MARKETPLACE
Week 6 in the NFL, frankly, was rath-
er underwhelming.
It was marked by blowouts and a lack
of drama, but there were still plenty of
takeaways to be gleaned. And perhaps
no one has more to celebrate than the
Cardinals, who took down the Browns
and remained the NFL ’s lone unblem-
ished team at 6-0.
But the Cowboys also have plenty to
be happy about, too, after they beat the
Patriots for the first time since 1996 and
continued to roll on offense. They have
star power all throughout their team,
but franchise quarterback Dak Prescott
is the catalyst that has Dallas looking
like a Super Bowl contender.
Here are the winners and losers of
Week 6.
WINNERS
Dak Prescott as an MVP candidate
Perhaps more so than any recent sea-
son, the early battle for the MVP race
seems to be filled with several contend-
ers. From Kyler Murray of the Cardinals,
Josh Allen of the Bills, Tom Brady of the
Buccaneers, Matthew Stafford of the
Rams to Lamar Jackson of the Ravens,
the list is full of passers with different
skill sets. After the Cowboys battled the
Patriots to overtime and then prevailed
35-29, add Cowboys quarterback Dak
Prescott to that list.
Prescott has completed 73.1% of his
passes (which ranks second in the NFL)
for 1,813 yards (fifth), with 16 touch-
downs (tied for third), with a QB rating
of 115 (fourth). Prescott has been espe-
cially reliable for the Cowboys (5-1) in
the clutch. And while the Dallas roster is
exceptionally talented, Prescott has ele-
vated the play of the young players – es-
pecially the young receivers like CeeDee
Lamb, who caught the game-winning
touchdown pass against New England.
Prescott’s understanding of the Dallas
offense under coordinator Kellen Moore
is remarkable and his ability to make
downfield throws while on the move
makes him so difficult to defend. Not
only is Prescott playing at an elite level,
he has the Cowboys looking like a prob-
lem for the rest of the NFC.
The Bengals offense with
Ja’Marr Chase
These are not the same Bengals that
we had seen over the last half decade.
This young team took another step in a
dominant 34-11 victory against the Li-
ons. Second-year passer Joe Burrow has
been excellent, but it’s his former LSU
teammate and rookie No. 5 overall pick
Ja’Marr Chase who has electrified this
offense. Chase now has 553 yards and
five touchdowns on 27 catches this year.
His receiving yards are second most in
NFL history for a player through his first
six games.
Just watch the effort that Chase
made on the Joe Mixon touchdown to
make the key block down the field.
These are the effort plays that good
teams make. The Bengals have become
one of the most reliable red-zone teams
in the NFL. They entered Week 6 ranked
third in the league (80%) and converted
both their trips inside the 20. Are the
Bengals a playoff team? It’s still far too
early to tell. While they toppled a capa-
ble Steelers team in Week 3 and an in-
consistent Vikings squad in the season
opener, their other victories have come
against the Lions and Jaguars, who have
combined for a 1-11 record. They need
more games like this against playoff-
caliber opponents. At the very least, it’s
safe to say this team just being in the
conversation shows how much it has
grown.
LOSERS
The entire Week 6 slate
As far as parity and entertainment
goes, Week 6 was a dud. Only one of the 1
p.m. ET games was a one-score game
with any drama, that was between the
Panthers and the Vikings. Even then, it
only became that way late in the game.
The best game of the week, far and
away, was the one between the Patriots
and the Cowboys in the later afternoon
window. Other than that, the only other
one-score games Sunday were between
the Dolphins and the Jaguars in Lon-
don, which took place in the morning,
and the Steelers-Seahawks matchup in
prime time.
The average margin of victory in Sun-
day’s games was 15.4 points. Even the
night game, which is usually the mar-
quee matchup of the week, was dulled
because Seahawks quarterback Russell
Wilson was sidelined against the Steel-
ers because of a finger injury. And while
the game ended up being decided in
overtime, the primary source of drama
came down to an odd officiating se-
quence and several turnovers. NFL Sun-
days are typically wild and this some-
times happens. The good news is that
Monday night’s game should have been
an interesting look at a pair of teams in
the AFC that should be up for playoff
spots in the Bills and the Titans.
Kansas City ball security
The second half of the Chiefs’ 31-13
victory against the Washington Football
Team showed just how dangerous this
team can be when its offense is clicking.
The Chiefs scored 21 unanswered points
after halftime to run away with the
game. But ball security issues are a ma-
jor problem for the reigning AFC cham-
pions. And if the problem persists, it
threatens their chances of making an-
other deep run in the postseason.
