Every NFL Sunday is very hectic with the amount of games that goes on, with over ten plus games being on every Sunday each window of games always has an interesting topic to discuss about the game, whether that’s from the 1’ o’clock, 4’ o’clock or Sunday night games. With week one pretty much over let’s go through my biggest takeaway from each window of yesterday’s games.
Patriots vs Dolphins
Starting off with the 1’o’clock game the Patriots vs Dolphins game was definitely interesting for the fact that the Pats offense looked clunky and slow as predicted, they only scored 7 points in this ballgame and also had three turnovers which cost them big time. For the Dolphins if it wasn’t for New England having multiple turnovers Miami could have easily lost this game. Tyreek Hill also started to look frustrated with QB Tua Tagovailoa missing Hill on multiple wide open deep routes and easy mid level throws. Miami wins 20-7.
Vikings vs Packers
Just like week one of last year the Green Bay Packers looked awful, with Green Bay’s offense also looking clunky without multiple star offensive lineman and no Davante Adams who left for the Raiders this offseason. Green Bay had a shot to win this game as rookie receiver Christian Watson dropped a touchdown pass and the Packers got stuffed on 4th and goal on the 1 yard line. As for the Vikings, rookie head coach Kevin O’Connell looked excellent in his debut, with this new offensive scheme Justin Jefferson was wide open on multiple deep routes, the Vikings as predicted are looking like an excellent team. Vikings win 23-7.
Buccaneers vs Cowboys
The Dallas Cowboys are circling the drain as we know it, with the team losing QB Dak Prescott for multiple weeks due to a hand injury and the team already looking lost on offense this could potentially be a disastrous year for the Cowboys. Dallas lost many pieces this offseason on both sides of the ball and it showed, losing WR’s Amari Cooper and Cedrick Wilson, RT La’el Collins and LG Connor Williams this offense is already off to a very slow start with only scoring 3 points last night. For Tampa there’s not much to takeaway other than the offensive line somewhat held up against Dallas only allowing two sacks. The Bucs win 19-3.
