Rk | Teams | Chg | Rcrd | |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 |
Broncos
| The defense faces a stiff challenge this week against the Falcons' high-scoring offense. Can they slow Matt Ryan? | 1 | 8-9-0 |
2 |
Vikings
| That defense is legit and Sam Bradford is playing good football. They have a Super Bowl look to them right now. | 1 | 7-10-0 |
3 |
Packers
| They come off their bye with a home game against the Giants. They seemed to get the offense going against the Lions before the break. Will that carry over? | 1 | 9-8-0 |
4 |
Patriots
| Now that Tom Brady is back, they should move back to the top of this list at some point this season. Going 3-1 without him was huge. | 3 | 4-13-0 |
5 |
Eagles
| The big question moving forward is whether rookie quarterback Carson Wentz can keep it up. He looks like he can. | -- | 11-6-0 |
6 |
Steelers
| With all those playmakers on offense, Ben Roethlisberger is going to roll up a ton of yards and touchdown passes. They will be tough to stop. | -- | 10-7-0 |
7 |
Seahawks
| They looked like a real Super Bowl contender against the Jets. That's the Seahawks we expected to see this season. | -- | 9-8-0 |
8 |
Cowboys
| Dak Prescott continues to play well and take care of the football. Does he keep the job when Tony Romo comes back? | 1 | 12-5-0 |
9 |
Texans
| They have a two-game lead in the division after a month, which makes them the team to beat. But not having J.J. Watt will hurt. | 2 | 10-7-0 |
10 |
Raiders
| They have three road victories in four weeks, which means something. The defense is improving each week. | 3 | 8-9-0 |
11 |
Falcons
| With their offense, they can score on anybody. We think. Let's see what happens this week at Denver. | 6 | 7-10-0 |
12 |
Ravens
| They could easily be 4-0, but their late loss to the Raiders will sting. But how good are they? | 4 | 13-4-0 |
13 |
Bengals
| They have a tough game this week at Dallas, but they are getting healthy. They could have Tyler Eifert back this week. | 2 | 9-8-0 |
14 |
Rams
| At 3-1, the defense is carrying this team. But at some point, you have to score more points. | 4 | 10-7-0 |
15 |
Giants
| The injuries in the secondary showed up against the Vikings. Now they get Aaron Rodgers. Better hope guys get back. | 1 | 6-11-0 |
16 |
Panthers
| They have major problems in a lot of areas. And now Cam Newton's concussion could be an issue. | 6 | 2-15-0 |
17 |
Chiefs
| That was a horror show in Pittsburgh. Was that really the same defense that picked off Ryan Fitzpatrick six times a week ago? | 5 | 11-6-0 |
18 |
Commanders
| At 2-2, they've evened their record after the 0-2 start. Now they face the Ravens in Baltimore. | 4 | 4-13-0 |
19 |
Bills
| They are now 2-2 and Rex Ryan has turned this thing around. They have a tough trip to Los Angeles to face the Rams this week. | 5 | 11-6-0 |
20 |
Jets
| They can't win with Ryan Fitzpatrick at quarterback. It's time to make a change. | 1 | 7-10-0 |
21 |
Chargers
| They've blown two 13-point fourth-quarter leads in two games. That's tough to take. | -- | 5-12-0 |
22 |
Cardinals
| Who ever imagined they'd be down this far after the first month? Carson Palmer hasn't been the same quarterback. | 8 | 4-13-0 |
23 |
Dolphins
| The early schedule was brutal, but they have so many issues right now. It's going to take time to fix this roster. | -- | 11-6-0 |
24 |
Saints
| Was that a season-saving victory at San Diego? It had that feel to it, but they have a long way to go. | 5 | 9-8-0 |
25 |
Bears
| Should Brian Hoyer stay in as the starter if Jay Cutler is healthy? That's absurd. | 5 | 7-10-0 |
26 |
Jaguars
| They finally got their first victory, which could get them going. They head to the bye and then play at Chicago. | 5 | 9-8-0 |
27 |
Colts
| This is a team that some picked to win the AFC South. At 1-3, they sure don't look like they will now. | 7 | 9-8-0 |
28 |
Buccaneers
| They are throwing it way too much, which is a problem. But the defense isn't good enough, which forces it. | 3 | 9-8-0 |
29 |
49ers
| Is it time to make a quarterback change? Or does that short week put that off for another week? | 3 | 12-5-0 |
30 |
Lions
| They just haven't played well, and it might cost Jim Caldwell his job. The offense didn't look good against the Bears. | 3 | 12-5-0 |
31 |
Titans
| At 1-3, they need to get it going -- or else. Coach Mike Mularkey is already on the hot seat. | 3 | 6-11-0 |
32 |
Browns
| At least they battle each week. That's a tribute to coach Hue Jackson. | -- | 11-6-0 |
