| 5. | 5. | San Francisco 49ers | 6-2 | Home game against the Rams shouldn't provide much of an obstacle coming off the bye. |

| 10. | 2. | New York Giants | 6-3 | Streak of scoring in the fourth quarter ended at 26 games. |

| 12. | 14. | Seattle Seahawks | 5-4 | A top 10 team at home, a bottom 10 team on the road. |

| 17. | 23. | New Orleans Saints | 3-5 | Still breathing, barely. |
| 18. | 28. | San Diego Chargers | 4-4 | Nothing like a visit from Country Club Crennel's Chiefs to make a team feel better about themselves. Even a team coached by Norv. |
| 19. | 16. | Philadelphia Eagles | 3-5 | Couldn't overcome early 7 point swing when red zone interception was returned all the way for a TD. |
| 20. | 17. | Dallas Cowboys | 3-5 | Couldn't win even with Romo having his second turnover free game of the season. |

| 24. | 24. | New York Jets | 3-5 | Ryan announced as most over rated coach as chosen by players a couple of weeks after Tebow and Sanchez revealed as two most over rated players in the same poll. |
| 25. | 21. | Washington Redskins | 3-6 | Shanahan dropped to 14-27 and appeared to already give up on the season during a disheartening post game press conference. Could his job be in jeopardy? |
| 26. | 22. | Oakland Raiders | 3-5 | Could be forced to turn to Reece at RB after injuries to McFadden and Goodson. |
| 27. | 25. | Tennessee Titans | 3-6 | After Sunday's debacle owner Adams said his team was grossly outclassed and vowed to look at all alternatives to improve. Doesn't sound good for Munchack. |
| 28. | 27. | Buffalo Bills | 3-5 | Only got Jackson and Spiller 22 touches combined despite being in a close game in Houston. |
| 29. | 29. | St. Louis Rams | 3-5 | Expected post-bye return of Amendola can't hurt. |
| 30. | 26. | Cleveland Browns | 2-7 | Paid the price of settling for 5 FGs after outplaying the Ravens for 55 minutes. |
| 31. | 31. | Jacksonville Jaguars | 1-7 | Prime time games this week feature them on Thursday and the Chiefs on Monday. Oh the humanity.... |
| 32. | 32. | Kansas City Chiefs | 1-7 | Being an insufferable prick won't get Pioli fired. Being a loser on the other hand.... |
