It is Tuesday of week 1. Do you know what that means? Yep, you guessed it, power rankings. This year I am going to do power rankings as well as compile where the Titans rank in the various rankings around the league because I know all of you are just dying to know where I rank the different teams.
My plan is to keep the rankings each week in a spreadsheet- for a couple of reasons. The first is because it is a whole lot easier to keep track of that way. The second is that I am interested to look back at the end of the season and see how much they change from week 1 to week 17.
Ranking teams before we actually see them play is pretty dumb, so that is why the Eagles have to start out at #1. They are the reigning champions and should get to hold the spot until it is proven they don’t deserve it.
So without further adieu, here are my 2018 NFL week 1 power rankings:
- Philadelphia Eagles
- Los Angeles Rams
- Minnesota Vikings
- New England Patriots
- New Orleans Saints
- Pittsburgh Steelers
- Green Bay Packers
- Atlanta Falcons
- Los Angeles Chargers
- Tennessee Titans (yes, I’m a homer)
- Jacksonville Jaguars
- Carolina Panthers
- Kansas City Chiefs
- Chicago Bears
- Houston Texans
- San Francisco 49ers
- Cincinnati Bengals
- New York Giants
- Baltimore Ravens
- Detroit Lions
- Denver Broncos
- Cleveland Browns
- Dallas Cowboys
- Indianapolis Colts
- Seattle Seahawks
- Washington Redskins
- Arizona Cardinals
- New York Jets
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Oakland Raiders
- Miami Dolphins
- Buffalo Bills
Where do the Titans rank around the web?
SB Nation: 15
CBS Pete Prisco: 16
New coach Mike Vrable and first-time offensive coordinator Matt LaFleur have to get Marcus Mariota going after a so-so 2017 season.
Bleeding Green Nation: 20(!?!?)
I’ll forever love former future Eagles quarterback Marcus Mariota but ... is he actually good? I don’t know. I don’t think this Titans team is bad but I don’t think they’re good.
