NFL Power Rankings Week 12: Where does every NFC team stand?

NFC Power Rankings: The top teams

#4 - Tampa Bay Buccaneers (7-3)

Last week: #5

Next week: vs. Indianapolis Colts

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are back in the top four of the NFC Power Rankings after a dominant victory over the New York Giants on Monday Night Football. They ended a two-game losing streak against the New Orleans Saints and the Washington Football Team with Tom Brady getting back on track.

The Buccaneers have a challenging game in Week 12 against the surging Indianapolis Colts. An impressive win could get them back to the top three in the NFC Power Rankings.

#3 - Los Angeles Rams (7-3)

Last week: #4

Next week: vs. Green Bay Packers

The Los Angeles Rams have lost two consecutive games but remain in the top three of the NFC Power Rankings. Hopefully they used their last week to make some necessary adjustments.

The Rams will be without Robert Woods for the remainder of the season, so Odell Beckham Jr. and Van Jefferson will both have to step into larger roles in the offense. The Rams will also look to get newly acquired pass rusher Von Miller healthy and rolling.

#2 - Green Bay Packers (8-3)

Last week: #1

Next week: vs. Los Angeles Rams

After just one week on top of the NFC Power Rankings, the Green Bay Packers fell back down to second place. They lost a close battle against the Minnesota Vikings last week. It was Aaron Rodgers' first loss since Week 1 against the Saints.

The Packers have an important clash with the Los Angeles Rams in Week 12. The game could be extremely important for the playoff standings as well as the NFC Power Rankings.

#1 - Arizona Cardinals (9-2)

Last week: #2

Next week: BYE

The Arizona Cardinals have the best record in the NFL and have moved back into the top spot in the Power Rankings after one week away from it. They have a much needed bye in Week 12.

The Cardinals will use their bye week to recover from key injuries to players such as quarterback Kyler Murray and wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins. Murray is an NFL MVP candidate and Hopkins is one of the best wide receivers in the NFL.
