Week 2 Might have been the most upsetting week we’ve seen in over five years! Seven underdogs won against the favored team — which according to FOX Sports — is only the third time that’s happened in Week 2 in the last nine seasons (seven won in 2016 and 2018). In the past two weeks, there have been more field goals (141) than offensive touchdowns (129), and 22 games have been decided by one possession, tying the second most games of its kind since 1970.
Week 2 started off with what hoped to be a superstar showdown turned out to be a somber spectacle. After Miami Dolphins Quarterback left the field with a concussion, the Buffalo Bills were able to secure a win on the road. However, the question remains: Will Tua Tagovailoa continue to play in the NFL? Which bring us to our Top 10 headlines to wrap up week 2 of the NFL.
Does Tua Need to Retire?
We waited in angst as we saw Tua go down and have an uncontrollable reaction after hitting the ground. Sources reveal that his wife told Tua Tagovailoa’s brother — who then revealed to the media — that Tua is “OK”. According bleacher report, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported Sunday that Tagovailoa “has no plans to retire” and he’s lining up meetings with specialists to identify the best courses of action moving forward.
“Respectfully, I am not Garrett Wilson”
After the 49ers ‘stifling’ defense held Jets stud WR Garrett Wilson to 60 yards on 6 catches, A reporter had the nerve to ask Vikings superstar WR Justin Jefferson did he pay attention to how the 49ers played Wilson and will that have an affect on how you prepare. We then seen the Vikings upset the 49ers as Justin Jefferson made child’s play of the San Francisco secondary going yard for a 97-yard touchdown.
CowBOY did you see Alvin Kamara?
ALVIN KAMARA… that’s the post! 4 Touchdowns… WOW!
Is Breece Hall an early favorite for Offensive Player of the Year?
After posting a stellar week 1 line of 93 all-purpose yards and a touchdown, he followed up with a another above average performance. The rookie recorded 114 all-purpose yards and a touchdown catch. Could this rookie jump out to be the early favorite for
Offensive Player of the Year? We think so! He’s off to such a hot start they drug tested him already!
Raiders route Winless Ravens, Whose to Blame?
After an unimaginable 0-2 start, the Baltimore Ravens now look around at whose to blame as they pick up the pieces to try and put together a win for week 3 against the Dallas Cowboys
TAMPA BAKER BUCCANEERS!
Baker Mayfield has been off to an exceptional start in Tampa Bay, throwing for a total of 474 yards and 5 touchdowns in 2 games. If this magic can carry over to week 3, do we see and little light shed on a Baker MVP season?
Marvin Harrison Jr. — Just like my Daddy
After a loss to the Bills where Marvin Harrison Jr. was not involved as much as he’d liked, he flipped the script the following week, showing flashes of what his highest potential could look like, similar to his father. Marvin Harrison in his entire 12-year career with the Colts, has only recorded 100 receiving yards a 2 touchdowns only once. His son did that in just his second-ever NFL game. This is just the beginning of the young protégé.
Chiefs Win, Refs Win, What’s for dinner?
After what seemed to be very controversial but ultimately the right call, the Chiefs escape with a win at Arrowhead against the Cinncinati Bengals, this seems to be an ‘ongoing theme’ that the refs ‘bail out’ Kansas City whenver things get close, but it was indeed the right call, Chiefs win!
Caleb Will-I be able to trust you?
Caleb Williams has show flashes of greatness, but still gives us reasons to not rely on a rookie to take a team to the promise land. A crucial late game turnover ultimately ruined the Bears chances to upset the Houston Texans in what was a close competitive game all the way through. As Caleb grows into a more mature QB and field general, he will learn that he not have to make a way out of no way every play, and it might just be beneficial to throw the ball away.
ATLANTA IS THE REAL DIRTY BIRDS!
In what might be the Upset of the NFL week 2, the Atlanta Falcons travel up north to Philadelpha and steal a win from the Eagles nest. Kirk Cousins looked like primetime Kirk Cousins in his final drive as he marched down the field to throw the game-winning touchdown to Drake London to seal the win.
