Titans lost Youth Calvin Ridley Jersey to the lowly Bills, 13-12. On Sunday, they smacked the Patriots, 34-10.The latter is by far the more surprising of the two. The Titans aren’t a team most would see on their schedule and mark it down as a big or tough game. And well, the Patriots are the Patriots. They’re the greatest dynasty the NFL has ever seen.The Patriots weren’t the Patriots on Sunday. Tom Brady looked human, completing just 21 of his 41 pass attempts for 254 yards and no touchdowns. When he’s not playing well, everything falls apart for New England because he makes everybody around him better.Marcus Mariota had a solid afternoon, completing 16 of 24 passes for 228 yards and two touchdowns. On the ground, Derrick Henry and former Patriot Dion Lewis combined for 115 yards, with Henry having a pair of touchdowns. We’ll get back to Lewis later.The Titans jumped out to a 14-3 lead midway through the first quarter, and never really looked back from there. But the Titans’ victory came some trolling, which made the win seem even stranger than it already was.Down 27-10, the Patriots ran a trick play where Julian Edelman (he used to play quarterback, did you know? OL) threw Brady a pass. Brady caught it, and fell to the ground like a child taking their first steps:The Patriots weren’t able to make anything of the drive. Less than a minute later, the Titans saw a good opportunity for a damn good troll job:It’s one thing to troll a team with a petty timeout, or some bait-y quote before or after a game. But the Titans brought the troll to the field, so very quickly after the Patriots ran the same play. That’s a supreme flex.You wouldn’t think a team would have the gall to do that against the Patriots. Though perhaps it’s not so surprising when you consider Titans head coach Mike Vrabel played for the Patriots under Belichick for years.Vrabel confirmed the the flex after the game:He’s not the only former Patriot who took a dig at his former team. Let’s revisit our friend Dion Lewis:For a pair of other former Patriots on the Titans Womens Robert Alford Jersey , it wasn’t that deep. Which isn’t nearly as fun, but to each his own:The Titans’ win is one of the weirdest we’ve seen this season. It’s probably a close second to the Bills running all over the Vikings in Week 3. It’s hard to imagine something topping that one.And come January, we’ll probably forget this even happened because once again, the Patriots are the Patriots.Let’s run through Week 10.The Falcons lost to the BrownsAs a Falcons fan, I would say typing the following is about to bring me pain. However, my soul went completely numb shortly after James White crossed the goal line in overtime of Super Bowl 51. Let us proceed.The Falcons went into Week 10 having won three games in a row after starting 1-4. The offense was clicking, and they made us think that a game like Sunday’s against the Browns could be one that they walk out of with a relatively chill win.The scenario, metaphorically drawn out (translated: here’s a meme, y’all)f course, the Browns still got some Brownsing in because Browns game isn’t complete without a stupid blunder or two.Baker Mayfield started the game 9 of 9 for 121 yards and a touchdown when the Browns decided the best possible play to run in the moment on a first-and-10 from the Falcons’ 34-yard line was this:Not even the Falcons would disregard the No. 1 overall pick’s hot start to let [checks notes] Dontrell Hilliard throw a pass in Week 10.Things stayed fine for the Browns though. Nick Chubb had 20 carries for 176 yards and a touchdown. His longest run was this 92-yard touchdown, which is the longest in Cleveland Browns’ history:The least shocking thing in the world is that the Falcons were the team to give up that run. The Falcons are a team that doesn’t just settle for doing things bad. The Falcons will do them the worst, like a blown Super Bowl lead.Let’s go to Matt Ryan for his reaction:Mhm, yep. And just when you think things for the Falcons can’t get worse after the whistle, buddy, THINGS GET WORSE:Combine that with Baker Mayfield waking up on the right side of the bed, and the Falcons were doomed from the start: We’ll do it again next week, Falcons fans. Prepare your drink of choice.The Saints honored Dez Bryant by throwing up hella XsThe Saints signed Dez Bryant going into Week 10, and had to quickly place him on injured reserve after he tore his Achilles. That’s an unfortunately quick turnaround Womens Ryan Schraeder Jersey , but Bryant clearly made his impact felt among the team.During the Saints’ 51-14 demolishing of the Bengals on Sunday, Mark Ingram, Alvin Kamara, and Michael Thomas all did Bryant’s signature “throw up the X” celebration:Ingram, along with other Saints had said they would do so during the week. Once Bryant saw them, he obviously appreciated the gestures on Twitter:Bryant never played a game for New Orleans, but for the Saints to show so much love for him after such a short time is telling of the immediate bond. The chances seemed high that Bryant’s tenure could be a short-term thing for the Saints, and that could still be the case.But the chance for the two to pair up in 2019 certainly isn’t out of the question. Sunday’s display of solidarity with Bryant might even suggest it’s likely.Speaking of the Bengals, There weren’t a lot of good things to discuss in regards to the Bengals on Sunday. But this stat Fox threw up on head coach Marvin Lewis is just funny:via imgurLewis is the NFL head coach who has nine lives, much like a cat (no pun intended). It seems like he’s been on the hot seat the past decade, and yet, he prospers.And for as good as the Bengals