Power rankings are a lot like college football rankings. If the #8 team in the country beats the #1 team in the country, they don't just swap places. #1 moves down and #8 moves up. There's a chance they cross, but a lot of times they don't. I could see KC dropping to #3 or #4 behind Philly, Buffalo and possibly Dallas. I think the Bengals could rise as high as #5, with San Francisco (despite the win, they're down to their 3rd string QB, that's gotta count for something), Miami and Minnesota being jumped, at least. I think we should jump Dallas too to end at #4, but they just put up gaudy numbers against a bad team and they're "America's team" so I see them staying ahead of us.
