NFL Week Six Takaways

An NFL Weekend Pack Full Of Blowouts One Of The Most Lob Sided Weekends Between Winners And Losers I’ve Witnessed In One Week In Some. 

Cardinals Vs Packers

The  Arizona Cardinals Remain The Wildest Card In Football One Week After Defeating Division Foe 49ers The Cardinals and Showing Signs Of Growth Again, The Cards Flipped And The Cardinals Found Themselves on The End Of a Blowout 34-13 To The Packers. This Week Cardinals’s Head Coach Jonathan Gannon Remarked Of his Team  “You Can’t Stay The Same” Gannon Said, “It’s Either Your Getting Better Or You’re Getting Worse… Did They Improve These Last Few Days?” The Cardinals However Stay The Same An Offense To Contend With One Week An Offense To question And Ponder On Another. The Packers Had No Issue With Offense As Jordan Love Completed A Handful Of Chuck Shots As He Racked Up Four Touchdowns On His Way To 22/32 For 258 Passing Yards, and A Passer Rating 119.5. After A Missed Opportunity To Start The Game The Packer Run Of 24 Points Answered In the First Half. Of Course, The Arm Of Jordan Love Gives and Takes Away his Late 2nd Quarter Interception helped Arizona Cut The Lead To Just Two Scores Before The Half But Green Bay Holds On To Win 34-13. The Cardinals However Suffered Their Ball security TROUBLES WITH Three Fumbles in the Game. Kyler Murray is 22/32 For 214 Passing Yards, One Touchdown, 97.7 passer Rating. Arizona Got Little From Their Rushing Attack Making Their One Dimensional Offense More One Dimensional The Packers Have yet To Beat A Team Of Note But Face A Team like The Texans Next week. 

Dallas Cowboys Vs Detroit Lions 

Speaking Of One Dimensional, The Cowboys Have Learned The Hard Way About Building A Roster Too Top Heavy  And Not Fleshing Out The Depth Of Their Team. Reports Claim That The Offense Of Dallas Figures To Save Ezekiel Elliott For A Later Date and The Media Has Made Much Of Dallas Not signing Another Back Like Derrick Henry Instead Allowing The Offense To Rely On The 60 Million Dollar Arm Of Dak Prescott. Derrick Couldn’t Help The Lions In This Matter As Detroit Pummels The Cowboys 47-9. The Cowboys Wouldn’t Get Too Many Chances To Run The Ball As the Offense Suffers Five Turnovers Including Three Interceptions, Two By Dak and One Interception That Lit Up Social Media As Dak Stared into The Sun while hopelessly Trying To Make A Play Downfield To His Receiver. The Lions' Offense Had No Trouble Running The Ball As Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery Combine For 24 Carries And 143 Yards On The Ground 5.9 Yards Per Rush. Montgomery Would Score Two Touchdowns And Break Multiple Tackle the game. Montgomery Looks Like The Only Challenge To Derrick Henry For The Space As The Best Back In Football. 

The Loud Thud Of The Cowboys' Crash Landing Down To Earth Nearly Overshadowed The Brilliant Game played And Called By Jared Goff and Ben Johnson. Goff Wrapped Up His After Noon 18/25 For 315, Highlight By B.I.G. Touchdown Catches By Tight End Sam

Laporta and Big 42-Yard Catch By Wide Receiver Tim Patrick. The Lions Averaged Better Than 16 Yards per Completion. Jameson Williams led the Team With Three Catches For 76 Receiving Yards And  One Touchdown. The Lions Got Creative Late Calling A Lateral Play For Right Tackle Penei Sewell Who Scores But Has The Tackle Negated Due To An Ineligible Man Down Field.  CeeDee Lamb 7 Catches For 89 Receiving Yards. This Game brought Some Sad News For Lions Despite a Massive Haul Of Sacks and Pressures, The Defensive Line Lost Star Pass Rusher Aidan Hutchison To A Broken Leg(Tibia Specifically) and Will Miss The Remainder Of The Season. The Lions Defense Got A Strong Showing From Interior Pass Rusher Alim McNeil But They’ll Need Tosift The Market For another True Outside Threat Pass Rush Threat To Keep A Budding Defense Moving Strong.The Cowboys Can Still Bounce back From This Lost, The Season doesn’t End In Week 6 And The Division Title Remains in Reach. 

