NFL Power Rankings on Christmas Day: Who rises, who falls?

12. Seattle Seahawks (8-7)

The Seattle Seahawks have won two games in a row and are right back in the NFC playoffs.  This team doesn’t seem to want to go away, but they do have a QB issue on their hands, as Geno Smith has regressed big-time this year.

11. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (8-7)

How about Baker Mayfield and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers?  They have won four games in a row and Mayfield is playing the best football of his career.  Good for Baker, man.  He was truly tossed aside in Cleveland and seems to have found a new home.

10. Philadelphia Eagles (10-4)

I don’t think the Eagles are very good.  The offense is one dimensional and the defense cannot stop a nosebleed.  Don’t be fooled by their record.  I think the Eagles can go one-and-done in the postseason.

9. Los Angeles Rams (8-7)

I truly would not want to play the Los Angeles Rams right now.  This team is on a hot streak and QB Matthew Stafford is playing out of his mind right now.  This team is pretty young, actually, and they do show it sometimes, but they are dangerous.
