New England Patriots drop in Week 1 NFL Power Rankings
By Nick Ziegler
The New England Patriots got off to a poor start in 2017. Where did they place in our Week 1 NFL Power Rankings?
32.) New York Jets (0-1)
It was not a good start to the 2017 season for the New York Jets. As large underdogs against the Buffalo Bills, the Jets were unable to upset their division rival. As expected, their offense looked very poor. Despite throwing it nearly 40 times, Josh McCown was unable to throw for 200 passing yards. With a non-existent running game as well, it is no surprise to see that the Jets are 0-1.
31.) Indianapolis Colts (0-1)
The Colts find themselves at the bottom of the power rankings after an embarrassing loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Coming into the season, the Colts knew that they would likely be without Andrew Luck for at least a few games. However, they didn’t look prepared at all to be without their star quarterback. Until Luck gets healthy, the Colts are going to be one of the worst teams in the league.
30.) San Francisco 49ers (0-1)
In the 49ers’ home-opener, they were unable to get a win for their new regime running the show. Despite being at home, the 49ers scored just three points, as the Panthers handled them rather easily. Once again, the offense appears like it is going to be a problem for the 49ers this season.
