N.Y. Jets at Miami.


Miami Dolphins coach Joe Philbin refuses to break stride even as his team is struggling to regain its footing following two straight losses. Philbin and the Dolphins look to get back on track when they travel to London's Wembley Stadium to "host" the AFC East rival New York Jets on Sunday morning.

"This is not a time to panic," Philbin told reporters earlier this week on the heels of a lopsided 41-14 loss to Buffalo. "We're not getting 53 new players. We're not getting 24 new coaches. We're either going to find solutions to these problems or not, and we're going to stick together or not." Ryan Tannehill tossed three interceptions in the setback to the Bills, matching the three picks that Ryan Fitzpatrick threw in New York's 24-17 loss to Philadelphia last week. Former Dolphin Brandon Marshall reeled in 10 receptions for 109 yards and found the end zone for the third straight week, but his egregious lateral led to a fumble that sent the Jets into a tailspin.

TV: 9:30 a.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Jets -2. O/U: 41.5

ABOUT THE JETS (2-1): Running back Chris Ivory (quadriceps) hopes to get his uniform dirty on Sunday after being a spectator last week versus the Eagles. New York's ground game suffered as a result with just 33 yards on 10 carries, a far cry from the 91 yards on 20 rushes that Ivory accumulated in a 31-10 victory over Cleveland on Sept. 13. Ivory, however, was held in check in both meetings with Miami last season - totaling just 91 yards on 29 carries.

ABOUT THE DOLPHINS (1-2): While Tannehill has struggled to pay consistent dividends after signing a $96 million contract in the summer, wideouts Jarvis Landry (24 receptions, 230 yards) and Rishard Matthews (16 catches, 262 yards and three TDs) have proven to be reliable targets. Lamar Miller (30 carries, 105 yards) has failed to get out of the blocks this season after rushing for a career-high 1,099 yards in 2014, with a personal-best 178 yards and a touchdown coming in a 37-24 setback to the Jets to conclude the campaign. The Dolphins have rushed for an NFL fifth-worst 218 yards on the ground and will face a Jets' defense that has allowed a league-low 41 points this season.

EXTRA POINTS

1. While playing for Chicago, Marshall had six receptions for just 48 yards in his last meeting with Miami on Oct. 19.

2. Dolphins rookie DT Jordan Phillips has the team's lone sack this season, and he was inactive last week versus Buffalo.

3. Jets WR Eric Decker, who is questionable to miss his second straight game with a sprained knee, reeled in 10 receptions for a career-high 221 yards in his last meeting with Miami.

Jacksonville at Indianapolis.

Andrew Luck and the Indianapolis Colts needed a dramatic comeback a week ago to avoid an 0-3 start but they still find themselves in a four-way tie atop the AFC South as they prepare to host the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. The Colts have dominated the series against Jacksonville, winning five consecutive meetings by an average margin of 23.6 points.

While Luck is off to a shaky start, concerns were heightened in Indianapolis when the fourth-year quarterback did not throw for the second straight practice session on Thursday due to a sore shoulder. Luck was listed as limited, leaving 40-year-old Matt Hasselbeck in line to start if the former No. 1 overall pick is unable to play Sunday. Jacksonville upset the Miami Dolphins in Week 2 but came crashing back to Earth in last week's 51-17 setback at the New England Patriots. The Jaguars set two dubious franchise records, surrendering their highest point total and failing to force an opponent to punt for the first time.

TV: 1 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Colts -9. O/U: 48

ABOUT THE JAGUARS (1-2): Second-year quarterback Blake Bortles has thrown for 698 yards with five touchdowns and three interceptions, but he also is completing only 53.8 percent of his passes. Allen Robinson is his top target, averaging 22.7 yards per catch, but Jacksonville will be hoping for better production from rookie running back T.J. Yeldon, who is averaging 3.2 yards per carry and has yet to find the end zone. The Jaguars have been fairly stout against the run but are giving up an average of 282.7 yards through the air and have registered only six sacks.

ABOUT THE COLTS (1-2): Luck has struggled out of the gate, completing only 56 percent of his passes while throwing at least two interceptions in each game - and seven total - while failing to surpass 260 yards in the air. Wideout Donte Moncrief leads the team in receptions (17) and touchdowns while Andre Johnson has only seven catches and was blanked last week. Running back Frank Gore finally came alive last week with 86 yards and two TDs, but Indy's defense is surrendering 26.7 points per game and is even worse at pressure the passer than Jacksonville, collecting only four sacks.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Luck has thrown for 1,702 yards with 10 touchdowns versus three picks in six meetings versus Jacksonville.

