The Vikings have a nice stretch of games following their Week 5 bye: the Chiefs (1-4), Lions (0-5), Bears (2-3) and Raiders (2-3).

The biggest riser of the week are the Philadelphia Eagles, jumping seven spots from #22 to #15. The biggest fall of the week belongs to the St. Louis Rams, dropping six spots from #11 to #17. 

The Vikes host the Chiefs this Sunday at TCF Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.
