What to Watch For
Denver has made a nice two game run recently, how will it matchup with Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs coming in riding a two game losing streak. Will the Lions let this past weeks controversial ending affect them at home in another big game, this time against the Vikings. A rematch of Super Bowl II in Green Bay and it looks better now that the Raiders are winning this season. A huge AFC South matchup with the division lead on the line in Indianapolis. Kyler Murray vs Daniel Jones in the big apple. This was supposed to be a bottom-feeder matchup, but it has turned into one with some intrigue. How will Teddy Bridgewater and the Saints fair on a cool Chicago afternoon. Lamar Jackson and the Ravens head to Seattle and the toughest place to play in the NFL. Then, in Dallas a huge matchup between teams with identical records. Three weeks ago this looked like a bleak matchup as the Cowboys were 3-0 now sitting at 3-3 and the Eagles were 1-2 and now sit at 3-3. Then on Monday the red hot Patriots and their vaunted defense head to New York for a rivalry game.
Have a magical day and we will SEE YA! real soon.
