NFL Power Rankings: Week #8
Some were treated … and some were tricked. October came to an end and as a parting gift, it left us a Halloween-themed Week 8 of the 2009 NFL season in which fears came to life, demons were exorcised, spells were eradicated and spirits were invocated. Recklessness made you pay if you didn’t buckle up to play. Yes, you had to show toughness if you wanted to stay.
So many story lines, so much drama, so much entertainment around the gridiron. Jake Delhomme made amends with his past by turning the corner on his career; Peyton Manning’s Colts survived a scare with the help of an unlikely source; the Raiders are feeling cursed after being victimized by a familiar executioner; the Titans successfully ran away from their troubles; time stood still for some teams; streaks were terminated; coaches were vindicated; facts defied logic; and, as the main attraction, Brett Favre diligently and methodically drove another stake through the collective heart of Wisconsin. All in all, this was the perfect time to enjoy some garlic fries.
We pull the necessary tricks to treat you to the game that provides some flavor in professional football. Enjoy your NFL’s Chutes ‘N Ladders for Week 8:

You’ve been served. Hope you like the format. Thanks for your contribution.
Power rankings are a waste of time. We all know, at this stage who the best and worst teams are. Other than those two groups, establishing bragging rights for the teams in the middle are a study in some psychological area or field I could care less about.

It’s just for entertainment…and to spark discussion/debate. It’s not meant to enlighten us as to who’s good and who’s not. Like you said, we pretty much all know that already.
I enjoy it. Thanks, Enrique.
thats your opinion, they dont matter, but like in all sports, its interesting and something to talk about
And it’s clearly marked ‘NFL Power Rankings’…so it can easily be skipped by those that don’t want to “waste” their time.
Adam Scfetter is reporting that the Chiefs claimed Chris Chambers on waivers today. They have an open spot for this week with Johnson on suspension. I’m not sure about him. The Chargers wanted to go with young receivers. I guess they don’t have to keep him if he doesn’t work out. If they do keep him the rest of the year it is going to cost them 2.5MM. What do some of you think about claiming him?
Well I think they cant get much worse, might as well take a look at him. Although I was surprised by the power ranking, I guess the Chiefs aren’t the worst team in football but that’s not saying much is it!
