As we reach the midway point of the season, there are still a few surprises to be seen.
Who would have thought the Raiders would be approaching the top 10 of our Power Rankings at the beginning of the season? Derek Carr and Amari Cooper have been brilliant and are giving us some serious thoughts the Raiders could be a wild team in an otherwise mediocre AFC this year, save for a few teams, and a lot of disappointments.
Overall there are still five undefeated teams, Denver, Green Bay, Carolina, New England and Cincinnati, two of which play against each other on Sunday Night, meaning at the most, there will be four when the weekend ends.
Speaking of the Arizona Cardinals specifically, it wasn’t a pretty game, but it was a win against a very good “bad” team in Baltimore. Now its on to Cleveland to play against, well, who knows.
