Week 13 of the NFL saw some contenders make statements, while others didn’t meet expectations, and because of it, they move down these rankings. Here are the top 8 Super Bowl contenders heading into week 14.
Week 13 Super Bowl Rankings
1. Denver Broncos
Being able to battle back with a no-quit attitude and win games like the Broncos have this season is exactly why this team is scary. They may be down, but they are never out. Bo Nix is incredibly dynamic, and although they have struggled at times defensively, overall, they still are one of the top units in football. They lead the league in sacks, and that seems to be a factor for them every week.
2. Los Angeles Rams
Their loss in Week 13 was a tough one. They went on the road, and the defense allowed over 30 points to an inconsistent Panthers team. We may be able to chalk that up to them being a West Coast team heading East for an early start, but overall, it was a poor performance. They do, however, have a Super Bowl-winning QB in Matthew Stafford, who is playing at an MVP level, and a Super Bowl-winning coach in Sean McVay. That makes them the ultimate contender this season.
