Power Ranking: How the Green Bay Packers have been ranked in the NFL will shock you…

Dallas proved its bona fides in Sunday’s dominant win over Philadelphia, while the Ravens asserted themselves as the AFC’s team to beat.

Welcome to the Power Rankings. Kadarius Toney was most certainly offsides. And while I don’t think that mistake is an indictment of Toney the human (so please leave the guy alone), I do think it’s kind of ridiculous that we fight about something so innocent. A good fan base should be able to accept the fact that, if your player is so offsides that he is physically blocking the backside official from seeing the placement of the ball, he’s going to get flagged for it.

I think that an official should help a guy if the receiver is straddling a centimeter in the wrong direction, provided that the official has concluded all of their other pre-snap responsibilities, including ensuring that there are only 11 players on the field (you try counting that quickly on the ground at Arrowhead during a close-game situation). An official saw Toney lined up the way that he was. It was probably more distracting than anything else. Like, surely this person is going to back up at some point, no? It’s like a clerk at the Department of Motor Vehicles watching someone loiter ahead of the yellow “stand here” tape. Who does that?

Anyway, please don’t let that stop the Chiefs from trying more laterals.

 

I have taken pleasure in the somewhat overt arrogance displayed by the 49ers during their current run. On Sunday, I noticed that Nick Bosa leaped up fast to determine if his tackle of the quarterback qualified as a sack. He immediately followed up with his coaches to get their confirmation. And then, after a lengthy Samuel gain put the 49ers in a short-yardage scenario, Kyle Shanahan unmistakably called the end-around touchdown for Deebo Samuel. And nobody is able to stop it!

 

This was another one of those situations where the Ravens had to take every tool out of the Swiss army knife. I think the approach leads us to the conclusion that this is the NFL’s deepest team, except for the 49ers and Eagles. Not only did Tyler Wallace, the backup punt returner, win the game in overtime, but Isaiah Likely, the backup tight end, was also very good. We got a little bit of everything from Lamar’s past and present in this game. And yet another outstanding performance by Justin Madubuike, a player who I believe will dominate the postseason.

 

Yes, even though Dallas’s victory on Sunday night was crucial, I still, for the time being, think the Eagles are slightly superior to the Cowboys. Although I’m not exactly sure why, it seems obvious that Jalen Hurts isn’t seeing the pitch as much as he did the previous season. Even so, Philadelphia remains a very dangerous club, even if this is their worst season. A similar attrition period befell the Eagles the previous season, when nearly every individual at the Super Bowl attributed the team’s two-game losing streak before and after Christmas to a successful postseason run.

The fact that Buffalo played a strong game against one of their stronger opponents this year got lost in the chaos surrounding Toney’s offside. They did it at a crucial juncture, when Sean McDermott was in dire need of a win—especially against a coach like Andy Reid, who has a history of frustrating him. An end-of-season run would indicate that McDermott still has some influence over the locker room, but I’m not sure what an end-of-season run would mean to me. I still believe that Buffalo has to completely revamp their setup if they hope to get the most out of Josh Allen. That is not insignificant.

 

Right now, what more are we able to say? I was ecstatic that my preseason predictions—that the Broncos would be awful and that Sean Payton would have an egg on his face after trashing the previous administration—seemed to have come true. They have defeated the Lions this week and have won six of their previous seven games. They also have another game coming up against the struggling Chargers.

 

 

Jake Browning has been among the top seven passers in the NFL this week in terms of total yards passed and has demonstrated lightning-fast release times in each of his first two starts. Browning isn’t a clumsy player, so with this complementary roster, I think we may once again start to imagine some sort of playoff berth. He plays quickly and decisively. In the Bengals’ last two games, he has also recorded a good completion percentage above projections.

State of the 2021 Los Angeles Chargers: Can Brandon Staley lift talented roster into NFL playoffs?

 

Alright. I am formally and permanently out of the Charger fandom after toeing the line for the past month.In the end, I believe that there were several factors that contributed to the problems surrounding Brandon Staley’s stay. No matter who is on the roster, the Chargers are a difficult club to coach. These problems with consistency and susceptibility to injuries exist for a reason and predate Staley’s leadership. Staley selected two offensive coordinators poorly. The second issue is tricky since, yes, Justin Herbert did throw for over 5,000 yards during Joe Lombardi’s tenure. However, since Shane Steichen’s departure, the team’s franchise player hasn’t been effectively utilised by a coordinator.
