2025 NFL Week 6 Power Rankings & Chiefs - Jaguars Reaction

Interactive Transcript

spk_0 We're listening to draft games network.

spk_0 I can't remember the last time I've seen Trevor Lawrence a run that much and

spk_0 B I guess show that kind of that level of guts or moxie.

spk_0 You're tuned into the Ross Tucker football podcast guiding your gridiron journey

spk_0 none other than your host former NFL lineman Ross Tucker.

spk_0 Oh yeah it is but it's not just any Ross Tucker football podcast it is a

spk_0 power rankings Tuesday which means I will go over every single team in the

spk_0 NFL and let you know exactly where they stack up including your team but first

spk_0 gotta talk about last night's game because it was incredible loved every

spk_0 second of it big show time.

spk_0 The Big Show.

spk_0 Alright Ross the Jaguars they got a massive statement when at home against

spk_0 the Kansas City Chiefs 31-28 they're now four and one.

spk_0 I can't tell you how happy it makes me when there's a prime time game and it's

spk_0 like that and we had a good weekend of prime time games.

spk_0 The first game was the one I called on the radio for Westwood one Niners Rams

spk_0 goes into overtime that was awesome then Sunday night Patriots bills Patriots

spk_0 get the big upset and that was the back and forth game and then last night

spk_0 might have been the best one.

spk_0 That was so entertaining on so many levels both quarterbacks really hurt the

spk_0 other team with their legs.

spk_0 I would say especially Trevor Lawrence I can't remember the last time I've seen

spk_0 Trevor Lawrence a run that much and B I guess show that kind of that level of

spk_0 guts or moxie you know that reminded you more of like the Trevor Lawrence at

spk_0 Clemson that was super impressive you know it really got interesting I mean

spk_0 first of all the chief score touchdown and it was a little questionable whether

spk_0 it was offensive passenger appearance or not on the touchdown by Travis Kelsey one

spk_0 of several calls by the way that were I guess hotly contested or very much

spk_0 debated but that was one the questionable touchdown because it did look like

spk_0 offensive passenger appearance on a pick but whatever Lawrence then had a

spk_0 brutal brutal fumble and he wasn't really doing anything wrong but the Jaguars

spk_0 are on the half yard line and for those of you who didn't get chance to watch

spk_0 it or even see the highlights Lawrence tried to do like the Drew breeze

spk_0 reach the ball over the goal line over the top jump over the top and right when

spk_0 it was about to break the plane Nick Bolton knocked it out of his hands which

spk_0 was just gigantic so I think it was gonna go the Jags were gonna go up 14-7

spk_0 at that point but instead or no Jags were gonna tie it 7-7 I think and then

spk_0 instead the chiefs go all the way the other way to go up 14-0 I think as my

spk_0 homes was making major plays off schedule chunk plays like you always does but

spk_0 we we had some of the most eventful plays at the one yard line you will ever

spk_0 see one was the Lawrence fumble then Jags linebacker Devon Lloyd had a 99

spk_0 yard pick six 99 yards it was so reminiscent of James Harrison and that

spk_0 Super Bowl for this team was against the Cardinals it was crazy terrific job by

spk_0 Devon Lloyd so so fun then the Jags are up by touch them they have the ball I

spk_0 really have no idea what happened I think it was Parker Washington that was

spk_0 running like a slant and as he's running an in breaking route a DB for the

spk_0 chiefs just totally runs him over as the balls in the air and there was no

spk_0 call no call so the ball went right to a chiefs defender for interception and

spk_0 then next thing you know the chiefs tied up 21-21 my homes does an

spk_0 unbelievable job with his legs and typical my homes magic I'm watching it with my

spk_0 wife saying here we go you know what's gonna happen and my homes made plays with

spk_0 leg with his arms like he always does to go up 28-24 but a funny thing happened

spk_0 Trevor Lawrence got it done I was skeptical about whether or not he could come

spk_0 up big in a big moment he did he uses legs multiple times he threw a perfect

spk_0 pass down the sideline to Brian Thomas they got a past interference penalty

spk_0 which I thought was the right call against Chamari Conor and then if you didn't

spk_0 see this they're on the one yard line they have no time out-slifed it's like

spk_0 28 seconds Trevor Lawrence get stepped on by his guard falls down tries to get

spk_0 up falls down again gets up and runs in for the game winning touchdown it was I

