NFL 2024-2025 Season

A recap on week 9, TNF Jets -21 - 13 Texans
We got to see both the good & bad of Rodgers, a 1st half with only 7 of 14 completion foe a little over 30 yards. Then the game changing pass to the back of the End Zone resulting in an amazing TD catch by Wilson. Rodgers is showing more signs of aging but there's still some of the old magic sprinkled in.

Ravens 41 - 10 Broncos
Ravens just too strong for the Broncos, Nix is early in his development as an NFL QB & he was exposed'

Packers 14 - 24 Lions
One more question has been answered regarding the Lions being a serious contender. Playing outdoors in wet & windy conditions Goff continued his ridiculous efficiency. The double running threat of Montgomery & Gibbs ensures that he doesn't have to do the job all on his own.
The Packers measured up reasonable well statistically, aside from a poor return regarding penalties with 10 to the Lions 5. Green Bay even had more offensive yards, but shunned good opportunities. When Love threw an INT which was returned for a TD the game slipped away. Late scores from the Packer made it looked closer than is actually was. Love is not fully fit, & it showed at times. The Packers will bounce back as they are a young talented team.

Vikings 21 -13 Colts
After a slow start the Vikings & Darnold got into their stride. Flacco had a lot to deal with in terms of unravelling all the looks & schemes that the Vikings D presented, not the challenge that he would've wanted for his first full start of the year.

If you only have time to watch one clip from this weeks games, check out the catch & run by Saquon Barkley, it's jaw-dropping.

Las Vegas Raiders head coach has fired offensive coordinator Luke Getsy yesterday after only nine games with the team.

He also go rid of offensive line coach James Cregg and quarterbacks coach Rich Scangarello, also in their first season with the team.

Chiefs 30 - 24 Buccs (O/T)
Mahomes looked as good as I've seen him all year, finding Kelce 14 times for 100 yards in their usual telepathic manner. & the newly sisned DeAndre Hopkins had 8 grabs for 86 & 2 TD's. The Chiefs converted 12/18 times on 3rd down which is an impressive percentage. The Buccs played their part despite the Chiefs controlling the clock. When a late Buccs TD brought them within one with seconds remaining a game tying extra point took the game into overtime with the Chiefs winning the coin toss & then driving down the field for a game winning TD.

Saints sacked their Head Coach Dennis Allen after 7 straight losses, the final straw was a defeat by a very poor Panthers side. The seasons started brightly for the Saints with 2 wins by margins of 37 & 25 points, they have fallen of a cliff since. Special Teams Coordinator Darren Rizzi has been appointed interim Head Coach.

Ravens 35 - 34 Bengals
A great game showcasing two of the best QB's in the NFL. Despite the Bengals taking a 21-7 lead early in the 3rd quarter it always had the feel of the winner being the team that had the ball last. Neither side have a top defence & both give up points. Not one field goal in the game, both QB's threw 4 TD's. Hard to unravel what made the difference Jackson was more efficient that Burrow. The fumble lost by the Bengals was significant.
The correct call was made by the Bengals after they tried to win the game in regulation in the dying seconds with a 2 point attempt as they ultimately came up short. Lamar was so hot in the 2nd half, so giving him any chance was a bigger risk.
Forgot to mention that Tucker missed an extra point, but Jackson soon corrected that mistake as he ran in for 2 points on their next possesion.