2. Jaguars LB Paul Posluszny already has 34 tackles after making 14 last week.

3. Johnson needs six catches to move past Isaac Bruce (1,024) for eighth on the all-time list.

N.Y. Giants at Buffalo.


Rex Ryan may not like it but expect a shootout when the Buffalo Bills host the New York Giants on Sunday. Ryan's Bills are the third-highest scoring team in the league and both teams' secondaries have been picked apart to start the season, ranking at the very bottom of the NFL in passing defense.

Paced by first-year starter Tyrod Taylor, the Bills are averaging 33.3 points a game but expect to be without running back LeSean McCoy, who is still bothered by a hamstring injury. The Giants are also missing one of their stars as wide receiver Victor Cruz had hoped to make his season debut this week, but he aggravated a calf injury at practice and was ruled out. Even without the duo, both teams have scored in bunches this season. The Bills bounced back from their loss to New England with a blowout win at Miami last week while the Giants notched their first win of the season against the Redskins.

TV: 1 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Bills -5.5. O/U: 45.5.

ABOUT THE GIANTS (1-2): The Giants had hoped that Cruz would ratchet up a potentially impressive passing attack led by Odell Beckham Jr., who has caught 14 scoring passes in 15 career games. While clock management has been a problem, Eli Manning has thrown four touchdown passes without an interception and is a proven winner, beginning just one season with a 1-3 record or worse since entering the league 12 years ago. The Giants have won their past two trips to Buffalo but need to improve their ground game, which has not had a 100-yard rusher this season.

ABOUT THE BILLS (2-1): McCoy is doubtful and wide receiver Sammy Watkins is also questionable with a calf injury, but thus far Buffalo's offense has not missed a beat. Taylor has seven passing touchdowns in his first three games and Karlos Williams became the first player to score a touchdown in each of his first three games since Percy Harvin did so in 2009. Williams rushed for 110 yards last week and, even though McCoy has been injured, the Bills are the No. 1 rushing team in the NFL.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Giants rookie OT Ereck Flowers practiced on Thursday and is expected to play.

2. Giants CB Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie is questionable with a concussion.

3. The game could be impacted by the path of Hurricane Joaquin, which could bring soaking rains to the area.

Carolina at Tampa Bay.

The Carolina Panthers won the NFC South without even posting a .500 record last season but are looking like a team that can make it well past eight wins in 2015. Cam Newton and the Panthers will try to make it four in a row to start the season when they visit the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday.

Newton is drawing some early praise thanks to his seven total touchdowns during the team’s 3-0 start, and the former No. 1 overall pick is growing more comfortable every week. “Cam is one of those guys we truly believe in him,” Carolina coach Ron Rivera told reporters. “We believe he is the face of the franchise, that’s why we made the (long-term) commitment we did going into training camp with him.” The Buccaneers have their own No. 1 pick at quarterback in rookie Jameis Winston, a Florida State product who is enduring the ups and downs of his first year in the NFL while looking up to Newton. “(Newton’s) just a great person for me to look up and kind of model my style off of what he's been through,” Winston told reporters. “Basically, we've been through the same things, from (winning) the Heisman, then going to the league.”

TV: 1 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Panthers -3. O/U: 39.5

ABOUT THE PANTHERS (3-0): Charlotte made a move to replace defensive end Charles Johnson, who was placed on the injured reserve/designated to return list with a hamstring injury, by acquiring veteran Jared Allen from Chicago. Allen had been trying to transition to a standup end in a 3-4 defensive front in Chicago but is going back to his more familiar position of right end in a 4-3 alignment. “I understand the game with my hand on the ground,” Allen told reporters. “I feel like I can play faster, stronger, better leverage, better technique. This is where my heart and my home is, in a 4-3 defense.”