spk_0 mean that was like a that was an under the radar top five game of the year if you

spk_0 think about all of the wild plays that happened in it and ultimately as Jack

spk_0 said the Jaguars get just a tremendous tremendous win the Jaguars are 4-1 and

spk_0 the people down in Duval belief it's time for the all-important power rankings

spk_0 the worst team in the history of the NFL is we're gonna kick our all-fart power

spk_0 rankings with the only winless team left in football the Jets 32 and because of

spk_0 the way the last couple games have gone against teams that aren't even that good

spk_0 I think the Jets deserve to be last they have no wins and they're getting blown

spk_0 out by Cowboys team that has nobody but they get beat by a Dolphins team which is

spk_0 not very good it's it's I would say the Jets are in my opinion surprisingly bad

spk_0 I was not expecting that despite the win the Titans are 31st well they're not

spk_0 very good I mean that you know they got extremely fortunate in multiple ways to

spk_0 win the game but Jeffrey Simmons plays as you know what every week as you know what

spk_0 off every week and you had to go ahead and continue to battle and continue to

spk_0 play to get that win which which is exactly what they did 30th laws Vegas

spk_0 Raiders you know I don't I don't know if these guys are cursed or what but it's

spk_0 just it's hard to believe how bad you know Smith is playing how bad this team's

spk_0 playing although I guess the week prior they really could have won against the

spk_0 Bears but you know all of the positive feelings they had about having a

spk_0 quarterback like Gino and a coach like Pete Carroll feels like it's kind of

spk_0 gone they're already making changes they cut starting linebacker germane

spk_0 Pratt I'm not sure what was going on there but it seems like it was maybe like

spk_0 an off the field thing I don't know or or at least you know some type of

spk_0 personality conflict because it's weird I think it was leading them in tackles

spk_0 but they did it 29th Miami dolphins Miami dolphins Miami dolphins Miami dolphins

spk_0 not so good that was just a horrendous loss and that's the type of loss that you

spk_0 just can't have if you're Mike McDaniel some of these other ones against good

spk_0 teams you can live with but up 17 nothing on the Carolina Panthers you can't

spk_0 lose that game does not seem like Mike McDaniel is long for that for that

spk_0 job this year unfortunately the Saints they're 28th well and here's the thing

spk_0 they had that one game in Seattle where they were really bad and they really

spk_0 laid an egg other than that David least been competitive David least been

spk_0 reputable I feel expensive Ratler has played good enough most of the time and

spk_0 they're not a good team they need to get what five straight turnovers to beat

spk_0 the Giants which is unlikely and not gonna happen very often but they did it

spk_0 they got it done and as we'll talk about on the even money betting podcast this

spk_0 morning they're one by two scores which was not good for myself and Steve

spk_0 Fasick and Artis or Leg but they got it done 27th is Caroline Panthers doesn't

spk_0 feel like they're very good does it you know they kudos to them for Rico

spk_0 Dowdell playing that well and I mean he was a man possessed he could have been

spk_0 the 11 Oaks dot com slash Ross 11 Oaks Farms dot com slash Ross he could have

spk_0 been the the Hungry's performance because that was super impressive from him but

spk_0 I gave it to the Titans but that was I mean he's the primary reason they won

spk_0 the game Giants they're up next at 26 wait what how are they ahead of the

spk_0 Saints I'll tell you how Giants have a pretty quality win over the

spk_0 Chargers and you know yes the Giants lost the game and the Giants turn it over

spk_0 five straight times but they're better than that right that's not who they are

spk_0 and they probably had a great chance to win the game if they don't turn it

spk_0 over five straight times love what I'm seeing from Skataboo see some good

spk_0 things from Jackson Dart so they're I mean they're a bad team but they're one of

spk_0 the better bad teams up next to 25 is the Cincinnati Bengals so they're

spk_0 head coach Zach Taylor intimated at potentially considering a quarterback

spk_0 change I don't even know I'm trying to remember who the other guys are that that

spk_0 he brought in I don't even know who else they brought in two guys at the same

spk_0 time it was like a older guy and Sean Clifford I'm gonna pull it up real quick

spk_0 the older guy is well they've got Brett Ripon there and I think they have two

spk_0 more on the practice squad and Sean Clifford and Mike White I don't think he's

spk_0 gonna I don't think he's gonna make a switch to Brett Ripon but maybe stay in

