There’s plenty to take away from Week 13. Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals defeated the Kansas City Chiefs yet again. The San Francisco 49ers managed to win, but Jimmy Garoppolo’s injury could change the outlook of the season. The Philadelphia Eagles kept rolling with a dominant win. Don’t forget the Detroit Lions. They have won four of their last five games and continue to climb our power rankings.
After an eventful weekend, we have some movement at the top of our weekly power rankings.
Let’s check the latest NFL picks, stats, injury reports, and NFL predictions. We’ve plenty of NFL expert picks for you to consider.
32. Texans
Last Week: 32
The Houston Texans could not beat their former quarterback in the 27-14 loss to the Cleveland Browns. Houston simply cannot stay consistent this season. The Texans led 5-0 early but were outscored 27-3 until the late fourth quarter. With upcoming games against the Dallas Cowboys, Kansas City Chiefs and Tennessee Titans, Houston will be lucky to grab a second win.

31. Broncos
Last Week: 31
Nothing changed for the Denver Broncos. Once again, the defense played great and gave the Broncos a chance to win. The offense scored only three points in the second half, and the defense gave up a game-winning touchdown despite the Baltimore Ravens missing their starting quarterback. Denver could fail to reach five wins.

30. Bears
Last Week: 30
After taking an early 16-3 lead, it looked like the Chicago Bears would finally beat the Green Bay Packers. Could they break the curse? That was wishful thinking as the Bears lost 28-19. Quarterback Justin Fields’ play on potential game-winning drives is becoming a slight concern. He threw back-to-back interceptions on the last two drives. Chicago is still not good enough to take down Aaron Rodgers and the Packers.

29. Panthers
Last Week: 29
The Carolina Panthers were on a bye in Week 13. Quarterback Baker Mayfield was cut Monday, signaling Carolina is comfortable with Sam Darnold and P.J. Walker to finish the season. Drafting a QB is inevitable and tanking could be the Panthers’ best bet.
- +50000 Super Bowl odds
28. Colts
Last Week: 28
Through three quarters, the Indianapolis Colts were going back and forth with the Dallas Cowboys. Then, an absolute meltdown came in the final quarter, as Dallas rattled off 33 unanswered points. The Colts fell 54-19 after trailing by only two points going into the fourth quarter. Turnovers continue to be a problem and the defense has not been good enough. This season is a wash for the Colts
- +100000 Super Bowl odds
27. Rams
Last Week: 27
The future looks bleak for the Los Angeles Rams. At 3-9, this could be the worst Super Bowl hangover we have ever seen. Tanking won’t do much for the Rams either, as the Detroit Lions own Los Angeles’ first-round pick. The Rams’ secondary struggled in the 27-23 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Cornerback Jalen Ramsey has quickly declined and Los Angeles is dealing with various injuries. Going forward, the Rams need to start Bryce Perkins instead of John Wolford at quarterback.
- +75000 Super Bowl odds
26. Cardinals
Last Week: 26
After snapping their two-game losing streak, the Arizona Cardinals enjoyed a bye week. Cornerback Byron Murphy Jr. and wide receiver Rondale Moore got a chance to get healthy before taking on the New England Patriots in Week 14. At 4-8, coach Kliff Kingsbury is likely on borrowed time. He is hoping for a dramatic turnaround.
- +75000 Super Bowl odds
25. Falcons
Last Week: 20
Following their fourth loss over the last five games, the Atlanta Falcons’ playoff hopes are nearly over. Luckily, the NFC South is the worst division in football and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have struggled at 6-6. However, Atlanta has a slim chance of winning the division. The Falcons can no longer win by simply running the football. Quarterback Marcus Mariota and the defense are not good enough. This was on full display in the 19-16 loss against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
- +20000 Super Bowl odds
24. Jaguars
Last Week: 19
The Jacksonville Jaguars could be the most inconsistent team in the NFL. After taking down the Baltimore Ravens, the Jags were thrashed 40-14 by the Detroit Lions. Quarterback Trevor Lawrence’s up-and-down play has been part of the problem. Plus, the defense has slowly declined throughout the season. Jacksonville has shown some bright spots but has plenty to improve upon.
- +25000 Super Bowl odds
23. Saints
Last Week: 24
With a win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the New Orleans Saints would have been back in the NFC South race. However, New Orleans completely collapsed late in the fourth quarter, effectively ending its playoff hopes. The Saints controlled most of this game and then surrendered 14 points in the final three minutes, leading to the 17-16 loss. Kicking three field goals in the red zone was crucial. New Orleans has little to play for as it enters a bye week.
- +50000 Super Bowl odds
22. Steelers
Last Week: 25
Coach Mike Tomlin has done it yet again. The Pittsburgh Steelers were 2-6 with a roster full of holes. Since the bye week, the Steelers are 3-1 over their last four games and went back and forth with the surging Cincinnati Bengals. Rookie quarterback, Kenny Pickett’s improvement has been a huge factor. In the 19-16 win over the Atlanta Falcons, Pickett was efficient and running back Najee Harris had a solid game. Pittsburgh has a decent chance of finishing around .500.
