Week 11 NFL Power Rankings: The Lions Are Now An Elite NFC Contender

Mario Mergola ranks every team in the NFL with the Detroit Lions proving they are an elite NFC team.

30. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (LW: 29)

A quarterback change and a division home game still wasn’t enough for the hapless Tampa Bay Buccaneers to end their four-game losing streak. Despite veteran quarterback Josh McCown eclipsing 300 yards passing — against the league’s worst pass defense — the Buccaneers lost their fifth consecutive game at the hands of the visiting Falcons and now travel to Washington to play a Redskins team coming off their bye week. The only significance of Buccaneers’ games now becomes next year’s potential draft position.
