Last week: 19 (+4)

Record: 5-4

Their schedule is still brutal from this point out (as is the case with pretty much the whole NFC North) as they head to Chicago, Green Bay, St. Louis, and Houston, while hosting Chicago and Green Bay. How would you like to play Chicago, Green Bay, and Houston in 5 of 6 weeks? However, it’s good they were able to get back in the win column and break Christian Ponder out of his funk. Percy Harvin is due back after the break and they still have the talent to compete if Ponder can continue to play well.