- +25000 Super Bowl odds
21. Packers
Last Week: 23
Even in a bad season, there was no way Rodgers was going to lose to the Chicago Bears. Green Bay came out on top 28-19 after outscoring Chicago 18-3 in the second half. The run game got back on track and the Packers’ run defense slightly improved. Rookie wideout Christian Watson stole the show once again with two touchdowns, including a 46-yard run. Green Bay will have a chance to fix some issues during the upcoming bye week.
- +20000 Super Bowl odds
20. Browns
Last Week: 22
As expected, quarterback Deshaun Watson looked like someone who had not played in almost two years. The Cleveland Browns leaned on the run and the defense forced four turnovers. Cleveland sits at 5-7 and could come close to .500 with a favorable schedule to finish the regular season. The Browns hope to continue their domination against the Bengals in Week 14.
- +12500 Super Bowl odds
19. Patriots
Last Week: 15
After the 24-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Thursday Night Football, it may be time to give up on the New England Patriots’ playoff hopes. The Patriots have only two wins against teams with winning records, both of which came against the New York Jets. New England has remaining games against the Bills, Miami Dolphins and Bengals.
- +15000 Super Bowl odds
18. Raiders
Last Week: 21
This is the Las Vegas Raiders team we expected before the season. Against the Los Angeles Chargers, the Raiders aired it out as wide receiver Devante Adams was unstoppable with 177 yards. Plus, the pass rush dominated thanks to Chandler Jones’ three sacks. Las Vegas has a good chance of extending its win streak to four against the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday Night Football. The Raiders would need to win out for a shot at the playoffs, but at least they have finally improved.
- +15000 Super Bowl odds
17. Chargers
Last Week: 12
We cannot list the Los Angeles Chargers as a playoff contender until they can defeat a team with a winning record. Los Angeles is 0-4 against teams with winning records and are coming off a 27-20 loss against the Las Vegas Raiders. This was not close either, as the Chargers trailed 27-13 in the fourth quarter. Los Angeles is on track to fall short of the playoffs, despite being listed as one of the preseason Super Bowl favorites. Injuries have certainly played a part.
- +6600 Super Bowl odds
16. Buccaneers
Last Week: 16
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers pulled off another comeback in the dwindling minutes. The offense looked out of sync against the New Orleans Saints, but it came up in the clutch with two touchdowns in the final three minutes. The 17-16 win was reminiscent of the dramatic 16-13 win over the Los Angeles Rams on Nov. 6. Tampa Bay has nearly locked up the NFC South with -650 odds, but many problems are still present. The Buccaneers need to rapidly improve before the playoffs or they will be a first-round exit.
- +2000 Super Bowl odds
15. Giants
Last Week: 17
After trailing 10-0 against the Washington Commanders, the New York Giants went on a 20-3 run and held a 20-13 lead heading into the fourth quarter. Then, the offense completely disappeared, leading to a 20-20 tie. The Giants have not won a game over the last three weeks and have the Philadelphia Eagles up next. Quarterback Daniel Jones comes off a good performance and defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux looks fantastic, but the run game must be better. New York needs a few more wins to make the playoffs.
- +12500 Super Bowl odds
14. Lions
Last Week: 18
We already knew the Detroit Lions were no joke after they nearly knocked off the Buffalo Bills on Thanksgiving. Detroit picked up right where it left off with a dominant 40-14 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The bye week did wonders for the Lions. The defense has been solid since and the offense continues to put up numbers. Running back D’Andre Swift looks back to normal and first-round rookie wide receiver Jameson Williams made his debut in Week 13. Will Detroit crash the playoff party?
- +20000 Super Bowl odds
13. Titans
Last Week: 11
The Tennessee Titans are on their way to an AFC South title with a playoff appearance. After the embarrassing 35-10 loss to the Eagles, a first-round exit seems inevitable. Tennessee’s pass defense is too poor to contend with the best teams in the AFC. In Week 12, it allowed 270 passing yards against the Bengals. A week later, the Eagles totaled 386 yards through the air. The Titans’ passing game cannot go back and forth with elite aerial attacks, and playing from behind forces Tennessee to stop running the ball. Unless the Titans fix their pass defense, they are in trouble.
- +4500 Super Bowl odds
12. Seahawks
Last Week: 14
The Seattle Seahawks managed to escape Week 13 with a 27-23 win over the Los Angeles Rams. Wide receivers DK Metcalf (127 yards) and Tyler Lockett (128 yards) dominated as the run game struggled to get going. Seattle holds a spot in the playoffs but several areas need to be cleaned up, like the offensive line and run game.
- +5000 Super Bowl odds
11. Jets
Last Week: 13
This is why quarterback Mike White is starting. The New York Jets trailed the Minnesota Vikings 20-3 and came back, cutting the lead to 20-15. New York even had a chance to win it late in the fourth quarter, but White threw a game-sealing interception. The Jets lost 27-22, but it was not a horrible result. New York is still in a great spot to make the postseason, and the offense has far more balance.