With three more giveaways against
Washington, the Chiefs now rank dead
last in the NFL with 14. Most problem-
atic is that 10 of those have come after
the Chiefs have crossed the 50-yard
line, essentially wiping out scoring op-
portunities. The good news is that so
many of these have been careless mis-
takes. Just on Sunday, one of quarter-
back Patrick Mahomes’ interceptions
glanced off of receiver Tyreek Hill’s
hands. Fellow receiver Mecole Hardman
fumbled in the second quarter, an issue
the Chiefs’ skill players have had all sea-
son, loose handling of the ball. Ma-
homes, at times, looks as if he’s trying to
do too much. He has thrown at least one
pick in each of his last five games. He is
tied for second most in the league with
eight. Last season, he had six in the en-
tire season. The Chiefs are still one of
the most explosive and dangerous
teams in the league, but if they don’t
solve their ball security problems, that
alone won’t be enough to get them out of
tough matchups.
Chargers’ run defense
The Chargers were a surprise upstart
in the NFL this season, and still are, but
their 34-6 loss against the Ravens re-
vealed their most concerning flaw. A
rushing defense that came into Week 6
ranked last in the entire league (157.6
yards allowed per game) was mastered
by Baltimore. To be clear, the Ravens’
rushing outfit would cause fits for any
defense. But Baltimore used six differ-
ent ball carriers to total 187 rushing
yards. In Los Angeles’ only other loss of
the season, a Week 2 game against the
Cowboys, Dallas rushed for 198 yards,
meaning that in the Chargers’ losses,
they gave up an average of 192.5 yards
per game.
In LA ’s victories, however, that num-
ber drops to 147.5. Taking out last week’s
47-42 shootout victory against the
Browns in which Cleveland rushed for
230 yards, that number drops to 120.
When the Chargers give up that many
rushing yards, it does two things: The
defense wears down and stays on the
field – the Ravens held the ball for 38:07
of game time – but it also keeps the ex-
plosive Chargers offense on the sideline.
Sam Darnold and the Panthers’
receivers
After starting the season 3-0, the
Panthers have been complete opposites
and are in the middle of a three-game
losing streak after they fell to the Vik-
ings 34-28. All three losses have come
with star running back Christian
McCaffrey sidelined. McCaffrey was
placed on injured reserve Saturday, so
he’ll be on that for at least two more
games. McCaffrey, one of the top pass-
catching backs in the NFL, had been a
safety valve for Sam Darnold. Without
him, Carolina’s receivers have under-
whelmed. Against Minnesota, the Pan-
thers had six dropped passes, several of
which would’ve extended drives had
they resulted in first downs.
Darnold finished the game 17 of 41
passing for 207 yards with one touch-
down and one interception for a QB rat-
ing of 55.8. His first half was even worse.
He finished with a QB rating of 17.8. But
the drops appeared to impact Darnold’s
decision-making and accuracy. While
Darnold’s play improved in the fourth –
he helped the Panthers score 11 unan-
swered points in the final five minutes
of the game – he also missed on several
throws he should’ve completed. Caroli-
na’s schedule eases up over the next
couple of weeks before it stiffens at the
end of the year. But if the Panthers can’t
figure out how to win without McCaffrey
and if they can’t stop the self-enforced
errors, their hot start to the season may
just end up going to waste.
Vic Fangio
The Broncos got cooked at home
against a division opponent that just
had its head coach resign less than a
week before the game because of leaked
emails that showed misogynistic and
homophobic language. And it was the
defense, Fangio’s expertise, that let
Denver down. The Raiders, coached by
interim Rich Bisaccia after Jon Gruden
resigned last Monday, beat the Broncos
34-24. Now, Broncos quarterback Teddy
Bridgewater did account for four turn-
overs, but he was playing at a disadvan-
tage because the defense put him in a
hole from very early on.
This was a Raiders team that had a
new play-caller in offensive coordinator
Greg Olson and whose players and
coaches had to spend all week answer-
ing questions about Gruden. “The best
part for me was getting back on the
grass,” Bisaccia said. “The worst part for
me was figuring out the headset.” That’s
how new this was to Las Vegas’ staff.
The Broncos allowed the Raiders to con-
vert seven chunk plays of 20 or more
yards. Denver had only five fewer yards
of total offense than Las Vegas gained
(426-421), but Denver needed 25 more
plays to get there. That means the Raid-
ers averaged an astounding 8.2 yards
per play. Denver started the season hot,
but its three victories came against the
Giants, Jaguars and Jets, who are 3-14
combined. Now, after the Broncos fell to
15-23 since Fangio became their head
coach, he’s about to start facing ques-
tions about his future.
