Fox News Digital Sports NFL power rankings after Week 12 of 2024 season

Kenny Albert and Jonathan Vilma break down the Detroit Lions' impressive win over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 12.

The 2024 NFL season has reached its Thanksgiving crossroads.

The good teams will begin to prep for their push to the playoffs. The middle-of-the-road teams will try to map out a way to make the wild-card round. The bad teams will look forward to how they can get better in 2025.

Fans will lock in from here on to see how the rest of the season unfolds. There are three games on Thursday, one game on Friday, a major slate on Sunday and then the Monday night game. There’s plenty of action still to come.

As fans look ahead, let’s take a moment to see how the teams are stacked up going into Week 13 of the regular season.

The Bills are the best team in the AFC — yes, better than the Chiefs — but they’re a game behind the Chiefs for the No. 1 seed. They need Kansas City to stumble to get that top seed.
