Seattle's 14-3 mark last year translates directly into the top spot, and the roster-adjusted rating says this was no fluke. The chase pack is thick with NFC West company, as the Rams and 49ers join the Seahawks in the top five, a rare case of one division producing three of the league's best builds at once. Jacksonville and Houston round out that group from the AFC South, while the Patriots sit right there at No. 6 off a 14-3 finish of their own. The real surprise is Indianapolis at No. 7 despite an 8-9 record, a gap between roster grade and results that makes the Colts the most interesting team in this top 10.

| 2 | Los Angeles Rams | 11-6 |
| 3 | Jacksonville Jaguars | 10-7 |
| 4 | Houston Texans | 10-7 |
| 5 | San Francisco 49ers |
