NFL standings: Patriots Over Eagles At the beginning of the season



[ad_1]

Welcome to the first edition of the MMQB Power Rankings 2018 Survey! You can bookmark this page and visit each Wednesday to complain about your team's list.

We've already released our playoff previews for the entire season, so there should not be too many surprises at the top. This week, four different teams got the number 1 vote. The New England Patriots – who, you may remember, lost the Super Bowl 41-33 against the Eagles – won first place. These Eagles had the highest number of votes in first place, but they still landed in 2nd place. The poll can be fickle like that.

We will have a group of voters from the MMQB team. This week's voters:

Andrew Brandt
Mitch Goldich
Gary Gramling
Jonathan Jones
Kalyn Kahler
