SneakerReporter NFL Power Rankings: 9/12

SneakerReporter NFL Power Rankings: 9/12

by | Sep 13, 2019 | Featured, NFL

Each week, SneakerReporter will put out their power rankings of all 32 NFL teams. 

With Week 2 kicking off tonight (Carolina Panthers vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 8:20 PM EST on NBC) it’s time to unveil where each team sits.

The fun begins below and be sure to check back each Thursday to track how far up or down your favorite team moves from week-to-week. 

1. New England Patriots 1-0 (LW: 1)

On the field, there’s zero drama, off the field they welcome the biggest news story of the season into their team when they signed Antonio Brown, buckle up for some fun 

2. Kansas City Chiefs 1-0 (LW: 2) 

The Jacksonville Jaguars weren’t as big of a test as initially believed and the team lost WR Tyreek Hill; no worries just insert Sammy Watkins and rinse, wash, and repeat. 

3. New Orleans Saints 1-0 (LW: 3)

They won the game of the week in their comeback win over the Houston Texans and if they keep playing as they did in the second half, then watch out. 

4. Baltimore Ravens 1-0 (LW: 8)

Is this an overreaction to one game against a team actively trying to lose, maybe, but Lamar Jackson looked MVP-caliber good to start the season. 

5. Los Angeles Rams 1-0 (LW:4)

It seems that the Rams are fully committed to giving Todd Gurley a limited role at the beginning of the season but he’s still good enough to carry this team. 

6. Dallas Cowboys 1-0 (LW: 9)

Dallas flatly embarrassed the New York Giants in their season opener and look the part of a future Super Bowl Champion. 

7. Green Bay Packers 1-0 (LW: 11)

Matt LaFleur’s offense didn’t have the greatest debut, instead, it was the revamped Packers defense that stole the show. 

8. Minnesota Vikings 1-0 (LW:13)

Kirk Cousins wasn’t even needed in last week’s dismantling of the Atlanta Falcons, a healthy Dalvin Cook goes (and can run) a long way. 

9. Philadelphia Eagles 1-0 (LW: 5)

Carson Wentz and his array of weapons looked mediocre at best in their first game against the lowly Washington Redskins, all eyes will be on them as they travel to Atlanta for Sunday Night Football. 

10. Chicago Bears 0-1 (LW: 6)

The Monsters of the Midway haven’t lost a step but their offense did and Matt Nagy is going to get that corrected soon.

11. Houston Texans 0-1 (LW: 10)

Deshaun Watson might be surrounded by some new faces but he’s still taking a beating in the pocket and if Houston can’t keep him upright there will be a lot of wasted talent on this roster. 

12. Cleveland Browns 0-1 (LW: 7)

Browns gonna Browns; a very disappointing first week leads into a primetime spotlight on Monday Night Football—luckily the New York Jets will be beaten up heading into the game. 

13. Los Angeles Chargers 1-0 (LW: 12)

“Melvin Gordon who?” – Austin Ekeler

14. Tennessee Titans 1-0 (LW: 24)

The biggest riser this week made a statement in their opening victory against the Cleveland Browns. 

15. Pittsburgh Steelers 0-1 (LW: 14)

Usually losing by 30 is a reason to take a nose dive down Rankings like these but when the team you lost to is the juggernaut that is the New England Patriots there isn’t much movement required. 

16. Carolina Panthers 0-1 (LW: 19)

This is Christian McCaffrey’s team now and we all need to accept that. 

17. Indianapolis Colts 0-1 (LW: 20)

Jacoby Brissett looked pretty, pretty, pretty good—just saying. 

18. Seattle Seahawks 1-0 (LW: 17)

An unimpressive, close home win over the Cincinnati Bengals isn’t much to cheer about. 

19. New York Jets 0-1 (LW: 15)

Allowing the Buffalo Bills to score 17 unanswered points isn’t great but losing the franchise quarterback to mononucleosis is worse. 

20. Atlanta Falcons 0-1 (LW: 16)

Maybe that was the lowest moment for the Falcons and things will only get better from here. 

 

21. Jacksonville Jaguars 0-1 (LW: 18)

Nick Foles is done for most of the season but Gardner Minshew still is an upgrade over Blake Bortles. 

 

22. Oakland Raiders 1-0 (LW: 21)

The team came out energized after Antonio Brown put their collective backs to the wall but this still isn’t a good team. 

 

23. San Francisco 49ers 1-0 (LW: 22)

15 MORE GAMES JIMMY GAROPPOLO, YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!

 

24. Buffalo Bills 1-0 (LW: 23)

Their comeback victory showed fortitude but besides the final score, there weren’t many positives for the Buffalo Bills in Week 1. 