- +10000 Super Bowl odds
10. Commanders
Last Week: 10
In Week 13, the Washington Commanders tied with the Giants (20-20). This is usually a disappointing outcome, but the Commanders should be happy with it. New York completely took the game over on a 20-3 stretch and led by seven in the fourth quarter. Once again, QB Taylor Heinicke stepped up in the clutch for a game-tying touchdown. The tie keeps the Commanders alive in the playoff race.
- +10000 Super Bowl odds
9. Ravens
Last Week: 9
Winning the AFC North (-130) is quickly slipping out of the Baltimore Ravens’ hands. The Ravens nearly lost back-to-back games against the Jacksonville Jaguars and Denver Broncos. Fortunately, backup QB Tyler Huntley got the job done in the 10-9 win over the Broncos. Lamar Jackson left the game with a knee injury and is listed as “week-to-week.” If Jackson misses multiple games, Baltimore could fall short in the divisional race.
- +1800 Super Bowl odds
8. Dolphins
Last Week: 6
The Miami Dolphins finally lost with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa starting a full game. The 33-17 loss to the San Francisco 49ers was quite disappointing, especially with QB Jimmy Garoppolo exiting early with an injury. Miami had four turnovers and Tagovailoa stumbled against San Francisco’s elite defense. The loss also knocked the Dolphins out of the top spot in the AFC East, meaning they are now holding a wild-card spot.
- +1800 Super Bowl odds
7. Vikings
Last Week: 7
Following their second consecutive win, the Minnesota Vikings remain on the Eagles’ tail for the top seed in the NFC. The offense was nearly non-existent in the second half against the New York Jets. Minnesota found a way to win like it has done most of the season. The Vikings scored a fourth-quarter touchdown and the defense came up with clutch stops. Minnesota has another tough upcoming game against the blazing-hot Lions.
- +1600 Super Bowl odds
6. 49ers
Last Week: 4
Starting quarterback Garoppolo went down with a season-ending foot injury in Week 13. This completely changes the outlook of the season. Led by an elite defense and a strong supporting cast on offense, the San Francisco 49ers can still win a playoff game, but making the NFC Championship Game or winning a Super Bowl looks unlikely. We should not completely count out San Francisco, though. The 49ers just beat the Miami Dolphins 33-17 with Garoppolo out for most of the game.
- +1000 Super Bowl odds
5. Cowboys
Last Week: 5
The Dallas Cowboys were having a mediocre outing against the Indianapolis Colts and responded by scoring 33 points in the fourth quarter, leading to a 54-19 win. Going forward, Dallas needs more consistent play from quarterback Dak Prescott and it needs to replace starting cornerback Anthony Brown, who went down with a season-ending Achilles injury. After the San Francisco 49ers lost their starting QB to injury, the NFC looks to be a two-horse race between the Cowboys and Eagles.
- +650 Super Bowl odds
4. Chiefs
Last Week: 1
For the third time over the last year, the Kansas City Chiefs lost to the Bengals. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes was outplayed by Joe Burrow. Kansas City’s defensive line could not generate enough pressure and Mahomes’ favorite target, tight end Travis Kelce, was kept in check. The Chiefs are still one of the NFL’s best, but can they overcome the Bengals if the two meet again in the playoffs?
- +450 Super Bowl odds
3. Bengals
Last Week: 8
The Cincinnati Bengals are all the way back. This looks like the team that made a Super Bowl run; it could be even better. The 27-24 win over the Chiefs was eye-opening for several reasons. First, Burrow continues to outplay Mahomes in head-to-head matchups. Cincinnati’s QB is now the third choice for the MVP award at +700. Furthermore, the secondary played well despite a weak cornerback group. The Bengals have a great shot of winning the AFC North, and Cincinnati could secure one of the AFC’s top seeds if it defeats the Bills in Week 17.
- +1200 Super Bowl odds
2. Bills
Last Week: 3
Over the last month, the Buffalo Bills have shown chinks in their armor. However, even with some struggles, the Bills sit atop the AFC following the Chiefs’ loss. Plus, Buffalo looked to be back in form after Thursday’s 24-10 win against the New England Patriots. Quarterback Josh Allen was efficient, wide receiver Stefon Diggs shined (92 yards) and the defense dominated. The AFC championship could go through Buffalo with only five weeks remaining in the regular season.
- +400 Super Bowl odds
1. Eagles
Last Week: 2
After clobbering the Titans 35-10, the Philadelphia Eagles did plenty to prove they deserve the top spot this week. Like we say nearly every week, Philly can beat teams in almost any way. Tennessee has a strong run defense but weak cornerback play, so the Eagles threw for over 350 yards. Quarterback Jalen Hurts was nearly flawless and is closing in on the MVP award with +160 odds. This is the most complete team in football.
