Week 1 NFL Power Rankings: 11-15

Minnesota Vikings . 15. player. 60. The “it” pick in the NFC, the Vikings have the potential to take a big step forward, but their sleeper status panning out is dependent on a lot of things going right that may or may not happen. For now, they are a middle-of-the-pack team.. 0-0. Last Week: -

Last Week: -. Philadelphia Eagles . 14. player. 54. Year three of the Chip Kelly regime will show just what kind of an NFL coach Chip Kelly is and it isn’t too early to call this a make or break year given the way some former players have talked about their experience playing for Kelly.. 0-0

The Dolphins have a nice talent base on paper, but big offseason splashes haven’t worked out in Miami before.. 0-0. Last Week: -. Miami Dolphins . 13. player. 59

San Diego Chargers . 12. player. 13. Since the rise of the Broncos in the AFC West, the Chargers have been left in the muddled middle of the AFC. They need Melvin Gordon to bring some life to their running game.. 0-0. Last Week: -

Pittsburgh Steelers . 11. player. 55. Super Bowl contenders if the defense can return to the form expected from a Steelers defense, but that looks unlikely.. 0-0. Last Week: -
