Bengals 20
Giants 21 Odell Beckham may have danced his way into the highlights, and Olivier Vernon and Jason Pierre-Paul may have come away with the Gruden’s Grinder award (eye roll), but Landon Collins announced his presence as the next big thing at safety. With four interceptions in his last three games, he’s doing Sean Taylor’s #21 proud. (AP Photo/Seth Wenig)
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs (14) carries the ball between Washington Redskins cornerback Kendall Fuller (38) and defensive back Tanard Jackson (36) during the first half of an NFL football game in Landover, Md., Sunday, Nov. 13, 2016. (AP Photo/Patrick Semansky)
Vikings 20
Redskins 26 Yes, Redskins homecoming had more to do with Stefon Diggs’s historic return than Bobby Beathard’s…but there’s just something about those throwback uniforms that makes Kirk Cousins a 100+ rated passer and a viral sensation. (AP Photo/Patrick Semansky)
Atlanta Falcons' Matt Ryan looks to pass during the first half of an NFL football game against the Philadelphia Eagles, Sunday, Nov. 13, 2016, in Philadelphia. (AP Photo/Matt Slocum)
Falcons 15
Eagles 24 Matt Ryan’s homecoming went decidedly worse. Matty Ice’s game icing interception (see what I did there?) reminded us yet again that Atlanta’s porous defense and late-game gaffes will constantly prevent the Falcons from flying as high as their early season success suggests.

NASHVILLE, TN - NOVEMBER 13:  Marcus Mariota #8 of the Tennessee Titans throws a pass during the game against the Green Bay Packers at Nissan Stadium on November 13, 2016 in Nashville, Tennessee.  (Photo by Andy Lyons/Getty Images)
Packers 25
Titans 47 Talk about low energy: Green Bay entered the week giving up just 75.8 rushing yards per game. DeMarco Murray equaled that on his first carry. Marcus Mariota had his third career 4 TD game and sixth straight game with multiple TD passes — both putting him in the same breath as Warren Moon. If Mike McCarthy was in trouble before, he’s in a helluva pickle now. (Photo by Andy Lyons/Getty Images)
CHARLOTTE, NC - NOVEMBER 13:   Star Lotulelei #98 of the Carolina Panthers shoves  Laurent Duvernay-Tardif #76 of the Kansas City Chiefs after a play in the 4th quarter during their game at Bank of America Stadium on November 13, 2016 in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Chiefs 20
Panthers 17 My favorite stat of this game: Carolina had a 20 play, 51 yard drive that ended in a punt. The Panthers basically just punted all hope of making a playoffs. (Photo by Streeter Lecka/Getty Images)

Rams 9
Jets 6
LA is the first team in 14 years to win two games in which they didn’t score a touchdown — just the kind of sexy football worthy of Los Angeles (eye roll). It’s time to make a change and everyone — except the coach — knows it. This just adds to the Jets’ embarrassment…if these guys aren’t even showing up for their own birthday parties, why would we expect them to show up for a home game? (AP Photo/Bill Kostroun)
JACKSONVILLE, FL - NOVEMBER 13:   Blake Bortles #5 of the Jacksonville Jaguars attempts a pass as he's pursued by Jadeveon Clowney #90 of the Houston Texans during the game at EverBank Field on November 13, 2016 in Jacksonville, Florida.  (Photo by Sam Greenwood/Getty Images)
Texans 24
Jaguars 21 Remember when we thought Blake Bortles was going to be the next Ben Roethlisberger? After his ninth career Pick 6, he’s starting to look a lot more like the next Matt Schaub. Speaking of Schaub…his old team in Houston now enjoys an NFL-best eight-game win streak in-division. Yes, the AFC South is that bad. (Photo by Sam Greenwood/Getty Images)
San Diego Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers reacts after Miami Dolphins middle linebacker Kiko Alonso returned a interception for the game winning touchdown during the second half of an NFL football game in San Diego, Sunday, Nov. 13, 2016. (AP Photo/Gregory Bull)
Dolphins 31
Chargers 24 Boy, Melvin Gordon needs that group text more than ever… And Philip Rivers might want to join one. His four killer picks came on the same day he threw 3 TDs to surpass 300 career TD passes and Ryan Tannehill proved his coach’s theory about game managers. (AP Photo/Gregory Bull)
PITTSBURGH, PA - NOVEMBER 13:  Ezekiel Elliott #21 of the Dallas Cowboys rushes towards the end zone past William Gay #22 of the Pittsburgh Steelers for an 83 yard touchdown reception in the first quarter during the game at Heinz Field on November 13, 2016 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. (Photo by Joe Sargent/Getty Images)
Cowboys 35
Steelers 30 Seven lead changes. Six failed two-point attempts. A feel good story plays out in the third quarter. Ezekiel Elliott becomes just the third player to rush for 1,000 yards in his first nine games, solidifying his position as Offensive Rookie of the Year and maybe even MVP. Game of the Week, indeed.

49ers 20
Cardinals 23 Larry Fitzgerald notched his 42nd career 100-yard receiving game (which ties him for 17th all-time with his mentor Cris Carter) to reach 14,000 career receiving yards (only the 12th player to do so). This slam dunk Hall-of-Famer has to wonder “what if” he ever played with a really good QB in his prime… (AP Photo/Rick Scuteri)
FOXBORO, MA - NOVEMBER 13:  Doug Baldwin #89 of the Seattle Seahawks drops a two point conversion attempt as he is defended by Patrick Chung #23 of the New England Patriots during the fourth quarter of a game at Gillette Stadium on November 13, 2016 in Foxboro, Massachusetts.

Seahawks 31
Patriots 24 In this rematch of Super Bowl 49, Seattle got a small measure of revenge by going into New England and holding Tom Brady without a touchdown pass for the first time in forever. These two teams seem destined for a true rematch in February. (Photo by Adam Glanzman/Getty Images)
BALTIMORE, MD - NOVEMBER 10: Running back Duke Johnson #29 of the Cleveland Browns is tackled by multiple Baltimore Ravens defenders at M&T Bank Stadium on November 10, 2016 in Baltimore, Maryland. (Photo by Patrick Smith/Getty Images)
Browns 7
Ravens 28 Two key stats for Cleveland: 1. The Browns have been outscored 157-51 after halftime this season. 2. Joe Flacco has faced 10 different starting QBs in 16 career starts vs. Cleveland. I don’t need analytics to figure out that drafting Carson Wentz this year could have fixed both. (Photo by Patrick Smith/Getty Images)