spk_0 AOC North of the Browns at 24 it's funny because some of these seem like the

spk_0 Browns their fans probably think that they're so bad and they're so

spk_0 disgusted because and they only have one win there's a bunch of teams I think

spk_0 are worse than them I told you I was encouraged by a lot of the things I saw

spk_0 from Dylan Gabriel the Browns ran it very well we know they have a stellar

spk_0 defense I would actually say their defense let them down in that game which is

spk_0 good as their defense is and is banged up as the Vikings O line was that's a game

spk_0 that you need to win if you're the Browns defense you need to close that game out

spk_0 more great stuff right after this it's game time and by that it means time for

spk_0 you guys to at least get the app on your phone scroll through and see what

spk_0 events are in your area I think over the last couple weeks I've gotten four or

spk_0 five emails from you guys using my code Ross which is awesome I love it my wife

spk_0 guys that are doing this and showing me how many points you're racking up

spk_0 which is very cool let's see you can get the most points rewards.lebatUSA.com

spk_0 to sign up 23rd is Arizona Cardinals well John again and apologized for how he

spk_0 treated Amari de Mercado on the sideline but I think I would have had a tough

spk_0 time not doing the same thing I mean that is that game very likely watch how

spk_0 this thing plays out the end that game very likely is going to be what determines

spk_0 the Cardinals not making the playoff at the end of the year and they know it

spk_0 every one of these games is precious you can maybe live with a late loss to

spk_0 the sea ox or the Niners by a field goal close game but you can't lose a home

spk_0 to the Titans cannot happen. 22nd the Bears. The Bears had a buy so not much to

spk_0 say about the Bears other than I will get a chance to see them in person on

spk_0 Monday night calling that game on Westwood one looking forward to it and we'll

spk_0 see what the Bears bring to the table. This is the lowest I've ever seen them

spk_0 the Ravens at 21. I'm gonna use you've been doing this Jack. I think this is our

spk_0 fourth season now. I saw halfway through the 20th the Arizona Superbowl 57.

spk_0 Man that went fast that went really fast so you're right this is our fourth

spk_0 season so the Ravens I still think they'll be in the mix I still think they have a

spk_0 great chance to win the AFC North but they got to get healthier and they can't

spk_0 keep losing these games they're gonna fall too far behind the Steelers the

spk_0 good news is sorry Jack the good news is they get to play the Steelers twice

spk_0 still now 20th is the New England Patriots and rising I thought they had a

spk_0 chance to be the West Shore home.com slash Ross most improved team but they are on

spk_0 the rise for sure that was an impressive performance by the Patriots to get a

spk_0 win at Buffalo the the the thing about wins like that we're talking about the

spk_0 Jags earlier or now the Patriots we'll talk about the Broncos you get those

spk_0 big wins it's just the belief it fosters throughout the entire organization the

spk_0 positive vibes that hey we can do this for teams that haven't been haven't been

spk_0 at that level in a while it means a lot. Next up is the Minnesota Vikings at 19.

spk_0 Let me hear you try to do it first. The Minnesota Vikings. It's pretty good.

spk_0 The Minnesota Vikings. New man on the Minnesota Vikings. So that was a gigantic

spk_0 win for them against the Browns you know we'll see what happens after the buy

spk_0 for them after the buy they play against the Eagles. Carson wins against the

spk_0 Eagles that would really be something I mean that would be wild if it happens

spk_0 but for him to get them that win against the Browns in that fashion not all

spk_0 wins are created equal you get to come from behind and win against maybe the

spk_0 best defense and football with your backup quarterback in Europe that is just

spk_0 immense. Team on rock in this episode is Atlanta Falcons at 18.

spk_0 Is that a Tony Gonzalez Jersey? It is a Tony Gonzalez Jersey. I'm not a fan of that.

spk_0 I'm not a fan of like Tony Gonzalez is a chief Tony Gonzalez like he's known as a

spk_0 chief I know he played however many years at the end for the Falcons but I think

spk_0 it's weird I get it but I feel like if you're gonna have a Tony Gonzalez Jersey

spk_0 you should have a Tony Gonzalez chiefs Jersey but you do it more from a

spk_0 fashion perspective right? I like the look of the Jersey he also got like a

spk_0 first team all pro in Atlanta it's not like it was like Raiders Jerry Rice or

spk_0 like Titans. No but also that's you you like having a Tony Gonzalez Falcons

spk_0 Jersey as opposed to a chiefs Jersey you like the uniqueness of it.

