The gloves are off in Part 2 of our NFL offseason power rankings.
Dave Clarke, Bob Kelly, and Rayshawn Buchanan pick up right where we left off last week after torching the league’s bottom 12. Now we’re getting into that middle-to-upper tier — teams that could swing either way in 2025. Contenders in the making, pretenders in disguise… we’re calling them out.
We kick things off with the Seattle Seahawks at 19. Sam Darnold’s running the show, Cooper Kupp’s in town, and Mike Macdonald’s defense is going to have to keep this thing from falling apart while the offense figures it out.
From there, it’s a ride through breakout candidates like Kyler Murray and Marvin Harrison Jr. in Arizona, a 49ers team that lives or dies on Christian McCaffrey’s legs, and a Pittsburgh Steelers squad that suddenly has Rodgers, Ramsey, and DK Metcalf but still has to survive that brutal schedule.
We talk Caleb Williams’ rookie year in Chicago, why Houston might be better than people think (if Mixon and Nico can stay healthy), and how Kevin O’Connell somehow keeps the Vikings relevant even with a rookie QB. Denver’s defense looks terrifying, Jim Harbaugh might be the missing piece for the Chargers, and the Jordan Love debate rages on in Green Bay.
You’ll hear plenty of “are you serious?” moments, QB ranking fights, and some very real questions about coaches like Kyle Shanahan and Mike Tomlin. Agree, disagree, yell at us on Twitter — it’s all part of the fun.
