Record: 2-7
Week 10 result: Lost to the Colts, 25-20
Week 11 opponent: at Denver Broncos

31. Houston Texans
Record: 1-7-1
Week 10 result: Lost to the Giants, 24-16
Week 11 opponent: vs. Washington Commanders
One stat to know: Dating back to November 2020, the Houston Texans have lost nine straight games against NFC opponents. They'll have their best shot at breaking that streak this week against the Commanders.
30. Jacksonville Jaguars
Record: 3-7
Week 10 result: Lost to the Chiefs, 27-17
Week 11 opponent: Bye
One stat to know: After last week's loss to the Chiefs, the Jaguars have now dropped six straight games against Kansas City dating back to 2010, with five of those six losses coming by double digits.
29. Carolina Panthers
Record: 3-7
Week 10 result: Beat the Falcons, 25-15
Week 11 opponent: at Baltimore Ravens
One stat to know: Through the first six games of the season, the Panthers averaged 4.37 yards per rushing attempt. Since trading away superstar running back Christian McCaffrey to the San Francisco 49ers after Week 6, that number has jumped to 4.98 yards per rushing attempt.
28. Cleveland Browns

Record: 3-6
Week 10 result: Lost to the Dolphins, 39-17
Week 11 opponent: at Buffalo Bills
One stat to know: The past three seasons of Cleveland Browns football have been defined by their rushing attack. In games where the Browns rushed for more than 150 yards, they're 16-6. In games where they missed that mark, they are 6-14.
27. Pittsburgh Steelers
Record: 3-6
Week 10 result: Beat the Saints, 20-10
Week 11 opponent: vs. Cincinnati Bengals
One stat to know: In five starts under center, rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett has yet to lead the Steelers offense to more than 20 points in a game. With defensive superstars T.J. Watt and Minkah Fitzpatrick returning, that might be enough, but as things stand, the young QB is asking a lot from his defense.
26. Indianapolis Colts
Record: 4-5-1
Week 10 result: Beat the Raiders, 25-20
Week 11 opponent: vs. Philadelphia Eagles
One stat to know: Sam Ehlinger's brief time as a starting quarterback did not work out well for the Colts. In his two starts, Ehlinger averaged just 152 passing yards per game, while Matt Ryan is averaging 279 per start. Barring injury, don't expect Ehlinger under center again any time soon in Indianapolis.
25. Chicago Bears

Record: 3-7
Week 10 result: Lost to the Lions, 31-30
Week 11 opponent: at Atlanta Falcons
One stat to know: Justin Fields has quickly established himself as one of the best dual-threat quarterbacks in the NFL. Before Fields' breakout, quarterbacks had cleared 140 rushing yards in a game just five times in NFL history. Fields has now done it two straight weeks.
24. Atlanta Falcons
Record: 4-6
Week 10 result: Lost to the Panthers, 25-15
Week 11 opponent: vs. Chicago Bears
One stat to know: The power running game is back in the NFL, and the Atlanta Falcons are helping lead the revolution. Since the start of 2012, just one team has averaged fewer pass attempts per game than the 2022 Falcons.
23. Los Angeles Rams
Record: 3-6
Week 10 result: Lost to the Cardinals, 27-17
Week 11 opponent: at New Orleans Saints
One stat to know: The offense that brought the Rams a Super Bowl win last year has all but disappeared. In 2021, Matthew Stafford was throwing for 287.4 yards per game, with 6.8% of his throws going for touchdowns. This year, Stafford has dropped to 241 yards per game, and just 2.8% of his throws find the end zone. With Cooper Kupp heading to the IR, those numbers don't feel likely to improve soon.
22. Denver Broncos

