24. Dallas Cowboys, 1-3 (18)

Honestly, this team should be lower than this, but I just can’t punish Dak Prescott any more than he already is by his own defense. Prescott is on pace to throw for 793,000 yards this season and own a 4-12 record. I made up one of those numbers. 4-12 is not it.

23. Cincinnati Bengals, 1-2-1 (29)

Joe Burrow got his first win of his career, and I’m guessing there will be many more in the future. Maybe not “many” this season, but they are building. Stop me if you heard this before about the Bengals. But this time it might be real. Burrow looks legitimate — if he survives his line.

22. Philadelphia Eagles, 1-2-1 (27)

Same record as the Bengals, and tied them, so how are the Eagles ahead of them? They beat the 49ers, who still have some pieces even if their quarterback situation is, well, wretched right now. The Eagles are not a good team at this time, but that defensive line can cause problems.

21. Denver Broncos, 1-3 (25)

How are the Broncos ahead of the Eagles and Bengals, you might ask? Because that’s where I put them, I would answer. None of these teams are very strong right now, but the Broncos won with a third-string quarterback. That earns level-of-difficulty points.
