Let’s make one thing clear before you dive too deep into my Week 1 power rankings.

The NFL is a win-now league. And this is a win-now list. It’s not where I predict where your team will end up by the time the 2016 season. It’s not an inverse ranking of Super Bowl 51 odds. It’s not even a look at how these teams will stack up heading into Week 2.

These rankings are based on two things: how your favorite team looks right now and how I feel they’re set up heading into their next matchup. Like the league standings, they can and will change over time.

Are we on the same page? Good. Because after a few clicks, you might not agree with where I placed your favorite teams (Spoiler alert: They’re too low, I know). I know you’ll find me on Twitter and tell me how you really feel.
