RANK TEAM

1 Philadelphia Eagles LeBron James' favorite NFL player is Eagles QB Carson Wentz: "I just love the way he plays the game." 2 was upset that he didn't get to try the biscuits made for Thanksgiving. He got 2 TD catches instead. 3 New England's visit to Heinz Field on Dec. 17 looms as a ginormous game. 4 Undrafted QB Case Keenum is 7-2 this season after going 9-15 with the Houston Texas and the St. Louis/Los Angeles Rams. 5 Los Angeles Rams The Rams' next two games will likely determine their NFC West fate. They host the Eagles then travel to Seattle. 6 Backup RB Alvin Kamara makes it even clearer why the Saints were not playing Adrian Peterson. 7 returned a fumble 34 yards for a TD and Kaelin Clay had a 60-yard punt return for a TD in a fourth-quarter rally against the Jets. 8 's 16 TD receptions are the most by a Seattle , passing . 9 Atlanta Falcons Through his first 90 games, has more catches (563) and more yards (8,649) than any player in NFL history. 10 The Titans got their first win in 10 tries at Indianapolis' Lucas Oil Stadium 11 That was some god-awful clock managemnt by Doug Marrone in the fourth quarter against the Cardinals. 12 The Lions' five losses are to the Falcons, Panthers, Saints, Steelers and Vikings. 13 The Ravens do not inspire confidence, but in the NFL, this is what a playoff team looks like. 14 Tyrod Taylor's steady play is exacty what the Bills needed in a win over Kansas City -- and last week when he was benched. 15 No way the Chiefs should turn to rookie QB Patrick Mahomes II until their playoff hopes are dead. 16 Washington Redskins In the 4th quarter, the 'Skins planned to punt on fourth-and-1, called timeout, decided to go for it, took a delay-of-game and punted anyway. 17 Just keep playing . Nothing else matters. 18 Los Angeles Chargers The Chargers (5-6) are within a game of division leading leading Kansas City in the sad sack AFC West. 19 Oakland Raiders The Raiders (5-6) are within a game of division leading leading Kansas City in the sad sack AFC West. 20 Brett Hundley was 17 of 26 for 245 yards & 3 TDs in a loss to Pittsburgh, his best start since taking over for . 21 Cincinnati Bengals Is Bengals coach Marvin Lewis at the end of his tenure? 22 The Cowboys have lost three straight games by at least 20 points for the first time since 2004. 23 Houston Texans Yeah, that's the Tom Savage we expected to see. 24 Wonder if coach Dirk Koetter heard Sun Devils AD Ray Anderson's press conference talk of ASU being a top-15 program. 25 Dolphins Do you think the other AFC East teams also view themselves as automatic wins for the Patriots? 26 The Jets have lost five of their last six games -- by a combined 28 points. 27 The Bears will miss the postseason for the 10th time in 11 years. 28 Denver Broncos The Broncos' seven-game losing streak is their longest in 50 years. 29 Indy is one loss away from having the first losing year in coach Chuck Pagano's six seasons. 30 The Giants' loss to the Redskins on Thanksgiving was one of the worst games in NFL history. 31 Is it time to take a look at ? 32 Coach Hue Jackson is 1-26 since leaving Cincinnati as offensive coordinator.
