Prisco’s Power Rankings for Week 1, plus picking division winners and Trent Williams holdout appears over

Welcome to the Tuesday edition of the Pick Six newsletter! 

In just over 48 hours, the Ravens and Chiefs will be kicking off the 2024 NFL season with a game in Kansas City, but before that happens, we have about 276 more predictions to get through, so we better get started.

For today, not only do we have the return of Pete Prisco’s Power Rankings, but we also have some divisional predictions and my Week 1 picks. Now that you know what you’re in for, let’s get to the rundown.  

Actually, before we get to the rundown, here’s a quick reminder to anyone who missed Monday’s newsletter. For our Labor Day edition that came out yesterday, I predicted the final record for all 32 teams, and you can check that out by clicking here. All right, now let’s really get to the rundown. 

As always, here’s your daily reminder to tell all your friends and neighbors to sign up for the newsletter. To get them signed up, all you have to do is click here.

After spending the past four months at a hair restoration clinic in Aruba, Pete Prisco is finally back to give us his Power Rankings. The last time we heard from Uncle Pete came all the way back in May when he ranked each team shortly after the NFL Draft. 

Since then, Pete has been busy trying to figure out where each team needs to be ranked to start the 2024 season. In news that won’t surprise anyone, the team that won it all last year is on top of Prisco’s rankings (the Chiefs). On the other hand, in news that might surprise you, the team that the Chiefs played in the Super Bowl (San Francisco) is not the highest-ranked team in the NFC. 

Here’s a look at Prisco’s top five teams heading into Week 1:
