Welcome to Week 10 of the Power Rankings. Like the globe at the end of Pangea, we’ve broken off into separate nations. In this case, two of them: a land of teams that are legitimately fun, interesting and competitive, and another featuring teams who will vanish in our consciousness until the Senior Bowl. That line feels as definitive as it has been in quite some time, ending with the 49ers at No. 15.
Luckily for us, the injection of the Colts, Seahawks and Broncos into the top 10 feels permanent to some degree, and we no longer have to worship the aura of the Lions, Bills, Chiefs and Eagles in perpetuity. We have the premier matchup of the year coming in a week … and it has nothing to do with Patrick Mahomes or Josh Allen.
