Six teams in the NFL won 10 games last year. Let's rank those teams for the 2025 campaign.
In another different spin in our NFL power rankings, we're now ranking the 10-win teams for the 2025 NFL Season. Winning just one game in this league is difficult, so winning 10 would be downright challenging.
Some teams that won 10 games in 2024 absolutely got worse, but others may have added enough talent to take that next step into contention. The interesting thing with a 10-win team is that they are kind of right in the middle of ascending to greatness but perhaps regressing back to a more average level.
Let's power rank the six 10-win teams from 2024 for the new season in 2025.
NFL Power Rankings: Ranking 10-win teams from 2024 for the new season
6. Seattle Seahawks
The Seattle Seahawks were the only team in the NFL that won double-digit games in the 2024 NFL Season but missed the playoffs, and they seemed to have gotten worse this offseason. I understand why they moved on from Geno Smith in favor of Sam Darnold, but the rest of their offseason moves seemed a bit odd, and now there is a realistic path for this team to finish last in the NFC West.
They could have the worst QB in the division and still may have huge struggles along their offensive line in the 2025 season. It's hard for me to envision this team making the playoffs in the second year of the Mike Macdonald era. Seattle is last in our power rankings.
5. Pittsburgh Steelers
Did the Pittsburgh Steelers get that much better from 2024 with their Aaron Rodgers signing? They're going to be in the same place when the season ends, but at least they took a chance on a QB late in the 2025 NFL Draft. Pittsburgh is fifth in our power rankings for the 2025 season.
4. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are one of the most 'good' teams in the NFL, and it seems like they're going to remain in that tier for the 2025 NFL Season. They did draft Emeka Egbuka in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft, which was a great pick, but the roster just does not scream contender to me at all.
Baker Mayfield is also having to watch yet another new offensive coordinator take things over, so there could be some growing pains there. The Bucs are in the NFC South, so they could have a rather easy shot at winning the division yet again.
This team is fine - they're good, not great.
3. Houston Texans
The overhauled offensive line is going to be the main point of focus for the Houston Texans in the 2025 NFL Season. If the offseason moves work out, this team is going to finally win more than 10 games and could become legitimate contenders, but if not, we could be talking about the same issues next offseason.
A lot of this also falls on the shoulders of third-year QB CJ Stroud. Houston should still be able to win the AFC South in 2025, but they do have some questions to answer. They're third in our power rankings.
2. Denver Broncos
The Denver Broncos added a ton of talent this offseason and could realistically compete for the AFC West title in the 2025 NFL Season. They've got a better roster than the Kansas City Chiefs and could see Bo Nix ascend to new heights this season.
There really isn't much to like with Denver, but they fall just short of being ranked first in our power rankings.
1. Los Angeles Rams
If not for a measly 1-4 start in 2024 due to injuries, the Los Angeles Rams may have won 12 or more games. Adding Davante Adams in free agency was a huge get for the offense, and this team already has a top-10 offensive and defensive line.
Matthew Stafford might be on the best team he's played with in quite some time. Can LA make a Super Bowl run in 2025?
