13. New Orleans Saints
The New Orleans Saints are on a two-game winning streak and owes a lot of that success to the defense. This young group has quickly developed and is starting to play winning football. With Drew Brees in place, the Saints only need the defense to keep things close.
14. Tennessee Titans

I’m having a hard time figuring out the Tennessee Titans. On paper, they have enough talent to win the AFC South. However, they just haven’t been able to string together back-to-back strong performances. Tennessee strikes me as a middle of the pack team still trying to learn how to win.
15. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Despite their 2-1 record, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have underperformed. Their wins have come against the lowly Chicago Bears and New York Giants. Overall, the offense has struggled to meet expectations. They need to start opening things up in order to keep pace in the NFC playoff hunt.
16. Minnesota Vikings
Injuries are starting to take their toll on the Minnesota Vikings. They are really going to struggle to stay competitive with both Sam Bradford and Dalvin Cook out of the lineup. Minnesota’s defense can only do so much to keep things close.
