Week 15 Power Rankings

 

    Ups, downs, the NFC West, and everything in between. This is the post-Week 15 power rankings.

    

Not much has changed in the landscape this late in the season, aside from the Chargers' and Steelers' big losses in critical games. Both teams could not piece together successful drives against their adversaries, knocking them back a peg in the playoff race. Pittsburgh, however, was able to smile in defeat by still clinching their ticket to the postseason. The Steelers face off against the Ravens who are closing in on them for the division title. 

I am writing this article after the Week 16 TNF game between the Chargers and Broncos in which it seems that LA is not dead yet battling back after being down the first three quarters of the game. The Chargers have now leapfrogged the Broncos in the standings and are one game away from playing in the wildcard round.
