Tom Brady names the best NFL team after Week 1

Tom Brady has unveiled his first NFL power rankings of the 2026 season after an opening week that produced several convincing performances across the league. The former quarterback based his list on what teams showed in Week 1 rather than preseason expectations.

Brady's top 10 includes the Cincinnati Bengals, Detroit Lions, Jacksonville Jaguars, Kansas City Chiefs, Philadelphia Eagles, Buffalo Bills, Baltimore Ravens, San Francisco 49ers, Chicago Bears and Seattle Seahawks. Every team on the list opened the season with a victory, according to Brady's criteria.
