NFL power rankings, Week 6: Cowboys-Eagles battle
Our NFL power rankings for Week 6 are here, and for the NFC edition, it’s all about the Dallas Cowboys visiting the Philadelphia Eagles.
16. Washington Commanders (LW: 15)
The Commanders have more talent than this, but they continue to play like a broken team under a broken owner.
15. Carolina Panthers (LW: 14)
Carolina couldn’t be a bigger disaster. Perhaps the firing of Matt Rhule means the Panthers are starting to dig out.
14. Chicago Bears (LW: 16)
The Bears might have their coach in Matt Eberflus, but the roster is a long way from being able to compete.
13. Detroit Lions (LW: 13)
Detroit was supposed to be fun and frisky this year. Hasn’t panned out as it heads into its bye week at 1-4.
12. Seattle Seahawks (LW: 12)
Seattle is scoring points almost as fast as it is giving them up. Geno Smith is one of the great stories in 2022.

11. Atlanta Falcons (LW: 11)
Marcus Mariota might be giving way to rookie Desmond Ritter pretty soon.
10. Arizona Cardinals (LW: 9)
Arizona is 2-3, largely because the offense isn’t doing the job. Surprisingly, the defense is going a decent job despite a poor roster.
9. New Orleans Saints (LW: 10)
The Saints have the talent to be a playoff team, but they need more from the quarterback situation. It’s been a sore spot.
8. Los Angeles Rams (LW: 6)
If the Rams can’t figure out a way to block for Matthew Stafford, it’s going to be a long season. Stafford has been under pressure relentlessly.
7. New York Giants (LW: 8)
The Giants are the shock of the league at 4-1. They have a chance to move up the NFL power rankings with a win this weekend at home against the Baltimore Ravens.

6. Dallas Cowboys (LW: 7)
Dallas has a chance to grab first place in the NFC East against the Eagles on Sunday night. Can they win the game with Cooper Rush again?
5. Green Bay Packers (LW: 2)
Green Bay needs to figure out the offense and start shutting a few teams down with all its defensive talent.
4. San Francisco 49ers (LW: 5)
The Niners’ defense is tremendous. If the offense does its part, look out.
3. Minnesota Vikings (LW: 4)
Minnesota is a weird team, but at 4-1, there’s nothing to be ashamed about. The Vikings are leading the NFC North and should feel good.
2. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (LW: 3)
The Buccaneers have struggled offensively and got a great call to help them beat the Falcons. Still, this is a loaded team waiting to break out.
1. Philadelphia Eagles (LW: 1)
Until the Eagles lose, they stay unrivaled in the top spot.
