Who were the NFL‘s biggest winners and losers from Week 5?

With everything but the game between the Seattle Seahawks and Washington Redskins in the books, it’s time for a look at the week’s winners and losers. Some of my selections are team efforts while others are individual.

And as always, some of these could reverse course in Week 6.

As things stand post-Sunday though, some teams or people would want to forget the whole day while others will want to hang into it for quite a while longer.
