Week 7 signals the point in the 2024 season when all 32 teams have played a third of their games. That means we can really start to judge where they stand when forming our NFL Power Rankings. However, with the NFL’s variable nature, power ranking all 32 teams can be a tough task.
Therefore, here at Pro Football Network, we have tried to remove the judgment element from the process by creating our PFN Power Ranking+ (PFN PR+) metric. This metric combines our internal Offense+ and Defense+ metrics, sprinkles in some special teams, and then applies a level of correction for the strength of schedule a team has played.
Those are the top-level ingredients, but there’s much more depth that goes into creating the PFN PR+ numbers.
Is this system perfect? Absolutely not, and as we continue to research, we will continue tinkering with the elements that make up the PFN PR+. That may be at the Offense+ or Defense+ level, or it may be adding a fifth element that our analysis determines should be included in the overall rankings.
As things stand, this is the recipe that we are comfortable with entering Week 8, and accordingly, we have created our first official set of the PFN PR+ for the 2024 season.
1) Detroit Lions (5-1)
The matchup between the Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings delivered everything that we hoped we would see between the two teams atop our PR+ entering the week. The Lions came out on top and did enough to grab the top spot in the rankings entering Week 8.
Detroit has been superb on offense, ranking third this season in Offense+ and having top-five numbers in most major offensive metrics. However, the offense is supported by a top-10 defense and a top-12 special-teams unit, which makes the Lions an impressive all-around package.
After a shaky start to the season, Detroit has settled down impressively and has become a real force. The Lions rank third in expected points added (EPA) per play on offense and 15th on defense. The defense has excelled in the red zone, though, allowing touchdowns on just 46.7% of visits and ranking second in EPA play inside the 20.
2) Minnesota Vikings (5-1)
The Vikings lost their undefeated start to the season against the Lions, but it came right down to the wire as both teams laid their credentials for the NFC and the Super Bowl on the table.
Minnesota slips to second in our PR+ this week but isn’t far behind its division rivals, with strength across the board.
The Vikings have the second-ranked defense in the league by Defense+ in 2024 and the ninth-best special teams. Their slight weakness has been on offense, where they rank 13th, but that has been trending up in recent weeks.
Additionally, the Vikings’ start is even more impressive, given that they have played the third-hardest schedule to this point and had a trip to London thrown in the mix.
Entering Week 8, Minnesota sits first in defensive EPA per play. While the offense is 21st in that statistic, the Vikings have been excellent where it really matters — in the red zone.
When within sight of the opponent’s goal line, the Vikings have scored touchdowns 68.6% of the time and have the seventh-best EPA per play in the red zone.
3) Baltimore Ravens (5-2)
The Baltimore Ravens continued their impressive recovery from an 0-2 start with a victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on the road. It didn’t always look clean, but the Ravens scored 41 points, continuing to lead the NFL in points scored, averaging 31.14 per game.
LAMAR FIVE TOUCHDOWN PASSES.
This one to Derrick Henry!

The best season-long performance in our Offense+ database is from the Green Bay Packers in 2020, who posted a 90.4 as one of just two A+ grades. The Ravens are on pace to not just beat it, but to obliterate it, with a 98.4 Offense+ score through the first seven weeks.
With a maximum obtainable score of 100, Baltimore’s offense is close to being perfect across our range of metrics when comparing statistics back to 2019.
The defense is still a concern, ranking 23rd in Defense+ and 27th in defensive EPA per play. They’ve been relatively good against the run but have struggled in the passing game.
To be a complete Super Bowl contender as the year draws on, the Ravens will need the defense to improve. And although they showed flashes against the Buccaneers, there needs to be more consistent improvement across an entire game.
4) Kansas City Chiefs (6-0)
The sheer will to win that the Kansas City Chiefs display is impressive, and it shows just why they’ve had so much success over the years. This is not just a team built on the brilliance of Patrick Mahomes; it is a complementary football team that is good on both sides of the ball.
The only thing the Chiefs truly excel at this year is their record. They rank seventh in Offense+, 11th in Defense+, and 23rd on special teams. Their best asset on offense is the run game, which is a top-five unit, while the defense is just outside the top 10 against both the run and pass.
Consistency and calm decision-making have been the name of KC’s game, which has helped them to remain unbeaten.
