After another week of National Football League action, NFL analyst Elliot Harrison released the week 7 Power Rankings from the 1st to the 5th spot.
The Kansas City Chiefs remain on top of the power rankings despite losing to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Even though the Los Angeles Rams had a tough opponent in Jacksonville, the Rams managed to find a way to win. Their special team showed up and scored two touchdowns while the offense was great at moving the ball against the best defensive team in the National Football league right now to help them win against the Jaguars.
