Raiders ranked 27th but have playoff chances in power rankings

The Las Vegas Raiders are ranked 27th in recent NFL power rankings released by SB Nation. Despite this low placement, they are categorized among teams that still have a chance to make the playoffs. The rankings come in the wake of a significant trade, with Myles Garrett leaving the Cleveland Browns for the Los Angeles Rams. The three other teams in the AFC West have been listed among playoff favorites or Super Bowl contenders.
