Week 7 in the NFL was nothing short of spectacular, some underdogs won and some teams are still on fire. Let’s go through my three biggest takeaways from Sunday’s games and why they should or shouldn’t be worried about their season.
Upset alert all around the league
With there being multiple teams around the league every week let’s look at this week’s biggest upsets, first let’s go back to the two teams that were on last week’s list with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Green Bay Packers who both lost two teams who are under .500 on the season and now both the Packers and Bucs are 3-4 on the season as they look to be in trouble if they want to compete for a Super Bowl this season. Another upset and possibly the upset team of the year is the Seattle Seahawks who are really overachieving as they advanced to 4-3 on the year as they blew out the Los Angeles Chargers at Sofi Stadium in L.A.
Chiefs a top 3 team in the league?
With a dominating 44-23 win over the San francisco 49ers in the 4 o’clock window game the Chiefs and the NFL had their first look at newly acquired running back Christian Mccaffrey on the 49ers and wow does this trade have potential, Mccaffrey look phenomenal in his first game as a 49ers with limited snaps and less than four days with this playbook. For the Kansas City they turned the number one defense in the league into shambles with Patrick Mahomes throwing four touchdowns and over 400 passing yards, this Chiefs team looked great on both sides of the ball, from sacking Jimmy Garrappolo multiple times and the Chiefs registering the best offense in the league without Tyreek Hill.
NFC East looks dominant
With the philadelphia Eagles on a bye the rest of the NFC East all won in the 1 o’clock window with the Dallas Cowboys routing the Detroit Lions at home with another dominant defensive performance, the New York Giants advancing to 6-1 with a nail biting win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Jacksonville and newly added head coach Brian Daboll turning around this organization. Lastly the Washington Commanders narrowly beat the Green Bay Packers to advance to 2-5 on the season as backup quarterback Taylor Hieneke played well under the circumstances he was under.
