NFL Tuesday Takeaways & Picks update
The Titans are the best team in football. They continue to stack win after win in an impressive 6-game winning streak. They’ve defeated 5 playoff teams from 2020 during the streak (Saints, Rams, Bills, Chiefs and Colts). They lost Derrick Henry 2 weeks ago and Julio Jones was just put on IR before Sunday’s game against the Saints, did it matter, nope, Titans keep finding ways to win, a very impressive team.
The Cowboys bounced back with a resounding 40-point victory over the Atlanta Falcons in a Dan Quinn revenge game. The Chiefs offense looks fixed as they scored 40 points against the Raiders and Mahomes threw for 5 TDs. The Bills also rebounded with a 45-17 victory over the Jets.
The Cardinals looked lost without Kyler Murray, to be fair they also lost Colt McCoy and were forced to play a 3rd string QB named Chris Streveler. Needless to say, they were beat down by the Panthers in the much ballyhooed return of Cam Newton to Carolina. The Cardinals need Kyler to play against Seattle Sunday if they want any chance at the top seed in the NFC.
Speaking of Seattle, Russell Wilson did indeed look very limited in the first shutout loss of his career in Green Bay. The Packers defense and run game carried them to victory as Aaron Rodgers looked very mortal after his COVID-19 diagnosis. Both QBs looked rusty, but Wilson looked just flat out bad, taking sack after sack and no longer having the ability to extend plays and generate offense. Have to wonder if this is the last season Wilson plays for the Seahawks?
The Rams look like an all-star team with a bunch of names and little chemistry. Stafford, OBJ, Von Miller, Aaron Donald and Jalen Ramsey sounds a lot better on paper than in actuality, as they went to San Francisco and got dominated by an average Niners team. They need to develop some rapport quickly in the last 8 weeks if they are indeed going to live up to the “Super Bowl or bust” mentality the team has embraced. Games against the Packers, Cardinals and Ravens are looming.
