NEW ORLEANS SAINTS
The Panthers and Saints meet in an NFC South clash. New Orleans won the first bout and will look to improve to 3-2 in divisional play this week. Carolina is suddenly in the division's top spot.
MIAMI DOLPHINS
PITTSBURGH STEELERS
It's hard to tell which would be the bigger borderline miracle: the Dolphins making the playoffs or head coach Mike McDaniel saving his job after he was as good as fired a month ago.
INDIANAPOLIS COLTS
SEATTLE SEAHAWKS

SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS

LAS VEGAS RAIDERS
PHILADELPHIA EAGLES
He was 8 of 11 for 116 yards after taking over for Smith against Denver. He's on organization #4 after the Steelers drafted him and discarded him. The overwhelming likelihood is that he's a backup in the league. Given the circumstances, they might as well look at him.
