1. Eagles (9-1, last week’s No. 1): “There will be no rematch.”
2. 49ers (7-3, No. 2): Purdy perfect.
3. Ravens (8-3, v. 5): It may be Isaiah’s time.
4. Lions (8-2, No. 4): Defense is still a problem.
5. Chiefs (7-3, No. 3): To paraphrase a famous quote, Patrick Mahomes can’t throw and catch the ball.
6. Dolphins (7-3, No. 6): No. 1 remains out of reach.
7. Jaguars (7-3, No. 7): Houston, bye.
8. Cowboys (7-3, No. 8): The Eagles really needed to lose last night.
9. Browns (7-3, No. 9): The AFC elite should take the Browns seriously.
10. Texans (6-4, No. 13): DeMeco Ryans is the coach of the year.
11. Seahawks (6-4, No. 10): 49ers + Cowboys + 49ers + Eagles probably equals five-game losing streak.
12. Vikings (6-4, No. 12): They might be better than most teams. But they have to get out ahead of them.
13. Bills (6-5, No. 16): Beating the Jets at home is one thing. Beating the Eagles in Philly will be another.
14. Steelers (6-4, No. 11): The wheels are coming off.
15. Broncos (5-5, No. 18): The prospect of Sean Peyton taking the playing field suddenly isn’t so crazy.
16. Colts (5-5, No. 15): Can they string some wins together?
17. Bengals (5-5, No. 14): No Burrows? Big problem.
18. Saints (5-5, No. 19): Eagles or Cowboys come to the Superdome in the wild card round.
19. Packers (4-6, No. 26): For the first time in a long time, the Packers will be a potential punching bag in a Thanksgiving Day game in Detroit.
20. Rams (4-6, No. 27): “We knocked Seattle out of the playoffs” may be the lasting memory of the 2023 Rams.
21. Falcons (4-6, No. 21): If this isn’t playing musical chairs at quarterback, what is?
22. Raiders (5-6, No. 20): Not exploding in Miami is more proof of Antonio Pierce.
23. Buccaneers (4-6, No. 22): Time is running out.
24. Chargers (4-6, No. 17): Time is running out.
25. Jets (4-6, No. 23): Time out.
26. Titans (3-7, No. 24): The question isn’t whether the Titans should move on from Mike Varabel. The question is whether Mike Vrabel should walk away from the Titans.
27. Giants (3-8, No. 30): Too many to take a shot at a franchise quarterback in the draft.
28. Chiefs (4-7, No. 25): Will Black Friday turn into Black Monday for Ron Rivera?
29. Bears (3-8, No. 28): Justin Fields will give them plenty to think about in the offseason.
30. Cardinals (2-9, No. 29): Kyler Murray is back.
31. Panthers (1-9, No. 31): Soon, no coach in their right mind would want to work for David Tepper.
32. Patriots (2-8, No. 32): Late-season destroyer is a role this team hasn’t played in a long, long time.
