Must-Watch Matchups
Dallas Cowboys vs. Green Bay Packers
As mentioned above, the Packers head into Sunday's matchup with the league's best run defense.
Green Bay is allowing less than two yards per attempt. Heading into Week 6, the Packers are the only team to have allowed fewer than 200 rushing yards (171) on the year.
On the other side of that equation, however, is Elliott, who leads the league in rushing with 546 yards on 109 carries for an average of five yards per attempt.
Elliott also has five touchdowns, though the Packers have allowed just one rushing score all season.
Plus, the Cowboys boast one of the NFL's best offensive lines, which is no doubt a key to Elliott's success.
This battle comes down to Green Bay's front seven being able to contain Elliott from reaching the second level of the defense, because if the rookie is matched up against the Packers defensive backs, he'll likely outrun them every time.
Atlanta Falcons vs. Seattle Seahawks
The Atlanta Falcons sit atop the NFC South with a 4-1 record and are tied with the Cowboys for the second-best record in the NFC.
The Seattle Seahawks lead the NFC West with a 3-1 record.
These two teams could remain at the top of their divisions to close out the year and meet each other in the playoffs.
Like the Packers run defense against the Cowboys rushing offense, the Falcons-Seahawks matchup is also a battle of strengths, only through the air in this case. Atlanta ranks first not only in passing yards but also in points and passer rating.
Atlanta wideout Julio Jones is third in the league in yards per game with 103.4.
The Seahawks, on the other hand, rank second in passing defense and first in total defense.
Can Seattle's secondary slow down Jones and Matt Ryan? If the Seahawks can luck out with some help from the rain in the current Weather.com forecast, they may force Atlanta to run the ball and slow down its high-octane passing offense.
Cincinnati Bengals vs. New England Patriots
Tom Brady returned to action without missing a beat in Week 5, leading the New England Patriots to a 33-13 dismantling of the Cleveland Browns. In Cleveland.
In Week 6, Brady and the Patriots will host the other Ohio team, the Cincinnati Bengals, at home at Gillette Stadium.
Per Sharon Katz and Jacob Nitzberg of ESPN.com, Brady is 48-1 at home against AFC opponents since 2007. That doesn't bode well for the Bengals, who sit in third place in the AFC North with a 2-3 record.
Plus, Cincinnati has to deal with more than just Brady and the offense. The Patriots defense is allowing just 14.8 points per game, good for fourth-best in the league.
The last time these two teams met in Foxborough in 2014, the Bengals lost 43-17.
