In this week’s Power Rankings Roundup, we continue the theme of “winning is good.”

That’s certainly apparent in the various organizations’ power rankings this week, as the Redskins made some positive moves after their 31-6 thrashing of the Philadelphia Eagles last Sunday at FedExField.

Most of these you’ll see below are also still gushing about the performance of Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III, who completed 14-of-15 passes for 200 yards and four touchdowns — and ran for another 84 yards — against the Eagles. Griffin today III was named NFC Offensive Player of the Week for his efforts.
