32. New England Patriots

How the mighty have fallen. They’re not even your older brother’s New England Patriots anymore. The Patriots are having an identity crisis in the worst way this season.

31. Tennessee Titans

The team that beat the Patriots, the Tennessee Titans, finally had a good week. However, beating the worst team in the league in overtime doesn’t seem that impressive.

30. New Orleans Saints

The New Orleans Saints lost to the Carolina Panthers and fired their coach the same week. The New Orleans Saints won’t be coming out of the NFL basement anytime soon.

29. Cleveland Browns

Two weeks ago, the Cleveland Browns were celebrating a victory against the Baltimore Ravens. Now they are figuring out how to come back after being dominated by the Chargers. It’s crazy how quickly things can change in the NFL.

28. Jacksonville Jaguars

The Jacksonville Jaguars almost pulled off a massive comeback on Sunday. However, it’s another week where fans are looking at a loss.

27. Carolina Panthers

The Carolina Panthers picked up a huge win against the Saints. But it may be the franchise’s biggest moment this season.

26. Las Vegas Raiders

The Raiders were eliminated by the Cincinnati Bengals 41-10. Things aren’t going well in Las Vegas, which means the franchise could be looking to change head coaches.

25. Miami Dolphins

Even with Tua back at quarterback, the Miami Dolphins couldn’t get over the hump in beating the Buffalo Bills. That kind of sums up Mike McDaniel’s time in Miami.

24. New York Giants

Hey, Daniel Jones finally had a touchdown in a home game. Unfortunately for the Giants, the team still took the loss.

23. Chicago Bear

The Chicago Bears’ torrid start to the season now appears to be nothing more than smoke and mirrors. The Bears are at a crossroads and Week 10 could tell the story of their season.

22. Denver Broncos

The Broncos were decimated by the Baltimore Ravens in Week 9. However, this team is still in a great position to land a Wild Card spot in the AFC.

21. Los Angeles Rams

A typical Matthew Stafford game helped the Rams defeat the Seattle Seahawks in Week 9. Never count out the Rams when Stafford is under center.

20. Dallas Cowboys

The Dallas Cowboys are a Texas-wide mess this season. Injuries and offensive play calls have sent this franchise into a tailspin.

19. Indianapolis Colts

The Colts benched Anthony Richardson due to lack of effort, and even with him, this team still leaves a lot to be desired.

18. Arizona Cardinals

The Cardinals continued their Jekyll and Hyde performance of 2024 with a victory against the Chicago Bears. The win also put Arizona atop the strange NFC West.

17. Cincinnati Bengals

The Bengals continue to show signs of life but against lesser opponents. But you play teams on your schedule, and the Bengals do it and win.

16. New York Jets

Will the Jets actually make a run? Their Thursday night win over the Houston Texans proves that the Aaron Rodgers story may not be over yet.

15. Los Angeles Chargers

The story is that Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert has no weapons on offense. However, Herbert continues to trade and continues to win. These shippers may not be as bad off as you think.

14. Seattle Seahawks

I don’t want to announce the time of death of this magical run that Geno Smith had with the Seahawks. But it feels like the wheels are turning slowly in Seattle.

13. San Francisco 49ers

The 49ers have been dealing with numerous injuries this season, but they received some great news that Christian McCaffrey could make his anticipated debut this week.

12. Philadelphia Eagles

The Eagles almost let a big win slip away in Week 9. However, the key word is almost. The Eagles have problems, but winning can fix that.

11. Green Bay Packers

Jordan Love was visibly injured during the Packers’ rainy loss to the Detroit Lions at Lambeau Field. If Love doesn’t recover this season, it could very well be over for Green Bay.

10. Pittsburgh Steelers

Many people disagree with the Steelers’ decision to sign Russell Wilson after Justin Fields’ excellent start to the season. However, Wilson’s return brought new life to the Steelers offense.

9. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Buccaneers took the Kansas City Chiefs to the wire Monday night, but the offensive injuries are proving too much for Tampa Bay.

8. Houston Texans

The Texans are gearing up for a massive Sunday night showdown with the Lions this week. The game will be a great measuring match for both franchises.

7. Atlanta Falcons

The Falcons are on cruise control in the NFC South. With such a powerful offense, the Falcons could definitely make some noise in the playoffs.

6. Minnesota Vikings

The Vikings got things back on track with their victory Sunday night against the Colts. This team will still be a huge problem for the Lions in the NFC North.

5. Washington Commanders

The Commanders continue to rack up wins, and it’s all because they found their franchise quarterback in Jayden Daniels. The NFC East could soon be up to the commanders for the next decade.

4. Buffalo Bills

The four best teams in the NFL are currently playing like monsters on the men’s side. The Bills have been a wrecking ball and proved it with a last-second win over the Dolphins.

3. Baltimore Ravens

The Ravens trampled the Broncos in Week 9, as quarterback Lamar Jackson continues to outpace any other MVP candidate.

2. Detroit Lions

The Lions went to Lambeau Field, a place where they weren’t supposed to win since quarterback Jared Goff can’t play outside, and did just that: win. This team is coming for the throne. They better not miss.

1. Kansas City Chiefs

The Chiefs have gone undefeated with such ease this season that it should scare the rest of the league. The addition of DeAndre Hopkins doesn’t help matters either. A hat-trick for Kansas City doesn’t seem that far-fetched.
