1. Eagles (last week No. 1; 2-0): They’re finding ways to win, like the Chiefs used to.<\/p>\n
2. Bills (No. 2; 2-0): It’s gonna take more than a busted nose to slow Josh Allen down.<\/p>\n
3. Packers (No. 3; 2-0): They may not lose one for a while.<\/p>\n

4. Ravens (No. 4; 1-1): It’s a lot easier to hold a lead against the Browns than the Bills.<\/p>\n
5. Chargers (No. 6; 2-0): Jim Harbaugh had a special birthday cake for Pete Carroll.<\/p>\n
6. Buccaneers (No. 8; 2-0): Yes, any team could have signed Baker Mayfield. Twice.<\/p>\n
7. Rams (No. 10; 2-0): With a return to Philly on deck, the Rams get a golden opportunity to do what they almost did in the divisional round.<\/p>\n
8. Commanders (No. 5; 1-1): Jayden Daniels took way too many hits at Lambeau Field.<\/p>\n
9. Lions (No. 11; 1-1): Maybe the Lions should treat every game like a “must” win.<\/p>\n
10. Chiefs (No. 7; 0-2): The Chiefs need to reload around Patrick Mahomes. Or maybe rebuild.<\/p>\n

11. Broncos (No. 9; 1-1): Another year, another field-goal blunder costs the Broncos a win.<\/p>\n
12. 49ers (No. 16; 2-0): Mac Jones might play his way into another chance to be a starter.<\/p>\n
13. Colts (No. 17; 2-0): They’re all alone in first place in the AFC South. Just like no one expected.<\/p>\n
14. Bengals (No. 14; 2-0): Jake Browning’s job is a lot easier with Ja’Marr Chase on the team.<\/p>\n
15. Texans (No. 13; 0-2): Can’t be an elite team until you can beat elite teams.<\/p>\n
16. Seahawks (No. 19; 1-1): The Seahawks out-Steelered the Steelers.<\/p>\n
17. Steelers (No. 15; 1-1): They can’t lose games they should win, not with so many games on the schedule they should lose.<\/p>\n
