On a day with a great game in each window -- naturally, the most entertaining were the wins by the Houston Texans and Minnesota Vikings. I will get to those.

The Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs each head into their bye weeks off wins preceding a Monday Night Football showdown in Arrowhead, even though both flirted with blowing double-digit leads. The Chiefs' defense, which is the strength of its team this year, held on and they're 7-2. The Miami Dolphins continue to struggle with the best teams they play -- they've lost each game against a team with a winning record.
