There is no doubt about it now: The Giants are the worst team in the NFL.
Not only have the Giants lost a franchise record 10 straight games … not only did they get annihilated by the same Falcons who one week earlier needed to go the distance to edge the hapless Raiders … but they also are the last remaining team with fewer than three wins.
The debate is only slightly more complicated at the top. Because, just like the Giants are alone in having two wins, the Chiefs are alone in having 14 wins.
Make your cases for the Bills, Lions or Vikings, but there is no denying that the two-time defending Super Bowl champions still know how to get the job done.
With the top and bottom spots settled, here are The Post’s NFL power rankings for Week 17:
1. Chiefs 14-1 (2)
What sprained ankle? An injured Patrick Mahomes didn’t miss any time despite the quick turnaround between games, throwing for one touchdown and running for another in a 27-19 win against the Texans. Marquise Brown had five catches for 45 yards in his season debut. The Chiefs are one win (or one Bills loss) away from clinching the AFC’s No. 1 seed in the playoffs.
2. Bills 12-3 (3)
A rare quiet game by Josh Allen was survivable because James Cook rushed for 100 yards and scored two touchdowns, and the defense forced three second-half takeaways in a 24-21 win against the Patriots. Taron Johnson recovered a fumble in the end zone for a fourth-quarter touchdown as the Bills scored 24 straight points after falling behind 14-0.
3. Lions 13-2 (4)
The injury-ravaged Lions had no problem getting past the Bears, 34-17, as Jared Goff threw three touchdown passes. Jameson Williams notched a career-high 143 receiving yards, including an 82-yard touchdown, and Jahmyr Gibbs ran for 109 yards and a touchdown without his backfield mate David Montgomery. The Lions set single-season franchise records for wins, road wins (seven) and points scored (493).
4. Vikings 13-2 (5)
Justin Jefferson caught a touchdown pass with less than four minutes remaining to make the difference in a 27-24 comeback victory against the Seahawks, who had taken the lead only 30 seconds earlier. Jefferson finished with 10 catches for 148 yards and two touchdowns. Kevin O’Connell is the first coach in franchise history with multiple 13-win seasons — only three years into his tenure.
5. Eagles 12-3 (1)
Saquon Barkley might win NFL MVP honors, but it was clear how valuable Jalen Hurts is during a 36-33 loss to the Commanders. As Hurts missed most of the game with a concussion, Kenny Pickett threw a touchdown and an interception. Barkley ran for 150 yards and two touchdowns. DeVonta Smith had a devastating drop that gave life to the Commanders’ late comeback.
6. Packers 11-4 (6)
Playoff-berth-clinching wins don’t come any easier than it looked in a 34-0 rout of the Saints. Josh Jacobs, Emanuel Wilson and Chris Brooks all scored rushing touchdowns as part of a 39-carry, 188-yard effort on the ground in the 34-degree evening cold. The defense harassed rookie quarterback Spencer Rattler into an interception, a fumble and three sacks.
7. Ravens 10-5 (8)
After a rare interception thrown by Lamar Jackson, teammate Marlon Humphrey responded with an interception of his own … and he returned his for a fourth-quarter touchdown in a 31-17 win against the Steelers. Jackson threw three touchdown passes and the Ravens picked up three of their own fumbles to avert disaster and clinch a playoff berth.
8. Steelers 10-5 (7)
With a chance to clinch the AFC North title, the Steelers instead dropped a second straight game. Russell Wilson had two costly turnovers — the aforementioned pick-six and a lost fumble just shy of the goal line as he tried to make a cut and score a touchdown. It was a quiet game for T.J. Watt, who was playing on a freshly injured ankle.
9. Commanders 10-5 (11)
Jayden Daniels became the first Washington quarterback since 1991 to throw five touchdown passes, including the game-winner with six seconds remaining, to beat the Eagles. Jamison Crowder caught the first and last of those scores, and Olamide Zaccheaus caught two others. The Commanders erased deficits of 14-0 seven minutes into the game and 27-14 at the start of the fourth quarter.
10. Chargers 9-6 (13)
How’s this for an unusual turning point? The Chargers scored on the NFL’s first successful fair-catch kick field goal in 48 years at the end of the first half to spark a 34-27 second-half comeback win against the Broncos. Gus Edwards, Derius Davis and Hassan Davis scored touchdowns in the final 18 minutes of the game.
11. Broncos 9-6 (9)
12. Texans 9-6 (10)
13. Rams 9-6 (14)
14. Buccaneers 8-7 (12)
15. Seahawks 8-7 (15)
16. Falcons 8-7 (17)
17. Dolphins 7-8 (18)
18. Bengals 7-8 (20)
19. Cardinals 7-8 (16)
20. Cowboys 7-8 (23)
21. Colts 7-8 (21)
22. 49ers 6-9 (19)
23. Panthers 4-11 (27)
24. Saints 5-10 (22)
25. Jets 4-11 (24)
Thanks to three failed fourth-down attempts, a missed field goal and many clock-chewing drives, the Jets became the second NFL team since 1940 to score fewer than 10 points despite not punting. The end result was, of course, a 19-9 loss to the Rams. Aaron Rodgers led a 99-yard touchdown drive but also lost a fumble on a sack that set up the Rams’ decisive touchdown.
26. Bears 4-11 (25)
27. Browns 3-12 (26)
28. Raiders 3-12 (31)
29. Jaguars 3-12 (28)
30. Titans 3-12 (29)
31. Patriots 3-12 (30)
32. Giants 2-13 (32)
Drew Lock threw two interceptions that were returned for touchdowns in a 34-7 loss to the Falcons, who made a smooth transition from Kirk Cousins to rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr. The NFL’s lowest-scoring offense struck again despite Tyrone Tracy Jr.’s toe-tapping touchdown catch. And the league’s worst rushing defense allowed 127 yards and two scores on the ground.
