This is an objective, unbiased ranking in the same vein as the NFL Title Belt. As such, the number 1 ranked team will always be the same as the current NFL Title Belt holder.

Sorry for the delay, folks. I like to get these out before the Thursday game starts. So I dropped the ball here.

This is Week 2 of the NFL Title Rankings of the 2024 season. See here for last week’s rankings.

The Chiefs beat the Bengals 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 Falcons will have a chance to take the title belt on Sunday.

With the Commanders beating the Giants, the Panthers are now last place until their first win of the 2024 season. The Panthers will play the Raiders Sunday to move out from last.

Let me know if you’d like to see more of this, if you’re curious about how I came up with these rankings, or if you noticed any mistakes. Also, the table text seems to not show on dark mode on PC. So let me know if it works for you on dark mode or how to fix that if you know.

Ranking 2024 Wk2 Δ Notes
1 Chiefs -- The Chiefs beat the 49ers to keep the NFL Title Belt and first.
2 Bills --  
3 Steelers --  
4 Seahawks +18 The Seahawks jumped 18 spots by beating the Patriots.
5 Patriots -1  
6 Bengals -1  
7 Raiders +19 The Raiders jumped 19 spots by beating the Ravens.
8 Ravens -2  
9 Texans -2  
10 Saints -- The Saints maintained their rank by beating and jumping the Cowboys.
11 Cowboys -3  
12 Browns -3  
13 Vikings +16 The Vikings jumped 16 spots by beating the 49ers.
14 49ers -3  
15 Bucs -2 The Bucs only dropped 2 spots by beating and jumping the Lions.
16 Lions -4  
17 Bears -3  
18 Jets -- The Jets maintained their rank by beating and jumping the Titans.
19 Titans -4  
20 Dolphins -4  
21 Jaguars -4  
22 Cardinals +1 The Cardinals jumped 1 spots by beating the Rams.
23 Rams -4  
24 Falcons +3 The Falcons jumped 3 spots by beating the Eagles.
25 Eagles -5  
26 Packers -5  
27 Colts -3  
28 Chargers -3  
29 Broncos -1  
30 Commanders +2 The Commanders jumped 2 spots by beating the Giants.
31 Giants -1  
32 Panthers -1 After the Commanders beat Giants, the Panthers fell to last.

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.

Bonus rankings! This one is more straightforward. Teams get points for wins. They get more points for beating good teams and fewer points for beating bad teams. (+32 for beating the best team, +1 for beating the worst). Teams lose points for losses. They lose more points for losing to bad teams and fewer points for losing to good teams. (-32 for losing to the worst team, -1 for losing to the best). The points total was reset with the first game of the season.
