Following their big 38-6 victory over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, the Denver Broncos are now No. 13 in Nate Davis’ latest NFL power rankings for USA TODAY Sports. That’s up three spots from their No. 16 rank last week.
Here is Davis’ commentary on Denver following Sunday’s win:
Perhaps the AFC version of the Vikes, the Broncos went 4-0 against the NFC South and outscored those teams by an average of 22 points.
After sweeping the NFC South, attention now turns to the AFC West, where the Broncos have three games remaining.
Elsewhere in the division, the Kansas City Chiefs are ranked No. 4, the Los Angeles Chargers are ranked No. 11 and the Las Vegas Raiders are ranked No. 27. The Broncos will host the Raiders at Empower Field at Mile High in Week 12.
The Detroit Lions are ranked No. 1 and the Jacksonville Jaguars are ranked No. 32 (last). To view the complete NFL power rankings following Week 11, visit USATODAY.com.
