1. Patriots (6-0; last week No. 1): The Patriots may wish they’d gotten on Thursday night the Joe Philbin Dolphins, not the Dan Campbell Dolphins.
2. Bengals (6-0; No. 2): Beating Pittsburgh in the regular season could be the key to avoiding a loss to them in January.
3. Packers (6-0; No. 3): Sunday’s trip to Denver could result in Aaron Rodgers seeing the best defense he’s ever faced.
4. Panthers (6-0; No. 4): If they can win when Cam Newton throws three interceptions, they won’t lose many times.
5. Broncos (6-0; No. 5): Of the four other 6-0 teams, Denver will play three of them.
6. Jets (4-2; No. 6): The Jets should emerge from their loss to the Patriots confident that they can beat anyone.

8. Cardinals (5-2; No. 9): The Cards continue to pile up wins over bad teams.
9. Vikings (4-2; No. 10): How did Stefon Diggs last until round five?
10. Steelers (4-3; No. 7): The Landry Jones era is over. There was one?
11. Rams (3-3; No. 11): It’s probably time for teams playing the Rams to start game-planning to stop Todd Gurley.
12. Dolphins (3-3; No. 15): Those back-to-back wins won’t mean anything if the Dolphins get thumped on Thursday night in Foxborough.
13. Giants (4-3; No. 14): Consistent Inconsistency is the T-shirt slogan for the 2015 Giants.
14. Raiders (3-3; No. 18): The best team in the Bay Area is suddenly the one that doesn’t have a swanky new stadium.
15. Seahawks (3-4; No. 16): Michael Bennett hates Dallas. He now gets a chance to visit.
16. Eagles (3-4; No. 12): It’s not crazy to think that this team would instantly get better by trading for Colin Kaepernick.
17. Saints (3-4; No. 23): The division title could be difficult to win, but a wild-card berth is definitely in play.
18. Cowboys (2-4; No. 13): “My dog didn’t just bite you. He’s simply trying to show you how to properly eat your food.”
19. Washington (3-4; No. 22): If that’s how excited Kirk Cousins gets after beating the Bucs, he may have a Scanners moment if they ever beat a good team.
20. Bills (3-4; No. 17): Well, at least they’re not moving to Toronto.

25. Jaguars (2-5; No. 32): It was obvious on Sunday that the Jaguars aren’t accustomed to leading in the second half.
26. Buccaneers (2-4; No. 25): Is it worse to blow a 24-point lead or lose by 24 points?
27. Chiefs (2-5; No. 30): Beating an NFL team led by Landry Jones is sort of like beating Missouri.
