Terry Allen leads the Redskins against undefeated Jacksonville.

It's Week 5 in the National Football League and several divisional battles dominate the storyline. Defending Super Bowl champion Green Bay heads to Detroit for an NFC Central showdown, Kansas City hosts Seattle in an AFC West battle, and in Charlotte on Monday night, the Panthers host NFC West rival San Francisco one season after sweeping the five-time world champions. "We got punched in the mouth by Carolina," says 49ers quarterback Steve Young of last season. "Now we're going to see what we have to counter that."

Three of the league's four undefeated teams are also in action. Denver (4-0) visits Atlanta, where former Broncos coach Dan Reeves is trying to rebuild the Falcons; Jacksonville (3-0) heads to Jack Kent Cooke Stadium for a game against Terry Allen and the Redskins; Tampa Bay (4-0) hosts Arizona as the surprising Buccaneers look to win their first five games for only the second time in team history. New England (4-0), the othe unscathed, has the week off.