The Chiefs have an intriguing stretch coming up. After the Raiders this week, they will face three other top-10 units (Buccaneers, Broncos, and Bills). If Kansas City remains unbeaten after that, we could start talking about the potential of 17-0.
5) Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4-3)
For the majority of their first three drives on Monday Night Football, the Buccaneers looked like a juggernaut and could easily have been 21-0 up as they marched down the field.
However, a penalty and a drop from Mike Evans as he hit the floor injured stalled Tampa Bay’s progress. From there, things unraveled a little through the middle half of the game. Still, the Buccaneers recovered and made a respectable fight of the game in the end.
After the first seven weeks, Tampa Bay has been excellent on offense, ranking fourth in Offense+. The defense has been a concern, ranking 21st, and it has been exploited by other top offenses like the Ravens and Atlanta Falcons.
Injuries have been an issue on defense through the first two months, but now the injury woes appear to be on the offensive side, with Evans and Chris Godwin both getting hurt.
The Buccaneers will consider themselves to be a touch unlucky to be 4-3 and have done so while facing the hardest schedule to this point. If they can overcome two key injuries offensively, this team is well set to challenge the NFC for a Super Bowl spot. Still, they’ll need improvement from the defense.
6) Buffalo Bills (5-2)
At the end of Week 7, the Buffalo Bills gave us everything we could have asked for. It was not always comfortable, but they ended up winning by over 20 points against the Tennessee Titans.
The Bills continue to handle business against average or below-average teams but have serious question marks against the best teams in the NFL, with their losses coming against the Ravens and Houston Texans.
The Bills’ offense is carrying this team, ranking fourth in both Offense+ and EPA per play. The defense is just league average for the most part, ranking 16th in Defense+, but it has done a good job in the red zone, with the sixth-best touchdown efficiency rate and EPA/play inside the 20-yard line.
To this point, Buffalo has faced the eighth-easiest schedule and has failed both of its toughest tests. In the next two months, matchups against the Seattle Seahawks, Chiefs, San Francisco 49ers, and the Lions will give us a good idea of where the Bills sit among the elite teams in 2024.
7) Denver Broncos (4-3)
It might seem crazy to have the Denver Broncos inside the top 10 of our PR+, but let me explain so you understand why they are ranking so well.
The Broncos are not just the best defensive team in the league; they are 5% better than any other team in Defense+ this season. In our database, only the 2019 New England Patriots had a better Defense+ score than the Broncos.
For some context, the Patriots’ defense carried a middling offense to a 12-4 record and an AFC East crown. They were upended in the first round of the playoffs as the No. 3 seed, but they got there despite the offense being at best average. The problem for the Broncos right now is that their offense is well below that, ranking 26th in Offense+.
The positive news for Denver is that its offense has been much better in four of the last five weeks, finishing with an Offense+ score above 50. Yes, the overall average remains low, but that is based on three awful performances in the first four weeks. If that offensive improvement continues, the Broncos are a potential playoff team in 2024.
8) Washington Commanders (5-2)
The Washington Commanders have been one of the most exciting parts of the 2024 season, with their offense ranking second this year. If the season ended today, this would be the fifth-best offensive performance since the start of the 2019 season. They are tied for first in points scored per game with the Ravens (31.14) and overcame the early loss of Jayden Daniels to sweep aside the Carolina Panthers in Week 7.
Unfortunately, not everything is bright and beautiful for the Commanders, who rank 26th defensively. The performances are trending in the right direction, allowing fewer than 15 points in three of the last four games. Yet, two of them came against two of the worst offenses in the league (Cleveland Browns and Panthers). Additionally, Washington has faced the third-easiest schedule to this point.
Daniels’ health will be key. Things don’t get significantly harder, but Marcus Mariota is likely not going to be the player to lead the Commanders through tight spots. The NFC East is there for the taking in 2024, but Washington’s offense will have to overcome its defensive frailties.
9) San Francisco 49ers (3-4)
The San Francisco 49ers are one of the most frustrating teams to figure out in 2024. They did a lot right against the Chiefs this week but made too many mistakes in key moments.
On offense, injuries are stacking up, with Christian McCaffrey seemingly not ready to return, Brandon Aiyuk now out for the year, and Deebo Samuel Sr. hospitalized with pneumonia.
