7. Houston Texans (5-2)

A walk-off section extremity was needed for nan Packers to return down nan Texans, handing them their 2nd nonaccomplishment of nan season. The AFC South, though, is still successful nan Texans’ hands aft they went into a reliable Lambeau Field environment, without 1 of their cardinal violative weapons successful Nico Collins, and fought until nan end. It is worthy noting that C.J. Stroud was held nether 100 yards passing contempt putting up 22 points.

12. Chicago Bears (4-2)

The Bears had their bye week up of a large showdown against Jayden Daniels and nan Washington Commanders. But if Daniels can’t play owed his injury, it opens nan doorway for Chicago, which has benefited from its schedule already. We mightiness not cognize what this squad is made of until it plays nan 3 different NFC North teams successful consecutive weeks adjacent month.

13. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4-3)

Early on, things looked promising for nan Buccaneers during their Monday nighttime crippled against nan Baltimore Ravens. But nan crippled quickly took a melodramatic turn. Star wide receiver Mike Evans dropped a would-be touchdown walk earlier exiting nan crippled pinch a hamstring injury.

Baker Mayfield seemed to beryllium unsettled nan remainder of nan nighttime without his apical receiver. Meanwhile, Derek Henry sprinted 81 yards to group up a Ravens score, and Baltimore did not look back.

The victor of Sunday’s Buccaneers-Falcons crippled will return power of nan NFC South division.

14. Seattle Seahawks (4-3)

This was a much-needed rebound by Seattle, which had mislaid 3 straight. Atlanta had been connected nan rise, and nan Seahawks were nan overmuch amended squad from commencement to finish. They'll person different morganatic trial erstwhile nan Bills sojourn this weekend.

15. Atlanta Falcons (4-3)

After winning 3 consecutive games, Falcons coach Raheem Morris said nan squad "came retired level … for immoderate reason" successful its crippled against nan Seahawks.

17. Cincinnati Bengals (3-4)

Don’t fto nan Bengals get hot. They won 2 successful a statement to get to 3-4 aft a dismal 1-4 start. Joe Burrow is starting to click pinch Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, and nan discourtesy is starting to get going again. The Bengals' defense held nan Browns successful check, allowing conscionable 14 points successful nan win. The Bengals tin get backmost to .500 pinch a triumph complete nan Eagles adjacent week.

18. Denver Broncos (4-3)

Denver is starting to look for illustration a franchise taking sizable steps retired of nan basement of nan convention nether Sean Payton. It wasn't going to travel each astatine once, but wins for illustration nan 1 they notched against New Orleans, anchored by a beardown defense, are suggestive of a squad that could beryllium superior again soon.

19. Indianapolis Colts (4-3)

The Colts were capable to grip nan lowly Dolphins, though nan return of Anthony Richardson astatine backmost didn’t nutrient nan violative output Joe Flacco has been providing since taking complete for nan injured second-year signal-caller. Richardson did lead nan Colts successful rushing, while Tyler Goodson scored nan lone touchdown connected discourtesy for Indy pinch 51 yards connected 14 carries. But Richardson’s struggles successful nan walk crippled (10-for-24, 129 yards) stay an rumor for caput coach Shane Steichen, who needs to spot much improvement considering nan Colts are successful nan playoff hunt.

20. Arizona Cardinals (3-4)

This is still a beautiful inconsistent team, but we won't punish it for taking attraction of business. It was a scrappy two-point triumph successful a low-scoring game, but nan schedule sewage a spot tougher aft their adjacent opponent, nan Dolphins, announced Tua Tagovailoa is apt to play Sunday.

21. Los Angeles Chargers (3-3)

The Chargers can't shingle nan choker label, not moreover pinch Jim Harbaugh. Their latest late-game disaster against nan Cardinals went a agelong measurement successful bolstering that reputation.

23. New Orleans Saints (2-5)

Running backmost Alvin Kamara admitted fans were "fed up" aft galore booed earlier leaving nan Superdome good earlier nan blowout nonaccomplishment to nan Denver Broncos came to an end. Veteran backmost Derek Carr could return to nan starting lineup arsenic early arsenic this Sunday for a crippled against nan Los Angeles Chargers. Whenever Carr is afloat recovered from his oblique injury, he should springiness New Orleans a boost. But nan Saints still person a big of different issues to correct if this squad wants to move its play around.

24. New York Jets (2-5)

Aaron Rodgers is getting a batch of blasted for New York’s bad start, but coaching, receiver play and a defense not being arsenic beardown arsenic it should person contributed.

25. Miami Dolphins (2-4)

Tua Tagovailoa is returning, but it feels for illustration nan play is already a mislaid 1 successful Miami. The yo-yo of Tua’s readiness cannot beryllium a semipermanent strategy of occurrence for nan Dolphins.

26. New York Giants (2-5)

The 2 decisions that defined nan offseason — not replacing QB Daniel Jones and letting RB Saquon Barkley spell — are looking unsmooth correct now.

27. Jacksonville Jaguars (2-5)

They dominated a struggling Patriots squad, particularly connected nan ground, wherever Tank Bigsby rushed for complete 100 yards pinch 2 touchdowns successful his commencement for nan injured Travis Etienne Jr. Trevor Lawrence besides looked much efficient, going 15-for-20 done nan aerial for 193 yards pinch a touchdown to trusted rookie Brian Thomas Jr.

28. Las Vegas Raiders (2-5)

The Raiders now person a backmost contention aft signing Desmond Ridder. On apical of that, nan Devante Adams waste and acquisition mightiness not beryllium nan team's past large woody either. Rumors are swirling astir much Raiders stars being traded earlier nan deadline.

Mason Rudolph started for nan injured Will Levis, and though things started disconnected basking connected nan roadworthy successful Buffalo nan Bills ran distant pinch this one. Rudolph threw 40 times because of nan deficit, completing 25 of them for 215 yards pinch a touchdown and an interception. But this squad can’t look to find momentum arsenic it moved to 1-5, digging itself successful nan AFC playoff picture.

30. Cleveland Browns (1-6)

It’s stone bottommost successful Cleveland correct now. The Yankees eliminated nan Guardians successful nan ALCS, Deshaun Watson ruptured his Achilles and it feels for illustration nan occurrence waste has begun for nan Browns aft they traded Amari Cooper. Expect much players to get traded retired of Cleveland complete nan adjacent fewer weeks arsenic they look toward nan future.

31. New England Patriots (1-6)

It seems for illustration a title betwixt Jerod Mayo and Jacksonville’s Doug Pederson for nan adjacent coach to beryllium fired, and Mayo mightiness triumph (lose?) that.

When nan Panthers made nan move from Bryce Young to Andy Dalton, nan squad appeared to beryllium betting connected nan seasoned quarterback’s acquisition and hoped he could thief them astatine slightest beryllium competitory for astir games. But Carolina’s latest nonaccomplishment proved to beryllium thing but competitive. At 1 constituent during nan blowout nonaccomplishment to nan Washington Commanders, nan Panthers were down 37-0. 

Surprisingly, nan coaches did not propulsion Dalton astatine that point. The determination suggested nan unit is not willing successful going backmost to Young this season. Young did yet spot immoderate action, albeit limited. He vanished nan crippled pinch 2 walk attempts for -4 yards.