Commanders Vs Ravens. Heavyweight Showdown In The DMV as The Surprise Of The Season The Washington Commanders Took On The Kings Of Interstate 495. The Three-Headed Monster Of The Ravens Lamar Jackson, Derrick Henry, and Zay Flower prove Too Much For Jayden Daniels As The Raven Hold Off The Commanders Late Despite Some Late Heroics. Playing From Behind Against A Vaunted Ravens Rushing Team Seems Vaunting Proportion Even With The Ravens Propensity For Collapses. The Ravens Offense Had Too Much Going Lamar Jackson had 323 Passing Yards, 12.4 Per Attempt(Ridiculously Efficient), 15.4 Per Completion One Touchdown, And One Interception. Lamar’s First Drive Of The Game Interception Opened The Door For The Commanders To Hold A Brief Field Goal Lead in The First Quarter. The Ravens Would Match The Commander 3-3 Before Taking Off To A 17-10 Lead Before The Half. The Commanders Missed An Opportunity To Cut Into The Lead With A Missed Field Goal Before the Half. The Commanders Secured A Fourth Quarter, Fourth Down Conversion Touchdown To Terry McLaurin But Their Efforts Would Fall Short Under The Power Of Derrick Henry and The Ravens Who Win This One 30-23. The Commanders needed One More Stop Late But The Ravens Always Found A Play To Keep The Downs And The Clock Moving. How The Commanders Respond To This  Loss Could Determine Their Season. Many Promising Teams have Spun-Off The Rails Following A Elevated Loss Like The Ones That The Commanders Suffered. Jayden Daniels 24/35 269 7.7 Two Touchdown 110.3 Passer Rating. Without Brian Robinson, The Offense Leaned In Heavily On Daniels And Became One Dimensional Averaging Just 2.9 Yards Per Rush. Rookie Mike Sainistril With One Pick, Dante Fowler With Two Sacks. Derrick Henry, has zero Negative Runs, Three Explosive Runs Of 10 Or More Yards, 24 Carries For 132 Rushing Yards, and +32 Over Expected. The Ravens Always Give Teams Reasons To Believe They Always Inspire Their Fan base  In Week 6 and Beyond But The Big Games Don’t Take Place In The Fall. But when The Winter Chill Welcomes These Football Fields We’ll See How well Henry and Jackson Hold  Up In 22 Or 21 Whenever The Playoffs And Super Bowl Come Around.  

Eagles Vs Brown

The Football World Understands That No Matter How Much The Belief That Jameis Winston Can Somehow Redeem The Browns Season Floats Around, We Know Thats Unlikely To Happen. The Browns Have Anchored Their Ship To Deshaun Watson without a Feasible Escape Route Until 2027 But Through Cap Miracle( Or Cap Suicide) The Browns Can Deepen Their Position As Footballs Chief Laughing Stock By Ousting Watson Sooner. Reason, Seemingly every Quarterback In Football In the once-moot-maligned Daniel Jones has turned his Poor Play Around. Rookie Quarterbacks Bo Nix and Caleb Williams Have Come Around, and Anyone Else, Bryce Young The Sideline For The Rest Of the Season. Only Watson Now Stands As A Monolith And Albatross Of Football Scrutiny And Hubris. Watson Currently  Owns The Worst QBR in Football. The Browns Failed To Revamp The Offense With Joe Brady As The Offensive Coordinator  And The Team Plans To Move On From Number One Received Amari Cooper But With Coop, The Browns Never Fitted him with a True No.2 Receiver And By Now I Think Everyone’s Ready To Close The Book On Jerry Jeudy. 

The Eagles Coming In Off Of A Bye And With The Return Of AJ brown Hold Back The Browns and Win Week 6 20-16. Neither Of These Offense Looked Particularly Robust AJ Brown Got Into The End Zone In His Return. Brown Hauled In A 22-yard Catch To Score The game first And Bring a Change Of Scenery From The Roc  Fight That  Broke Out In The First Half. Deshaun Watson Had His Best Half Of Football For The Browns In His Entire Tenure. Watson was 16/23, 168 Passing Yards, 11/12 for 122 yards in the second half,  90.5 Passer Rating, and Took Five Sacks But The Browns Still Left Without An Offensive Touchdown. I Don’t Think Watson gets Benched just Yet As The Brown Prepare For Nick Chubb To Return But This offense Lacks Variety. In The Second Half Of This Game Somehow Cleveland’s  Offense Used Up 8:01 Worth Of Game Time Just To Chew Up 39 Yards And Settle For A Field Goal. Cleveland’s Offense Lacks Explosive Plays The Browns Generate Just One Pass Over 20 Air Yards In The Game. 

