3. Green Bay Packers (6-1)

Recap: We saw some vintage Aaron Rodgers in the Green Bay Packers’ Week 7 win over the Oakland Raiders. The future Hall of Fame quarterback threw his 350th career touchdown and was slinging it all over the field against the Raiders on Sunday. Oakland actually did a good job hanging in there with the Pack for most of the first half, but it was all downhill for Jon Gruden and Co. when Rodgers tossed a touchdown pass to close out the first half.

Outlook: Once again, the Packers saw their defense come to play in Week 7 and Matt LaFleur’s team looks like the most complete squad Green Bay has seen in many years, with the defense complementing the offense perfectly. Up next for Rodgers and the Packers is a Week 8 matchup on the road with the Kansas City Chiefs. The Packers are fortunate going into this one, as star quarterback Patrick Mahomes will not suit up for the Chiefs.
