NFL power rankings: Patriots still sit at No. 1 in Week 8

We are now seven weeks into the NFL season and it's pretty clear what the overall theme has become: the league is straight-up bizarre.

After those eight solid clubs, there's another seven who could go either way. We're not sure if they'll make a playoff push or continue to disappoint and eventually play for an OK draft pick.

Then, well, there's the cellar -- and it's kind of packed. Exactly half the league is already struggling to stay in the race or has zero shot.