Yet, despite all of the trials and tribulations they’ve had on offense this year, the 49ers are still ranked sixth on that side of the ball after Week 7. San Francisco’s biggest Achilles heel (no pun intended) has been its red-zone offense, ranking 27th in red-zone conversion rate (45.2%) and 25th in EPA per play inside the 20-yard line.
When you combine that with a league-average defense and the worst special-teams play this year, it’s easy to see why they might have slipped to 3-4. The schedule doesn’t let up much from here, with a number of tough games after their bye week. The 49ers should still be a playoff team, but they’re going to have to fight hard and improve in a number of key areas.
10) Green Bay Packers (5-2)
The 2024 season that the Green Bay Packers have put together has flown under the radar a little, but they’ve been extremely impressive in getting to 5-2. Their two losses are by a combined seven points, and they are now on a three-game winning streak. The Packers have snuck under the radar because they don’t really excel at anything in particular but are average or above in most categories.
Despite starting Malik Willis for two games, the offense ranks 11th in Offense+ and EPA/play. They have particularly excelled at staying out of third-down situations and keeping their quarterback clean in the pocket.
Defensively, Green Bay has been incredible at creating turnovers, with a turnover rate above 20%. That has hidden other flaws a little, so if those turnovers fall away, their 17th-ranked defense could be exposed.
The game against the Lions in Week 9 will be a great litmus test of where the Packers stand. Win that, and suddenly, we could be talking about the NFC North crown and whether a Super Bowl appearance is on the cards.
11) Seattle Seahawks (4-3)
After a three-game losing streak, the Seattle Seahawks put the breaks on their decline with a strong 34-14 victory on the road in Atlanta. The PR+ numbers entering last week pegged the Seahawks as the superior team, but it was tough to tell if that was due to inflated numbers from their first three games. Seattle proved that not to be the case by beating up on a league-average Falcons team.
Seattle ranks 12th in Offense+, 15th in Defense+, and 19th in special teams. The offense has been brilliant inside the red zone, scoring touchdowns 62.5% of the time and having the second-best EPA/play in those situations. The defense wobbled in Weeks 4, 5, and 6 but got back on track against a good Falcons team in Week 7.
Seattle has grabbed first place in the NFC West after seven weeks, but with games against the Bills and 49ers within the next four, we should get a clearer picture of where the Seahawks stand. Win both of those and we’re talking about a legitimate contender in the NFC down the stretch.
12) Philadelphia Eagles (4-2)
This Philadelphia Eagles team is tough to judge because there doesn’t appear to be any rhythm to their game. One week, the offense looks incredible, and the next, they look like they can’t string two plays together competently. The defense has at least been solid, ranking eighth this season and excelling in the red zone, allowing a 38.9% conversion rate.
Philadelphia will largely be comfortable sitting at 4-2. They’ve played the seventh-easiest schedule of 2024, and things don’t get that much harder from here for them. The two games with the Commanders will be key if the Eagles want to get back on top of the NFC East.
13) Pittsburgh Steelers (5-2)
The decision to transition from Justin Fields to Russell Wilson in Week 7 paid off nicely for the Pittsburgh Steelers, as Wilson posted one of the best QB+ grades. Despite the success in terms of results, the Steelers have been a below-average offense this season, and Wilson may be able to provide that spark. If he can, this Pittsburgh team becomes a legitimate AFC playoff threat that could cause a January upset.
The Steelers have a top-10 defense this season and the best special-teams unit so far. One concern is that they have played the ninth-easiest schedule to this point and have the eighth-hardest schedule going forward. Pittsburgh will need that offense to be better than below-average if they are to navigate a tough stretch of games.
14) Houston Texans (5-2)
The Texans are a somewhat bizarre team to watch in 2024. They are 5-2 but have never really looked that impressive in getting there. Four of Houston’s five wins have come by a total of 15 points, and their only blowout win was over the Patriots. The Texans have lost their two hardest matchups, and that will have them concerned, considering they were at home against the Bills.
The underlying metrics do not show this team as a top-10 unit in any real way. Houston’s best asset offensively is being good at scoring touchdowns in the red zone (70%) and only turning the ball over 7.2% of the time.
Defensively, the Texans rank 12th, but outside of rush success rate and yards per play, their numbers are distinctly average. They also allow touchdowns on 72.2% of red-zone visits.
