6.) Atlanta Falcons (6-1)
It wasn’t a pretty win for the Falcons in Week 7, but they were able to defeat the Titans on the road. For the third straight week, turnovers were a problem for the Falcons, as Matt Ryan threw two interceptions in the win. The Falcons have had the luxury of playing weak teams in the rough stretch, or they may very well have three losses by now.
5.) Denver Broncos (6-0)
The Broncos were one of the teams on their bye in Week 7, which came at a good time with a huge game on Sunday Night Football looming. The Broncos are still undefeated, but they look like the worst of the undefeated teams in the NFL, and that is shocking because Peyton Manning has been the problem. In 2015, Manning looks like a shell of himself, and it seems like just a matter of time before the Broncos lose their first game.
4.) Carolina Panthers (6-0)
After a big win against the Seahawks in Seattle, the Panthers were able to improve to 6-0 with a win against the Eagles. It wasn’t pretty game from Cam Newton who totaled just 197 passing yards, one touchdown pass, and three interceptions, but he was picked up by running back Jonathan Stewart. In the win, Stewart totaled 125 rushing yards, and he was a main reason for the 27-16 win.
