Week five was a banger, that is, if you like low-scoring games and lack of offense. There are at least five teams who, offensively, can’t get their heads out of their rectums. Quarterback play in a bunch of these games has been dreadful. What we are seeing, world, is not a rebirth of greatness on the defensive side of the ball, it is an illusion because the offenses are lackluster. Anyway, here are my good, bad, and ugly for Week 5.
Good: Atlanta being one exception to the rule. Their come from behind overtime win against Tampa Bay. Bo Nix shredding apart Las Vegas’ defense, the New York Giants winning with defense, the Vikings looked like they’re favorites in the NFC to go to the Super Bowl, and Miami beating an awful Patriots team.
The Bad: San Francisco. Too many injuries at key positions, the Jets offense being led by a 40 year old quarterback, which is why this isn’t in the Ugly section, and the Buccaneers late-game collapse.
The Ugly: The Raiders, Patriots, Browns, and Dolphins’ offenses. Most have inept quarterback play while the rest have Casper the Ghost blocking for them, meaning zero offensive line quality. Coaching is also an area of concern among some of these teams because a head coach is supposed to be a unifier, not a divider, like the Raiders coach accidentally was.
