Week 15 NFL Power Rankings and stats.

At this point, teams are just about done surprising us and even an upset win or loss doesn’t change their spot in the NFL Power Rankings.

To temper the desire to overreact, I decided to change it up a little bit this week and instead of making wild swings for teams that don’t deserve it, I am going to try to provide everyone with a stat or two that you might not know about each team.

Some stats are obvious and others are just noteworthy, but hopefully, that entertains and informs you whether you are a fan of the team you are reading about or not. Let’s start with the New York Trevor Lawrences.

32. New York Jets (+0)

Key stat: Trevor Lawrence is 37-1 in college football games, and only lost one game in high school.

Keep the faith Jets fans. If you can just keep losing you are going to get one of the best QB prospects in a long, long, long time and he might be so good that even Adam Gase won’t mess him up. I wouldn’t even bring his name up in the power rankings, except I am getting a terrifying feeling that the Jets are going to mess this thing up somehow…

31. Jacksonville Jaguars (-1)

Key stat: James Robinson is on pace to break the record for the most yards by an UDFA rookie running back.

Only 6 UDFA running backs in NFL history have run for over 1,000 as a rookie and that includes Robinson who broke that barrier today. The record is 1,104 yards and he should have that wrapped up by as soon as next week.
