NFL
Power Rankings for Week 9 of the 2009 season. Each week our team of football
experts will pass judgment on each NFL team and rank them accordingly.
There are now only 2 undefeated teams left as the Broncos lost to the Ravens.
The Saints continued their winning ways beating the Falcons and the Colts
knocked off the 49ers in
week 8. Look out for the Titans. Chris Johnson feels that they can run the table
and finish the season 10-0 (read
more).
Teams on the RISE: Texans, Cowboys
Teams on the FALL: Giants, Falcons
We have added a new column to our power rankings table. It is called "Record
Should Be" and it represents what the team's record should probably be had it
not been for some fluke play or a really bad officiating call (i.e. Ed Hochuli
in last year's Chargers / Broncos game). |

* Patriots score twice in final two minutes to pull one out. They
recovered a fumble on the kickoff return.
* Broncos score a 87 yard touchdown on a deflected pass with just 11 seconds
left in the game.
* Dolphins control time of possession for 45 minutes and still lose to the Colts
* Brett Favre throws a 32 yard strike with 2 seconds left to beat the 49ers.
* The Vikings hold on after the Ravens miss a last second FG from 44 yards.
* You shouldn't lose when you rush for over 300 yards and dominate the line
of scrimmage like the Jets did.
