NFL power rankings and predictions peppered the month of August and now September as the regular season finally arrived on Thursday night. Most pundits foresee a fourway NFL supremacy involving the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Kansas City Chiefs, Buffalo Bills, and Green Bay Packers. It’s recency bias – the four squads reached conference championships seven months ago, so naturally they’ll perform at an elite level again. In all likelihood, at least one of those franchises will flounder a bit as it is severely unlikely the AFC and NFC Championship games showcase the exact same four teams from 2020.
