NFL power rankings: Where 49ers stand after bad loss to Cardinals originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area

SANTA CLARA — If you’re a fan of offense, this was the week for you.

Nine teams scored 30-plus points and three games combined for 60 or more. Captain Kirk Cousins threw for a whopping 509 passing yards, Joe Burrow tossed five touchdown passes, the 49ers, for the umpteenth time in the Kyle Shanahan Era, blew a fourth-quarter lead and Jayden Daniels continued his Offensive Rookie of the Year and NFL MVP campaigns.

Record: 2-3

28. New York Giants (Last week: 28)

Record: 2-3

Daniel Jones cooked without Malik Nabers. Credit where credit is due. Did Tyrone Tracy just become RB1?

27. Jacksonville Jaguars (Last week: 29)

Record: 1-4

26. Las Vegas Raiders (Last week: 25)

Record: 2-3
