Rich Eisen · Nov 5, 2025

Eisen delivered his Week 10 power rankings, topped by the Eagles, and reiterated his season picks: the Chiefs winning the Super Bowl and the Lions winning the NFC. He also floated that Baker Mayfield could become the first quarterback to top $60 million per year, and expected the Colts to keep Daniel Jones as their quarterback going forward.

I think the Eagles are the best team in football game.

  • Kansas City Chiefs to win the Super Bowl

    Plus, I have them winning the Super Bowl this year, and I'm not dropping them out of my power rankings just because of this.

  • Daniel Jones to be 1st on the depth chart

    clearly, they they have to think Daniel Jones is their quarterback moving forward... It is Daniel Jones.

  • Detroit Lions to reach the Super Bowl

    The Lions are still really damn good. Again, I have them winning the NFC. And that's your Super Bowl.

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