Baltimore’s time on prime was short-lived as now BUFFALO takes the highest spot (maybe surprisingly?). Issues are shut on the prime with the highest 6 groups inside a couple of level and a half of one another. Additionally noteworthy is Miami rising again to close the center of the pack on account of Tua’s return after weeks on the backside.
This week’s greatest faller was Tampa Bay who misplaced their two elite broad receivers in the middle of simply a few hours. As a symptom of how our mannequin behaves (and actually, there isn’t an excellent technique to deal with this with out introducing bias), Tampa’s fall dragged Baltimore down a bit with them. Count on Baltimore to bounce again to close the highest subsequent week, particularly in the event that they beat Cleveland as soundly as we count on. Washington’s plummeting within the rankings is attributable to Jayden Daniels’ probably lacking time, they need to bounce again when he comes again and appears like his outdated self.

Buffalo and Detroit gained a bit on the backs of their taking pictures up in our score system. Philly continued to lose, Baltimore misplaced a bit due to the wonky information, and San Fran misplaced fairly a bit after their continued accidents and loss towards KC.
