a Dantesque series of Eagles, Ravens and Chiefs.
Week 14: trip to the Eagles
7. Green Bay Packers (9-4) -1
With this second defeat against Detroit, Green Bay will have to go through the wild cards and most likely play all of its playoff games away.
Week 14: trip to the Seahawks
8. Seattle Seahawks (8-5) +2
No Kenneth Walker, no problem. The Seahawks have Charbonnet to defeat the Cardinals and are taking off in the NFC West where only the Rams seem able to get them.
Week 14: Packers reception
9. Baltimore Ravens (8-5) -1
The Ravens are off this week. After two defeats in the last three games, Baltimore must use this break to recharge the batteries.
Week 14: trip to the Giants
10. Los Angeles Chargers (8-5) -1
Muzzled in the first half against the Chiefs, the Chargers came close to bringing down the reigning champions.
Week 14: reception of the Buccaneers
11. Denver Broncos (8-5)
Week of rest for the Broncos which interrupts a series of three victories.
Week 14: reception of the Colts
12. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (7-6) +2
The Buccaneers take advantage of a more affordable schedule and the bankruptcy of the Falcons to regain first place in the NFC South.
Week 14: trip to the Chargers
13. Washington Commanders (8-5) -1
Washington at rest before launching its final sprint in the race for the playoffs.
Week 14: trip to the Saints
14. Los Angeles Rams (7-6) +2
The Bills defense did not find the solution to counter Puka Nacua and the Rams took advantage of this to continue to put pressure on the Seahawks.
Week 14: trip to the 49ers
15. Houston Texans (8-5) -2
The Texans must take advantage of this week of rest to get their heads back on track.
Week 14: Dolphins reception
16. Miami Dolphins (6-7) +1
With a completely muzzled ground game, the Dolphins were very scared and needed overtime to overcome the Jets.
Week 14: trip to the Texans
17. San Francisco 49ers (6-7) +3
The 49ers haven't given up yet! Against the Bears, the San Francisco attack found some bite and the Californian franchise has the opportunity, Thursday against the Rams, to relaunch its season.
Week 14: Rams reception
18. Arizona Cardinals (6-7) -3
Since their return from the bye week, the Cardinals have not been able to do so. Three consecutive defeats, including two against the main division rival, which will deprive Arizona of the playoffs.
Week 14: Patriots reception
19. Cincinnati Bengals (5-8) +2
Since Week 3, when the Bengals defense has given up fewer than 34 points, Cincinnati has won.
Week 14: trip to the Titans
20. Indianapolis Colts (6-7) -1
Week of rest before a decisive trip to Denver. The Colts no longer have the right to make mistakes if they still want to believe in the playoffs.
Week 14: trip to the Broncos
21. Atlanta Falcons (6-7) -3
Kirk Cousins hasn't forgotten where he came from. The Falcons quarterback continues to throw balls into the Vikings' hands and that's beautiful.
Week 14: trip to the Raiders
22. New Orleans Saints (5-8) +2
Painful victory for the Saints in New York, who will probably have to do without their starting quarterback until the end of the season.
Week 14: receiving Commanders
23. Dallas Cowboys (5-8) -1
Not knowing the rules of a sport you practiceit's annoying.
Week 14: trip to the Panthers
24. Chicago Bears (4-9) -1
At least this time there was no heartbreaking defeat at the end of the match for their supporters.
Week 14: trip to the Vikings
25. Carolina Panthers (3-10) +1
The Panthers were literally two fingers to create the feat in Philadelphia. After making Kansas City doubt, Bryce Young continues to show the Panthers that they do not need to look at the quarterbacks available in the next draft.
Week 14: Cowboys reception
26. Cleveland Browns (3-10) -1
Two touchdowns, two interceptions: with Jameis Winston, we are never disappointed, we got what we ordered.
Week 14: reception of the Chiefs
27. New York Jets (3-10)
The Jets were not far from victory in Miami and will seek, after overtime, a fourteenth consecutive season without playoffs.
Week 14: trip to the Jaguars
28. Jacksonville Jaguars (3-10) +3
Mac Jones is doing everything to offer the first choice of the next draft to the Jaguars, but Tank Bigsby has decided otherwise.
Week 14: Jets reception
29. New England Patriots (3-10) -2
The Patriots are off this week. This is good given the program that awaits them to finish the season. They will cross paths with the Bills twice, as well as the Cardinals and the Chargers.
Week 14: trip to the Cardinals
30. Tennessee Titans (3-10)
This Titans attack, which is not colossal, hit a wall against Jacksonville.
Week 14: Bengals reception
31. Las Vegas Raiders (2-11) -1
Another defeat, another injured quarterback, can't wait for 2025 for the Raiders.
Week 14: Falcons reception
32. New York Giants (2-11)
When we see Drew Lock play, we say to ourselves that the Giants could have waited until the end of the season to fire Daniel Jones.
Week 14: Ravens reception
