Week six saw some exciting offenses continue to take off. We’re starting to see who has the best offense in the league thus far.
Meanwhile, other teams’ offenses are struggling to make some magic happen on the field, and some NFL teams are still slowly trying to find their offensive identity, even with the clock ticking faster in this ever-changing 2024 season.
Here are the grades for all 32 NFL teams’ offenses after week six.
Which teams had the best offense in the entire NFL after week six?
Arizona Cardinals: D
The Cardinals’ offense had a brutal afternoon as the Green Bay Packers smacked them on the road 13-34. Kyler Murray threw a touchdown against no interceptions but lost a fumble, the Cardinals rushing attack was held to 89 rushing yards all game, Trey McBride caught eight receptions for 96 yards, Michael Wilson caught two receptions for 21 yards and scored a touchdown, and Marvin Harrison Jr. didn’t have a single catch-all game, but left the game with a concussion. A rough afternoon for the Redbirds despite winning against the San Francisco 49ers in week five. They have a lot to improve as they prepare for action in week seven.
Atlanta Falcons: A-
The Falcons’ offense had a very nice afternoon in Charlotte, as they defeated the Carolina Panthers 38-20. Kirk Cousins threw a touchdown against no interceptions. Tyler Allgeier rushed for 105 yards on 18 carries and scored a touchdown, Bijan Robinson rushed for 95 yards on 15 carries and scored two rushing touchdowns, and Drake London caught six receptions for 74 yards and scored a touchdown. The Falcons’ offense performed great on the road as they tried to maintain control of the NFC South crown.
Baltimore Ravens: A-
The Ravens’ offense had a very nice game as they defeated the Washington Commanders 30-23. Lamar Jackson threw a touchdown against an interception, Derrick Henry rushed for 132 yards on 23 carries and scored two rushing touchdowns, Zay Flowers caught nine receptions for 132 yards, and Mark Andrews caught three receptions for 66 yards and scored a touchdown. The Ravens’ offense had a very nice afternoon as they improved to a 4-2 record and maintained control of the AFC North.
Buffalo Bills: A-
The Bills’ offense played a great game as they won 23-20 against the New York Jets in a neck-and-neck battle on Monday Night Football. Josh Allen threw two touchdowns against no interceptions and scored a rushing touchdown, Ray Davis rushed for 97 yards on 20 carries and caught three receptions for 55 yards, Curtis Samuel caught three receptions for 44 yards, Dawson Knox caught a reception for 12 yards and scored a touchdown, and Mack Hollins caught a reception for eight yards and scored a touchdown. A great and intense night for the Bills’ offense as they survived the thriller and lived to tell the tail.
Carolina Panthers: C-
The Panthers’ offense tried to put up a fight against the Atlanta Falcons but came up short in their painful 20-38 loss at home. Andy Dalton threw two touchdowns against two interceptions, Chubba Hubbard rushed for 92 yards on 18 carries, Dionte Johnson caught six receptions for 74 yards and scored a touchdown, and Xavier Legette caught three receptions for 23 yards and scored a touchdown. The Panthers’ offense started okay but faltered in the second half, as they were denied access to the end zone. The Panthers’ offense has to regroup and get prepared for their week seven NFL matchup on the road against the Washington Commanders.
Chicago Bears: A-
The Bears’ offense had a great Sunday abroad in London as they defeated the Jacksonville Jaguars 35-16. Caleb Williams threw four touchdowns against no interceptions, D’Andre Swift rushed for 91 yards on 17 carries and scored a touchdown, Keenan Allen caught five receptions for 41 yards and scored two touchdowns, and Cole Kmet caught five receptions for 70 yards and scored two touchdowns. The Bears’ offense has a bright spot, with D’Andre Swift and Caleb Williams finding their groove for the Windy City despite the team’s obvious, continuing offensive line woes.
Cincinnati Bengals: C-
The Bengals’ offense had a somewhat quiet night at the Meadowlands, even though they secured the 17-7 win over the New York Giants. Joe Burrow threw no touchdowns or interceptions yet scored a rushing touchdown, Chase Brown rushed for 53 yards on 10 carries and scored the game-winning touchdown for the Bengals in the fourth quarter, Tee Higgins caught seven receptions for 77 yards, and Ja’Marr Chase caught five receptions for 72 yards. Despite the lackluster offensive performance, the Bengals got the job done, thanks to the rushing attack, which helped their team earn their second win of the 2024 season.