AJ Brown Finished With 6 catches 106 Receiving Yards, and One Touchdown. Devonta Smith Caught 3 Passes, 64, and One Touchdown. For The Eagles they Get Two Jalen Hurts, The One Without Brown and The One With Brown, Let’s Say He’s Better With Brown 16/25 For 264 Passing Yards Two Touchdowns 10.6 Yards Per Attempt, And A Passer Rating of 126.1. The Browns' Defense Played Well Enough To Keep The Game Close With Both Team Nursing Mishap Probe Superstar Quarterback. 

Falcons Vs Panther 

Unbeknownst to anyone Outside Of Their Respective Fan Bases The Falcons And The Panthers Played A Game On Sunday With Atlanta Staying Ahead Of Tampa In The Division and Taking Home The Win Over Carolina 38-20. No One On Social spoke Much Of This Game Outside Of One Or Two Mentions and The Chief Point Of Those Mentions  Start With The Return of Bryce Young. After Another Lob Sides Loss The Panthers Can’t Save This Season, Fans And Analyst Alike Have Seen Enough Of Andy Dalton And Bryce Young Needs To Reclaim That Spot As The Starter At Least For A Stretch More This Season. The Falcons Put This Game Away Easily Kirk Cousins was 19/30 with 225 Passing Yards and, a 97.2 PASSER rating. This Game Had All The Usual Trappings Of An “False Indicating” Atlanta Offensive Contending Game. Kyle Pitts The Unicorn Made One Of Those Rare Sighting Of Him striding Down the Field For A Big Play. Pitts Caught Three Passes For 70 Yards. Bijan Robinson has 15 Carries 105 Rushing Yards and Two Touchdown, 6.3 a carry. Tyler Allgeier Trump Bijan With 18 Carries For 105 Rushing Yards. All  Performances No One Can Promise These Stats Will Carry Over. If The Panthers Have One Player To Hang Their Heads On This Season Chubba Hubbard remains That Guy, Four Straight Games Over 90 Yards This Time, 18 Carries For 92 Yards On The Ground. Diontae Johnson Caught 6 Passes For 78 Receiving Yards For One Touchdown. If The Falcons Offense Can Play To This Level They’d Have The Best Unit In Football Even Rivaling The Lions. 

Bears Vs. Jaguars

After A Long Tortuous Start To The 2034 Season, The Jacksonville Jaguars Pick Up Their First Win In Week Five Against. Trevor Lawrence Looked Like The Guy Everyone Would’ve Mortgage Their House On in 2021 And The Offense Looked Almost Unrecognizably Good One Week Defined A Season The Jags had A Day But Now The Week Turns and The Inspired Jags Offense Has To Play The Bears’s Defense Currently Giving Opponents The Least Amount Of Love And EpA heading Into Week 6 And The Jags Should Still Have The Memory Of Their Thrashing At The Hands Of The Bills Still fresh In Memory. This Jags Game Features Two Of The Most Hyped Quarterback Prospects In Recent Football Zeitgeist Facing  Off. Trevor Lawrence Remains An Enigma for the most part But He’s Coming Off Of His Best Game Of The Season. Caleb Williams Didn’t Start The Season Living Up To The Hype But He’s Coming Off His Best Games And Facing One Of The worst defenses In Football. A lot Of Caleb 300 Yard Passing Performance Came After The Catch He Only Completed Two Passes Over 10 Air Yards So The Jaguars Tackling Efficiency Could Wind Up Tested. 

This Game Takes In London The Jaguars Home Away From Home And The Most Favorable Venue For NFLExpansion.  

While The Bears Offense Got Out Of The Gate Slow The Jags Offense Had No Trouble Out Of The Gate. Trevor Lawrence Started The Game on 5/5, Over 10 Yards Per Attempt, and The Jags Suffered Some Penalties But The Offense Drove Down To the Bears' End Zone Facing Third Down Just Twice. 

Jags’ Wide Receiver Gabe Davis Would Drop A Touchdown In The End Zone And The Jags Would Settle For A Field Goal. The Jags Passing Attack Showed Growth Early Before The Drop. The Jags Spent A Lot Of Money To Pull Davis From The Bills And He’s Played As Inconsistently As If He Still Played In Upper State New York. Davis Would Redeem

himself twice With A touchdown In The Third Quarter That Helped The Jags' Offense Some Life Or At Least Not Allow This Game To Spin Off The Rails and Touchdown In The Fourth With The Game nearly Out Of Hand Down Three Scores. 

