Week 10 NFL Power Rankings: Patriots Make Major Leap

Rob Gronkowski

4. Detroit Lions (LW: 7)

As hard as it may be to believe, the Lions defense is legitimately dominant. No team has scored more than 24 points all season against Detroit, and the Lions have quickly become one of the most complete teams in the league. At 6-2 and on a bye week, the Lions look to become even more dangerous when Calvin Johnson returns from his injury. Watch out.
