NFL Power Rankings Week 12
10. Browns (7-4) Browns have one of the top defenses in the league. Their defense has been so good that it has held their team together through adversity. They lost to the Broncos, which is why they are number ten. Even then, the Broncos had to knock the second-string QB out of the game. I don't think the Browns are done yet, and they are certainly playing like they didn't hear no bell.

NFL Power Rankings Week 11
10. Texans (6-4) The Texans are making their debut on the power rankings. This is the first time I have ever ranked the Texans in the top ten, but they earned it. CJ Stroud is turning the Texans around. He's what would happen if you mixed Jalen Hurts and Joe Burrow. The Texans have taken out top teams and could be the AFC South's champions. Demeco Ryans has improved the defense, and CJ Stroud and the Texan's receivers have been a revelation on offense. Plus, the team has taken the same heart and determination they showed during Love's era and carried over to this one but with better talent. It's an exciting time for Texan fans because everything is on the table for this team.

NFL Power Rankings Week 10
10. Dolphins (6-3) I like the Dolphins. I have always believed in Tua. I believe in the coach, and everyone believes in these weapons. BUT I have to keep it real and be objective. The Dolphins haven't won the big games, and until they prove they can do it, I won't rank them like they have. Also, a lot of the teams ahead of the Dolphins have proven they can play physically, and the Dolphins haven't.

NFL Power Rankings Week 9
10. Dolphins (6-3) The Dolphins had a really disappointing game against the Chiefs. Tyreek talked a lot of crap, and the Dolphins couldn't back any of it up. The Dolphins showed they were resilient in the second half but didn't finish the job. Right now, it looks like the Dolphins don't have that dawg in them. They have lost all their biggest games and aren't physical enough. I'm downgrading the Dolphins until they prove they can win a big game against one of the top teams in the NFL.

10. Cowboys (5-2) The Cowboys are coming off two great victories, and it looks like they are going in the right direction. The big test now is whether Dallas can take this level of play to the elite teams. But despite their resurgence, they still have a really bad loss to the 49ers, so they remain under them.

Coven Court
Ligatus Obligatus Augustinha! "Welcome to the Augustingha Coven, Desiree," said Victoria. Desiree couldn't believe she had just joined a coven. It felt strange to say even in her head, but even stranger was how right it felt. Desiree looked at Victoria, who stood at the head of the circle of hooded witches with her pointed hat, dark hair, and striking pale skin. The room remained dark except for the blight spotlight on Desiree.

NFL Power Rankings
10. Browns The Browns were a top 5 team in week four but have since disappeared from the Power Rankings. Well, they are back, baby. The Browns just took out the number one team in the NFL with their backup backup QB. The Brown's defense has looked good all year, but this was truly a statement game. It's true that CMC and Debo went down, and Trent was also injured. But CMC, for instance, played most of the game, plus the Browns were missing a lineman, a star running back who didn't play three quarters, and their franchise QB. If this is what the Browns can do at rest, imagine what will happen when they activate.

NFL Power Ranking
It's time for the week 5 Power Rankings, but first, let's acknowledge the teams that have fallen out of the top ten. The Cowboys were once atop the Power Rankings, and last week, they were barely holding at one, but now they are off the list completely. The Ravens have been in the top ten all year, usually at number 4, but they had fallen off completely in week five. The Bills just made the power rankings for the first time two weeks ago, and they moved up to the top 5 last week. Now, the Bills have fallen right back off the list.

10. Seahawks The Seahawks make their debut on the Power Rankings at 10. They took a bad loss in week one, but since then, they have competed and played well. They won every other game, and they flat-out embarrassed the Giants. They beat the Giants so badly. Giants fans were leaving Giants stadium early. Daniel Jones played so badly It looks like he should be benched. The Seahawk's offense looked as fluid as ever. We shall see how they do against better opponents, but right now, they are one of the best ten teams in the NFL.

10. Steelers There are a lot of similar 2-1 teams, which made the tenth spot particularly difficult to choose. However, when I measured the Steelers against all the teams that didn't make this list, the Steeler's defense stood out. The Steelers defense is one of the best in the league. It's so good that it would be enough to rip through most teams. In addition to that, the Steelers showed progress on offense. If the Steeler's elite defense can be combined with an above-average offense, then everyone else better watch out.
