The Saints are 2-6 and on a six-game losing streak after falling to the Chargers. The Panthers lost to the Broncos to drop to 1-7.

The NFC West is nearly in a perfect deadlock. The Cardinals are at the “bottom” of the division at 3-4 after beating the Dolphins. Every other team in the West is 4-4.

The 49ers beat the Cowboys, the Rams beat the Vikings and the Seahawks lost to the Bills. Those teams are now all tied for first place with the Cardinals half a game back. The 49ers are +110 favorites to win the West but every team is within striking distance.
