We're two weeks into the new NFL season, and after another round of games, we have an even better idea about who the contenders (and the pretenders) are in the league. Let’s take a look at our power rankings as we prepare for Week 3.
1. Buffalo Bills (2-0)
The Buffalo Bills were at the top spot in last week's ranking, and scoring 41 points on a potential playoff team in the Detroit Lions helped secure that spot again entering this week.
2. Seattle Seahawks (2-0)
The defending Super Bowl champions rose in this week's rankings after two teams in the previous top five lost, while the Seahawks absolutely routed the Cardinals in NFC West play.3. San Francisco (2-0)
After an impressive defensive performance and dominant win over the Rams in Australia,
the 49ers stayed the course with a three-touchdown win over the Dolphins.4. Cincinnati Bengals (2-0)
The Bengals are one of those teams that look very different with their starting quarterback healthy, and with Joe Burrow looking as strong as ever and other top-five teams losing, the Bengals have climbed in this week's rankings.
5. Kansas City Chiefs (2-0)
The Chiefs missed the playoffs for the first time in a decade last year, but Patrick Mahomes looks incredible after a season-ending injury last year, and he won over the Broncos, and the Colts now have them back in the top tier of these rankings.
6. Philadelphia Eagles (2-0)
