Championship Game Rankings

Mahomes, Henry the difference-makers

The teams have been discussed and projected, and now we can assemble an overall set of rankings. The Kansas City-Tennessee game figures to be a little higher scoring (because Kansas City is involved, and because Tennesee's defense isn't as good as either NFC team.

With San Francisco a candidate to use two different ballcarriers as lead backs, those players don't show up quite as high as the other teams' starters (where there's less potential mystery). Latch onto Raheem Mostert or Tevin Coleman and you're less certain of getting the player who leads the backfield than with Henry, Jones or Williams.

Mahomes, to me, is the slam-dunk best quarterback. Travis Kelce also looks like the clear top option at tight end (though George Kittle could certainly make a run at him), while Davante Adams and Tyreek Hill (pictured) lead the way at wideout.

Here are the rankings, sorted by PPR scoring. Feel free to let me know where you think I'm off the mark.
