# Marcus Mosher: Mosher publishes his Week 5 NFL power rankings for 2024, with the Chiefs first and Jaguars last. Along the way he predicts the Buccaneers hold onto the NFC South, the Seahawks could steal the NFC West, and the Jaguars will pick inside the top five of the 2025 draft. **Claimed:** Oct 1, 2024 **Pundit:** Marcus Mosher — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/marcus-mosher **Outlet:** The 33rd Team — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/the-33rd-team **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.the33rdteam.com/2024-nfl-week-5-power-rankings-ravens-statement-win-vaults-them-into-top-3/ 3 checkable claims — 1 division winner, 1 power ranking and 1 team draft slot call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet.
