Week 8 of the 2025 NFL season is here after a "Monday Night Football" doubleheader that included a matchup between the top teams in last week's Power Rankings (the Buccaneers and Lions). Detroit won following an exciting Sunday slate, which even featured a 33-point fourth quarter by the Broncos against the Giants.
How do all of these teams fit in our updated Power Rankings? We restacked the NFL heading into Week 8, which includes byes for six teams (Cardinals, Jaguars, Lions, Raiders, Rams and Seahawks).
