“NFL NOTEBOOK
==========
Here-There-Everywhere in NFL Headlines:
CHARGERS..Yes the record is (3-3), but who did they beat? Raiders-Carolina-Denver? Raiders are a mess. Carolina has no talent. Denver force feeding rookie QB. Sorry-not ready to order playoff tickets yet.
49ERS..BIg game with the Chiefs. What a first half from Brock Purdy with his 100-QB rating..1,629Y-passing..9TDs..Running backs averaging (5.0YPC) and the wideouts (13YPC). All that without RB-Christian McCaffrey.
RAVENS..So much for an 0-2 start. The offense is hot (453YPG). QB-Lamar Jackson (67%-12TD-2Int-108QBR). Then there is RB-Derrick Henry and his (5.9YPC). And we have not even talked about the Baltimore defense.
VIKINGS…Are they the real deal? Find out this weekend. Sam Darnold has 11-TD passes and a 103-rating. Now the Vikes get ready for 4-of-6 on the road.
DETROIT..The Lions built their rep for a couple of years with defense. Don’t look now, the Lions are averaging (416YPG). Big play wide receivers and power running backs.
CHICAGO…Took Caleb Williams a couple of weeks to settle in-since then, dangerous…with (1,486APY) so far. He is the real-deal.
TAMPA BAY..What a first half of the season for Baker Mayfield..15TD passes already and his wideouts Chris Godwin and Mike Evans, a blazing start (68R) so far.
WASHINGTON..Jayden Daniels keeps rolling, a (4-2) start..a 107-rating and (1,726APY)
ATLANTA..Kirk Cousins, what a difference maker, triggering a Falcons offense averaging (368YPG).
JETS..Now they are scary, with Aaron Rodgers throwing passes to Davante Adams..Garrett Wilson..Allen Lazard..plus all purpose RB-Breece Hall. Pretty dangerous.
ARIZONA…The record doesn’t look good, but that includes losing to Buffalo by 6 and by 7 to Detroit. Kyler Murray’s offense is marching to (332YPG) an outing.
CAROLINA..This is bad, a failing first round draft pick QB…a 75-QBR and 10-turnovers.
BENGALS..Yes Joe Burrow has a (110) rating but they have nothing else around him-thus (2-4) and in trouble.
BROWNS..What misery with QB-Deshaun Watson, a 76-rating..5TDs-6 turnovers..31-sacks taken..and just (240YPG).
DENVER..This will take time with young QB-Bo Nix-running for his life out of the pocket and with little help from his wideouts.
COLTS…QB of the future? Anthony Richardson with a 60-rating…6-picks and 3-fumbles lost already. Yikes.
JAGUARS…Trevor Lawrence has to carry them. How about criticism for a defense giving up (390YPG).
CHIEFS..Unbeaten, but how weird is this? Averaging (354YPG) but Patrick Mahomes has just 6-TD passes and 6-interceptions.
RAIDERS…A league worst (-10) in turnover margin. No QB. No RB. Now traded Davante Adams. And a mess of injuries in the defensive front.
MIAMI..No Tua Tagovailoa yet. How about these numbers..Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle both averaging (12YPC). a year ago they averaged (18-17) yards per catch.
PATRIOTS..Pretty awful. QB rating of two starters (76) and an offense averaging (257Y) while the defense is giving up (350YPG)
STEELERS…Have to live off the defense because Justin Fields has taken 16-sacks, there is little production from the wideouts. Thank goodness for the TJ Watt-led defense.
TITANS..What regression from last year’s rookie QB-Will Levis. A 70-rating and 10-turnovers already.
DALLAS..it’s not Dak Prescott’s fault because his defense has massive injury issues, is giving up (356YPG) and allowed 18-TDs already.
RAMS…Sean McVay has problems. Life after Aaron Donald is awful, with a defense giving up (373YPG) and has given up 17-TDs in 5-games.
SAINTS..So much for a quick start, with a defense allowing (395YPG) with a losing streak now at 4-straight.
GIANTS..Injuries piling up again and QB-Daniel Jones sacked 14-times already
EAGLES..A wild team, all that offense but 8-turnovers and just 2-takeaways, and have allowed 14-sacks so far.
SEATTLE..Geno Smith has to do too much. He’s taken 19-sacks so far and has 10-turnovers.