The Jaguars Secure Their First First-Quarter Lead Of The Season.  That Would Evaporate Quickly Under The Chill Of London. Out Of The Second Quarter, Caleb Williams would Lead The Bears On A 7 Play 81 81-yard drive Capped Off by A 31 31-yard touchdown Pass To Cole Kmet Who Broke Away A Tackler and Scurried Away Into The End Zone. 

The Jags Next Two Drives Of The Half Would Result In Two 3 Outs, 6 Plays, And 14 Yards Total. Caleb Williams Would Throw an Interceptions In Between Time But The Offense Would Bounce Back  10 Plays Again WilliamsWould Link up with Kmet For A Two Yard Touchdown. Williams 19 Yard Scramble Would Set Up The Score As The Bears Take A Two Score Lead Into The Second Half One Of Two Big  Scrambles By Williams Who Also Scrambled For 23 Yards To Start The Drive. The And Williams Not Stop after The Half. The Jags Still On Three Points By The Time Williams Notched His Third Touchdown On The Bears First Drive Of The Third Quarter. 

The Jags Offense Didn’t Look Bad just Miscues That Negated Potential Big Plays. In His Return Tight End Evan Engram Caught a Pass For 24 Yards To Start The Third However His Fumble Resulted In the Bears’s Touchdown.  The Offense Alone Didn’t Suffer From Miscues, The Defense Struggled With Penalties. The Bear Fourth Touch Down drive That Ended With Keenan Allen Catching His Second Touch Of The Game Capping OffA 10 Play 70 Yard Drive, feature Multiple Defensive Penalties on Third Down That Could’ve Gotten The Jags Off The Field. The Jags Had Too Many Men On The Field That Negated A Sack By Travon Walker and a Defensive Holding That Negated A Short Stop. The Jaguars Couldn’t Get Out of Their Way. 

This Game Got Out Of Hands For The Jaguars Heading Into The Fourth. With Jags Still Struggling To Keep Pace On The Scoreboard Trevor Lawrence Throws An Interception After The Jags Offense Moved Negative Three Yards. Chicago Not Missing A Beat Would Punch In Another Touchdown On The Ground. D’andre Swift Had A Vintage Swift Game 17 Carries For 91 Yards, A Couple ago Forced Missed Tackles along With 28 Yards Through The Air, and One Touchdown On The Ground. The Bears Lock Down Another Win 35-16. Another Efficient Game For Williams 23/29 For 226 Passing Yards Four Touchdown, and One Interception 124.4 Passer Rating. Keenan Allen 5 Catches, Two Touchdown, and 41 Yards. Cole Kmet Five For 70 Yards, Two Touchdown. Right NowChicago Looks Like A Super Bowl Contender. Offenses Like The Jags won't Test The  True Strength of This Defense On All Levels. The Pass Rush Got Three Sacks But Those Were A Product Of The Coverage More Than The Dominance Of The Edge Rushers. The Jags Got One Week To Soak In The Glory Of Their First Win Before Getting Smashed Back To Reality. Lawrence 23/35 for 234 Passing Yards. Tight End Evan Engram 10 Catches For 102 Receiving Yard. Gabe Davis Got His Two Touchdowns. If The Jags Had To Return To The States This WeekOne Would Assume Doug Pederson Might Have Had His Papers Handed To Him But By Chance, He’ll Get Another Week On The Boards. 

