1. Detroit Lions
The Detroit Lions look the part of the best team in the NFL this season. Both their NFC title and Super Bowl odds currently reflect that. The road to the NFC comes through the Motor City. The question is, will they be able to withstand all of their injuries? Another victory over Green Bay didn't hurt their case.

2. Philadelphia Eagles
The Philadelphia Eagles have found a rhythm and are arguably the hottest team in the NFL. After defeating the Ravens on the road, what will it take for the Eagles to leapfrog the Lions in our power rankings? They'll need a better showing than the one they had against Carolina. How will they respond in Week 15 against Pittsburgh?

3. Minnesota Vikings
Arguably the biggest surprise in the NFL this season has been the Minnesota Vikings. Sam Darnold has looked the part of a QB1, and the defense has looked great under Brian Flores. Although all the wins haven't been perfect, there's a reason this team sits at 11-2 after Week 14.

4. Green Bay Packers
The Green Bay Packers have a lot of positives with their current roster. If Jordan Love can continue growing into a top quarterback, the sky is the limit for this team. The Packers have started to bring consistency to the table down the stretch, much like they did last season. That's a scary premise for the rest of the NFC, even after another loss to Detroit.

5. Seattle Seahawks
The Seattle Seahawks deserve some praise for how they've started their 2024 campaign under first year head coach Mike Macdonald. It's hard to figure out what this team is with how inconsistent they've been on a weekly basis. After the Packers in our top 4, you can make the case for a multitude of teams for the fifth ranking. Seattle sweeping Arizona makes their case easier.

6. Washington Commanders
It's impossible to not be impressed with what we've seen from the Washington Commanders early on. Jayden Daniels looks like the real deal, and the Commanders are being productive in the standings. Are we seeing the Commanders back on the rise after another win in Week 13? Will they come out firing after the bye?

NFC Championship Winner 2024-25: +2200
7. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have shown us the good and the bad through Week 14. With the struggles of the Falcons, the Buccaneers are right in the drivers seat for the NFC South crown.

8. Los Angeles Rams
Credit to the Los Angeles Rams, it would have been easy to give up on the season with the amount of injuries they've had. They haven't done that, which is a good sign they can figure things out if they eventually get healthy. Can they stay in the mix in this very winnable NFC West? A major upset against Buffalo didn't hurt their chances.

9. Atlanta Falcons
Expectations remain high for the Atlanta Falcons this year. It's been a mixed bag early on in terms of their success, but the pieces are there for the Falcons to make a run at a playoff spot or the NFC South crown. In saying that, four losses in a row have put rain clouds all over this team.

10. Arizona Cardinals
The Arizona Cardinals have multiple weapons on offense, but their defense leaves a lot to be desired. The Cardinals have a lot of talent, but they continue to play themselves out of the division race.

11. San Francisco 49ers
The San Francisco 49ers look old. This isn't something we saw coming this season, but it's exactly what's transpired. The 49ers picked up a much needed win in Week 14. Can they find some momentum and make a stretch run?

NFC Championship Winner 2024-25: +5500
12. New Orleans Saints
How much of a difference will firing the head coach make? Let's see how the team responds over the next few weeks. The Saints have some nice pieces, but there aren't enough of them to really make noise in the NFC.

NFC Championship Winner 2024-25: +55000
13. Dallas Cowboys
Everything that could possibly go wrong in Dallas this year has. Will this be the offseason that the Cowboys make some real changes? You have to think so at this stage in the season. The Cowboys have been playing with some pride down the stretch. How long will that last?
14. Carolina Panthers
Although the Carolina Panthers have performed better of late, it's still difficult to be confident in what this group has accomplished. The Panthers might just have their franchise quarterback after all. Patience is key.

15. Chicago Bears
The Chicago Bears continue to get in their own way. After baffling clock management on Thanksgiving, the Bears fired head coach Matt Eberflus. There was no new coach bump for the Bears in Week 14 against the 49ers.

NFC Championship Winner 2024-25: +100000
16. New York Giants
There are some real pieces on the New York Giants roster worthy of getting excited about. The issue is that this team is still missing a franchise quarterback. Will they ultimately land that guy in the 2025 NFL Draft? It appears as though that might just be becoming more of a reality with each result down the stretch.