have been under him at home for 1 p.m. starts, the Steelers still have his number.At least they aren’t the Browns, I guess.Nick Chubb would prefer not to sit next to Bob WylieBob Wylie is one of the best characters in the NFL. He’s got a stomach that bounces like an exercise ball when he yells “hut!” and he doesn’t believe in stretching muscles. During the Falcons-Browns broadcast on Fox, a clip from earlier in the season was shown of Wylie telling Nick Chubb to sit down so they could chit-chat. Wylie ultimately ended up sitting next to the rookie running back.Chubb was not comfortable:Chubb certainly looks less than pleased here, when Wylie has popped a squat next to him:Personal space is important. Though I’d lowkey like to sit next to Bob Wylie and have a conversation, even if it wasn’t the most comfortable.Khalil Mack is still doing amazing thingsKhalil Mack is going to have some serious aging to do before he goes from this super-mega-beast of a football player to just Really Good. Even then, I imagine we’re still going to find most of what he does incredible.In the Bears’ 34-22 win over the Lions http://www.falconsfootballauthentics.com/julio-jones-jersey-authentic , Mack made Levine Toio and Taylor Decker look like small children on his way to this sack of Matthew Stafford:There’s just not a whole lot you can do about Mack when he gets a full head of steam like that. Condolences to Stafford.[Hurricane Chris voice] HALLE BERRRRAYYYYYYYYYYYYThe Rams have an audible that’s simply “Halle Berry” which appears to be a Jared Goff handoff to Todd Gurley:As you might imagine, Berry wanted some answers:Goff provided a very vague answer that left plenty of room for interpretation:We’ll leave it at that, but there are interesting replies from the Goff tweet. The Rams beat the Seahawks, 36-31, and are now 9-1 on the season.SCREAMQuenton Nelson had the pancake of the week against the Jaguars, and you’ll see the play below.More importantly, Nelson just decided to scream his ass off along the way, which certainly doesn’t hurt, and is kind of hilarious:That’s Barry Church on the receiving end of the scream and leveling. I would say I feel bad for the man, but Nelson let him know that he was coming with that howl.You kinda gotta be prepared when the siren is going off like that. The Colts beat the Jaguars, 29-26, and the AFC’s runner-up from 2017 is now 3-6.Your QB1 could neverThere’s not a whole lot to be said here except that Pat Mahomes is now emperor of the world in this Starter jacket:That’s some Big Drip from the rook. Mahomes didn’t have one of those stupid games where he makes his stats ooze out of the box score, but still completed 21 of his 28 passes for 249 yards and two touchdowns against the Cardinals in a 26-14 win. The job was done, and the sauce was displayed.They’re on to Los Angeles (Rams).A big weekend moodSee y’all next week.OTHER THINGS FROM WEEK 10 IN THE NFLThe Chargers and Raiders played, despite heavy smoke from wildfires. Christian D’Andrea goes over why the Patriots’ loss to the Titans shouldn’t be a big concern.The Buccaneers had 501 yards of offense. It resulted in THREE points.Derek Carr throwing the ball away on 4th down is all you need to know about his season.Andrew Whitworth donated his entire game check to victims of the Thousand Oaks shooting.Falcoholinks: All the Falcons news you need for Monday, Sept. 17 How are you feeling this morning, Falcons fans? Good? Yep — us as well. The Atlanta Falcons secured a home win over the division rival Carolina Panthers, and all is right to start the week. Speaking of starting the week: take a gander at below’s Falcoholinks for Monday. Matt Ryan’s elite evening Matt Ryan had an unequivocally awful game in Philadelphia last week www.atlantafalconsteamonline.com , but against Carolina he was absolutely lights out. Save for one pick and a couple of overthrows, Ryan looked as icey as ever, and in the win over the Panthers he did something only two other quarterbacks have ever done.Elite numbers for an elite player and an all around elite guy. It should come as no surprise, however, as Matt Ryan was reanimated Saturday afternoon and not even Steve Sarkisian’s hidden shanks of Valyrian Steel could slow him down. Damontae Kazee’s dumb, dangerous play Anyone who attempts to sugarcoat this is dealing in bad faith. Bottom line: Damontae Kazee’s late hit on Cam Newton was reckless, dangerous, and ridiculous when you consider the state of the Falcons’ defensive backfield entering this game. Not only did he nearly take Newton’s head off, he also put Atlanta in an extremely bad spot once he was rightfully ejected. Intent doesn’t matter. Thankfully Cam was able to return to the game after a brief exam in the tent, but don’t be surprised if Kazee is handed a suspension after this. Damontae’s aggression and physicality make him an asset on this team, but he must know when to dial it back going forward. Andy Levitre’s elbow ailment In a blow to the offensive line, left guard Andy Levitre left yesterday’s game with an elbow injury and would not return. Levitre was limited in practice this week with the same injury, so he aggravated it at some point against the Panthers. In a surprising — and welcome — turn of events, Wes Schweitzer filled in admirably in his stead, giving Matt Ryan plenty of time to engineer the offense. We’ll hope it’s something minor and Andy Levitre is back in short order. Dave Choate’s Sunday summary Need an abridged version of the Falcons’ victory over the Panthers? Dave’s got you. It was all mostly good, and Atlanta improves to 1-1 and looks to another divisional clash Sunday against the New Orleans Saints.
