• Familiar faces are at the top of the rankings: The Eagles and Lions finished Nos. 1 and 2 in PFF's final offensive line rankings for last season, and they lead the way after Week 1 of the 2024 campaign.

• The Colts take over the No. 1 spot: E ven though quarterback Anthony Richardson dropped back to pass 36 times, the unit allowed just five pressures — one sack and four quarterback hurries — in a loss to the Packers.

While it's still early in the season, and there's ample time for the Lions' offense to reach its full potential, a key to that will be Jared Goff improving, particularly in the situations where he's excelled in the past.

The Cowboys' defense is designed to rush the passer and cover the pass effectively. However, if the offense doesn't establish an early lead — as seen in Week 2 against New Orleans — this defense could struggle to stop the run, potentially derailing their season.

• The Bills enter the top three: Buffalo is arguably the hottest team in the NFL, and the offensive line is propelling that success by providing clean pockets for quarterback Josh Allen.

The Green Bay Packers and Carolina Panthers surge into the top five of PFF's offensive line rankings ahead of Week 5 of the 2024 NFL season.

• The Chiefs move into the No. 4 spot: Guard Joe Thuney earned an 89.4 PFF pass-blocking grade in Week 5, which led all guards.

The Detroit Lions take over at No. 1 in PFF's offensive line rankings ahead of Week 7 of the 2024 NFL season.

The Kansas City Chiefs move up to No. 3 while the Philadelphia Eagles continue to drop in PFF's offensive line rankings ahead of Week 8 of the 2024 NFL season.

• Broncos rise to No. 4 after keeping Panthers at bay: The offensive line allowed just three pressures against Carolina, and its 94.0 PFF pass-blocking efficiency rating was tied for the second highest in the NFL this week.