Niners vs Seahawks 

The Niners And Seahawks Meet With The Fate Of NFC West On The Line. Both teams Have Disappointing Losses To Bounce Back From After Week 5 And You Can Flip A Coin Which Of the Two Took The Worse “L”? The Seahawks Fell To the Giants In A Thriller After The Seahawks' Offense Couldn’t Come A Slow And Brilliant Special Teams Play By The Giants Ended The Matchup. The Cardinals Deposed The Niners In An Also Thrilling second Half Comeback. The Niners Projected To Win The Division Enter Week 6 Behind The 8 Ball On Their Control Over The Division But Still Rank 5th In Football In EPA per back. Only Two Quarterbacks Have Produced More Total EPA Than Geno Smith This Season And The 12-Year Vet Looks As Good If Not Better Than The Year He Took Over Seattle Two Years Ago when He Won  Comeback Player Of The Year. The Niners Have To Win This Game If They Hope To Not Only Return To a Super Bowl But Win The Division.  SAN Fransisco Had Trouble Stopping The Passing Attack With the Top Chardavius Ward in The Lineup, The Seahawks Had Free Reigns To Execute Their Strength But On The First pass Gave And Took Away. A Big 30 Yard catch And Run From Geno Smith To DK Metcalf Helped Seattle Cross Over Into Niners Territory. Three Plays Later On 3rd And 5 Smith Feeling Confident Would Sail A Pass Over Tyler Lockett’s Head And Into The Arms Of Niners’s Safety Malik Mustapha. Geno Smith Leads The League In Attempts And Seattle Would Get A Fair Bit Pass Happy. The Seahawks’s Second Drive Would End On Three Straight Incompletions To DK Metcalf After One first-down conversion. Geno Smith Starts His First Four Drives Of The Game, 4/9 For 53 Passing Yards.

The Niners Would Start Their First Drive At The One But The Seattle Defense Will Find Themselves Under Storm. Brock Purdy And the Niners Would Need About 12 Plays, 90 Some Spotty Scrambling To Get The Niners Out Of The Depths Of Their End Zone, And Into Seattle’s Before Settling For A Field Goal. Niners Running back Jordan Mason Had A big 38-yard run.  The Niners’s next Scoring Drive Wouldn’t Need As Many Plays and would Result In A Touchdown, Brock Purdy Would Hit Deebo Samuel on A Crossing Route. One Seattle Defender Missed Tackle Later, One failed linebacker Chasedown Later, And Deebo Would Break Off On A 76 Yard Touchdown, 54 Yards After The Catch, 43 Yards Over Expected. Seattle's Defense Would Prevent This Game From Spinning Way Off The Rails Holding The 49ers To Three Field Goals Despite The Niners Offense Threatening To Elevate The Score On Multiple Occasion. Seattle Special Teams Fumbled In Their Territory But The Niners Only Yield a Field Goal. The Seahawks wouldn’t Put Together Their First Scoring Drive until Late In The 2nd Quarter When DK Metcalf Couldn’t Bring In A Ball at the Back Of The End Zone and After 11 plays Seattle Would Settle For A Field Goal. Coming Out Of The Half George Kittle Would Demonstrate To DK how To Toe Tap A Touch In The End zone. Out Of The Half, The Niners Would Take A 20 Point Lead, After Driving 70 Yards In 9 Plays And Purdy Connects With George Kittle On a Ten Yard Route. Seattle’s Defense To Its Credit Couldn’t Stop Purdy and Kittle On That Drive, The Pro Toght End Collected 39 Of 49 Yards That Drive After 29 Yard Catch to Help Set Up The Touchdown. With Time A Looming Factor The Seahawks needed A Scoring Punch And got It From The Kick Return Game. Laviska Shenault Took a Kick 97 Yards To The House. The Score Would Cut Into Seattle’s Lead Making the Double Digit Difference A Little Less Intimidating At 23-10.  Geno Smith And Seattle Would Cut Into The Lead Once More With a Goal Line Rushing Touchdown By Kenneth Walker, Chiseling The 23-3 Lead At The Start Of The Third To 23-17 To The Start Of Fourth. Seattle Would Get A Handful of Opportunities To Overtake San Francisco But A Fourth Interception Which The Niner Turned Into another Touchdown and Loads Of Offensively Penalties, One Illegal Shift, that Striped Seattle Of A Touchdown Late Fourth. Geno Smith Played Adequate Enough For Seattle To Win But Three Turnovers and Penalties Not To Mention Some Defensive Lapses and Some Crushing Pass Protection Woes cost Seattle. Seattle Could Not Stop The Run To Save Their Life and For Mike McDonald A Defensive Coach this Performance Shine A Dubious Light On Him. Run Fits Win Championship and Seattle Did NotFit The Run. With one Last Chance, Down Just Five Points 29-24 With A Chance To Force The  Niners To Punt Seattle Gave Up A 76 Yard run To the Niners' Backup, Running Back Isaac Guerendo Taking Snaps In Place Of An Injured Jordan Mason. The Niners Nearly Quadrupled Seattle In Rushing At That Point 223-52 Before Kyle Juszchyk Checks Into The End Zone To Put The Win In The Suitcase for The Trip. The Niners Would Finish With 228 Rushing Yards. The Seahawks Averaged Just 2.6 Yards Per Rush. The Niners Generated 7.9 yards of play Against A Solid But waning Seahawk Defense. Geno Smith Played a Solid Game With 52 Attempts, Nearly 60 Drop Back And He’s Become Seattle’s Offense Offense A Few Miscues JustLike Against The Lions Cost The Seahawks A Better Offensive Outcome To This Game. Smith Finished 30/52 For 312 Passing Yards, One Touchdown, And Two Picks and A lot Of Smiths Yards came After The Catch. He averaged just 4.8 Air Per Attempt and 0.8 Air Yards To The Sticks But Smith Demonstrated Good, Advanced Feel In The Pocket Averaging More than 3 Seconds On Time to Throw Despite The 49er's Pressure. Tyler Lockett Caught An Impactful Touchdown In The Fourth Quarter and Made A Meaningful Contribution In the Passing Game. Still, maybe The Seahawks Should Look to Move on From Him Given He And JSN Share A Similar Skill Set and The Redundancy Doesn’t Open Up The Offense. Neither Possesses Level Size, Speed, Or Separation Type Instead They’re Brilliant Quarter Guys. Seattle’s Offense  Needs A Convincing Deep Threat Beyond All-world DK Metcalf Who Can Stuck In The Mud On Deep Routes Because Refs Allow Defenses To Play Over Physical With Him On The Outside. 

