9. Buffalo Bills – 3-2 – The Bills lost their first two games of the season not how they wanted to start the season. Since then the Bills have defeated the Arizona Cardinals, Patriots and LA Rams. Rex Ryan has found a way to fix the problems they started the season with. The defense is improving every game and posted a shut out against the Patriots. Up next for the Bills is the San Francisco 49ers where the Bills can grab their fourth win of the season.

10. Green Bay Packers – 3-1- Monday night the Packers struggled on offense but their defense stepped up.Still they were able to pull out a 23-16 victory over the New York Giants. Eddie Lacey is questionable for Sunday. If Lacey doesn’t play the Packers will struggle even more on offense. The Packers have a hard game coming up against the Dallas Cowboys and will need all their starters playing to defeat them.

11. Arizona Cardinals – 2-3- The Cardinals have gotten off to a slow start but they are capable of turning their season around. Carson Palmer was cleared to practice this week after missing last week due to a concussion. Last week without Palmer the Cardinals pulled out a 33-21 victory over the 49ers. This week the Cardinals play on Monday Night against the New Jets.

12. Oakland Raiders – 4-1- The Raiders have been lucky so far pulling out last second wins like last weeks victory over the Chargers. The Raiders give up the most yards on defense it is only a matter of time before that starts to hurt them. This week they will get tested against the Kansas City Chiefs.