ABOUT THE BUCCANEERS (1-2): Winston sandwiched one solid performance in a Week 2 win at New Orleans between a pair of tough outings, and is trying to bounce back from a 17-of-36 passing performance in a 19-9 loss to Houston last week. Some of Winston’s struggles against the Texans stemmed from his tendency to lock in on receiver Mike Evans, who was targeted 17 times and hauled in only seven passes. “This team needs better from me, and I will get better,” Evans told reporters. “But it's in the past; the game's behind us… I'll work hard in practice this week and hopefully I'll make those plays come Sunday.”

EXTRA POINTS

1. Panthers LB Luke Kuechly (head) is still in the league’s concussion protocol and could miss his third straight game.

2. Tampa Bay K Kyle Brindza, who missed an extra-point attempt and three field-goal tries last week, will remain the starter.

3. Carolina has claimed the last four meetings in the series.

After a dismal performance against Dallas that dropped them to 0-2, the Philadelphia Eagles began feeling better about themselves by posting a 24-17 road victory over the New York Jets. They can continue to boost their confidence on Sunday, when they visit the NFC East-rival Washington Redskins.

Philadelphia bounced back from its clunker at home versus the hated Cowboys with a solid defensive effort, limiting New York to just 47 rushing yards while intercepting Ryan Fitzpatrick three times. New York's inability to run against the Eagles does not bode well for Washington, which gained only 88 rushing yards in its 32-21 home loss to the New York Giants in Week 3. The Redskins may have to rely on the arm of Kirk Cousins, who will make another start despite throwing four interceptions in the first three games. Cousins is unlikely to get much help in the form of former Eagle DeSean Jackson, who has missed two contests with a hamstring injury and is day-to-day.

TV: 1 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Eagles -3. O/U: 44.5

ABOUT THE EAGLES (1-2): While Sam Bradford has been less than impressive, Philadelphia is getting a big contribution from Darren Sproles thus far. The veteran running back was named the NFL's Special Teams Player of the Week after returning a punt 89 yards for a touchdown and rushing for another score against the Jets. Sproles joined Ockie Anderson, Curly Oden and Gale Sayers as the only players in NFL history to record both a punt-return and rushing touchdown in multiple games.

ABOUT THE REDSKINS (1-2): Alfred Morris' time as Washington's top running back may be over. The veteran gained 121 yards in the season opener but had just six carries for 19 yards against the Giants as Matt Jones rushed 11 times for 38 yards. It wasn't an impressive performance by Jones, but he was nominated for the NFC Rookie of the Month Award as he has produced 189 yards and two touchdowns over his first three games.

EXTRA POINTS

1. The Eagles have made a league-low two plays of 25 or more yards while the Redskins have produced four passing plays of similar yardage.

2. The home team has won the last three matchups in the series, with each of the last two decided by three points.

3. Philadelphia RB DeMarco Murray (hamstring) participated in Thursday's full practice but remains questionable to play against Washington.

Oakland at Chicago.

After ending a lengthy road losing streak last week at Cleveland, the Oakland Raiders attempt to make it two in a row when they visit the floundering Chicago Bears on Sunday. Oakland ended its 11-game slide on the road with a 27-20 triumph over the Browns, putting it one victory away from its first three-game winning streak since 2011.

The Raiders have a golden opportunity to match last season's overall win total and stay above .500 after four games for the first time since going 4-0 in 2002 when they invade the Windy City to take on the winless Bears. Chicago fell to 0-3 with last week's 26-0 setback at Seattle and began a fire sale soon after. Defensive end Jared Allen was traded to Carolina and linebacker Jonathan Bostic to New England, with the Bears receiving a pair of draft picks in return. Jay Cutler was limited in practice Thursday and is questionable to face Oakland, which hopes to make Jimmy Clausen 1-12 lifetime as a starter should it line up against him instead.

TV: 1 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Raiders -3. O/U: 45

ABOUT THE RAIDERS (2-1): While optimistic about its start, Oakland cannot be too pleased with its defense thus far. The Raiders surrendered fewer than 33 points for the first time this season last week but rank last in the league with an average of 414.7 yards allowed. Future Hall-of-Fame defensive back Charles Woodson made his 61st career interception in the final minute against Cleveland, putting him one away from tying Dick LeBeau and Dave Brown for ninth place on the all-time list.

