# Richard Sherman: Sherman gives his week 11 power rankings, keeping Seattle at No. 1, elevating Philadelphia to No. 2 and the Rams to No. 3, with New England fourth and Indianapolis fifth.

It names 3 players and teams, each linked to their own record. All 3 have settled, averaging 53.3 out of 100, against 10 for a naive guess at the same calls. > The Seattle Seahawks will be the number one spot this week in my power rankings, deservedly so. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **The Seattle Seahawks will be the number one spot this week in my power rankings... because number two is going to the Philadelphia Eagles...
