Welcome to the Island of Misfit Wins! (The Jets Actually Did It!)
The impossible has happened: the New York Jets are on the board! They somehow rolled up 502 yards of offense (254 on the ground!) and three 4th-quarter TDs for their first win of the season. Was it Justin Fields answering his owner's call, or just the Bengals being the Bengals?
Meanwhile, we have the official return of "Good Jordan Love," who rallied the Packers alongside the unstoppable force that is Tucker Kraft. Then we have the Dolphins and Ravens who pulled off massive upsets, leading to a glorious four-touchdown performance from Tua. Speaking of upsets: did the Chargers finally, mercifully, end the Carson Wentz experience in Minnesota?
In the good news file: James Cook went full OJ Simpson (without breaking the record) for 216 yards, and Saquon reminded everyone why he gets the big bucks.
As we look to Week 9, we have rookie QBs making first starts, the Bad Vibes Bowl in San Francisco, and the Cowboys coming off a disastrous loss. Should you really trust the Rams by a million, or is the 49ers' struggle against the Texans a sign of a deeper problem?
Grab your life vest! We're diving into the Week 8 chaos and charting the course for Week 9 survival!
