Surprisingly Good

The Cleveland Browns thought they had given another game away last week. Instead, they got new life and unexpected new hope in the AFC North.

The Browns (6-4) look to build on a wild win when they come home to face the surging Houston Texans (5-5) on Sunday.

AFC West Matchup in KC

The Kansas City Chiefs are mired in a three-game losing streak, and their first-string quarterback and running back have one NFL start between them.

A home game against the lowly Oakland Raiders appears to have come along at just the right time.

Overcoming Injuries

The Jacksonville Jaguars have had little trouble overcoming injuries to key players.

They'll look to do it again Sunday in trying for a third straight win when they host the Buffalo Bills, who are hoping to bounce back from the worst loss in franchise history.

Looking to Rebound

Entering Week 10, the Tennessee Titans were tied for the third-best record in the AFC, thanks in part to one of the league's best defenses. An uncharacteristic inability to stop the run the last two weeks, however, has dropped them to third place in their division.

The Titans (6-4) look to rebound from back-to-back losses Sunday when they visit the struggling Cincinnati Bengals (3-7), who have had defensive problems of their own all season.

On a Roll Into Chicago

Behind a suddenly explosive offense led by Jay Cutler, the Denver Broncos have moved into a tie for first place in the AFC West. The Chicago Bears, meanwhile, have a slim chance of returning to the playoffs with their defense in disarray.

The Broncos look to get another strong performance from their offense and win their third straight game Sunday when they visit the struggling Bears.
