If you haven't been paying attention, there's a storm a-brewin' in Oklahoma City. Clearly, this team is done tanking, but are we underrating how capable this team is? One of the youngest teams in league history that plays hard with an unselfish and fluid brand of basketball. 10th in defensive rating. 14th in offensive rating. With less than a month...
2020 NFL Power Rankings Week 9
Here at the ICT Zone, our power rankings are based on a very simple philosophy. "To be the man you gotta beat the man", if a lower ranked team beats a higher ranked team, then the two teams automatically swap spots regardless of results from prior weeks.

Last week, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were the number 1 team in the league and they retain that spot. It was a closer call than many assumed it would be and that might be concerning going forward. The Steelers come in at second place, their highest spot all season after defeating the Baltimore Ravens. But the big mover of the week are the Cincinnati Bengals, all the way at 7th from 25th after defeating previous number 7, the Tennessee Titans.
Only time will tell if this upcoming week will give us more surprises.

1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
(6-2)
For a second there it looked like Eli Manning versus Tom Brady.

2. Pittsburgh Steelers +3
(7-0)
Steelers fans probably want me to continue hating on this team.

3. Arizona Cardinals
(5-2)
Curious to see what the next step is for this team.

4. Kansas City Chiefs
(7-1)
Not sure how Patrick Mahomes is not in the MVP race.

5. Baltimore Ravens -3
(5-2)
Uh oh, looks like the NFL has enough film on Lamar Jackson.

6. New Orleans Saints
(5-2)
Alvin Kamara is the best player on this team.

7. Cincinnati Bengals +18
(2-5-1)
That win showed a lot of promise.

8. Denver Broncos
(3-4)
Still hard to get a clear read on Drew Locke but that was impressive.

9. Las Vegas Raiders
(4-3)
Solid win for a team that needs it.

10. Buffalo Bills
(6-2)
Your new AFC East champs.

11. Indianapolis Colts +2
(5-2)
Wow, 5 and 2 is not what I expected.

12. Cleveland Browns
(5-3)
You have to feel for Odell Beckham Jr.

13. Detroit Lions -2
(3-4)
Just get to 4 and 4.

14. Miami Dolphins +2
(4-3)
This year's quarterback class looks absolutely incredible.

15. Seattle Seahawks +3
(6-1)
Back on track.

16. Los Angeles Rans -2
(5-3)
Yeah, they're just really not that good at all.

17. Atlanta Falcons +7
(2-6)
Lets goooo, changing the narrative one retained lead at a time.

18. San Francisco 49ers -3
(4-4)
This team DESPERATELY needs a bye week.

19. Philadelphia Eagles
(3-4-1)
Keep beating NFC East opponents and you'll get in the playoffs.

20. New York Giants
(1-7)
Flashes of greatness from Daniel Jones.



23. Minnesota vikings +7
(2-5)
That was an extremely random win.

24. Carolina Panthers -7
(3-5)
Not sure if Bridgewater is the answer long term.

25. Tennessee Titans -18
(5-2)
That was not the kind of loss you want on your resume.

26. New York Jets
(0-8)
Just hang in there, you're already halfway through the season.

27. Chicago Bears
(5-3)
They'll probably still get to 10 wins.

28. Dallas Cowboys
(2-6)
Dak Prescott needs a billion dollar contract after this season.

29. Los Angeles Chargers
(2-5)
Still on the Herbert hype train.

30. Green Bay Packers -7
(5-2)
Yeah that's wrap for any super bowl potential.

31. Houston Texans
(1-6)
Might as well trade JJ Watt at this point.

32. Jacksonville Jaguars
(1-6)
I don't even know what to say at this point.

Predicting the 2023 March Madness Champion
Yes- I, the NCAA March Madness guru, am back to save your bracket. If you've kept up with the series, you're probably asking why I consider myself a guru when I'm one for four in my March Madness predictions. First of all, STOP- don't bring that negative energy here. Second, I'd say I'm two and five since you can't prove...
