Redskins 16
Panthers 44 Yes, was some BS, but if you’re not taking Carolina seriously, it’s long past time to start: The Panthers’ 14 straight regular-season wins is the 3rd-longest streak by an NFC team since the 1970 merger, and they’ve rushed for 100+ yards in 21 straight games.

Ravens 16 Bad news for Baltimore: Joe Flacco’s streak of 121 straight starts (the fifth-longest streak in NFL history) will end after , and Justin Forsett . Good news for Baltimore: They’re a virtual lock to and become the NFL’s next worst-to-first story. (AP Photo/Nick Wass)

Cowboys 24
Dolphins 14 If Romo’s return has Jerry Jones , I shudder to think what he’ll do if Dallas continues the trend of winning every game Romo start this season … (AP Photo/Wilfredo Lee)

Raiders 13
Lions 18 Oakland picked a bad time to lose three straight. After their trip to Tennessee, they have to face KC, Denver and Green Bay. Raider Nation might look back on this loss as the one that cost them a wild card berth. (AP Photo/Rick Osentoski)

Texans 24 Get a good look at . It’s the beginning of DeAndre Hopkins’ reign as a top five receiver and the end of Darrelle Revis’ days as an elite corner. (AP Photo/David J. Phillip)
Broncos 17
Bears 15 If you thought , try being Brock Osweiler: Dude gets his first career start on his 25th birthday, throws 2 TDs for a 127.1 QB rating and beats the guy that drafted him (John Fox). A couple more good days and these could be Brock’s Broncos for good. (Getty Images/David Banks)

Chiefs 33
Chargers 3 Denver made their QB change at the right time. KC has won four straight by a total margin of 91 points to get to 5-5 and within two games of the division lead. Things just got interesting in the AFC West. Unless, of course, you’re San Diego. and I’m not sure L.A. will want this mess. (AP Photo/Lenny Ignelzi)

Vikings 13 Aaron Rodgers led first-place Green Bay to their 10th win in their last 12 meetings with Minnesota and has the league’s 5th best QB rating (101.8). If this is what being looks like, we should all be so lucky. (AP Photo/Ann Heisenfelt)

Niners 13
Seahawks 29 Just to put this in perspective: Marshawn Lynch’s career-high is 153 rushing yards. Thomas Rawls (209 yards on Sunday) already has two games in which he’s eclipsed that total.

Bengals 31
Cardinals 34 Carson Palmer never hid , and in leading Arizona to their league-leading seventh 30-point game, he definitely played like a man with something to prove to his former team. I’m surprised he didn’t kick the celebration up a notch considering he’s got a already set up in his name. Meanwhile, Cincy isn’t doing their reputation any favors by losing back-to-back prime-time games; in fact, the Bengals are now 1-13 under Marvin Lewis in road games that start at 7 ET or later. Just don’t mention it to Andy Dalton. (AP Photo/Ross D. Franklin)
