Sorry for the delay. This is only based on the week 8 results, not the TNF game.
This is Week 9 of the NFL Title Rankings of the 2024 season. See here for last week’s rankings.
9 of the 15 games were upsets. Two of those games resulted in 18 spot jumps.
The Chiefs beat the Bucs to keep the NFL Title Belt and first ranking. The Chiefs will hold the NFL Title Belt until their first loss of the 2024 season. The Broncos will have a chance to take the title belt this Sunday.
The Titans beat the Patriots to move out of last. With the Saints' loss to the Panthers, the Saints are now last. The Saints will have a chance to move out from last when they play the Falcons.

This ranking assumes that there are never any fluke games and all teams are appropriately ranked. If you beat a team that is higher ranked than you, you move ahead of them and they move down one spot. However, other teams can jump in front of teams that are higher ranked than you, moving you further down the rankings.
