2019 NFL Power Rankings: Week 11
11/12/2019
Here at the ICT Zone, our power rankings are based on a very simple philosophy. "To be the man you gotta beat the man", if a lower ranked team beats a higher ranked team, then the two teams automatically swap spots regardless of results from prior weeks. Here are the changes for Week 10 of the NFL season.
Last week, the Pittsburgh Steelers were number 1 and after an impressive victory over the Los Angeles Rams, they retain their spot. However, the second placed Chargers are now replaced by the Raiders after a close game in Oakland. The Falcons are definitely the most surprising addition to the top 5 after their shocking upset of previous #4 New Orleans Saints. At the bottom of the rankings we have a new worst team in the NFL after the Jets ended their brief stay by defeating the Giants. The Giants are now the worst team going into week 11 of the season.
The Packers, Giants, Titans and Seahawks enjoy a bye week. While we get to look forward to a rematch of the 2017 Super Bowl and a matchup of two of the league's most dynamic quarterbacks when the Texans take on the surging Ravens. For now, here is our NFL power ranking for the week.
