Predominantly Orange Week 13 NFL Power Rankings
By Steven Kriz
17. Baltimore Ravens (20)
The Ravens need to keep on winning if they have plans to return to the postseason. The week 16 match up with the Steelers is certainly circled on their calendar as the biggest game remaining.
The best news for the Ravens is they have already beaten the Steelers once—another win and the tiebreaker would go to them.
18. New Orleans Saints (24)
When the Saints offense is humming, it is really humming. Rookie receiver Michael Thomas is quickly becoming Drew Brees’ favorite target, and the Saints have remained in the race for the NFC South, although they have a lot of work to do.
If they play on offense the way they did Sunday, they will be hard to beat.
19. Arizona Cardinals (14)
The Cardinals look like a team that is going to need to reload on offense in the coming years. Carson Palmer is not playing up to the level he performed at a year ago. Their best receiver is aging as well.
It may be time to go and get a young quarterback, and build around David Johnson.
20. Buffalo Bills (23)
The Bills aren’t going away in the AFC, and just got back their best receiver in Sammy Watkins. Rex Ryan has his team playing well, and they will be making a strong push to get into the playoffs for the first time this millennium.
