Following their 15-10 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 15, the Denver Broncos are now ranked No. 22 in Nate Davis’ latest NFL power rankings for USA TODAY Sports. That’s down five spots from their No. 17 ranking last week.
Here is Davis’ commentary with Denver’s ranking:
Vic Fangio has dialed in his defense, one that’s allowed the fewest first downs and rushing TDs in the league. But there just doesn’t appear to be sufficient offensive firepower for a team charged with sweeping through the AFC West over the final three weeks just to have a shot at postseason.
Elsewhere in the division, the Kansas City Chiefs are ranked No. 2, the Los Angeles Chargers are ranked No. 18 and the Las Vegas Raiders are ranked No. 18. The Broncos have upcoming road games against the Raiders and Chargers before finishing up the season at home against the Chiefs.
The Green Bay Packers are ranked No. 1 this week and the Jacksonville Jaguars are ranked No. 2. To view the complete NFL power rankings entering Week 16, visit USATODAY.com.
