2019 Week 11 Patriots Power Rankings

They’re BACK, baby!

Rankings math is hard. The Patriots in the midst of an undefeated winning streak get dropped into second place by a couple of the experts. They lose a game and drop some more (Okay, I get that part.) Then they have a bye week, don’t play at all, and somehow order is restored - they get pulled back up by ten different rankers to the No. 1 spot. Of course, it’s not rocket science to observe how a few of the top-ranked teams didn’t quite put in the kind of Week 10 performance that would beat a Bill Belichick team when the going gets tough.
