The Buccaneers and Falcons are fighting a pointless battle, the Commanders are all the way back, and more in our weekly NFL power rankings.

The Lions move back into the top spot after their decisive win over the Vikings, plus one lesson learned for every NFL team.

3. Vikings (No. 4; 13-2): They’re the most overlooked 13-2 team the NFL has ever seen. They aren’t overlooked here. 4. Lions (No. 5; 13-2): They answered the bell against the Bears. It might all come down to Week 18 against the Vikings. 5. Eagles (No. 1; 12-3): They need to get Jalen Hurts back, ASAP.

Bryce Young, Chuba Hubbard and the Panthers pushed their way up the power rankings after their Week 16 win over the Cardinals.

The gauntlet that is the NFL regular season is over, and the seven teams in each conference that managed to separate themselves over that 17-game marathon are the only ones who remain standing.

The Cincinnati Bengals had no trouble getting past the Cleveland Browns in Week 16 to keep their playoff hopes alive and set up a huge Week 17 game Saturday against the Denver Broncos, a game the Bengals must win to have a chance in Week 18.

The NFL playoffs are set to begin on Saturday afternoon, but you won't find the Seattle Seahawks anywhere on the schedule. Sunday's win over the Los Angeles Rams was a nice way to finish the season, but Seattle had already been eliminated from postseason contention.
