NFL Week 6 Review

Checking in on the table

Hot Takes

1. Curse set to continue

Drew Brees has beaten 31 out of the 32 teams in the NFL. The one team he's missing: The Baltimore Ravens. The Saints play the Ravens this Sunday. The ravens are coming off a 11 sack game - I've tipped them to add to their 5-1 overall record against the Saints. 

2. Aaron Rogers Excellence

Crazy 4th quarter comebacks aside. Aaron Rodgers in the red zone since 2016 (29 starts): 55 TDs, 0 INTs.

3.  Garrett Extension Incoming

After blowing out the Jags it's being reported that Jason Garrett will now be receiving a contract extension. This goes against the previous reports that he was on the hot seat. At this point in time he should be reagarded as a protected species. 

4.  Deshuan Watson Needs Help

The Texans O-line has surrendered 65 quarterback hits this year. This is the most in the NFL by far - 38% more than the teams with the 2nd most (47 - ATL/PHI). For someone coming off a season ending ACL injury the Texans need to do a lot better job of protecting their franchise QB. 

5.  Bell holdout continues

Do the Steelers need to pay Bell? ESPN's comparison for the first 6 games of 2017 (Bell) and 2018 (Conner)

LOL @ Jason Garrett getting a contract extension.  I don't think anyone views him as a good coach, even Jerry Jones.  But he'll do what Jerry wants, and that's good enough.