The AFC South is weak enough that the Texans should take home the crown, but that could be as far as their upside goes this season. They will be extremely vulnerable in a potential fourth vs. fifth seed matchup, and it’s hard to see them beating the Bills, Ravens, or Chiefs on the road.
15) Chicago Bears (4-2)
The Chicago Bears are sitting in a solid spot coming off the bye, but there should be just a hint of concern about their potential going forward.
To this point, the Bears have faced the easiest schedule in the league but have one of the toughest going forward. Chicago has lost both of its road games this year, including its toughest game to this point against Houston.
The offense ranks 15th on the season but has found a spark in recent weeks. Chicago will need to keep that development going in the second half in order to support its third-ranked defense. The next three weeks are an opportunity for that development before they need to be on full cylinders entering Week 11.
In the final eight weeks, the Bears face the Packers, Vikings, and Lions twice, as well as the 49ers and Seahawks once. That is a brutal stretch that could see a promising season turn to dust in a painful way.
16) New York Jets (2-5)
Since firing Robert Saleh, the New York Jets are 0-2, and the manner of their defeat against the Steelers will be a concern. The Jets gave up 30 points to a Russell Wilson-led team and have now allowed 60 points in the last two weeks. Their defense may still rank fourth, but they were first coming out of Week 5 when they fired Saleh.
Davante Adams’ arrival was never going to fix the offense immediately, but New York needed it to start firing quickly. To this point, the Jets have scored 20 points or less in four straight games and rank 23rd in Offense+. The offensive line is holding up nicely, but Aaron Rodgers is showing signs of panic when facing the blitz, which teams have keyed in on.
The schedule to this point has been tough, ranking as the seventh-toughest. Things get easier the rest of the way, but the margin for error has all but gone. The Jets cannot afford too many more stumbles in the next 10 games.
17) Atlanta Falcons (4-3)
Any excitement that was building around the Falcons came to a screeching halt with a bad loss at home against the Seahawks. Atlanta’s offense turned the ball over three times, and the defense couldn’t pick up the slack — as we feared would be the case with a 27th-ranked unit.
The Falcons’ defense has been bad in virtually every metric, and there is no sign of improvement. They’ve faced the 10th-toughest schedule to this point, but there are still plenty of tricky tests remaining, starting this week with the Buccaneers. The offense is a top-10 unit, but it needs to be better than scoring on 50% of red-zone trips.
Atlanta tops the NFC South after seven weeks, and if Tampa Bay continues to suffer injuries at the current rate, it could cling to the title. However, it’s unlikely to have a deep playoff run unless its defense can at least improve to be a league-average unit.
18) New Orleans Saints (2-5)
The New Orleans Saints’ decline since those first two weeks has been massive. Derek Carr’s absence is not helping the situation, and this team has been hit hard by injuries.
However, the Saints are on a five-game losing streak that could easily end up at six this week if Spencer Rattler has to start again. Then, they’ll be in full survival mode.
Everything about this team is essentially average at this point. The offense has been figured out after a strong start and ranks 15th, while the defense couldn’t hold its early pace when it came up against better units and now ranks 20th. Special teams have been the best part of this team, but that will be a small ray of light.
19) Arizona Cardinals (3-4)
The Arizona Cardinals have kept themselves very much in the race for the NFC West after winning on Monday Night Football in Week 7, but the underlying numbers do not suggest they are a serious challenger.
Outside of a beat down against an ailing Los Angeles Rams team in Week 2, Arizona has won two games by a combined three points and lost three by 7+, including two by over 20.
Arizona’s offense has been its bright spot, ranking ninth. Yet, the defense is a major concern down at 30th, given that head coach Jonathan Gannon’s specialty is that. The Cardinals have at least been strong in the red zone on defense, allowing touchdowns just 51.9% of the time. That has helped keep Arizona in games, and after the second-hardest schedule to start the season, things do get a little easier from here.
The next three weeks will tell us a lot as they face the Miami Dolphins, Bears, and Jets. Win those three, and maybe we can point to the tough schedule being the issue in the first seven weeks. But stumble through them, and it could be tough sledding after the bye.
