Rich Eisen · Feb 12, 2025

Rich Eisen laid out his "way, way too early" top-10 NFL power rankings for the 2025 season, with the Eagles first, Ravens second and Commanders third, and separately said the Chiefs would still finish as a top-two seed in the AFC.

I still think that when it's all said and done, they're gonna be a top four, top five team, top two seed in the AFC next year.

Each one is scored on its own against the published methodology. A pundit naming several outcomes is graded on each, not on all-or-nothing.

  • Number 10 on the list, the LA chargers... I'm putting the Denver Broncos at nine... I'm putting the Vikings at eight... the Los Angeles Rams... They're seventh on this list... I'm putting the Bills here [six]... Lions fans at five... I'm putting the Chiefs at four... Number three on this list, I'm putting the Washington commanders... Number two on the list is the top team in the AFC. I'm putting the Ravens here... And then number one is... the Philadelphia Eagles

  • Kansas City Chiefs to take the top seed

    I still think that when it's all said and done, they're gonna be a top four, top five team, top two seed in the AFC next year.

    Not settled yet. This is graded once the season it describes has finished.