Buccaneers Vs 

Saints

The Bucs needed Some Help In The Secondary After The Falcons Completely Tore Tampa To Shreds On The Back End. Antoine Winfield Jr Returned AND picked up A Big Play For Tampa Early Converting A Chris Olave Fumble Into A Touchdown And A two-score lead For Tampa. The Saints started Rookie Spencer Rattler and Lost Leading Receiver Chris Olave In The First Quarter To A Concussion A First Quarter 17-0 Made This Game Look Over Early. The Saints Would Pull An Incredible Second Quarter Scoring Run Starting With A Rashid Shaheed Punt Return Touchdown. The Tampa Drive That Would Produce The Punt Saw Tampa’s Offense Lose 17 Yards Total In Three Plays. Baker Mayfield Would Get A “Hot Hand” In A Negative Way by Throwing Back-to-back Interceptions And Tampa’s Prolific Offense Would Suffer two setbacks in Hopes Of building on Their Lead With Back Interceptions. The Saints Would Score Off Both Plays, starting With a field Goal To Pull The Tampa Lead Down To Four Points. Spencer Rattler Would Get His First Touchdown Of His Career To Bub Means For A 10 10-yard score and In a Quick Series Of Events The Saints Would Build A Three Point Lead and End The Half up 27-24. Baker Mayfield Would Put Together Another Touchdown Drive But His Third Int Of The Half before The End Of The Second. The Saints Would Author Another Touchdown Rattler Would Connect With Tight End  Foster Moreau For 41 Yard Pass And The Rookie Can Ball. With Derek Carr’s Out For Multiple Weeks We Could Quarterback Controversy. The Tampa Defense Remains Just as Vulnerable Despite The Anticipated Arrival Of Antoine Winfield. The Bucs' Secondary Would Strike Again But The Bucs Offense Would Explode in The Second Half And After 27 Point unanswered Run To Close the Game. A Big Part Of That Run Chris Godwin had 11 Catches and 125 Receiving Yards Including A Big 55 Yard Short Pass and Run For A Score. According To Next Gen Stats Godwin Gained 105 Yards After Catch. Running Back Sean Tucker Played Big Scoring Tampa’s Final Touchdown, For A Total Of 14 Carries For 136 Rushing Yards, 9.7 A Carry For One Touchdown. The Bucs' Offense produced 596 Total Yardage Nearly Twice The Amount Of The Saints and Despite Over 8 Yards A Throw And 7 Yards Per Rush. What Looked Like a Heroic Day For Spencer Rattler Turned To Gloom In The Second Half. The Only Reprieve The Saints Got From Three And Outs and Punts Were Two Interceptions. The Saints produce Just 111 Yards In The Second Half To 296 Yards Of Offense. Rattler Would Finish 22/40 For 243 Passing. Rattler Took Five Sacks Because The Saint's O-Line Doesn't Carr Whose In The Back They Won't Hold Up. Tampa Can Rumble With any Team And Win In A Variety Of Ways As The Rushing Attack Nearly MatCHES the Passing Attack But The Defense Remains Feast On Famine but The Pass Rush Continues To Come Along With Their Pressure By Committee  Approach. 

