Read our NFL Power Rankings Week 16 Last week, the Power Rankings looked at the best-case scenario for all 32 NFL teams, but it’s late in the season and we’ve had to watch so many bad Jets quarterbacks that it’s taken all the optimism out of us. ET Sunday GO DEEPER Jones: NFL officials face impossible task — we or league must make change Sunday: Bye Worst case: They’re living it This team was 13-3 last season and came into this season with similar expectations, but Josh Allen has had some rough moments and the defense has lost pillars Tre’Davious White and Matt Milano for the season because of injury. Up next: vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 1 p.m. Pittsburgh Steelers Sunday: Lost to Arizona Cardinals 24-10 Worst case: Matt Canada wasn’t the problem Pittsburgh got a bump the first week after firing its beleaguered offensive coordinator, but it was back to business as usual Sunday. Up next: vs. Indianapolis Colts, 1 p.m. Minnesota Vikings Sunday: Bye Worst case: Kirk doesn’t come back Since Kirk Cousins became a regular starter in 2015, he is sixth in the NFL in passer rating and 10th in EPA per pass attempt. Up next: vs. Minnesota Vikings, 1 p.m. New Orleans Saints Sunday: Lost to Detroit Lions 33-28 Worst case: Paying their credit card bill The Saints keep kicking the salary-cap can down the road.