ABOUT THE BEARS (0-3): Clausen was ineffective - to say the least - last week, going 9-of-17 for 63 yards as Chicago gained only 146 total yards en route to being shut out for the first time since 2002. The Bears, who are in danger of starting 0-4 for the first time since 2000, also are struggling defensively as they've yielded a league-high 35 points per game. Matt Forte has been held in check, gaining a total of 135 yards on the ground over his last two contests after rushing for 141 in the season opener.

EXTRA POINTS

1. The Bears have allowed a kickoff to be returned for a touchdown in each of their last two games.

2. Raiders K Sebastian Janikowski will tie Tim Brown's team record when he appears in his 240th contest on Sunday.

3. The teams are meeting for the first time since Nov. 27, 2011, when Oakland posted a 25-20 victory at home.

Houston at Atlanta.

The Atlanta Falcons look for their second 4-0 start in four years when they host the Houston Texans on Sunday. The Falcons could stand to win with a bit more ease, though, after becoming the first team in NFL history to capture their first three games after trailing in the fourth quarter of each.

The Texans haven’t had as much luck in close games, losing their first two contests by seven points apiece before closing out a 19-9 win over Tampa Bay last week. Atlanta’s hot start has been built on the strength of its high-powered passing game led by Matt Ryan and Julio Jones, but the Texans have been tough against the pass. Houston has limited opponents to 53.8 percent passing, the lowest mark in the NFL. The Texans’ offense had a tough time cashing in against the Buccaneers despite recording a season-high 413 total yards, and running back Arian Foster (groin) is close to making his season debut.

TV: 1 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Falcons -6.5. O/U: 46.5


ABOUT THE TEXANS (1-2): Houston has attempted a league-high 144 passes, with Ryan Mallett igniting the passing game since taking over in the fourth quarter of the season opener. Mallett and DeAndre Hopkins (22 catches, 252 yards, three touchdowns) have developed a solid rapport, and Alfred Blue sparked the offense with 139 rushing yards last week. The Texans need defensive end J.J. Watt to lead the pass rush against Ryan after being held without a sack last week for the first time in eight games.
ABOUT THE FALCONS (3-0): Ryan leads the NFC with 946 passing yards along with five touchdowns, and Jones has been his primary target. The fifth-year wideout is putting up record numbers with 34 receptions – the most in NFL history through three games – and at least 135 receiving yards in each contest, and the Falcons got the ground game going in last week’s 39-28 win at Dallas as DeVonta Freeman racked up a career-high 141 yards and three touchdowns. The defense has been susceptible, especially against the pass, but it has forced four turnovers to help mitigate the damage.

EXTRA POINTS
1. Ryan is 40-15 at home in his career with a 97.1 rating.
2. Houston signed Nick Novak after releasing fellow K Randy Bullock, who missed two extra points and a field goal in the first three games.
3. The Falcons have converted 53.3 percent of their third downs - the second-highest rate in the league - while the Texans rank second in third-down defense, holding opponents to a 21.1 percent conversion rate.

Kansas City at Cincinnati.


The Cincinnati Bengals aim for their first 4-0 start since 2005 when they host the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. The Chiefs are trying to avoid their third straight defeat – they were torched by Aaron Rodgers and company in a 38-28 loss at Green Bay on Monday night – and have a tough task in slowing down Cincinnati’s passing game.



Cincinnati quarterback Andy Dalton recorded a career-high 383 passing yards while throwing for three touchdowns and rushing for another in rallying his team to a 28-24 win at Baltimore last week. But the Bengals have been here before – they started 3-0 a year ago before finishing 10-5-1 and losing in the wild-card round for the fourth straight year. “It just reminds me of last year when we were 3-0, then we kind of blew it,” running back Jeremy Hill told reporters. “We’re not content with what we have right now. We have to keep on pounding and keep on working.” The Bengals have won three straight meetings with Kansas City, which hasn’t won at Cincinnati since 1984.
TV: 1 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Bengals -4. O/U: 44.5