Cleveland Browns: D
The Browns’ offense struggled in their 16-20 road loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Deshaun Watson didn’t throw a touchdown or interception but was sacked five times, Pierre Strong Jr. rushed for 43 yards on eight carries, and Amari Cooper caught four receptions for 42 yards. A rough afternoon for the Browns’ offense, as kicker Dustin Hopkins made three out of four field goals while Rodney McLeod Jr. scored a 50-yard touchdown off of a blocked kick by Myles Garrett.
Dallas Cowboys: F
The Cowboys’ offense was beyond disastrous to watch, as they were humiliated at home by the Detroit Lions in their 9-47 loss on no less than owner Jerry Jones’ birthday. Dak Prescott threw two interceptions against no touchdowns, the Cowboys’ rushing attack was held to 53 yards on the ground all game, and CeeDee Lamb caught seven receptions for 89 yards. A brutal afternoon, the Cowboys’ offense would love to forget about, as they luckily enter a bye week for week seven, so they can regroup for their next NFL game in week eight.
Denver Broncos: D+
The Broncos’ offense was shut out for the first three quarters of their week six loss to the Los Angeles Chargers until the fourth quarter, when they put up 16 points in their failed comeback attempt, resulting in a 16-23 loss at home. Bo Nix threw two touchdowns against an interception. Javonte Williams rushed for 23 yards on six carries, Troy Franklin caught two receptions for 31 yards, Courtland Sutton caught four receptions for 53 yards and scored a touchdown, and Devaughn Vele caught four receptions for 78 yards. The Broncos need to get focused for their week seven road trip to the Big Easy as they square off against the New Orleans Saints in a Thursday night showdown.
Detroit Lions: A
The Lions’ offense was electric all game, as they dismantled the Dallas Cowboys 47-9. Jared Goff threw three touchdowns against no interceptions, David Montgomery rushed for 80 yards on 12 carries and scored two rushing touchdowns, Jameson Williams caught three receptions for 76 yards and scored a touchdown, Sam LaPorta caught a reception for 52 yards and scored a touchdown, and Amon-Ra St. Brown caught four receptions for 37 yards and scored a touchdown. The Lions’ offense looked incredible as they prepared for their first divisional matchup of the NFL season on the road against the Minnesota Vikings in week seven.
Green Bay Packers: A-
The Packers’ offense looked sharp in their 34-13 victory at home against the Arizona Cardinals. Jordan Love threw four touchdowns against an interception, Josh Jacobs rushed for 62 yards on 18 carries, Christian Watson caught three receptions for 68 yards and scored a touchdown, Romeo Doubs caught three receptions for 49 yards and scored two touchdowns, and Jayden Reed caught six receptions for 28 yards and scored a touchdown. A strong performance by the Packers’ offense, who continue to make noise on why they want to have full control of the NFC North.
Houston Texans: A-
The Texans’ offense had a very nice afternoon in their 41-21 victory over the New England Patriots. C.J. Stroud threw three touchdowns against an interception, Joe Mixon returned to action with 102 rushing yards on 13 carries, scored a touchdown, caught two receptions for 30 yards and scored a touchdown, Dameon Pierce rushed for 76 yards on eight carries and scored a touchdown, Stefon Diggs caught six receptions for 77 yards and scored a touchdown, and Tank Dell caught seven receptions for 57 yards and scored a touchdown. A great afternoon for the Texans’ offense, as they continued to look fierce against opposing NFL defenses.
Indianapolis Colts: B+
No Anthony Richardson or Jonathan Taylor, no problem, as the Colts’ offense was able to stave off the Tennessee Titans in their 20-17 win. Joe Flacco threw two touchdowns against an interception, Tyler Goodson rushed for 51 yards on eight carries, Josh Downs caught seven receptions for 66 yards and scored a touchdown, and Michael Pittman Jr. caught three receptions for 35 yards and scored a touchdown despite dealing with a back injury. Pittman Jr. showed his toughness all game, while Flacco continued to show his resilience as he helped carry the Colts to victory on the road.
Jacksonville Jaguars: D
The Jaguars’ offense had a rough Sunday in London, as they were trounced by the Chicago Bears 16-35. Trevor Lawrence threw two touchdowns against one interception, Mac Jones threw a pass but was sacked in the loss, the Jaguars’ rushing attack was held to a combined 68 yards on the ground, Evan Engram had a nice game as he caught 10 receptions for 102 yards, and Gabe Davis caught five receptions for 45 yards and scored two touchdowns. Despite the good performances from Davis and Engram, Lawrence’s play and the run game struggled. The Jaguars’ offense needs to turn things around quickly this NFL season.
