3-8-1. Previous: . Philadelphia Eagles. 28. team. 54.

Off a short week and a third consecutive loss, the Eagles made their way to Lambeau Field for the second straight year. Carson Wentz hit on just 6-of-15 passes for 79 yards and was sacked four times before being bumped for rookie Jalen Hurts. Of course, he also hit on less than 50 percent of his throws (5-of-12) and was dropped three times but did throw for one score as well as a late interception. The Eagles’ defense allowed 437 total yards.

27. team. 56. . 2-9-1. Previous: . Cincinnati Bengals

The club has dropped three straight games and will finish below .500 for the fifth consecutive year. And the Bengals had a tall task Sunday when they visited the Miami Dolphins. But Zac Taylor’s team hung around for most of the day despite an offense that gained only 196 total yards. Brandon Allen (1 TD pass) was sacked five times and he and Ryan Finely both threw interceptions. Cincinnati owned a 7-0 first-quarter lead and never scored again.

44. . 4-8. Previous: . Atlanta Falcons. 26. team

Winners of four of their last six contests after a 0-5 start, the Falcons hosted the streaking Saints looking to avenge a 24-9 loss in Week 11. Atlanta’s defense had no answers for a balanced Saints’ attack that rolled up 424 total yards, including 207 yards rushing. Matt Ryan threw for 273 yards and one score but was sacked three times and lost a fumble. The Falcons’ attack managed one touchdown while Calvin Ridley caught five passes for 108 yards.

Houston Texans. 25. team. 10. . 4-8. Previous:

Winner of two straight games, the club hosted the rival Colts. Deshaun Watson had a rough afternoon despite throwing for 341 yards. He was sacked five times, including once for a safety. He did run seven times for 38 yards and one score but he also turned over the ball twice. And it was the second miscue that proved costly as he fumbled a low shotgun snap deep in Colts’ territory (via Greg Rajan of the Houston Chronicle) and lost the ball.
