Summary

The NFL has a strong middle class so far this year, but the question remains as to whether any of these teams are actually good enough to make some noise in the winter. First, the Dallas Cowboys offense is scorching hot with Dak Prescott and his two elite receivers, but is the defense respectable enough for it to matter? The Carolina Panthers are the sneakiest team in the NFL with a winning record, but this Bryce Young injury could derail the momentum. The Los Angeles Chargers defensive magic seems to be gone as well and Justin Herbert may not be enough to keep them afloat while the Washington Commanders can't seem to keep Jayden Daniels healthy. Finally, the Jacksonville Jaguars and Atlanta Falcons are both very talented teams, but they can't seem to get out of their own way when it actually matters.