 

25. Cincinnati Bengals 0-1 (LW: 27)

John Ross III playing like a top 10 pick would be HUGE for his group. 

 

t26. Arizona Cardinals 0-0-1 (LW: 26)

Kyler Murray and Kliff Kingsbury looked like failures for three quarters but when the lights were the brightest they both found a rhythm to pull out a tie. 

 

t26. Detroit Lions 0-0-1 (LW: 29)

Matt Patricia ditched the ATV and the Detroit Lions ditched an easy win in the desert. 

 

28. Tampa Bay Buccaneers 0-1 (LW: 28)

Time is running out quickly on the Jameis Winston experience. 

 

29. Washington Redskins 0-1 (LW: 32)

My initial assessment of this team was wrong they are readily better than the Miami Dolphins. 

 

30. Denver Broncos 0-1 (LW: 25)

Not a great start for Vic Fangio and the Denver Broncos.

 

31. New York Giants 0-1 (LW: 30)

Just let Daniel Jones and Saquon Barkley do whatever they want for the rest of the year. 

 

32. Miami Dolphins 0-1 (LW: 31)

They’re REALLY tanking.

Primetime Preview: Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Carolina Panthers

Primetime Preview: Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Carolina Panthers

Featured

by | Sep 12, 2019 | Featured, NFL

As the division opponents head into week two trying to rebound from a loss, this weeks edition of TNF should be jam packed with exciting plays. Thursday night is tough for the players, as the short week of rehab gives them very little time to recover. This is heightened in the beginning of the season as players are still adjusting to regular season play. 

There is no way to sugarcoat the performance of the Buccaneers in week 1. The Bucs and 49ers combined for some of the worst 3 quarters of NFL football fans have ever seen. They ended up taking the loss 31-17, and new HC Bruce Arians has some adjustments to make. Jameis Winston looked defeated as he tossed two pick 6’s and couldn’t find a rhythm. 

It will be interesting to see how the Bucs respond on both offense and defense. Coming into the season, all eyes were on the passing game with Winston and the plethora of weapons on the outside. With two legitimate options at receiver and a young star TE, the Bucs were just missing a running back. 2nd year RB Ronald Jones II looked good in week 1, putting up 75 yards on 13 carries. 

On paper, the Bucs offense looks lethal. They also have plenty of solid young defenders both in the linebacking core and defensive line. If Winston and Arians can get on the same page calling plays, the Bucs could make some noise. Winston has just been too inconsistent to be overly optimistic.

Although Carolina also suffered a week 1 defeat courtesy of the LA Rams, Panthers’ fans should still have hope. Cam Newton had a very rough start, but Tampa Bay doesn’t deploy that high caliber of a defensive unit. Another good sign for the Panthers is their stud of a running back. Christian McCaffrey absolutely balled out in week 1, putting up over 200 yards and 2 TDs. 

McCaffrey is truly one of the most underappreciated players in the league. His consistency at such a high volume is remarkable. Production like his is something you only see on the top offenses, and that doesn’t get talked about enough. McCaffrey was our pick for OPOY here at SneakerReporter, so don’t be surprised to see another huge performance here in week 2. 

The NFC South is one of the most competitive divisions in the whole NFL. Every week matters for these teams, especially the Buccaneers and Panthers who are trying to fight for a wild card spot.

BREAKING NEWS: Derrius Guice Undergoes Surgery to Repair Torn Meniscus

BREAKING NEWS: Derrius Guice Undergoes Surgery to Repair Torn Meniscus

Featured

by | Sep 12, 2019 | Featured, NFL

Last season, Washington Redskins rookie running back Derrius Guice tore his ACL during the preseason. It put a halt on what looked like a promising start to the former LSU player.

After a yearlong rehab and the team taking it lightly this past preseason, big things were expected out of him now that he was on the field and healthy.

In Week 1 against the Philadelphia Eagles Guice totaled  18 yards on 10 carries. Hardly the start to a breakout campaign in his second season but there were glimpses of promise as the Redskins hung tough for the duration of the game.

The Eagles also have one of the toughest run defenses so it is natural that Guice wouldn’t have a huge game in the opener.

Yet, following the game word came out that Guice was experiencing some issues with his left knee—he tore the ACL in his right knee—and now it has been confirmed that he suffered a torn meniscus.

Guice underwent surgery this morning, which was performed by Dr. James Andrews and he will be sidelined indefinitely.
