Let's take a look at the teams that won't be in action this week, along with the remaining schedule for Week 6.

The Kansas City Chiefs (5-0), Minnesota Vikings (5-0), Los Angeles Rams (1-4) and Miami Dolphins (2-3) are the four teams that have a bye in Week 6.

The Chiefs and Vikings have gotten off to excellent starts and have remained unbeaten heading into their Week 6 byes. Meanwhile, the Rams have had a disastrous campaign thus far with just one win, and they will need to turn their fortunes around to qualify for the playoffs.

The Dolphins, on the other hand, have managed just two wins, including their Week 5 victory against the New England Patriots.