20) Los Angeles Chargers (3-3)
The Los Angeles Chargers will be extremely frustrated to come away from Week 7 at 3-3. Their defense has kept them in every game, holding all six opponents to 20 points or less this year and ranking fifth in the NFL. Unfortunately, the offense has only broken 20 on three occasions and only got past 25 points once, sitting 24th in our rankings.
A big part of the offense’s problem has come in the red zone. The Chargers have scored touchdowns on just 38.5% of their visits and are the 29th-ranked unit in terms of EPA/play in those situations. That inefficiency close to the goal line has seen them squander the chance to finish the sixth-easiest start to a schedule with over a .500 record.
There is still a chance for the Chargers to turn things around, but they need to dominate the next three weeks with things getting tougher after Week 11.
21) Cincinnati Bengals (3-4)
Over the last month, the Cincinnati Bengals have stopped their season from ending. Having started 0-3 and then 1-4, Cincinnati has gotten back to 3-4 and is in sight of a .500 record.
It’s been the defense that has dragged the Bengals back, allowing just 21 points in the last two weeks despite ranking 28th for the season. However, the Eagles will test them far more than the New York Giants or Browns have in that stretch.
Cincinnati’s offense has taken a step back in the last two weeks but still ranks 10th this season. However, with the defense facing two tough tests in the next three weeks, they need to get back to their fluent best. The Bengals’ offense is in the top 10 inside the red zone, which makes up for the fact they are in the bottom 10 defensively in the same situations.
Cincinnati is delicately poised entering Week 8, and the underlying numbers suggest that this is not a playoff team. However, the AFC is such a mess right now that the Bengals could limp into the playoffs without being that much better than the league average.
22) Los Angeles Rams (2-4)
Right now, the Rams will take the Week 7 win without worrying too much about how it came. It wasn’t a pretty performance, but Los Angeles kept its season alive and is in a position to try and make a run when the offense is back together following a number of injuries.
The Rams’ offense ranks 17th through seven weeks despite not having Puka Nacua or Cooper Kupp for most of that time. Thus, there is hope that this unit can be close to a top-10 group when at full strength.
The Rams will need to overcome a 25th-ranked defense that has struggled this year. The one saving grace on that side is that they are only allowing touchdowns on 55% of red-zone trips, giving the offense a chance to keep them in games.
23) Tennessee Titans (1-5)
The change from Will Levis to Mason Rudolph due to injury did not change the course for the Tennessee Titans, and the writing is close to being on the wall. Their 28th-ranked offense has scored more than 17 points just once this season, and the defense is starting to buckle under the strain.
What was once a top-10 unit is now 13th. The defense’s lack of pressure, sacks, and turnovers are major concerns. Tennessee needs some splash plays to bail out this offense.
The Titans have played the fourth-toughest schedule to this point, and while that does get easier, it likely won’t be enough to stop this team from picking in the top five of the 2025 NFL Draft.
24) Indianapolis Colts (4-3)
Somehow, the Indianapolis Colts are 4-3 despite having the 19th-ranked offense and the 22nd-ranked defense. You have to give them credit for finding ways to win, but it doesn’t seem sustainable.
What Indianapolis appears good at is staying in games and giving themselves a chance. All seven of the Colts’ games have been decided by one score, so being 4-3 is a credit to their nerve under pressure.
The positive side of things is that, even with Anthony Richardson not playing particularly well, this team is in the fight for the AFC South and the AFC playoff picture. The offensive line is playing beautifully, which should only help him improve.
Those improvements need to come quickly, though, as the Colts have the Texans, Vikings, and Bills in the next three weeks.
25) New York Giants (2-5)
If the Giants had not already decided to move on from Daniel Jones before this season, they must have it confirmed by now. New York’s offense ranks 29th in the league and has broken 21 points just twice. They tricked us a little with that performance in Seattle (scoring 29) because, in the three games around that, they’ve scored just 25 points total.
The defense is fine, ranking 14th overall, but that’s not enough to carry an offense this bad on a sustained run. New York’s overall schedule does get easier as the year goes on, but the Steelers and the Commanders are on the docket next.
The Giants could easily be 3-7 at their bye and all but officially out of it with seven games to play.
26) Dallas Cowboys (3-3)
The bye week couldn’t have come at a better time for the Dallas Cowboys, who have somehow made it to 3-3 despite looking like the wheels were falling off. The Cowboys are ranked 22nd on offense and 24th on defense, despite playing just the 11th-hardest schedule this season.
