10. Pittsburgh Steelers (2-1, Last Week: 5)
The Steelers let the Bears win after major screw-ups by Chicago. Jordan Howard was the difference in the OT game. Big Ben and the offense never really got in rhythm, but Antonio Brown turned in another 100 yard performance. Next week the Steelers travel to Baltimore as they’ll go up against their division foes in a big game this week.

Case Keenum threw a party last Sunday at home in Minnesota. He threw for 369 yards and three touchdowns. Plus Dalvin Cook went off with a dominant 97 yards and a touchdown.
8. Tennessee Titans (2-1, Last Week: 12)
Mariota was efficient in week three, plus DeMarco Murray and Derrick Henry both ran the ball enough to give the Titans the win. The defense showed flashes of greatness but gave up 373 yards through the air. In week four, the Titans will travel to Houston to take on the Texans.
7. Green Bay Packers (2-1, Last Week: 10)
Green Bay nearly lost to the lowly Bengals, but Aaron Rodgers showed once again why he is so great. He threw for 313 yards and three touchdowns throughout the game, including a game-winning pass in overtime to set up a field goal. The Pack will now featured on Thursday Night against Chicago.
6. Dallas Cowboys (2-1, Last Week: 8)

Dak Prescott and Cowboys were set up for success in their week three match up. Their defense stopped the run, plus Ezekiel Elliott had a good game with his 80 yards and one touchdown. Now the Cowboys will have a test against the Rams.
5. Oakland Raiders (2-1, Last Week: 3)
The Raiders took their first loss of the season to Washington in a game that was pitiful if you’re apart of Oakland. Derek Carr only threw for just over 100 yards and Marshawn Lynch didn’t eclipse 20 yards rushing. It was an awful outing during their Sunday Night affair, but they’ll have another chance this Sunday against the Broncos in what will be a good divisional match-up.
4. Detroit Lions (2-1, Last Week: 6)
Golden Tate was less than a yard away from beating the former NFC Champion Falcons. Matt Stafford once again put together a great 4th quarter come back, as they fell just short. Although they couldn’t put together the running game, they’re defense, who picked Matt Ryan off three times, came in clutch in their efforts to come back.
3. Atlanta Falcons (3-0, Last Week: 4)
The Falcons offense is very much high-powered, but when you turn the ball over as much as you did, it seems quite impossible to win, although they did. Matt Ryan and Devonta Freeman put in the plays needed to pull away with a W in week three. Now the Falcons will come home and host the Bills fresh off a win.
2. New England Patriots (2-1, Last Week: 3)
The Patriots nearly slipped up against Deshaun Watson and the Houston Texans. An amazing drive by Tom Brady to win the game was the difference in the end. The New England defense must improve allowing Watson to have a pretty nice day as they competed for a win in Foxborough.
1. Kansas City Chiefs (3-0, Last Week: 1)

Kareem Hunt is the truth as the Chiefs once again prevail, this time against the L.A. Chargers. The running game was outstanding alongside the dominating defense. The Chiefs will continue to fight for their perfect season as they take on the Redskins on Monday Night Football.
