It's Week 5 of the NFL season and there are only two undefeated teams left - the Rams and the Chiefs.

The Chiefs will play in adverse conditions this Sunday as they take on the Jaguars at home.

Take a look at what other games will be affected by weather this week:

It will be a rainy day in Orchard Park this Sunday as the Bills take on the Titans.

Showers may occur at times, but the rain will be on the lighter side. No washout is expected, but the field will be slippery.

It will be a warm day for early October with temperatures about 10 degrees Fahrenheit above normal.

Temperatures will be in the lower to middle 60s most of the day.

Falcons at Steelers - Sunday, 1 p.m. EDT

An unseasonably warm day is expected in Pittsburgh as the Steelers host the Falcons.

It will be a warm and muggy morning with temperatures in the 70s and a decent amount of sunshine.

By kickoff, it will be near 80 F with temperatures climbing a few degrees more during the game. The sunshine and humidity will bring the AccuWeather RealFeel;reg close to 90 F at times.

A stray shower cannot be ruled out, especially during the second half.

Ravens at Browns - Sunday, 1 p.m. EDT

The Browns will try to claim their second win of the season this week as they take on the Ravens at home.

There can be a shower or two during the game, dampening the field and creating slippery conditions at times.

It will be a warmer-than-usual day for this point of the season with temperatures in the lower 70s during the game.

Clouds will hang overhead as the threat for showers looms throughout the game. It will be fairly humid as well.

The Giants will make their way south to Charlotte this week to take on the Panthers.

It will be an unsettled day in the Queen City and a brief lightning delay is possible for the NFC East-South match up.

A warm and humid day could spark a spotty shower or thunderstorm during the afternoon.

Clouds will increase on Sunday with temperatures in the 70s during any morning tailgating and rising into the low 80s by kickoff.

With the added humidity and sunny breaks, the RealFeel;reg will hover in the low 90s.

Jaguars at Chiefs - Sunday, 1 p.m. EDT

The Jaguars will take on the Chiefs this week amid wet and stormy conditions in Kansas City.

Fans should prepare for wet weather during any morning tailgating and into the evening drive home after the game.

A lightning delay cannot be ruled out as thunderstorms are expected to roll through the area.

Temperatures will move very little throughout the day on Sunday, starting out in the mid-60s before kickoff and rising into the lower 70s during the afternoon.

Fans should dress appropriately with rain gear and ponchos. The field may be slippery due to the wet weather, increasing the chance for fumbles.
