The Arizona Cardinals got a chance to sit at home on Sunday while the rest of the NFC West was in action but it cost them a slight drop in the NFL Power Rankings

The Arizona Cardinals had a bye this week.  That was the good news.  The bad news is they still sit at 3-4-1 as they head into week 10 of the 2016 NFL season.  They ended up dropping just a bit in the NFL Power Rankings this week.

Hopefully the time off allowed the Cardinals some time to heal some wounds.  They will still be without safety Tyrann Mathieu in week 10.

As for the rest of the NFL, well there were some surprises and in other games it was business as usual.  The Cleveland Browns were still the Browns.  The New York Jets were still the Jets.

The Minnesota Vikings dropped their third straight game.  They look nothing like who they were the first five weeks of the season.  They were beat by the Detroit Lions who are now squarely in the midst of the NFC playoff race.
