NFL power rankings for Week 18: Razor-thin lines separating the top five

NFL power rankings for Week 18: Razor-thin lines separating the top five

NY Post
Wednesday, January 1, 2025 9:41 AM GMT

The crazy reality created by this uncharacteristically bloated season is that the team seeded No. 5 in the NFC playoffs might just be the second-best team in the NFL.

Depends on if you favor the powers atop the NFC or AFC.

The winner of the Lions-Vikings battle Sunday night will clinch the NFC North title, the No. 1 seed, a first-round bye and home-field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs.

The loser will be the No. 5 seed and possibly be on the road for the duration of the playoffs.

It is befitting of a season where a razor-thin line separates the five-best teams in the NFL.

You won’t quite find either the Lions or Vikings listed below in the top-two in The Post’s NFL power rankings for Week 18, but who knows how things will look after the final 16 games are played.
