NFC North Dominates Week 10 NFL Power Rankings While Chargers Stay Winless

The latest 2026 NFL power rankings week 10 release highlights a stark divide in the league, with the NFC North establishing unprecedented dominance. Nearly halfway through the 2026 season, all four teams in the division have secured at least six wins and occupy spots in the top 10 of the rankings.

NFC North on a Historic Pace

The current NFC North standings feature a combined divisional record of 25-9, translating to a .735 winning percentage. This performance is currently outpacing the division's historic 2024 campaign.

During that 2024 season, the NFC North was widely described as the best division in NFL history. It finished with a league-record .662 winning percentage (45-23), featuring three teams with at least 11 wins and two that reached at least 14 victories. The 2026 group is now positioned to challenge those numbers as they dominate the top tier of the league.

Chargers and Jets Sit at the Bottom

At the opposite end of the standings, the Los Angeles Chargers remain the NFL's only winless team with an 0-8 record. Despite their struggles, general manager Joe Horitz has declined offers from other teams calling to acquire pieces of the Chargers' roster in exchange for draft picks.

"No thanks. We’re good," Horitz said.

There was a minor positive development for Los Angeles on Sunday, as tests showed quarterback Justin Herbert did not break his middle finger. Additionally, the offense finally found the end zone, scoring their first touchdown since the third quarter of Week 5. The score snapped a streak of 37 consecutive drives without a touchdown.

Meanwhile, the New York Jets dropped to a 2-7 record following a recent loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. The defeat adds to a difficult tenure for head coach Aaron Glenn, who now holds a 5-21 record over his season and a half leading the team.

What Happens Next

The winless Chargers will attempt to secure their first victory of the 2026 season when they face the Baltimore Ravens on Monday at 5:15 p.m. ET.
