NFL Power Rankings Week 7: Titans collapse and bench Marcus Mariota

Pros: So it turns out that having a dynamic running back and giving him the ball consistently is something that Matt LaFleur can do. If you watched him with the Tennessee Titans that might be surprising to you as it took him the better part of a season to figure that out. That may seem out of place under Pros, but growth is important and good to see.

Defensively the Packers look like they are on a level that they haven’t been at since the peak Charles Woodson and Clay Matthews era. With a franchise QB, that offensive line, that defense, and a dynamic RB, Matt LaFleur looks poised for success.

Cons: I really wanted to see the Packers blow the doors off of the Cowboys last week since they had such a huge lead and since they really hadn’t done that yet. However, if the only problem is that the Packers are only beating other teams by a smaller margin, that is a first world problem.
