AFC Power Rankings Week 4: Patriots back to No. 1

56. Nine penalties for 69 yards and Adam Jones’ muffed punt hindered the Bengals in their AFC power showdown with the Broncos, and now the Bengals are in a bit of trouble.

Against a Chiefs defense that just held Brandon Marshall and Eric Decker to 58 yards this week, the Steelers need to diversify the aerial attack if they are going to rise in these AFC power rankings.<br />.
