Week 10 was awesome! There were several great games. If ratings are down this week, I’ll be shocked. Especially now that the election is over. 

1. The Packers are toast. I don’t care how bad the NFC North is. They have too many injuries to overcome on defense and the offense is inconsistent. Mike McCarthy is in trouble.

2. The Rams and Jets set football back about 30 years yesterday. What an ugly game. Bryce Petty is clearly not the long term answer at quarterback for the Jets.
3. There are two reasons why the Panthers are 3-6 after nine weeks. Cam Newton has been inconsistent and the defense has been subpar. Newton and the defense cost the Panthers the game yesterday in their 20-17 loss to the Chiefs. 
4. The Atlanta Falcons reinforced the notion nationally that they are frauds. They lost 24-15 to the Eagles and proved that they can’t win on the road. I have never bought this team as a contender. 
5. The Vikings lost their fourth straight game yesterday, a 26-20 loss to the Redskins. It’s hard to pin this loss on the offense. 
Minnesota’s defense played terrible and has gone from being arguably the best defense in the league to a middle of the pack unit in a span of four weeks. 
6. Jay Cutler once again reminded us yesterday why he might be the most frustrating quarterback the NFL has seen since Jeff George. Talk about a waste of arm talent.
7. Cowboys rookie running back Ezekiel Elliott furthered his case as a league MVP candidate yesterday with performance against the Steelers. 
All the focus has been on Dak Prescott but Elliott might be the single biggest reason for the Cowboys revival and their 8-1 record.
8. If I were a Chargers fan this morning, I would be frustrated with Phillip Rivers too. He threw four costly interceptions in the Chargers 31-24 loss to the Dolphins. 
Rivers is fun to watch especially because he has a gunslinger mentality but that gunslinger mentality has gotten him into trouble through the years. Yesterday was proof of that.
9. Speaking of the Dolphins. They are continuing to fly under the radar. Adam Gase’s team has won five in a row and are only two games behind the Patriots in the AFC East. The Dolphins are alive and well in the AFC playoff hunt. 
10. The Seahawks beat the Patriots because they made more plays offensively and didn’t turn the ball over. Conversely, the Patriots turned over the ball over twice and couldn’t score when the game was on the line in the end. Seattle was the better in this game.