Record: 3-6
Week 10 result: Lost to the Titans, 17-10
Week 11 opponent: vs. Las Vegas Raiders
One stat to know: The Denver Broncos have yet to see the Russell Wilson they thought they were paying for when they handed him a five-year, $242 million contract. Wilson is completing just 57.4% of his passes this year, a shocking 7% below his career average of 64.6%.
21. New Orleans Saints
Record: 3-7
Week 10 result: Lost to the Steelers, 20-10
Week 11 opponent: vs. Los Angeles Rams
One stat to know: The Saints' use of Taysom Hill remains one of the most confounding successes in the NFL. Since 2020, New Orleans is 9-3 in games where Hill scores a rushing touchdown, and 4-2 in games where he throws for a score.
20. Detroit Lions
Record: 3-6
Week 10 result: Beat the Bears, 31-30
Week 11 opponent: at New York Giants
One stat to know: Amon-Ra St. Brown is the type of game-changing receiver teams dream of landing. Through just 25 career games with the Lions, he's already 25th all-time among receiver receptions for the franchise. By the end of the year, he should be among the top 15 wide receivers Detroit has ever seen.
19. Arizona Cardinals
Record: 4-6
Week 10 result: Beat the Rams, 27-17
Week 11 opponent: vs. San Francisco 49ers
One stat to know: The Arizona Cardinals had sorely missed DeAndre Hopkins' offensive production while he served a suspension through the first six games of the season. Since his return, Hopkins is averaging 99 receiving yards per game, and has scored twice.
18. New England Patriots

Record: 5-4
Week 10 result: Bye
Week 11 opponent: vs. New York Jets
One stat to know: The New England Patriots haven't lost to the New York Jets since 2015, going 13-0 in that span. Over those 13 games, Bill Belichick's defense has held the Jets to a paltry 11.5 points per game.
17. Seattle Seahawks
Record: 6-4
Week 10 result: Lost to the Buccaneers, 21-16
Week 11 opponent: Bye
One stat to know: Geno Smith leads all quarterbacks in the NFL with a completion percentage of 72.8%. If you had that prediction locked in going into the season, buy yourself a lottery ticket.
16. Green Bay Packers

Record: 4-6
Week 10 result: Beat the Cowboys, 31-28
Week 11 opponent: vs. Tennessee Titans
One stat to know: One of the most surprising aspects of the Packers' disappointing start has been Aaron Rodgers' turnovers. Rodgers already has thrown seven interceptions on the season, more than he's thrown in any single year since 2016. With seven games still to play, there's a chance he breaks his career high of 11 if he can't start taking care of the ball again.
15. Washington Commanders
Record: 5-5
Week 10 result: Beat the Eagles, 32-21
Week 11 opponent: at Houston Texans
One stat to know: Carson Wentz and Taylor Heinicke have split the starting duties for the Washington Commanders to start this season, and their numbers are shockingly similar. Completion percentage: Wentz 62.1%, Heinicke 62.0%. Touchdown percentage: Wentz 4.3%, Heinicke 4.1%. QB rating: Wentz 84.1, Heinicke 82.7.
But despite the similarities, the players differ where it matters most — the Commanders are 2-4 in Wentz's starts and 3-1 with Heinicke under center. Expect Heinicke to hold on to the job for as long as the Commanders stay winning.
14. Los Angeles Chargers
Record: 5-4
Week 10 result: Lost to the 49ers, 22-16
Week 11 opponent: vs. Kansas City Chiefs
One stat to know: With injuries to the top of their receiving depth chart, the Los Angeles Chargers have had to spread the ball around through the first half of the season, with a whopping five players already clearing 300 receiving yards on the year. They'll need all the help they can get to keep pace with the Chiefs this week.
13. San Francisco 49ers

Record: 5-4
Week 10 result: Beat the Chargers, 22-16
Week 11 opponent: at Arizona Cardinals
One stat to know: The 49ers are at their best when quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo isn't asked to do too much. San Francisco is a perfect 5-0 in games that Garoppolo does not throw a pick, and 0-3 when he does.
12. Cincinnati Bengals
Record: 5-4
Week 10 result: Bye
Week 11 opponent: at Pittsburgh Steelers
One stat to know: The Bengals' passing game is one of the most balanced in the NFL, with all three of the team's top receivers — Ja'Marr Chase (86.2 yards per game), Tee Higgins (62.7), and Tyler Boyd (59.7) contributing significantly to the offense. Stop one, and the other two will make you pay.
11. Tennessee Titans

