6. Cincinnati Bengals (Last week: 7)

Despite everybody and their mom picking Baltimore and Pittsburgh to retake the NFC North, the Bengals proved they still belong. What a statement win against those Ravens on the road.

What to know: Andy Dalton‘s game-winning 77-yard pass to A.J. Green with 4:58 left in the contest came just moments removed from Joe Flacco‘s long bomb to Steve Smith. Dalton was 6-of-8 for 131 yards and that score when targeting his No. 1 receiver Green.