spk_0 It advice is not much to say they play Monday night also. 17th Cowboys.

spk_0 Thoroughly impressed by two people. Dak Prescott, Brian Shotneymer. For them

spk_0 to be down four starting linemen to get a win on the road how good the

spk_0 offense has been really in every game other than that Bears game for some

spk_0 unknown reason. It feels like the Cowboys have a chance to be in this thing until

spk_0 the end. Half way mark is the Chargers at 16. San Diego Super

spk_0 Chargers San Diego Chargers. Go charges go. They're falling fast. A couple

spk_0 weeks ago they were seventh and now even more bad news their star rookie

spk_0 running back Omari and Hampton is going on IR which means he's out for at

spk_0 least four weeks. So that is problematic. Very very problematic because

spk_0 Naji Harris was already out. So now it'll be Camani Videl. It just I hate these

spk_0 teams that get so beat up at a fixer season this greatly. 15 Houston Texans.

spk_0 Second week in a row the Texans are making major major moves up the rankings

spk_0 and now they now they kind of have their swagger back. They believe after that

spk_0 fourth quarter against the Titans I know the Ravens were beat up but to score on

spk_0 eight straight possessions or whatever it was some of those throws from

spk_0 Stroud. The AFC South with the Jaguars Texans and Colts going to be a handful. 14

spk_0 Jackson. I because all the other teams in division lost and so the Steelers

spk_0 you know if they if they just play 500 ball the rest of the year they probably

spk_0 win that division. 13 Jackson Jaguars already sort of spoke about the Jags you

spk_0 know that Liam Cohen this era has gotten off to a wonderful start. It's hard to

spk_0 believe their only loss was at Cincinnati and the game that burrow got hurt that

spk_0 they lost that game. Otherwise they'd be on the field. The flip side is they

spk_0 have had some really good turnover fortune but that counts that matters. 12 is

spk_0 the Washington commanders bill. What's Bill's real name? Some I know his last name

spk_0 it's Jack or yeah, Jack or you're gonna get you can see Bill in person Monday

spk_0 night commanders bears that was an impressive win for the commanders to go to

spk_0 the chargers and win by three scores like that. Getting Jay Daniels back obviously

spk_0 gave him a boost. 11 is the Niners. 49ers have been so resilient so impressive

spk_0 despite all these injuries got a little extra time to heal and prepare maybe get

spk_0 some guys back. Mac Jones showing the value of having a competent backup

spk_0 quarterback. 10 is the Denver Broncos. Well I think they deserve it they're close

spk_0 but with that win I'm gonna make them my West Shore home most improved team of

spk_0 the week. Took my first shower by the way yesterday in my new shower it is

spk_0 incredible. Can't recommend West Shore home enough. The experts in bathroom window

spk_0 door and flooring projects visit West Shore home dot com slash Ross to get

spk_0 started. West Shore home remodeling reimagined. There are only two losses. We're

spk_0 devastating walkoff losses on field goals. The Colts won never should have

spk_0 happened. The chargers whatever that happened sometimes but now they go to

spk_0 Philadelphia and get that win and I saw a lot of positives from Bo Nick's in the

spk_0 fourth quarter. He's a gamer he was not great for three quarters but kind of like

spk_0 travel Lawrence last night Nick showed me he can get it done the fourth quarter

spk_0 when he has to. Don't go anywhere got to pay some bills real quick. It's

spk_0 funny Jack I've had you know several people and I've talked about it come over

spk_0 to do work on the house recently. More and more of these guys are wearing

spk_0 brunt workwear which makes all kinds of sense right. I mean I know you got a

spk_0 pair I got a pair. We'll talk about that in upcoming weeks but these are the

spk_0 work boots that you want. Brunt was tired of the workwear brands out there

spk_0 cutting corners. You guys work too hard to be stuck in uncomfortable boots that

spk_0 don't hold up. So here's what they did they built something better boots that

spk_0 are insanely comfortable and built for any job site for a limited time our

spk_0 listeners that's you can get ten dollars off at brunt when you use code Ross at

spk_0 checkout. Just head to bruntworkwear.com use the code Ross you're good to go and

spk_0 after you order they'll ask where you heard about brunt do us a favor and tell