Record: 6-3
Week 10 result: Beat the Broncos, 17-10
Week 11 opponent: at Green Bay Packers
One stat to know: Derrick Henry is still the King for a reason. Through 10 weeks of football, Henry is just one of three running backs in the NFL averaging more than 100 yards on the ground per game, and has found the end zone nine times. If the Titans are going to keep their hot streak going, he'll need to continue to carry the load.
10. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Record: 5-5
Week 10 result: Beat the Seahawks, 21-16
Week 11 opponent: Bye
One stat to know: The Buccaneers have not gotten the production they have expected out of Chris Godwin this year. After leading the team with 78.8 receiving yards per game last year, Godwin's average has dropped to 59.4 yards per game in 2022. He also only has one touchdown on the season thus far.
9. Dallas Cowboys
Record: 6-3
Week 10 result: Lost to the Packers, 31-28
Week 11 opponent: at Minnesota Vikings
One stat to know: Tony Pollard is making a strong case to take over as the top man in the Cowboys' backfield. Despite having six fewer carries than Ezekiel Elliott on the season, Pollard has outgained his teammate by 178 yards on the year, averaging 6.03 yards per carry to Elliott's 4.06.
8. Buffalo Bills
Record: 6-3
Week 10 result: Lost to the Vikings, 33-30
Week 11 opponent: vs. Cleveland Browns
One stat to know: Despite losing two straight games, the Buffalo Bills still have the highest point differential in the NFL. Their three losses have come by a combined eight points.
7. New York Jets
Record: 6-3
Week 10 result: Bye
Week 11 opponent: at New England Patriots
One stat to know: The Jets are looking the best they have since the start of the Zach Wilson era, but the New England Patriots remain a stiff challenge for the young quarterback. Since taking over under center, Wilson's Jets are 0-3 against Bill Belichick, losing those games by an average of more than 21 points.
6. New York Giants

Record: 7-2
Week 10 result: Beat the Texans, 24-16
Week 11 opponent: vs. Detroit Lions
One stat to know: Saquon Barkley appears to have found his explosive step again at just the right time. Through 10 weeks, Barkley has seven rushes of 20 yards or more, trailing only Nick Chubb.
5. Miami Dolphins
Record: 7-3
Week 10 result: Beat the Browns, 39-17
Week 11 opponent: Bye
One stat to know: The Miami Dolphins are undefeated this season in games that starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa started and finished. Wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle represent the first- and fourth-leading receiving numbers in the league. Don't be surprised if Tagovailoa is a leader in the MVP conversation through the second half of the season.
4. Baltimore Ravens
Record: 6-3
Week 10 result: Bye
Week 11 opponent: vs. Carolina Panthers
One stat to know: The quarterback revolution that Lamar Jackson inspired is starting to take shape. After leading the NFL in quarterback rushing attempts per game in each of his first four seasons, Jackson currently sits third behind Jalen Hurts and Justin Fields for the 2022 season.
3. Minnesota Vikings

Record: 8-1
Week 10 result: Beat the Bills, 33-30
Week 11 opponent: vs. Dallas Cowboys
One stat to know: Justin Jefferson leads the NFL with 117.8 receiving yards per game, and now has the catch of the year to his name as well. He's currently the betting favorite to win Offensive Player of the Year, and with good reason.
2. Philadelphia Eagles
Record: 8-1
Week 10 result: Lost to the Commanders, 32-21
Week 11 opponent: at Indianapolis Colts
One stat to know: Jalen Hurts has been the heartbeat of the Eagles' offense this year. While he's a threat on the ground, his improvement in the passing game has brought Philadelphia to a new level. Hurts is completing 67.9% of his passes — third-best in the NFC — and has thrown just three picks through the first half of the year.
1. Kansas City Chiefs

Record: 7-2
Week 10 result: Beat the Jaguars, 27-17
Week 11 opponent: at Los Angeles Chargers
One stat to know: Since Patrick Mahomes became the full-time starter for the Chiefs in 2018, there have been 28 games where a quarterback has thrown for 440 yards or more. Mahomes accounts for five of them.
