Cowboys Offense ... The Cowboys offense has been dreadful their last three games. Fortunately, they are coming off a bye and they're not playing the 2000 Ravens defense. Dallas, at least for one week, gets it together offensively. (AP Photo/Tony Gutierrez)

Seahawks Beat th... New England's offense may be humming, but winning in Seattle is difficult, especially with the way the Seahawks' defense is playing. Seattle improves to 3-0 at home this season. (AP Photo/Tom Gannam)

Michael Vick Doe... Two weeks ago I predicted the Eagles quarterback wouldn't commit a turnover against the Giants. Hit that! This time I'm not going quite as bold, but bold enough considering Vick's a fumbling machine (8) so far this year. (AP Photo/Mel Evans)

Kyle Williams Sc... The 49ers wide receiver won't be returning punts against the Giants now that Ted Ginn Jr. is back from injury, but he will get his redemption as a receiver. Williams' fumble cost the 49ers a chance to reach last season's Super Bowl. Those pesky Giants—who are back in San Francisco on Sunday—happened to win that thing. (AP Photo/Tony Avelar)

Vikings Hot Stre... Minnesota is 4-1. The Redskins are 2-3. Robert Griffin III (concussion) may or may not play Sunday in Washington. If he does, as expected, the 'Skins give the Vikings a taste of reality. (AP Photo/Margaret Bowles)

Packers Hand Tex... The Packers are going to play this one in Houston on Sunday night like it's their Super Bowl. They can't afford to be 2-4. Houston, meanwhile, is on a short work week after playing the Jets on Monday night. It's also the Texans' first full game without inside linebacker Brian Cushing, who is out for the season with a torn ACL. (AP Photo/Jeffrey Phelps)

Jets Rush for Ov... It's been five weeks since the Jets rushed for more than 100 yards—as a team! They get it done Sunday against Indy's 25th-ranked run defense. Some semblance of a running game should help out the Jets' quarterbacks (plural). (AP Photo/Bill Kostroun)

Broncos Defense ... If there is one thing Denver's defense can do it is rush the passer. If there is one thing the Chargers offense struggles with it is protecting the passer. You can see where this one is headed. (AP Photo/Joe Mahoney)

Bills Allow Less... After allowing 97 points the last two weeks combined, Buffalo's defense comes to play in Arizona. It also doesn't hurt that the depleted Cards have the NFL's 31st-ranked offense. (AP Photo/David Duprey)