Kansas City Chiefs: Bye Week
Despite the struggles and injuries at wide receiver and injuries at running back, as long as Patrick Mahomes is under center, the Chiefs offense will continue to dominate no matter who else Patrick Mahomes throws or hands off the ball to.
Las Vegas Raiders: D
The Raiders’ offense barely could get things going in their 13-32 loss at home to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Aidan O’Connell threw a touchdown against an interception, Alexander Mattison rushed for 33 yards on 14 carries and scored a touchdown, Brock Bowers caught nine receptions for 71 yards, and Kristian Wilkerson caught two receptions for 18 yards and scored a touchdown. The Raiders’ offense did have some good moments, but it wasn’t enough, as the Steelers’ defense made things very tough for the majority of their NFL game.
Los Angeles Chargers: C+
The Chargers’ offense had a fair afternoon in their 23-16 win on the road against the Denver Broncos. Justin Herbert threw a touchdown against no interceptions, J.K. Dobbins rushed for 96 yards on 25 carries and scored a touchdown, Kimani Vidal rushed for 11 yards on four receptions, caught two receptions for 40 yards, and scored a touchdown, and Simi Fehoko caught two receptions for 44 yards. Despite a great rebound performance from Dobbins, the Chargers’ passing attack was pretty lackluster in the victory. Hopefully, the passing attack rebounds in time for the team’s week seven matchup on the road against the Arizona Cardinals.
Los Angeles Rams: Bye Week
The Rams’ offense has had some tough breaks so far this season. However, they did get some good news, as Cooper Kupp had a good workout, per Ian Rapaport, which hopefully is a sign that Kupp is slowly getting ready to return to action soon.
Miami Dolphins: Bye Week
The Dolphins’ offense has had a brutal season so far, but Tyler Huntley needs to improve as the Dolphins get set for their week seven matchup on the road against the Indianapolis Colts.
Minnesota Vikings: Bye Week
The Vikings’ offense has been incredible to watch so far this season. However, Sam Darnold, Justin Jefferson, and Aaron Jones will be tested when they welcome the Detroit Lions to town for a week seven divisional showdown.
New England Patriots: C-
Despite the Patriots’ offense losing a very tough 21-41 battle against the Houston Texans, Drake Maye showed some promise in the game. Maye threw three touchdowns against two interceptions, the Patriots rushing attack was held to a combined 82 yards all game, DeMario Douglas caught six receptions for 92 yards and scored a touchdown, Kayshoun Boutte caught three receptions for 59 yards and scored a touchdown, and Hunter Henry caught three receptions for 41 yards and scored a touchdown. Maye showed great promise for the Patriots moving forward, as he got the passing attack to play very well against a very tough Texans defense.
New Orleans Saints: C-
The Saints’ offense had a great second quarter, but they couldn’t get anything moving in the first quarter and the second half of their week, which was a 27-51 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Spencer Rattler threw a touchdown against two interceptions, Alvin Kamara rushed for 40 yards on 13 carries and scored a touchdown, Bub Means caught five receptions for 45 yards and scored a touchdown, and Rashid Shaheed scored a touchdown on a 54-yard punt return. Rattler showed some promise, but the Saints offense couldn’t get a single point on the board in the second half. Head coach Dennis Allen’s seat is certainly getting warmer.
New York Giants: D
The Giants’ offense had a rough Sunday night in prime time as they were defeated by the Cincinnati Bengals 7-17 at home. Daniel Jones threw an interception against no touchdowns, Tyrone Tracy Jr. rushed for 50 yards on 17 carries and scored the team’s only touchdown of the night, and Darius Slayton caught six receptions for 57 yards. A brutal night for the Giants’ offense as they’re hurting without Malik Nabers and Devin Singletary, who are recovering from a concussion and groin injury, respectively. On top of that, the Giants failed to convert on two fourth downs, which added to their painful performance in front of the entire viewership on Sunday Night Football.
New York Jets: B-
Despite losing a very tough and thrilling 20-23 battle against the Buffalo Bills, the Jets’ offense put up a solid fight until the end. Aaron Rodgers threw two touchdowns against a costly interception in the final minutes of the game, Breece Hall rushed for 113 yards on 18 carries, Allen Lazard caught six receptions for 114 yards and scored a touchdown, and Garrett Wilson caught eight receptions for 107 yards and scored a touchdown. There were moments throughout the game when the Jets’ offense could’ve scored or had first downs, but they missed those opportunities during their recent NFL contest. Either way, the Jets fought very hard despite the very razor-thin loss.
