NFL power rankings, Week 14: Eagles, Cowboys stay put
The NFL power rankings are status quo in the NFC, with the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys atop the list.
16. Chicago Bears (LW: 16)
The Bears have a future with quarterback Justin Fields, but the rest of the team needs to be thrown out.
15. Los Angeles Rams (LW: 15)
This is the worst defense of a Super Bowl we’ve ever seen. It’s actually impressive to be this horrific.
14. Carolina Panthers (LW: 14)
Carolina comes out of its bye week to travel across the country for a date with the Seahawks. Not easy.
13. New Orleans Saints (LW: 13)
How the hell did the Saints lose that game? Absolutely crushing.
12. Arizona Cardinals (LW: 11)
Arizona is 4-8 coming out of its bye, and now get to deal with a desperate Bill Belichick on Monday night.

11. Atlanta Falcons (LW: 9)
Atlanta has had so many opportunities to make the NFC South its own, but the Falcons — as they have for years — invent new ways to lose each week.
10. Detroit Lions (LW: 12)
The Lions are a plucky team that is really making a nice run. Too late for a playoff push?
9. Green Bay Packers (LW: 10)
The Packers are pretty much home for winter, but they continue to own the Bears.
8. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (LW: 8)
Somehow, the Buccaneers beat the Saints and are now 6-6 in the horrific NFC South.
7. New York Giants (LW: 7)
The Giants are 0-2-1 in their last three games, and now welcome in the Eagles before traveling to take on the Commanders. Huge stretch.
6. Washington Commanders (LW: 6)
After tying the Giants, Washington gets to rest before seeing Big Blue again, but this time in the nation’s capital.

5. Seattle Seahawks (LW: 5)
Seattle found a way to handle the Rams, and now get the Panthers coming into Seattle with a chance to get to 8-5.
4. San Francisco 49ers (LW: 4)
Brock Purdy or Jimmy Garoppolo, the Niners have one of the league’s best rosters and they showed their strength by pummeling the Miami Dolphins.
3. Minnesota Vikings (LW: 3)
Minnesota doesn’t overwhelm many teams, but the Vikings are 10-2 and showing why they’re easing into the NFC North crown.
2. Dallas Cowboys (LW: 2)
Dallas looked great once again. The defense is rolling with Defensive Player of the Year candidate Micah Parsons, and the offense is scoring plenty.
1. Philadelphia Eagles (LW: 1)
At 11-1 and after a demolition of the Tennessee Titans, the Eagles remain the top team in the NFC.
