In all likelihood, the NFL‘s top teams have been experiencing some slack for the past few weeks.
This is at least the opinion of the football expert of the TVA Sports network Denis Casavant, who made this observation in the most recent podcast “Du champ gauche”.
“It seems there is a relaxation and less attention to detail, analyzed the journalist. The concentration in training may not be there. When you start your season strong, everyone is motivated and wants to get off to a good start. There, we arrive at the time of the year when we realize that there is still a lot of football to be played.
“There is a slack in the teams that had a good start to the season and are currently at the top of their section.”
To support his arguments, Casavant returns in particular to embarrassing defeats suffered by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Buffalo Bills and the Dallas Cowboys.
Impressed by the “Pats”
Conversely, Casavant said he was frankly impressed with the comeback of the New England Patriots.
Last Sunday, head coach Bill Belichick’s team outscored the Cleveland Browns 45-7 for their fourth straight win. The outfit of the young quarterback Mac Jones has also caught the attention of Casavant.
“Obviously, Mac Jones doesn’t regularly get 350 or 400 yards, but he gets the wins. That is the most important!”
The host also compared the performance of the pivot of the “Pats” with that of the other quarterbacks selected in the first round of the last draft of the NFL.
“The first four centers drafted have a combined record of five wins and 18 losses. Meanwhile, Mac Jones has six wins and four losses.
-Casavant also talked about Cam Newton’s victorious return to the Carolina Panthers and also discussed the victory of the University of Montreal Carabins over the Laval University Rouge et Or at the Dunsmore Cup.
