Dolphins, Bills Surge in National Power Rankings

September 20, 2013

Well guys, it’s time we had our own round up of the infamous click and comment generator, the NFL power rankings. Here’s this weeks round up featuring ESPN, NFL.com, PFF, Fox Sports, CBS Sports, and Yahoo Sports for our AFC East squads:

Miami and Buffalo made big jumps across all rankings with wins over Indianapolis and Carolina respectively. The Jets and Patriots were stagnant after their sloppy clash in Gillette. Look for the Dolphins to make another jump this week if they can fight off the ailing Falcons in their home opener. Other AFC East squads could rise with convincing victories against teams currently ranked outside the top 20 (Bills, Jets, Buccs).
