NFL power rankings: Where 49ers stand after big win vs. Seahawks originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area
There are levels to the NFL heirarchy. There are true Super Bowl contenders and then there are pretenders.
And then there’s the Dallas Cowboys.
It was a litmus test week for some of the league’s top teams, and while some proved themselves to be a worthy competitor, others, like the aformentioned organization, stunk up the joint against a formiddable foe.
Here’s where the 49ers and the rest of the league stand leading up to “Monday Night Football.”
32. Tennessee Titans (Last week: 32)
Record: 1-4
I don’t know what else to say about Will Levis at this point. They’re in tank mode, that’s for sure.
31. Carolina Panthers (Last week: 31)
Record: 1-5
More watchable football from Andy Dalton, and for that, I appreciate him.

Record: 2-3 (Bye week)
They can’t do much of anything offensively and this downward spiral has no end in sight as long as Tua Tagovailoa remains out.
26. Las Vegas Raiders (Last week: 26)
Record: 2-4
Come on, embrace the tank. You know you want to. Go draft yourself a quarterback.
25. Cleveland Browns (Last week: 25)
Record: 1-5
I could have copy-pasted the same blurb about this offense being unwatchable in each of the first six weeks and it would have been correct each time. Would you blame me if I did so moving forward?
24. Los Angeles Rams (Last week: 24)
Record: 1-4 (Bye week)
