The POWERFUL.  The Chiefs had the Perfect Bye and remained the TOP GUN. The Vikings’ loss dropped them off.  New England won and jumped aboard. The Panthers’ loss dropped them from the list and made way for the Seahawks via the TOP GUN TieBreaker: Win Streak + Division Record + Conference Wins +  Home Record = Seahawks.

The Eagles are ROCKIN’ ROLLERS at Week 9! Can you believe it?  Philadelphia is a perfect example of why this list doesn’t come out until Week 8. But there wouldn’t have been room for them if the Rams had won their fifth in a row. The Chiefs and the Titans kept rollin’ “bye.” But will they still be on a roll next week?

Last week’s FREE FALLERS worked its way to a shorter list this week. But the Jaguars are the only new face. Raiders were in free fall in Weeks 8 & 9 last season, then showed what the NFL is all about. Forget the Super Bowl, but will they go from FREE FALLER to the play-offs again?

The POWERless. A BIG whole to dig out of at Week 9. Especially for the MOST EXCITING team of 2002; Atlanta Falcons. The “Super” Chargers and the Steelers had 2002 seasons that fueled a lot of promise for this year. Sade sings, “Love is stronger than pride,” but in the NFL, Love is NOTHING, pride is EVERYTHING. It will be fun to see if any of these teams have it.
