Wes ODonnellNov 7, 2011

Week 10 finally puts us back on a full slate of games.

No byes this week and lots more action.

We also get back to Thursday Night Football on NFL Network, which will give two teams a very, very short week.

Here a few teams who have the most to gain from notching another win in Week 10.

San Diego Chargers

One of those two teams that happens to play on Thursday this week, the Chargers have a lot of work to do.

They played the defending champion Green Bay Packers tough, but ultimately came up short in a game they had to win.

This week, they'll take on division rival Oakland at home in a must-win game.

The Chiefs and Raiders both lost in Week 9, while the Broncos won.

San Diego needs a win to grasp the lead in the AFC West or will risk falling behind again.

New York Giants

Every week is a must-win for the Giants in this ridiculous six-game stretch they're in.

They got a phenomenal start with the win over New England in Week 9 and can inch even closer to a possible No. 2 seed in the NFC with a win over the 49ers this week.

Big Blue will get a crack at nearly every top NFC team before the season is out.

If they can beat San Francisco before moving on to Philadelphia, New Orleans and Green Bay, it would go a long way toward helping their playoff chances.

Atlanta Falcons

Atlanta looks like they are getting back on track, but beating Indianapolis is hardly something to be excited about.

A win this week would be huge, though. They host division rival New Orleans—who just beat division rival Tampa Bay—in a game that could put the Falcons back in the driver's seat of a division they owned last year.

Matt Ryan and the Falcons cannot afford to lose a game at home in the division for the rest of the season.

A win here would go a long way toward making their playoff dreams a reality.

New England Patriots

New England is on a two-game skid and will damned before they drop three straight.

Unfortunately, this week's matchup is against the division rival New York Jets, who finally looked like the Jets of old last week in their first road win of the season at Buffalo.

Tom Brady and Bill Belichick need to stop this bleeding fast.

A win in New York will reassert them at the top of the division and will also send a message through the conference.

Not only do they need to get their defense together, but they need to find some rhythm on offense as well.