ABOUT THE CHIEFS (1-2): Kansas City has to find a way to sustain drives, having converted just 5-of-30 third-down tries - by far the worst rate in the league. If the Chiefs can keep the offense on the field, they have a nice collection of weapons around quarterback Alex Smith - including running back Jamaal Charles (231 rushing yards, four touchdowns), receiver Jeremy Maclin (17 catches, 250 yards, one TD) and tight end Travis Kelce (16, 244, two). The struggling secondary gets back Sean Smith from a three-game suspension for violating the league’s substance-abuse policy, which will help the Chiefs make up for the loss of fellow cornerback Phillip Gaines, who suffered a season-ending knee injury against the Packers.
ABOUT THE BENGALS (3-0): Dalton’s maturity as a quarterback has stabilized Cincinnati’s offense, as the fifth-year signal-caller leads the AFC with a 121 rating, and A.J. Green had a game for the ages last week with 10 receptions for 227 yards and two touchdowns - including the game-winner. The ground game took a downward tick last week, but the one-two punch of Hill and Giovani Bernard has combined for 358 rushing yards and two scores. The Bengals have been tough against the run - holding two opponents under 100 yards - and have forced six turnovers, but they gave up a whopping 362 passing yards last week.



EXTRA POINTS
1. The Chiefs have allowed 14 sacks while the Bengals have given up only two.
2. Dalton is aiming for the first streak of four consecutive games with a triple-digit QB rating of his career.
3. Kansas City already has allowed five rushing touchdowns through three games after yielding an NFL-low four last season.

Cleveland at San Diego.

Philip Rivers has been under constant pressure throughout the season and was reduced to a spectator as the San Diego Chargers dropped their second straight contest. After getting the wind knocked out of him last week, the veteran quarterback looks to help the Chargers rebound when they host the Cleveland Browns on Sunday.

An ailing offensive line has been part of the problem for Rivers, who has been sacked four times in San Diego last two games - a 24-19 setback to Cincinnati in Week 2 and a 31-14 loss to Minnesota on Sunday. When protected, Rivers routinely has found a familiar target in Keenan Allen, as the third-year wideout ranks third in the NFL with 29 receptions and sixth with 315 yards. Pro Bowl cornerback Joe Haden is expected to keep tabs on Allen, but Cleveland's more public issue remains whether Josh McCown or Johnny Manziel is under center. McCown went 28-for-49 for 341 yards and two touchdowns last week but his late interception proved costly in the Browns' 27-20 setback to Oakland.

TV: 4:05 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Chargers -7.5. O/U: 45

ABOUT THE BROWNS (1-2): Travis Benjamin continued his strong start to the season by reeling in his fourth touchdown in three games last week. The 25-year-old only has 10 catches to share the team lead with tight end Gary Barnidge. Dwayne Bowe, who signed a two-year, $12.5 million deal in March, could return to the field on Sunday after seeing just eight snaps this season due to a nagging hamstring injury.

ABOUT THE CHARGERS (1-2): Rookie running back Melvin Gordon admitted that he's "hungry to score" after being held out of the end zone in his first three contests. The rookie running back has rolled up 190 yards on 44 carries and could be in line to get to the dinner table against a Cleveland club that has allowed the most rushing yards (475) and the second-highest yards per carry (4.9). Unfortunately for Gordon, San Diego left tackle King Dunlap (concussion), left guard Orlando Franklin (ankle) and center Chris Watt (groin) did not practice on either Wednesday or Thursday and right guard D.J. Fluker (ankle) is also ailing.

EXTRA POINTS

1. The Chargers' eight turnovers are second only to Indianapolis (10) for the most in the league.

2. Cleveland has lost three straight meetings in San Diego and hasn't emerged victorious since an overtime win in 1991.

3. The Chargers have recorded just one sack, tied with Miami for the fewest in the NFL.

Green Bay at San Francisco.

After seeing their defense ripped to shreds in each of the last two games, the San Francisco 49ers face the unenviable task of attempting to slow down Aaron Rodgers and the visiting Green Bay Packers on Sunday. Rodgers was in rare form on Monday, throwing three of his five touchdown passes to Randall Cobb in Green Bay's 38-28 victory over Kansas City to earn NFC Offensive Player of the Week honors.

Rodgers has completed 73.6 percent of his throws through three games, significantly better than his career-best mark of 68.3 in 2011 and Drew Brees' NFL record of 70.62 in 2009. The two-time NFL MVP has thrown a league-high 10 touchdowns and has yet to toss an interception - with the latter being an all-too-frequent occurrence for Colin Kaepernick. The San Francisco quarterback was picked off four times last week - the first two were returned for touchdowns - in a 47-7 shellacking by Arizona. For all of his troubles, Kaepernick owns a 3-0 career with two postseason victories over Green Bay.

