NFL Tuesday Takeaways & Picks update
The more things seem to change, the more things stay the same in the NFL. Despite all of the wild outcomes and situations we’ve seen unfold, it appears the AFC will be decided between, surprise, surprise, the Chiefs and the Patriots. With the Titans and Bills unable to take hold of the conference, the AFC juggernauts have taken control again.
In the NFC, Kliff Kingsbury has somehow learned to coach and shown he is more capable than depending on Kyler Murray’s backyard improvisational skills to win football games. He’s won 2 out of 3 games without Murray, helping guide Colt McCoy to 2 wins over divisional rivals San Francisco and Seattle, very impressive.
Speaking of impressive, Tom Brady continued his streak of not losing 3 games in a row, that dates back to 2002. How? Is he human? These are the questions I ask, after hearing insane stats like that. The Bucs are rounding into form, and took care of the hapless Giants on MNF, in a game that never really seemed like it was in doubt for TB12 and co.
The Packers and Cowboys were both in the discussion for conference favorites and possible bye week possibilities until this past weekend. The Packers lost a nail-biter to the Vikings at the last second and the Cowboys were completely dominated in Kansas City, falling to the Chiefs.
The Bears and Seahawks are in a race to the bottom of the league and neither team has a first round pick to look forward to. The Seahawks seem to be looking at the last days of Russell Wilson’s tenure, while the Bears are surely seeing the last days of Matt Nagy’s tenure. Big changes are on the horizon for both teams, as they both are awful and even worse to watch.
