Jerry McDonald’s NFL Power Rankings: Brees could be sentimental pick for MVP in close race

How NFL teams rank heading in to the final week of the regular season:

1. New Orleans (13-2)

Take down Carolina and Drew Brees could be pick for his first-ever MVP award. Still think he’s trailing Pat Mahomes, but sentiment could carry the day in a close race.

Last week: 1 Next: Carolina

2. L.A. Rams (12-3)

Aaron Donald is now up to 19 1/2 sacks. Could be the first interior rusher to break 20 (since sacks were official stat in 1982) but be advised, still won’t win MVP.
