NFL power rankings: Bills far and wide best team through Week 2
Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs led the Bills to a win over the Titans on Monday night
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}
Week 2 of the NFL season is in the books and the Buffalo Bills are clearly the best team in the league.
Josh Allen had 317 passing yards and four touchdown passes in the team’s 41-7 demolition of the Tennessee Titans on Monday night. Couple the win with last week’s blowout of the defending Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams, and they are staying on top of the NFL.
There are six teams who remain undefeated, and only one of those teams fell out of the power rankings through the second week of the season – the New York Giants.

The Giants have two fluky wins over the Titans and Carolina Panthers. Both the Titans and the Panthers have yet to pick up a win this season.
The Miami Dolphins, Kansas City Chiefs, Philadelphia Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneers are the other remaining undefeated teams.
Read below to see how the rest of the rankings shake out.

Week 3 matchup: Sunday @ Colts
The Chiefs stay in the No. 2 spot in the power rankings thanks to their win over the Chargers on Thursday night. Patrick Mahomes was as good as advertised, but the defense will have to shape up, especially in the tough AFC West.

Week 3 matchup: Sunday @ Cardinals
The Rams showed why they were the defending Super Bowl champions with a scoring onslaught against the Falcons. The defense ended the game, but almost blowing the lead may be a concern moving forward.

6). Green Bay Packers (1-1)

Week 2 result: 27-10 over Bears
Week 3 matchup: Sunday @ Buccaneers

The Packers got back on track with a huge Sunday night win over the Bears. As long as Aaron Rodgers has Allen Lazard and Aaron Jones cooking, Green Bay looks to be in control. It was a nice bounce back divisional win.

Week 2 result: 42-38 win over Ravens
Week 3 matchup: Sunday vs. Bills
Are the Dolphins for real? Can a performance like Tua Tagovailoa’s in Week 2 against the Ravens be sustainable? Those are the questions Miami will face in Week 3, and they will have a chance to prove it against the Bills. For now, the Dolphins are undefeated and have a comeback victory in their pocket.

Week 3 matchup: Sunday vs. Rams
The Cardinals got a comeback victory against the Raiders on Sunday. Kyler Murray led the charge and used some his magic to get back into the game. Arizona looked good, but the schedule is not kind to them.

Week 2 result: 42-38 loss to Dolphins
Week 3 matchup: Sunday @ Patriots

The Ravens showed Sunday they are still very dangerous on offense behind Lamar Jackson. Holding a lead is another issue. They are still one of the better 1-1 teams in the NFL.
