2018 NFL Power Rankings Week 9
Our power rankings are simple, to be the man you gotta beat the man. It is based solely on the week's results. If you beat a higher ranked team, you swap positions regardless of records or other outcomes.
Don't look now but the Texans are on a 6 game winning streak and could very well extend that steak to 11 with only one of there next five games coming against a team with a winning record. The Chargers are our number one team and are currently riding a five game winning streak.
The only change in the top 10 comes with the Falcons swapping places with previous #5, Washington in a 38-14 victory that saw Julio Jones finally record his first touchdown of the season. The last undefeated team finally fell with the Saints hanging on late against the Los Angeles Rams in a game that saw Michael Thomas seal the deal before pulling out an iconic celebration. One thing for sure is that the NFC this season might be the toughest conference we have ever seen.
Tune in next week to see how our power rankings shake up.
