This week’s NFL power rankings continue from last week’s where things are broken down into separate groups of contenders and pretenders. We now have six teams that have secured their spots in the playoffs while there are now 14 teams that have been eliminated from postseason play.
Things are starting to shift from “who” is making the playoffs to “where” each team will end up seeded. The Broncos haven’t clinched a playoff spot yet and their division is still technically open because of the Chiefs’ second half surge. The Bengals haven’t clinched the AFC North either with Pittsburgh two games back with two to play.