spk_0 them it was this show. I actually get a chance to tailgate this weekend so

spk_0 thanks to my friends from smear and off I will be crafting some delicious

spk_0 cocktails easy to make versatile for any and all fans over 21. Smear and off

spk_0 the world's number one vodka and official vodka partner of the NFL and

spk_0 official vodka partner of this show. Do what I like to do. Grab a bottle of

spk_0 smear and off at your local retailer and head to smear and off.com to find

spk_0 recipes of delicious cocktails perfect for game day. Please drink them

spk_0 responsibly. Smear and off number 21 vodka distilled from grain 40% alcohol

spk_0 by volume. It's the smear and off company New York New York. Please not share

spk_0 with anyone under legal drinking age. Ninth green bay packers.

spk_0 Duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, go pack, go. They had to buy now much

spk_0 you say other than they better have figured some things out because that last

spk_0 game before the buy against the cowboys was ugly. Eight is the sea

spk_0 house ehocks. I didn't drop the sea ox at all just because they lost a thriller

spk_0 to the box at home. I don't think the sea ox are a very solid squad. Seven is the

spk_0 LA Rams. So the Rams dropped a couple of spots primarily because they now are

spk_0 like finding ways to lose. If they had better fuel goal PAT protection you could

spk_0 argue they'd be undefeated right now because they had blocked kick attempts not

spk_0 far kick attempts in both their losses. Six Kansas City chiefs. I didn't drop the

spk_0 chiefs because I don't really feel any differently about them. Now I do think

spk_0 their performance by their defense was a little bit surprising. I would expect more

spk_0 from Spagnolo's defense. I'm a little surprised that the Jags offense was able to

spk_0 score I guess 24 points in that game. Obviously the Lloyd Interceptor intern

spk_0 doesn't count but the offense looks better to me. The chiefs offense looks better

spk_0 which was the biggest concern. Fifth Tampa Bay Buck Niers. Baker Mayfield's

spk_0 probably the MVP of the league to this point and the box have had a terrific

spk_0 terrific start to the year. Only loss was to Philly and they had a blocked kick

spk_0 return for a touchdown on that game. The box even with the injuries you know

spk_0 they're they're they're going to be a force to be reckoned with because they're

spk_0 going to get healthier everywhere. Fourth Buffalo Bills. Bills dropped a couple

spk_0 spots because they hadn't really looked all that impressive in their wins

spk_0 against bad teams. Jets and dolphins and Saints. You know you could kind of

spk_0 tell it felt like something was a little bit off and well it was and they showed

spk_0 it in that loss at home to the Patriots. Third thought of Eagles. E-A-G-L-E-S Eagles.

spk_0 It's interesting because it feels like the Eagles won some games that they very

spk_0 easily could have lost and then they just lost a game to the Broncos that they

spk_0 were up by 14 at home very easily could have won. I think they're still solid and

spk_0 I imagine they'll get back on track Thursday night against the Giants. Good

spk_0 thing good news for the Eagles is being able to have a short week and hopefully

spk_0 get that bad taste out of their mouth ASAP. Second highest dive I've ever seen them

spk_0 Indianapolis Colts. The Colts. They're they're this good. They deserve it. I mean

spk_0 they they they are blowing teams out and I don't care who those teams are that's

spk_0 super hard to do in the NFL. They did lose their kicker Spencer Schrader for the

spk_0 year and he had been really good for them so that's not good. Even their loss to

spk_0 the Rams was the two AD Mitchell plays. I'm I'm believing what I'm seeing from

spk_0 the Colts. Ross is number one team which is totally meaningless but it's fun and

spk_0 we'll get many of you incredibly annoyed is and number one is the Detroit Lions.

spk_0 They are my smear and off number one ranked team this year this week presented by

spk_0 smear and off the official vodka sponsor of the National Football League.

spk_0 Smear enough please make responsibly the smear enough coming New York. Vodka 40%

spk_0 alcohol by volume. Kind of hard to believe that the Lions are back at the top

spk_0 after that week one debacle against the Green Bay Packers but they've been that

spk_0 good. They've been that impressive. Now they're losing Terry and Arnold their

spk_0 corner for a while according to head coach Dan Campbell so once again the Lions

spk_0 are going to have a bunch of injuries to overcome but right now it's looking like

spk_0 they can do it. Oh then that even money podcast today I think we're done here.

spk_0 Thanks for tuning into the Ross Tucker football podcast. Make sure to also check out
