ESPN.com’s NFL Power Rankings heading into Week 16 were released Tuesday. Here are my thoughts on how the AFC West teams fared in the rankings:
Power Ranking: 10
My Power Ranking range: 10-12
Why: San Diego has won six of seven games, but it still needs help to make the playoffs.
Power Ranking: 11
My Power Ranking range: 10-12
Why: Fueled by an impressive win at St. Louis, all the Chiefs need to do is keep winning.
Power Ranking: 16
My Power Ranking range: 15-17
Why: The Raiders will have revert to their Week 13 performance at San Diego to beat the Colts.
Power Ranking: 31
My Power Ranking range: 31
Why: The fallen Broncos are ranked right where they belong.
