NFL Power Rankings Week 11: Where does every AFC team stand?

Who has taken the #1 spot in the Week 11 AFC power rankings?

Here are the top nine in the AFC power rankings.

#9 - Cincinnati Bengals - (5-5)

Previous Rank: 8

Next Week: vs. Las Vegas Raiders

The Cincinnati Bengals were beginning to look like a very dominant team. Both sides of the ball were doing their part to showcase a brand new team under the fully-healed Joe Burrow. That hope has since been dashed against the rocks, with the Bengals losing two games in a row and now sending themselves to the middle of the power rankings.

#8 - Las Vegas Raiders - (5-4)

Previous Rank: 7

Next Week: vs. Cincinnati Bengals

The entirety of the drama that the Raiders have had to deal with in cutting two players and losing a head coach may have finally settled in. The Raiders have dropped two games and one against the much lesser Giants. This Raiders team will need to find a way to pull themselves out of a downward spiral should they want a playoff spot and a better spot in the power rankings.

#7 - Los Angeles Chargers - (5-4)

Previous Rank: 5

Next Week: Pittsburgh Steelers

The Los Angeles Chargers are trying their hardest to keep their playoff hopes alive as they nearly beat the Patriots, beat the Eagles, and nearly beat the surging Vikings. They just seem to be a step behind their competition every week and they have dropped a bit in this week's power rankings.

#6 - Pittsburgh Steelers - (5-3-1)

Previous Rank: 4

Next Week: vs. Los Angeles Chargers

The Pittsburgh Steelers began to look like the team of old, as they were on a two-game winning streak. Now they have confused everyone with a rare tie against the Lions. In their defense, Big Ben was placed on the Covid/Reserve list. The Steelers can remain AFC North championship hopefuls and remain near the top of this week's power rankings.

#5 - New England Patriots - (6-4)

Previous Rank: 9

Next Week: Atlanta Falcons

This New England Patriots team is starting to look quite scary. They have experienced one of the biggest jumps in the power rankings for any team in the AFC.

They are on a four-game winning streak and will likely make it five when playing the Falcons on Thursday. The real test will be against the Titans in Week 12.

#4 - Kansas City Chiefs - (6-4)

Previous Rank: 11

Next Week: Dallas Cowboys

Jumping seven spots in the power rankings seems outrageous to some, but the Chiefs have not cemented themselves back atop the AFC West. Back-to-back wins against the Raiders and Packers show that this team is ready to get back on track. Patrick Mahomes' five touchdowns on Sunday put him squarely back at the top of the quarterback rankings as well.

#3 - Baltimore Ravens - (6-3)

Previous Rank: 2

Next Week: vs. Chicago Bears

You can't drop the ball against a team like the Miami Dolphins and not expect to fall a spot in the power rankings. Teams might pay more attention to tape on the game and figure out ways in which their defense can replicate the Dolphins' success against defeating the Ravens' stellar rushing attack.

#2 - Buffalo Bills - (6-3)

Previous Rank: 3

Next Week: vs. Indianapolis Colts

The Bills made up for their misstep against the Jaguars by easily dispatching the equally bad Jets. The Bills still hold on to the best points differential in the entire league and will look to complete their AFC East dominance against the Colts and Saints in the next two weeks.

#1 - Tennesee Titans - (8-2)

Previous Rank: 1

Next Week: vs. Houston Texans

Even with the loss of Derrick Henry, the Titans have shown their toughness in rebounding with the help of Adrian Peterson.

The Titans' stout defense championed by Harold Landry III should keep them squarely at the top of the AFC power rankings for quite some time.
