New Touchdown Wire power rankings have Cardinals in top 10

Power rankings always vary. In fact two publications in the same family think two different things of the Arizona Cardinals. They come in at No. 5 in USA TODAY’s NFL power rankings entering Week 4.

In the latest rankings from Touchdown Wire’s Nick Wojton, the Cardinals barely crack the top 10, coming in 10th after their Week 3 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.

A win and 3-0 for the first time since 2015 for the Cardinals. But it did take a bit of a rally effort against the Jaguars. Good teams do still win during tough games and the Cards pulled that off.

Of the nine teams ranked ahead of them, only No. 1 — the Los Angeles Rams, whom the Cardinals in Week 4 — is unbeaten.

Even the 1-2 Kansas City Chiefs are ahead of the Cardinals.

It might be hard to believe in the Cardinals after winning in Week 2 because of a missed field goal and after beating the lowly Jaguars, but if they pull off a win against the Rams this weekend or even lose in a close game, they will have to get more love in these rankings next week.

List

Only Rams, Cardinals remain undefeated in NFC West in Week 3
