DAZEROADIECI Week in Review: Week 11

DAZEROADIECI is the podcast curated by Touchdown Magazine which traces, in a number of themes always between zero and ten, the highlights of the NFL week just passed.

In this textual space we want present the topics addressed in audio formatso as to give everyone the opportunity to have some preview of what they will be able to listen to, in more depth, by conveniently downloading the listenable content. As for the Week 11we have selected the following ideas:

1. I Green Bay Packers they have the upper hand in heartfelt challenge against the Chicago Bears. For the eleventh time in a row. The match is very balanced and is resolved only at the end, thanks to a FG blocked by the Packers’ special teamwhich could have given the victory to Chicago. Thomas Brianjust named offensive coordinator in the windy cityemphasizes the runs and Caleb Williams’ game gains from it, appearing cleaner and tidier than usual.

2. I Buffalo Bills they find the fourth consecutive victoryin regular season, contro i Kansas City Chiefsthe franchise that always beats them in the playoffs. Josh Allen is meant with Amari Cooper e Khalil Shakir and, when KC’s defense takes away his receivers, he goes on his own and runs on his legs. For Patrick Mahomes and his is about the first defeat of the seasonbut we had been waiting for it for a few weeks, given how they had been playing recently.

3. The rivalry between Pittsburgh Steelers e Baltimore Ravens it always turns into defensive showdowns, this is also the case in this first match of 2024. I 18 points by the Steelerswho are worth the victory, arrive all from Chris Boswell’s FG. Lamar Jackson and his people make a lot of mistakes in the worst offensive performance of their seasonbut credit must be given to the strong home defense. We just have to wait for the rematch and hope that it is just as tight.

4. Geno Smithathletic veteran, comeback i San Francisco 49ers and gives his team a victory Seattle Seahawksaway from home against the Californians. In a balanced match marked by the usual injuries, San Fran proves it’s no longer big brother of a division that promises to be fought to the end, and not dominated by the roster of Kyle Shanahanas one might have initially suspected. The Superbowl Hangover it’s real.

5. Cooper Rush it appears more precise and Kevontae Turpin find a long TD run from 64 yardsbut the Houston Texans they walk anyway Dallas Cowboysa team that at the moment does not seem to have any solution available. If you lack the starting QB and ask Rush to pass 55 times it means you don’t have clear ideas. And even if the Texans no longer seem like the steamroller we expected at the beginning of the season, they certainly have no difficulty against a franchise that performs at these levels. The near future looks really bad per i Cowboys.
