Yikes. Among the many issues Sunday night was converting on third down. Cincinnati was 0-for-7, the second time since 2001 the Bengals didn’t convert a single third-down play.

Finally, a team to run against. Eddie Lacy ran for 78 yards before contact against Minnesota Thursday night. He had 80 rushing yards before contact in Green Bay’s first four games combined.

Carolina (3-2) is the only team at or above .500 that has been outscored by opponents (minus-16) this year. A brutal stretch starts with a trip to Cincinnati.

The Saints are 2-0 at home and 0-3 on the road. After the bye, New Orleans heads to Detroit with a chance to prove it can win on the road.

The silver lining hunt continues. Jacksonville allowed only 17 points Sunday, its lowest in a game since Week 12 of last season. The problem: The Jaguars scored nine.

32

Raiders
0-4

Last Week: 32

Nine of Oakland’s 12 remaining games are against opponents currently at or above .500. Jacksonville’s in the same boat, meaning one of those teams won’t even win the first pick.
