"One week down, and already the NFL looks like complete chaos. Some teams backed up the hype, others fell flat on their face, and a few came out swinging harder than anyone could have expected. After stacking Week 1 results against my preseason rankings, there's already plenty of movement: Some risers, some fallers, and a couple of teams reminding us not to overreact."
"Jordan Love looks settled, the ground game is effective, and that defense is flying around. The NFC might still run through Philly, but the Packers aren't going anywhere. Not the cleanest game, but Jalen Hurts did enough, and the roster is still the most complete in the NFC. That first showing, albeit without Jalen Carter, was rough, though. Lamar looked sharp, the defense locked in, and they took care of business...until it was time to salt the game away."
Week 1 produced league-wide volatility with several teams exceeding expectations while others stumbled, creating immediate movement in early rankings. The Bills and Josh Allen imposed their will and found late-game resilience against Baltimore, framing them as an early top team. The Packers showed balance and defensive energy under Jordan Love. Philadelphia retains a deep roster despite an imperfect opener and the absence of Jalen Carter. Baltimore and other teams displayed promising moments but struggled to close games. Kansas City remains dangerous with Patrick Mahomes despite receiver inconsistencies. Washington and Jayden Daniels delivered a statement performance, and the Chargers' defense impressed behind Justin Herbert.
