(4-1) Packers 5. The Packers, like most teams, aren't good enough to turn the ball over five times, commit 12 penalties and still win. 'We're not a bad football team, but we're not great either,' said Brett Favre after the loss to the Bears.
(2-3) Bears 15. Although the Bears knocked the Packers from the ranks of the unbeatens, just how impressive was the win? The Chicago defense was steamrolled in the first half, and the rushing game produced only 82 yards on 33 attempts.
(3-2) Lions 18. Take away the fourth-quarter, 34-point explosion against the Bears, and this much-ballyhooed Lions offense has been held out of the end zone in its past 10 quarters. But hey, it can't be Mike Martz's fault. After all, he's an offensive genius.
(1-3) Vikings 27. A tough stretch awaits the Vikings coming out of their bye week. They face four consecutive playoff teams from 2006, starting with Sunday's game at Chicago, then must travel to Green Bay in Week 10. Minnesota needs to improve in a hurry.
