NFL: Reviewing Every Team That Played In Week 6 (MNF Not Included)

Week six in the NFL has come and gone. We were treated to some excellent games, we saw some major upsets and some clutch performances. Some teams dug themselves a hole that looks to be too steep to get out of, and others might have saved their seasons with a win. Here is a review of every team that played in week 6, with the exception of the two Monday Night Football games.

Philadelphia Eagles

The Eagles suffer their second straight loss at the hands of a division opponent. Saquon only getting 12 carries could be the source of their problems, but keep trying to keep A.J. Brown happy. That seems to work well.

New York Giants

The Jaxson Dart-Cam Skattebo sensation tandem stays hot behind four combined rushing touchdowns. I mean, who wants to try and tackle Skattebo?

Denver Broncos

A win is a win. The Broncos’ defense racks up a whopping nine sacks in a grinder of a game in London against the Jets.

New York Jets

I think we are all as puzzled as Garrett Wilson about the Jets’ approach in the two-minute drill, let alone the direction of this team. This team could be selling at the deadline coming up.

Arizona Cardinals

No Kyler, almost no problem. Jacoby Brissett almost scored a win against the Colts, but they came up short in the closing moments to fall to 2-4, which seems like a mile behind their division foes.

Indianapolis Colts

Despite an odd pregame warmup debacle, the Colts rally together and pull off a comeback win. Jonathan Taylor continues to look like the best back in football this season.

Los Angeles Chargers

Justin Herbert leads a game-winning drive to break the hearts of the Dolphins, a feeling they are familiar with. Ladd McConkey finally breaks through with 100 yards and a touchdown.

Miami Dolphins

Tua Tagovailoa throws three picks, and the Dolphins fall to 1-5. However, Tua sells out his teammates at the podium postgame for not showing up to meetings. 

New England Patriots

Drake Maye was dealing against the Saints, throwing for 261 yards and three touchdowns as the Patriots scored their fourth win of the year (as many as Brian Callahan had during his Titans tenure).

New Orleans Saints

The Saints stayed in the game against the Patriots, but they committed the only turnover in the game, which could have very well been the difference.

Cleveland Browns

Dillon Gabriel plays decent once again behind a conservative pass game, but the Browns could only muster three field goals, which is not good enough against the Steelers.

Pittsburgh Steelers

The Steelers take a commanding lead in the AFC North after handling the Browns. Aaron Rodgers and D.K. Metcalf continue to build their chemistry as they link up for another touchdown and 95 yards. The defense racked up six sacks as well.

Dallas Cowboys

The Cowboys were indeed not ready for Rico Dowdle. George Pickens detonated for 168 yards and a touchdown in a shootout game, but the Panthers got the last laugh.

Carolina Panthers

Dowdle owns the Cowboys with over 200 scrimmage yards and a touchdown, and they get the win over the Cowboys to draw to .500

Seattle Seahawks

Jaxon Smith-Njigba keeps his momentum going with over 160 yards and a touchdown, leading Seattle to another victory over a good Jaguars team.

Jacksonville Jaguars

The Jags lose a tough one at home against Seattle. Kicker Cam Little missed an extra point and a field goal, but BTJ seemed to get back on track with 90 yards and a touchdown.

Los Angeles Rams

Puka Nacua suffered an ankle injury in the game, but the Rams still got it done playing against a Lamar Jackson-less Ravens team.

Baltimore Ravens

Well, Derrick Henry got 24 carries for 122 yards, but he got zero carries from the one-yard line before halftime. That resulted in zero points for the Ravens as they mustered only three points for the entire game and dropped to a staggering 1-5.

Tennessee Titans

The Titans once again come to life a little bit in the fourth quarter as they lose to the Raiders. HC Brian Callahan was fired Monday afternoon, and Mike McCoy takes over as interim.

Las Vegas Raiders

Geno Smith throws another pick, but they get the win. Ashton Jeanty strings together another good game with 75 rushing yards and a touchdown.

Cincinnati Bengals

Joe Flacco’s first game as a Bengal resulted in a loss to the Packers. It was nice to see Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins touch the ball, though.

Green Bay Packers

Josh Jacobs rushes for 93 yards and two touchdowns as the Packers handle business and respond to the Bengals second-half rally.

San Francisco 49ers

Mac Jones could not pull another win out against the Bucs. The Niners lose yet another top player in Fred Warner for the season due to an ankle injury.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Baker Mayfield loses Emeka Egbuka in the game but still tosses touchdowns to Tez Johnson and Kameron Johnson for their first NFL touchdowns. The Bucs go to 5-1 and keep rolling.

Detroit Lions

The Lions lose a tough one on the road after their early momentum was killed by an illegal formation penalty on the goal line. 

Kansas City Chiefs

The Chiefs put together a good offensive game and hung 30 points on a good Lions team, and got to .500.
