Week 9 of the NFL season is in the books, and that means it’s time for the Week 9 NFL Power Rankings.

A few of the NFL’s top teams slipped up in Week 9, but there are still three teams that are undefeated this season. With every team having played eight games now, it is officially the second half of the season, and it should be a wild race to the playoffs in both conferences with few elite teams.

A win by last week’s 32nd ranked team has resulted in a change at the bottom of the NFL power rankings.

32.) Detroit Lions (1-7)

It has been an awful season for the Lions, and their plane ride back from London was surely a long one. The Lions were a playoff team last season, and in 2015, they have just one win. Detroit can’t run the football, and their defense has allowed the most points per game of any in the NFL. The Packers await the Lions in Week 10, as there is a good chance that the Lions will be 1-8 and in the last place in out NFL power rankings next week.

31.) Cleveland Browns (2-7)

Johnny Manziel got the start on Thursday Night Football against the Bengals, but the Browns suffered a 21-point loss, and the offense didn’t impress. Manziel totaled just 168 passing yards which just simply isn’t going to get it done. Cleveland’s defense continued to struggle in the loss, as they didn’t have much success stopping the run or the pass.
