1) Mediocrity has set in for NFL

It used to be said that the NFL wanted parity, now that parity has turned into mediocrity. The coaching in the NFL is mediocre. The level of play, especially from offensive lines, is mediocre, and really anybody can win on any given Sunday. If you are looking for a perfect sportsbook to bet all of the games let betting.net help you find the perfect place to bet on Pro Football!

2) Mac Jones is balling in New England

The Patriots are on a roll behind a rookie quarterback who looks less and less like a rookie each week. Last year all we heard was how Belichick was nothing without Brady; well, it seems that narrative may be changing right before our very eyes this season. The Patriots play great defense, and they don’t make mistakes on offense, and those two things alone will lead the Patriots back to the playoffs. The Patriots have a legit shot at winning the AFC East, and you can imagine that this team will only improve over the next year or two. Don’t be surprised if Belichick wins at least one more before he is done.

3) Why is Mason Rudolph still backing up Big Ben?

The Steelers were poised to take over first place in the AFC North, then Big Ben tested positive, and all hell broke loose. Let’s face it whenever Mason Rudolph takes over; all hell breaks loose in Pittsburgh. It looks like having an injury-prone older quarterback would want to make the Steelers go out and at least find a good stop-gap backup, but for some reason, they continue to roll with Rudolph.

4) The Packers are the best team in the NFC?

The Packers defense won the games against Seattle on Sunday, and that alone makes them the best team in the NFC at this moment. The Cardinals are missing Kyler Murray and DeAndre Hopkins, and you have to take that into account, but the Packers are hands down better on defense, and Rodgers is better than Murray anyway.

5) The Mike White era has ended in New York

After the last two weeks, New York fans had thought that maybe they had found the Next Kurt Warner or Tom Brady. Well, they got an answer on Sunday, and that answer is that they just found the next Colt McCoy! White was horrible as the jets got the brakes beaten off them by the Buffalo Bills. I guess it’s back to the drawing board in New York?

6) The Cleveland Browns have problems

The Browns issue to me outside of injuries looks to be coaches that do not make timely adjustments. A couple of times this season, this team has looked like a legit Super Bowl contender, and that was not the case on Sunday as the Patriots embarrassed the browns. The Browns, when healthy, should be a Super Bowl contender, but until the Coaching staff is upgraded, they won’t be. For all of the latest NFL News click here!

7) The Cowboys bounce back

After last week’s pathetic performance by the Dallas Cowboys, you had to wonder what to expect this week. Are they the same old Cowboys where a dramatic collapse follows a great start? Well, if Sunday is any indication, the Cowboys are just fine! They were dominant on both sides of the ball and never took their foot off the gas once in embarrassing the Falcons. Right now, the best teams in the NFC look to be the Packers and Cowboys, and this Cowboys team seems built to last if Dak stays healthy.

8) The Titans and Bills are the best in the AFC

The Titans have now won two straight games without the services of all-world running back Derrick Henry, and those two wins were over good teams. The Bills were coming off a disaster in Jacksonville but proved it was nothing more than a fluke as they destroyed Mike White and the Jets. These teams are well-coached and disciplined and will be there for a deep playoff run.
