15.) Philadelphia Eagles (4-4)

Despite the Cowboys being undermanned without Tony Romo, the Eagles were pushed to the brink in Dallas. In DeMarco Murray’s return to Dallas, he totaled 83 rushing yards, one rushing touchdown, six receptions, and 78 receiving yards. The Eagles’ offense looked very good against the Cowboys, but their defense was torched by an offense that has really struggled without their starting quarterback.

14.) Seattle Seahawks (4-4)

It hasn’t been a great first half of the season for the Seahawks, as they are 4-4 and looking up at the Cardinals in the NFC West. In Week 10, the Seahawks will have a chance to get closer to the Cardinals, as they face them in Seattle. The Seahawks really need to improve their pass protection for Russell Wilson in the second half, and they also need to get Jimmy Graham involved in the offense more.

13.) St. Louis Rams (4-4)

The Rams fell just short of an important road win against the Vikings in Week 9. Todd Gurley still played well in the loss, as he totaled 89 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown, but he was outplayed by Peterson. St. Louis could certainly use more from Nick Foles, who hasn’t done much of anything for them this season.
