43.40. Previous: 17th. Detroit Lions. 15. team. 50. Quietly, Anquan Boldin was one of the best free agent signings in this past off-season. Even at 36, Boldin has plenty of fight left in him. He might not gash anyone for a 50 yard play anymore, but he’s a fierce competitor and reliable target.

55. The Steelers came up short against the Patriots, but Landry Jones performed a little better than expect. He’s not good, but the game didn’t degrade into the flaming tire fire that was expected. Now, they get a bye week before taking on their biggest rival, the Baltimore Ravens.. 56.90. Previous: 9th. Pittsburgh Steelers. 14. team

49. The Packers dismantled the Bears, but that shouldn’t alleviate concerns about the offense. They still couldn’t move the ball during the first half of the game. 20 points in the second half cemented the deal. Hopefully, Knile Davis is up to speed for the Falcons’ game.. 57.29. Previous: 16th. Green Bay Packers. 13. team

13. This offense is missing Keenan Allen, Danny Woodhead, and Brandon Oliver, but they still move the ball downfield with the best teams in the NFL. If you take away some blown 4th quarter leads, the Chargers would be considered on of the top teams in the league.. 62.40. Previous: 12th. San Diego Chargers. 12. team

71.51. Previous: 10th. Atlanta Falcons. 11. team. 44. The Falcons dropped an overtime game to the Chargers this week for their second straight loss. Now 4-3, are we seeing the same collapse from last season? No, but the defense needs to play better. Dan Quinn went for it on 4 and 1 in overtime because he didn’t trust them to stop the Chargers for 1 drive.

74.73. Previous: 11th. Kansas City Chiefs. 10. team. 124. The Chiefs took an early, first half lead against the Saints and coasted through the second half for a win. I guess you take your foot off the gas when you have the games most boring starting quarterback. Just holding onto the lead won’t be enough in January.

28. The Raiders get their first convincing win of the season with a 33-16 win over the terrible Jaguars. Interestingly, that makes Oakland 4-0 on the road this season as they stay in Florida to take on the Bucs before starting a four game home stand.. 76.27. Previous: 13th. Oakland Raiders. 9. team
