The 2018 RODS rankings have tightened further after a crazy Week 14 where the Rams were held to less than 10 points for the first time in over a year, the Steelers fell to the 2-10 Raiders as only the Steelers know how to do and the Giants put up 40 points without Odell Beckham. As the dust settles, we find the Saints remain top of the rankings for the 4th straight week as they got back on track, easing to a win in Tampa, though the -1.4% grade shows they were far from their best. The Ravens gave the Chiefs’ high powered offense all it could handle in an overtime defeat as they hold onto second place and remain the only team with a top 10 offense, defense and special teams. Da Bears surprising domination of the Rams in the interception fest on Sunday Night sees them leapfrog their NFC rivals, as they posted their highest grade of 2018 (+52.9%), and the second highest grade of Week 14.
At the bottom, the Raiders heroics against the Steelers has not stopped them dropping to bottom of the rankings as their -20.0% grade was bettered by the Cardinals (-15.7%), despite their 17-3 loss to the Lions. The rest of the bottom 5 remain the same, despite wins for the Jets and Lions in Week 14.