Philadelphia Eagles: B+
The Eagles’ offense returned to action from their bye week and earned a nice 20-16 win over the Cleveland Browns. Jalen Hurts threw two touchdowns against no interceptions but was sacked once, Saquon Barkley rushed for 47 yards on 18 carries, A.J. Brown caught six receptions for 116 yards and scored a touchdown, and DeVonta Smith caught three receptions for 64 yards and scored a touchdown. A great afternoon for both Smith and Brown, who returned to action after their respective injuries, as the Eagles earned a well-needed victory to get them back in the win column in the competitive NFC East.
Pittsburgh Steelers: B
The Steelers’ offense had a good afternoon despite the passing attack, which had a somewhat quiet afternoon in their 32-13 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. Justin Fields threw no touchdowns or interceptions yet scored two rushing touchdowns, Najee Harris rushed for 106 yards and scored a rushing touchdown, and George Pickens caught three receptions for 53 yards. The Steelers’ offense played tough and gritty as the rushing attack looked sharp and could be a serious threat against opposing NFL defenses.
San Francisco 49ers: B+
The 49ers’ offense woke up and had a very nice Thursday night against the Seattle Seahawks in their 36-24 win. Brock Purdy threw three touchdowns against no interceptions, Jordan Mason rushed for 73 yards on nine carries but left the game with a sprained AC joint, Isaac Guerendo rushed for 99 yards on 10 carries, Kyle Juszczyk rushed for six yards on a carry and scored a touchdown, Deebo Samuel caught three receptions for 102 yards and scored a touchdown, and George Kittle caught five receptions for 58 yards and scored two touchdowns. The 49ers’ offense looked electric, despite losing Mason to a sprained AC joint, as they look to get back on track and maintain control of the NFC West.
Seattle Seahawks: C-
The Seahawks’ offense started slow but ended up playing an okay game, as they lost to the San Francisco 49ers 24-36. Geno Smith threw a touchdown against two interceptions, Kenneth Walker III rushed for 32 yards on 14 carries and scored a rushing touchdown, Tyler Lockett caught four receptions for 65 yards and scored a touchdown, and Laviska Shenault Jr. scored a touchdown on a 97-yard kick return, in the third quarter of the game. The Seahawks tried to put up a fight against their NFC West rivals despite a lackluster effort from the rushing attack due to a fierce 49ers’ defense. The Seahawks’ offense needs to rebound and bounce back from this loss.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers: B+
The Bucs’ offense had a strong day in their 51-27 victory over the New Orleans Saints. Baker Mayfield threw four touchdowns against three interceptions. Sean Tucker emerged out of nowhere and rushed for 136 yards on 14 carries, scored a rushing touchdown, caught three receptions for 56 yards, and scored a receiving touchdown. Bucky Irving rushed for 81 yards on 14 carries and scored a rushing touchdown, Chris Godwin caught 11 receptions for 125 yards and scored two touchdowns, and Cade Otton caught two receptions for 15 yards and scored a touchdown. A great showing from the Bucs’ offense, as they were relentless against their NFC South rivals.
Tennessee Titans: D+
The Titans’ offense played an average game and could’ve won, but ended up losing 17-20 against the Indianapolis Colts during their recent clash in the NFL. Will Levis struggled, as he threw a touchdown against an interception, Tony Pollard rushed for 93 yards on 17 carries and scored a rushing touchdown, DeAndre Hopkins caught four receptions for 54 yards, and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine caught a reception for nine yards and scored a touchdown. As Pollard had a very nice game, Levis struggled along with the Titans’ passing attack. If Levis continues to struggle, it may be time for head coach Brian Callahan to make a change at quarterback.
Washington Commanders: B-
The Commanders’ offense had a decent afternoon despite getting dropped by the Baltimore Ravens 23-30. Jayden Daniels threw two touchdowns against no interceptions, the Commanders’ rushing attack was held to a combined 52 yards on the ground, Zach Ertz caught four receptions for 68 yards, and Terry McLaurin caught six receptions from 53 yards and scored two touchdowns. Daniels and McLaurin had great performances despite their efforts not being enough to slow down the Ravens. The Commanders return home for week seven as they get prepared to host the Carolina Panthers.
