NFL week 8 may be the most WILD week of the NFL so far. The Denver Broncos took down Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in a thrilling game. Lamar Jackson gets hurt AGAIN as the Baltimore Ravens are dismantled by the Buffalo Bills. Josh Allen is an alien and becomes the Buffalo Bills all time leader in touchdown passes. The Detroit Lions take down the previously undefeated Minnesota Vikings. Is Kyler Murray's time up in Minnesota? Do the Vikings need to trade for Kirk Cousins? Is Jahmyr Gibbs the NFL MVP? The Pittsburgh Steelers have found their identity and that is running the ball as they ran all over the Cleveland Browns and now the Steelers are the leaders of the AFC North.
The Jacksonville Jaguars deserve more respect as the destroyed the Colts. Trevor Lawrence is also playing at an MVP level. The Dallas Cowboys lost yet another game they should have won. Who is to blame when it comes to their late game woes.
We’re breaking down who’s TRENDING UP, who’s TRENDING DOWN, and handing out our weekly GOOD BALL and BAD BALL awards. Tune in to hear what Chase Daniel has to say about this crazy NFL Week 8.
