Eisen delivered his week 3 power rankings top 10, with the Eagles first, Packers second, Bills third, Chargers fourth, Ravens fifth, Buccaneers sixth, Rams seventh, Lions eighth, Colts ninth and Falcons tenth. He also said the Bengals could still make the playoffs with Jake Browning as a .500 quarterback, and expects Kansas City to bounce back.
“the rent still is being paid to the Philadelphia Eagles... Who are still number one on my power rankings list.”
