Week 6 is finally over, which means a new NFL power ranking. In this case, from now on, there are no undefeated teams, with the defeat of the San Fransisco 49ers and the Philadelphia Eagles. Also, theirs is some intriguing names in this new Top 10.
Before we dive into the Top 3, let's review which team came in tenth place. After their win against the 49ers by 19-17, the Cleveland Browns were positioned tenth in this ranking. Last week, the Browns were out of the Top 10.
In the ninth position are the Baltimore Ravens. After their win against the Tennesee Titans by 24-16, the Ravens have upgraded one place compared to the last ranking. Last week, the Baltimore team was in the tenth position.
The next team in the ranking is the Dallas Cowboys, who have maintained their position despite their 20-17 victory against the LA Chargers. Like last week, the Cowboys are in eighth place.
Bringing a surprise to this ranking, the Buffalo Bills are way behind what people expected. Although they win against the New York Giants by 14-9, the Bills still fall one place in this rank, making them into the seventh position.
