6. Seattle Seahawks (-4)

The Seattle Seahawks are a really good team and they deserve to be ranked high in the power rankings, but man it is hard to watch this team refuse to put opponents away.

If you missed the game last night, it was a lot like nearly every game that the Seahawks play in primetime. The Seahawks look like they are going to dominate for a while, then they let the opponent back in, and then they rely on Russell Wilson to save them late in the game.

This week, the Arizona Cardinals made just enough plays on defense to give Kyler Murray more chances to win this game, and ultimately that was the difference in the game.

Nothing really changes about the way we should see or judge the Seattle Seahawks, but now that they aren’t unbeaten the Seahawks and the Titans both need to be held accountable for their mistakes on defense (even though they have always been there and they have been able to get away with it).

5. Baltimore Ravens (+0)

The Baltimore Ravens have a bye week so they won’t move until the Week 9 power rankings.