TV: 4:25 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Packers -8.5. O/U: 48.5

ABOUT THE PACKERS (3-0): James Jones hasn't missed a beat since returning to Green Bay, tying Cobb for the team lead with four touchdown receptions - one shy of Arizona's Larry Fitzgerald for the league lead. Fellow wideout Davante Adams (sprained ankle) lasted just three plays versus the Chiefs and hasn't practiced this week, but disputed reports that he is nursing a high-ankle sprain. A sprained right ankle didn't slow Eddie Lacy, who rushed for 46 yards on 10 carries last week and caught all three passes despite sharing a bit more time than usual with backup James Starks.

ABOUT THE 49ERS (1-2): With Kaepernick struggling, San Francisco needs to receive a jolt from its ground game in order to ignite an offense that is averaging a league-low 15 points per contest. Carlos Hyde set the NFL on its ear with a 168-yard, two-touchdown performance in the season opener, but has been limited to just 94 yards on 28 carries in a pair of blowout losses to Pittsburgh and Arizona. The 24-year-old is nursing a minor leg injury, while fellow running back Reggie Bush returned to practice for the first time since straining his left calf in the season opener.

EXTRA POINTS

1. San Francisco's minus-4 turnover differential is the third-worst in the league, trailing only Indianapolis (minus-7) and Washington (minus-5).

2. Green Bay LB Julius Peppers, 35, has recorded 2.5 sacks over the last two weeks.

3. The 49ers have permitted 15 pass plays of 20 or more yards, which is tied with Oakland for the most in the NFL.

St. Louis at Arizona.

The high-flying Arizona Cardinals, undefeated and leading the NFL in scoring, go for their fourth consecutive victory when they host the St. Louis Rams on Sunday in an NFC West matchup. Arizona's hot start has been sparked by quarterback Carson Palmer, who suffered a season-ending torn ACL in a victory over the Rams in November 2014.

"What happened last time we played them?" joked Palmer, who has thrown for nine touchdowns and only two interceptions in the Cardinals' hot start, which includes a combined 95 points over the past two weeks. Arizona has yet to trail this season and is averaging 42 points following last week's 47-7 annihilation of San Francisco. The Rams need to get their offense untracked after scoring a combined 16 points in consecutive defeats against the Washington Redskins and Pittsburgh Steelers. The Cardinals have won the last three meetings while limiting St. Louis to a total of 30 points.

TV: 4:25 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Cardinals -7. O/U: 42.5

ABOUT THE RAMS (1-2): Nick Foles, acquired in an offseason trade for fellow quarterback Sam Bradford, has tossed only one interception but has only two scoring passes for St. Louis, which ranks last in the NFL in total yards per game (274.3). Rookie Todd Gurley, the No. 10 overall pick in this year's draft, made his season debut last week and rushed for only nine yards on six carries in his first action since tearing a knee ligament at Georgia last season. Defensive tackle Aaron Donald is an emerging star on a defense that is tied for the league lead with 13 sacks.

ABOUT THE CARDINALS (3-0): The return of Palmer has sparked a revival in the career of wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald, who has 23 catches on the season and has hauled in five touchdown passes over the past two weeks. Chris Johnson, signed in late August, has provided a huge lift in the absence of injured starter Andre Ellington, rushing for 110 yards and a pair of touchdowns last week. Arizona's secondary promises to provide a formidable challenge for Foles after returning a pair of interceptions for touchdowns less than six minutes into last week's win over the 49ers.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Palmer has won his last nine starts, the longest active streak in the league.

2. Rams leading WR Kenny Britt did not practice Tuesday and Wednesday due to an ailing shoulder.

3. Fitzgerald has at least one catch in 173 straight games, playoffs included.

Minnesota at Denver.

There are only seven undefeated teams remaining in the NFL, and the Denver Broncos will try to remain a member of that group when they host the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. The Vikings are winners of two straight after dropping their season opener and Adrian Peterson is beginning to regain his MVP form after missing nearly an entire campaign.

There were questions about both Peterson and Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning after slow starts to the season, but both have proven they still are potent offensive weapons over the last couple of games. Manning is in the process of combining his style of play with coach Gary Kubiak’s run-oriented offense, and he turned in his best performance of the season while operating out of the pistol formation in a 24-12 win at Detroit last Sunday. Peterson managed 31 yards in Minnesota’s season-opening loss at San Francisco but totaled 260 in home wins over Detroit and San Diego. The former MVP will be going up against a Denver front that ranks sixth in the NFL against the rush, allowing an average of 82.7 yards.

