NFL Power Rankings: Cowboys hold strong, Rams slide after loss
Cowboys maintain top spot after win over Giants
The Dallas Cowboys held onto their top spot in the NFL Power Rankings after a hard-fought 23-16 win over the New York Giants in Week 15. The Cowboys improved to 12-2 with the victory, and they are now just one win away from clinching the NFC East division title.
The Cowboys' offense was led by running back Ezekiel Elliott, who rushed for 130 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries. Quarterback Dak Prescott also had a solid game, completing 22 of 30 passes for 261 yards and a touchdown.
Rams slide after loss to Cardinals
The Los Angeles Rams dropped to No. 2 in the Power Rankings after a disappointing 27-17 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 15. The Rams' offense struggled throughout the game, and quarterback Matthew Stafford was sacked six times.
The Rams' defense also had a poor performance, allowing the Cardinals to score 27 points. The Rams are now 10-4 on the season, and they are in danger of losing the NFC West division title to the San Francisco 49ers.
Rest of the top five
The rest of the top five in the Power Rankings remained the same this week. The Kansas City Chiefs are No. 3, the Buffalo Bills are No. 4, and the Cincinnati Bengals are No. 5.
Cowboys vs. Rams next week
The Cowboys and Rams will face off in a highly anticipated matchup in Week 16. The game will be played in Dallas, and it could have a major impact on the NFC playoff race.
The Cowboys are currently the No. 1 seed in the NFC, while the Rams are the No. 2 seed. A win for the Cowboys would give them a two-game lead over the Rams in the NFC East, and it would put them in a strong position to win the division.
