1 Giants4-0-1/7The G-Men are playing with the confidence of a Super Bowl champ. Michael Strahan warned the NFL of New York's superior depth on FOX NFL Sunday last weekend, guaranteeing that Plaxico Burress replacement Domenik Hixon would score a TD.
The G-Men are playing with the confidence of a Super Bowl champ. Michael Strahan warned the NFL of New York's superior depth on FOX NFL Sunday last weekend, guaranteeing that Plaxico Burress replacement Domenik Hixon would score a TD. It only took one drive against Seattle -- now that's TV analysis! COOL STAT: The Giants offense averaged over 10 yards per play in the first half against the Seahawks in Week 5. THIS WEEK: at Browns (1-3)

2 Commanders4-1-2/19 Zorny may be corny with his old school "Hip Hip, Hooray!" cheer, but winning on the road against NFC East foes Dallas and Philly in back-to-back weeks never goes out of style. Clinton Portis is grinding teams into the dirt six feet under, providing a valuable anchor for Jason Campbell and the offense.

Clinton Portis is grinding teams into the dirt six feet under, providing a valuable anchor for Jason Campbell and the offense. Now the schedule eases up, with Washington's next three games against teams with a 1-11 combined record. COOL STAT: The Commanders outrushed the Eagles 117-31 in the second half last week. THIS WEEK: vs. Rams (0-4)

3 Titans5-013/12Give it up for old man Kerry Collins. Not many QBs could lead an 11-play touchdown drive late in the fourth quarter against this year's Ravens defense, and on the road. Jeff Fisher's crew is building something special, and already has a 2 1/2 game lead in the AFC South.

4 Panthers4-114/13Fear the Panthers. Forget last year's aberration, as the 2007 squad lacked the leaders on offense in body (injured Jake Delhomme) and spirit in defense (Julius Peppers' off year). The growl is definitely back on D, and Peppers has already surpassed his 2007 sack total.

The growl is definitely back on D, and Peppers has already surpassed his 2007 sack total. Can't wait for this week's roadie in Tampa. COOL STAT: Carolina has faced five of the league's top 13 rushers, but did allow Michael Turner, Adrian Peterson, Larry Johnson, Matt Forte or LaDainian Tomlinson to reach 100 yards. THIS WEEK: at Bucs (3-2)

5 Cowboys4-122/5Don't kid yourselves, Dallas fans. That was a brutal win against Cincy. Minus that fluky touchdown at the end, and Carson Palmer would have had the ball with a chance to pull off the upset in the final drive.
Don't kid yourselves, Dallas fans. That was a brutal win against Cincy. Minus that fluky touchdown at the end, and Carson Palmer would have had the ball with a chance to pull off the upset in the final drive. This team is showing the warning signs of one that is suffocated by the pressure created by outer space-high expectations on paper. Oh, and T.O. cried again ... on the sidelines ... and had to be talked out of sulking on the bench by owner P.T. Barnum -- err, Jerry Jones ... during the game. COOL STAT: Dallas has allowed the most points in the NFC East this season (111). THIS WEEK: at Cardinals (3-2)

6 Steelers4-1-3/6This is a character team, shown by a character win on the road against the team that knocked them out of the playoffs last season ... all while missing five injured starters, plus the team's top three running backs.
This is a character team, shown by a character win on the road against the team that knocked them out of the playoffs last season ... all while missing five injured starters, plus the team's top three running backs. After gutting out two tough wins against the Ravens and Jags, the Steelers will gladly accept this bye week to lick their wounds. COOL STAT: In Week 5, the Steelers held Jacksonville's RB duo of Fred Taylor and Maurice Jones-Drew to a combined 15 carries for 26 yards. THIS WEEK: Bye

7 Broncos4-127/21Denver's bounce-back win over Tampa in Week 5 was impressive, and especially cathartic for a defense that had been shredded all season. While Tampa is no offensive juggernaut, the Broncos needed to know they could win without scoring 30 points.

8 Bills4-117/20Hate to say "I told you so" but ... Nothing personal, Buffalo fans. There's still plenty to like about your team. Seemingly a few times each year, one of the NFL's top contenders gets tripped up in the trap game in Arizona's desert.

Seemingly a few times each year, one of the NFL's top contenders gets tripped up in the trap game in Arizona's desert. On the down side however, Trent Edwards "celebrating" his first concussion is frightening. Like Pittsburgh, Buffalo can really use this bye week. COOL STAT: The Bills have trailed entering the fourth quarter in four of their five games this season. THIS WEEK: Bye

9 Buccaneers3-218/17Tampa has played a tough schedule, and give credit to the defense for holding the talanted Broncos defense to only 16 points last week. Jon Gruden needs Mr. Miyagi to do his cool, Karate Kid, hand-healing thing on Bucs WR Joey Galloway, who is questionable to return to the lineup this week for the showdown with Carolina.

10 Bears3-2110/23Don't look now, but the Bears offense may (gulp) be catching up with their defense. Chicago has scored 24 or more in four of its five games, thanks to a steadier hand at both QB and RB. Kyle Orton seems to get better each week, while Matt Forte is a scary dual threat already who ranks fourth in the NFL in totals yards from scrimmage.

13 Eagles2-313/13For an offense already overly dependent on their star running back, the Eagles will be forced to draw up a new game plan with Brian Westbrook out with fractured ribs. Doesn't it seem like Andy Reid falls too much in love with his offensive flavor of the month? For years Reid rode Donovan McNabb into the ground, now he can't stop calling Westbrook's number even when playing hurt.