Broncos Vs. Chargers

I Love The Image Of Bo Nix Pumping His Fist After The Broncos Scored Their First Touchdown Of The Sunday Contest With The Chargers Up 23-7 In The Fourth Quarter. Nix Has Earned A lot Of Praise For His Play This Season Showing “Signs Of Promise” In His Play After A Strong Game Against The Raiders But He’s Got Ways To Go. Nix Threw An Interception Right Of The Gate, A Ball Thrown Behind That Landed In A Chargers defender's Hand Even Surprising The Safety Who caught the Ball In Shock Before Returning Which Leads To A Chargers Score. Despite Some Early Struggles In This Game, Nix Showed unparalleled confidence In His Ability, He’s Shown This Consistently, Leading The Broncos To Two Late Scores with The Second Touchdown Drive Much More Impressive Than The First.  Nix Completed Multiple Big Passes, One For 20 Yards, Another For 17 Yards. Nix Slipped Through a Sure Sack on A Fourth And Five And Converted A New Down.  Nix Would Close The Drive Out With a Spectacular Pass And Catch By Cortland Sutton In The Back Of The End Zone. Credit The Broncos For Continuing To Fight But The Broncos Put This One Away Early. If You’re The Broncos You Don’t Want To Depend On Your Rookie Quarterback To Create So Much But The Outside Receivers Don’t Do Much In Terms Of Outside Playmaking. The Top YAC Getters For Denver This Season, are Lil’JORDAN Humphrey With 88(before Week 6) The Next Best, Josh Reynolds With 35. The Denver Offense Relies On Nix and The Quarterback To Create So Much Of The Offenses Production. Nix Ranks 25th In YAC. Nix Averaged 3.78 Seconds On Time To Throw A Massive Number But He Constantly Had To Extend Plays To Give Guys Time To Get Down Field. 

The Chargers Cap Off The Win 23-16 As A Late Denver Push Falls Short As The Charger And Jim Harbaugh Quietly Rose To 3-2 On The Season. No One Mention The Chargers because Justin Herbert Doesn’t Make “Social Media” Throws Anymore. Still, Los Angeles finds Themselves Over .500. Herbert Finished The Game 21/34 For 237 Passing Yards and Just One Touchdown As The Charger Just Needed Him To Manage The Game. JK  Dobbins 25 Carries 96 Rushing Yards one Touchdown. The Chargers Will Hang Around For A While In The AFCWest But They Lack The Overall Talent Challenge. 

Patriots Vs. Texans

Drake Maye made His Debut For The Patriots And He’d Bring some Semblance Of Belief In the Patriots’ Future But This Game Against The Texans Belong To Joe Mixon and The Texans. 

Maye Took Over For Jacoby and NO rookies Found Themselves Thrown Into A More Disadvantageous Situation With The League’s Worse Offensive Line and No True “Top Shelf” Wide Receivers. The Game Started Inauspiciously With an Interception but Maye Work His Way Into three Touchdown Games. This Texans Secondary Held Superstar Quarterback Josh Allen To 9/30 In week Five Maye Look All The More Comfortable Several Open Holes. The Texans Picked Maye Off Twice Including One Overthrow and Another Off A Tipped Ball. Maye Would Finish 20/33 For 243, Three Touchdowns, And Two Picks and Hed Also Lead The Patriots In Rushing 5 Carries For 38 Rushing Yards. Maye Produced Touchdown That Travel Not All Just Screen passes Or Short Darts For His Play Makers To Turn into Big Plays On The Ground. He Connected With Kayson Boutte For 40 Yards. Maye Did A Good Job Of Moving Off Platform Creating New Lanes For His Receivers To Make Plays.The Other Touch Down Came On Shorter Passes But Maye Completed His First “NFL Open” Pass Down The Field. The Texans Ultimately Pummel The Patriots 41-21. Running Back Joe Mixon Had A Day of 102 Yards On The Ground and One Touchdown Two Catches For 30 Yards And One Touchdown Receiving. CJ Stroud 20/31 Passing, 192 Passing Yards three Touchdown, and One Interception. Texans Offense Capitalized On Several New England Mistake and Short Yardage Situations To Put This Game Away. Stefon Diggs 6 Catches For 77 Yards. The Patriots Found Something To Build On After this Tough Loss.
