Don’t draft a kicker in the second round.  Don’t draft a kicker in the second round.  Don’t draft a kicker in the second round.  That said, the kicker finally made a kick to beat the defending NFC Champion Panthers in Carolina.  What is going on?

22. New York Jets (18)

Since the Jets beat up on the Bills in week two it has been a long hard fall.  To be fair, they have played a miserably tough schedule to this point in the year, but the losses keep mounting.  At 1-4, playoff hopes seem to be just a distant memory.  Brandon Marshall may have to wait another year for his first ever shot at the dance.

23. Carolina Panthers (16)

Things have gone terribly wrong in Panther land.  Nobody could have seen this coming—this is a team that was 15-1 a season ago and absolutely dominated their way to the Super Bowl.  A team that lost a great corner, but also added a great receiver to help out the MVP quarterback improve upon a league-high scoring offense.  Now at 1-4, the season may be over.  Can Superman bring this team back from the dead in his return from a concussion?

24. Tennessee Titans (31)

Tennessee is a unique team that could either finish with a top-3 pick in the draft, or they could win their division and go to the playoffs.  Their schedule sets up very nicely for them to make a run in the next few weeks so we should know more where they are the former or the latter.
