Now that Tony Romo has returned to the Cowboys and Aaron Rodgers has remembered how to win, let’s take a look at the latest NFL betting power rankings.
Johnny Manziel will be the starting quarterback for the rest of the season, beginning this Monday night against Baltimore.
Marcus Mariota is going through some real growing pains on a team without much talent. In their last seven games, they have only scored 14 or more points once.
Joe Flacco tore his ACL and is done for the season. The backup is Matt Schaub, who pick-sixed himself out of Houston and had two picks in ten attempts last year with Oakland.
The Chargers have now lost six in a row. If they lose again, they’ll be under .500 for just the second time during the Philip Rivers era.
The Niners have the second-worst time of possession average in the NFL this year (27:12). However, they only have nine turnovers (fourth best).
The Saints fired Rob Ryan during the bye week, as they rank #32 in points permitted (31.5) and yards permitted (424.3).
Don’t look now, but the Jags have won three of four, and they now have San Diego and Tennessee next.
The Lions may finally be waking up, posting consecutive wins in their last two weeks.
The Eagles have thrown 14 interceptions and 13 touchdowns. Who else has more picks than touchdowns in the air? Denver.
Ryan Tannehill has a 23.3 total QBR in his last four games. The Dolphins have lost three of those contests.
While Todd Gurley has been great on the ground, the team has not passed for 200 yards since Week 1. Some balance will help this team win more games.
Washington is 4-1 at home and 0-5 on the road. The next two weeks feature home NFC East games for the Skins.
In six of the last seven games, the Bears have either won or lost by three points or fewer. They’ve split those games.
Opponents are rushing 189 yards per game against the Greatness during this three-game slide.
Houston has won three straight, holding teams to an average of 9.7 points per game. In the first seven games, the Texans allowed 28.4 points per game.
With Tony Romo starting, the Cowboys are 3-0 this season. The other games? You see the record. Huge game with Carolina on Thanksgiving.
Ryan Fitzpatrick’s completion percentage has dipped below 50 during this two-game slide.
When the Bills throw the ball 30+ times in a game, they are 0-5. The running game is crucial for them.
The G-men are in first place in the NFC East, but if they had held all of their fourth-quarter leads, they would be 9-1.
Once 1-5, the Chiefs have forced 12 turnovers and committed none during their four-game winning streak.
The last time the Bucs won two straight was 2013. The last time they won at least five in a season was 2012.
The Falcons are in a free fall, dropping three in a row and four of five.
QB controversy? Matt Hasselbeck is 3-0 with a higher total QBR, completion percentage and TD to INT ratio than Andrew Luck (2-5).
Thomas Rawls rumbled for 209 yards in his fourth NFL start.
Things get tough for the Steelers now, as they finish on the road in four of the last six weeks.
When the Vikings win, Adrian Peterson averages 121 yards on the ground. When they lose, that drops to 52.
The Packers have found their pass rush again, sacking Teddy Bridgewater six times last week.
The Bengals had an ugly loss to Houston and a tough loss to Arizona. How will they respond?
The Brock Osweiler Era is underway in Denver.
The Cards are averaging 33.6 points per game this year. Keeping your starting quarterback healthy makes a world of difference.
The Panthers have passed test after test. The next one comes in Dallas. Do you think Greg Hardy will be ready to face his former team?
As Al Davis put it, “Just win, baby.” The Patriots keep doing it.
