The Ravens are in great shape right now. Faced with Lions who arrived with full confidence, Baltimore (+5) has once again proven that the franchise will have to be counted on this season. Obviously, a positive dynamic which is seen in this Power Ranking with a fourth place in the ranking. For the first time this year, John Harbaugh’s men find themselves in the Top 5.
Special mention also to the Vikings (+7) and the Falcons (+7) for their great comeback. The Buccaneers (-6)the Raiders (-4) and the Cardinals (-4)meanwhile, are plummeting this week.
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…