The biggest concern is how poorly Dak Prescott has played. He has plummeted through the QB+ rankings for this season and needs to stop the spiral ASAP if Dallas is to have a realistic chance.
The good news is that despite their awful start in nearly every metric you can imagine, the Cowboys are still very much in the playoff picture. Whether that stays the case is yet to be seen.
27) Cleveland Browns (1-6)
The loss of Deshaun Watson changes the outlook for the Cleveland Browns’ season, and it may actually be for the better. However, the Browns seem determined that Dorian Thompson-Robinson will be their starter if healthy, which may be a spanner in any discussion of major improvements going forward.
It would be hard for Cleveland’s offense to get worse with Thompson-Robinson at the helm, but nothing we saw Sunday suggests he can elevate this unit much above their 32nd ranking in 2024.
The defense and special teams have both ranked inside the top six to this point, but the offense has dragged them down to a 1-6 start despite facing the fourth-easiest schedule so far.
28) Jacksonville Jaguars (2-5)
The Jacksonville Jaguars have shown signs of improvement in the last few weeks, but we’re still talking about a 16th-ranked offense and a 31st-ranked defense. The defense made the Patriots look efficient at times in London, and while some of that is down to Drake Maye, it’s also a major indictment of the unit as a whole, which has also been the worst red-zone defense this season.
Trevor Lawrence’s performance in Week 7 was promising, but now we need to see him do it against a better defense. He’s performed well against bottom-10 units but has struggled against anything league average or better. Jacksonville’s offense is pretty mediocre across the board but hopes to carry some of the improvements it saw in London into Week 8 and beyond.
The trip to London has often been viewed as a galvanizing trip for the Jaguars, and they’ll need it to be once again.
29) Miami Dolphins (2-4)
The Dolphins should almost be considered “unranked” this week because what we’ve seen should not translate to what we hope to see going forward. Miami’s offense has been the third-worst unit in the NFL after seven weeks. Yet, they’ve played 4.5 games without their starting quarterback, who they hope to get back this week.
If Tua Tagovailoa can elevate the Dolphins’ offense to even league average, Miami has a chance to challenge for a playoff spot. The defense ranks seventh overall and has excelled on third downs this year. That defensive play, combined with league-average offense, will put the Dolphins in the 12-15 region of our rankings as the season progresses.
30) Las Vegas Raiders (2-5)
The Las Vegas Raiders continue to be bad and are now facing the prospect of going back to the quarterback they benched two weeks ago. With Aidan O’Connell injured, Gardner Minshew II looks to start for this 27th-ranked offense.
It’s hard to find much positive to say about Vegas’ offense, which lacks anything of substance to build around for the future. The defense is better, but it’s still only league-average. We’ve seen the unit trending up in recent weeks, which may very well correlate with Maxx Crosby looking healthier.
The Raiders still need to be able to put more pressure on opposing quarterbacks, but at this stage, they are largely auditioning for roles for 2025 and beyond.
31) New England Patriots (1-6)
Things have got so bad in New England that we have heard their head coach call the team soft, question their ability to stay fresh in games, and just generally be very pessimistic about their outlook. Maye has been the one bright spot and is off to a good start in his career.
The Patriots’ offense still ranks 31st for the season, but much of that damage was done when Jacoby Brissett was at the helm. The defense is arguably a bigger concern, ranking 29th after seven weeks.
Defense was the one area that you felt you could rely on for the Patriots, but that is quickly falling apart. New England is in free fall, and outside of its rookie QB offering a parachute, there’s not much positivity right now.
32) Carolina Panthers (1-6)
The Carolina Panthers remain in dire straights after seven weeks. The switch to Andy Dalton briefly revived the offense, but the effect hasn’t been long-lasting.
At this point, the Panthers either need to go back to Bryce Young and just try to develop him on the field or completely accept that he is a bust and be done with him.
The problem is that this offense’s upside is still below league average with Dalton. That would be fine if the defense was good, but it ranks as the worst unit in the league overall and in the bottom five in several categories.
Dave Canales needs to stop worrying about 2024 and start worrying about the future because Carolina is highly unlikely to get into playoff contention.
