A game between two teams once thought to be two premier Super Bowl contenders heading into the 2020 season; the Pittsburgh Steelers traveled to Dallas to battle the Cowboys on Sunday.
Sleepwalking through the first half during their Monday Night matinee with the Giants, Tom Brady and the Buccaneers found themselves down 14-6 heading into halftime. Able to force him to hold the ball in the pocket early on in the game, the Giants looked well on their way to handing Tampa Bay their third loss of the season.
The Dolphins were victorious in Tua Tagovailoa’s first NFL start, despite the team’s awful offensive performance. With all the Tua hype entering the game, it was instead the Dolphins defense that carried the team to victory.
The New Orleans Saints and the Chicago Bears met for the 30th time on Sunday afternoon in a windy, wet, and cold Chicago, IL. The Saints lead the all-time series, 16-13, and came into week 8 with a 4-2 record, while the Bears had a 5-2 record.
The Denver Broncos got the best of the Los Angele Chargers in what could be the game of the week. Drew Lock’s touchdown pass to KJ Hamler with zero seconds on the clock tied the game at 30, and Brandon McManus hit the extra point to give the Broncos the wild comeback victory.
In what was expected to be a close, high-scoring game, the Arizona Cardinals manhandled the Dallas Cowboys on their way to a 38-10 victory on Monday night. Vance Joseph’s defense smothered Andy Dalton behind a backup-filled offensive line, and the rushing attack made the most out of the Cowboys porous defense.
The originally scheduled Thursday Night Football game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills went down on Monday evening. A battle of two 4-1 teams saw the Chiefs coming out on top, 26-17. They used a ground-and-pound attack to run away with it. The Chiefs racked up 245 yards on the ground led by rookie Clyde Edwards-Helaire’s 161. The team that normally relies on the “Air Attack” relied heavily on the “Edwards-Helaire” attack. I’ll see myself out. This team still has Le’Veon Bell coming too after signing him this past week.
A game between two teams deadlocked atop of the AFC North. The Pittsburgh Steelers once again proved to the Cleveland Browns that they remain the class of the division. Routing Cleveland 38-7, Ben Roethlisberger and company had their way with the Browns throughout the contest’s duration, racking up 277 yards of total offense, while forcing Baker Mayfield into multiple interceptions. Pittsburgh jumped out to a 24-0 lead, ending Cleveland’s four-game win streak and extending the Browns’ losing streak at Heinz Field to 17 games.
The Week 6 Sunday Night Football game featured the Los Angeles Rams and the San Francisco 49ers meeting up for the 141st time. The 49ers lead the all-time series between the two teams and were looking for their third consecutive win against the Rams on Sunday night. They succeeded and were able to get the win they so desperately needed.
The Baltimore Ravens squeaked out a 30-28 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. Both teams were in need of a win to keep pace within their divisions. Despite jumping out to a 24-6 lead late in the third quarter, the Ravens allowed Carson Wentz and the Eagles to storm back. After a one-yard touchdown dive by Wentz to pull Philadelphia to within two, the two-point attempt would be stopped short, allowing John Harbaugh’s team to survive and advance to 5-1 on the season.
The Los Angeles Rams nearly had a big come from behind win off a 25 point rally in the second half. They fell just short in a 35-32 loss over the Buffalo Bills. At first, it appeared as if the Bills were going to end the day at 3-0 with a blowout victory. With the victory over the Rams, this marks the first time Buffalo has started 3-0 in two consecutive seasons since 1991-92.
This week’s Monday Night Football is one to remember. The Raiders’ debut in Las Vegas also marks the 188th location for play in NFL history. It is also a memorable victory as the Raiders defeated the Saints in a 34-24 upset in their new home.
