It’s hard to understand the Colts. One week they are losing at home to the now-benched Brock Osweiler, and the next they are dismantling a Minnesota team that was fighting for their playoff lives. It’s bizarre to say the least.

22. Cincinnati Bengals (18)

Dalton and Co. certainly made the Steelers sweat for a bit. However, this has truly been a lost season. At what point does Marvin Lewis finally get shown the door?

23. Minnesota Vikings (17)

For a team fighting for their playoff lives, that was absolutely pathetic. It has to make Adrian Peterson wonder why he made such a quick comeback.

24. Arizona Cardinals (20)

That 2015 week 17 pounding they took really seems now like it was the beginning of the end. The Cardinals, despite a very similar roster has been a shell of what they were for 15 games a year ago.  Time to rebuild around David Johnson.
