NFL Final Power Rankings: This team ends the 2020 regular season in the top spot
Here is the final edition of the 2020 NFL Power Rankings
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The NFL managed to make it through the 2020 regular season amid the coronavirus pandemic. There were a lot of ups and downs, but all 256 games were played, and now the NFL playoffs are on the horizon.
The Kansas City Chiefs (14-2) sat quarterback Patrick Mahomes, tight end Travis Kelce, and a host of their other top players in the final week of the season since they already locked up the No. 1 seed in the AFC. Even though they lost to AFC West rivals Los Angeles Chargers, the Chiefs finished the 2020 season with the NFL's best record.
Not only did the Chiefs lock up the top spot in the AFC playoffs, but they concluded the regular season as the No. 1 team in the NFL.