TV: 4:25 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Broncos -7. O/U: 43

ABOUT THE VIKINGS (2-1): The combination of a strong running game and a strong defense have set expectations high for Minnesota, and that defense could have cornerback Xavier Rhodes back from a concussion in time for Sunday. Rhodes and company are preparing for a test despite the fact that Denver enters the week 30th in the NFL in total offense with an average of 290.7 yards. “If you make a mistake, (Manning’s) going to find it,” coach Mike Zimmer told reporters. “That’s one of the big things. Sometimes you make a mistake in some other ballgames and you get away with it because the quarterback didn’t see it. He’s not going to miss any. We’re going to have to be on point with everything we do.”

ABOUT THE BRONCOS (3-0): While Manning and the offense are just starting to round into form, the Denver defense has been one of the top units in the NFL from Week 1. The Broncos are limiting opponents to league-leading averages of 259 total yards and 176.3 passing yards while sitting second in the NFL with 10 takeaways, led by Aquib Talib’s two interceptions. "We have a long way to go, but (the defense has) been special because it's been deep with a lot of guys playing,” Kubiak told reporters. “And it has a special thing about when it gets its hands on the football, which it does a great deal, it makes big plays.”

EXTRA POINTS

1. Broncos T Ty Sambrailo (shoulder) was held out of practice Wednesday and is questionable.

2. Peterson needs one more TD to pass Randy Moss (93) for second place on Minnesota’s all-time list.

3. Denver is averaging 57 rushing yards and totaled one TD on the ground in the first three weeks.

Dallas at New Orleans.

Drew Brees declared that he is "very confident" he'll be under center when the New Orleans Saints vie for their first victory of the season when they host the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night. Nursing a bruised rotator cuff in his right shoulder, the veteran quarterback made the proclamation on Wednesday during a taping of The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Brees has been a limited participant in practice on both Wednesday and Thursday after sitting out last week's 27-22 setback to NFC South rival Carolina. The Cowboys won't shed a tear for the plight of the Saints, as quarterback Tony Romo (broken collarbone) will remain a bystander until at least Week 11 while the return of flashy wideout Dez Bryant (foot) is still up in the air. Backup Brandon Weeden fared well by completing 22-of-26 passes for 232 yards, but was unable to stretch the field as Dallas unraveled late and dropped a 39-28 decision to Atlanta. While Weeden is attempting to snap a nine-start losing streak, the Saints are hoping to avoid an 0-4 start for the third time in nine years (2007, 2012).

TV: 8:30 p.m. ET, NBC. LINE: Off. O/U: Off

ABOUT THE COWBOYS (2-1): Running backs Joseph Randle and Lance Dunbar enjoyed career performances last week, with the former rushing for 87 yards and three touchdowns while the latter had a personal-best 10 receptions for 100 yards. Tight end Jason Witten has 21 catches to enjoy his best three-game start to a season and looks to exploit a New Orleans' defense that has surrendered 17 receptions for 268 yards and three touchdowns to tight ends. "(The Panthers moved Greg Olsen) around and were able to hit on some big plays, some good throws and good catches, so you always hope you can kind of capitalize on some areas there," Witten told ESPN.

ABOUT THE SAINTS (0-3): Mark Ingram has struggled to get untracked on the ground (3.3 yards per carry), but the former Heisman Trophy winner has matched Brandin Cooks for the team lead with 16 receptions. Coach Sean Payton told the team's official website that they'd like to expand the role of running back C.J. Spiller, who has been limited to four rushes for 11 yards and three receptions for 41 yards in two games since returning from knee surgery. Khiry Robinson, who leads the team with a 4.0 rushing average, amassed 105 total yards in New Orleans' 38-17 setback to Dallas in 2014.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Dallas can establish a franchise record with 11 consecutive road victories with a win Sunday, while New Orleans is looking to snap a six-game skid at home.

2. Brees sits two passing touchdowns shy of 400 for his career.

3. Cowboys WR Terrance Williams, held without a catch last week, reeled in six catches for 77 yards and two touchdowns in his last meeting with the Saints.
