NFL Power Rankings for Week 9: Lions just won’t stop scoring
NY Post
The NFL’s most explosive offense resides in Detroit.
Jared Goff threw for only 85 yards but still connected on three touchdowns Sunday in the Lions’ fifth straight win.
All they do is score, score, score.
Off to their best seven-game start since 1956, the Lions’ 172 points over their last four games are the most in a four-game span by any NFL team since the 2019 Ravens. They are leading the NFL with 33.4 points per game – about a field goal more per game than any other team.
If the Lions score 34 next time out, they will reach 268 points over their first nine games – tying their full-season scoring output from their infamous 0-16 season in 2008.
The Lions are the class of the NFC, but they still don’t have the No. 1 spot in The Post’s NFL power rankings for Week 9:
