MNF doubleheader closes out Week 2 in the NFL.
By Adam Zielonka For FrontPageBets Week 1 of the NFL season concluded with the Seattle Seahawks’ captivating victory over Russell Wilson and the Denver Broncos on Monday Night Football. This week, football fans get two games in the only Monday night doubleheader of the season.
Bills There was one dominant team on the field when the NFL season kicked off at SoFi Stadium on Sept. 8. The defending Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams paled in comparison to everyone’s favorite pick this year, as Josh Allen led the Bills to a 31-10 trouncing. But Henry and Tannehill looked pretty average in their Week 1 loss to the New York Giants, the Buffalo defense has only improved, and Tennessee was the home team in its prior two wins -- playing in Buffalo these days is a different animal.Stefon Diggs’ longest reception over 23.5 yards Part of the reason the Giants were able to rally and beat the Titans last week was Sterling Shepard’s 65-yard touchdown on a blown coverage by cornerback Kristian Fulton.
Vikings Jalen Hurts had the Eagles’ offense humming in their 38-35 victory over the Detroit Lions. It’s the defense that’s going to need some work. Kirk Cousins used to be 0-9 on the Monday Night Football stage, but he’s shaken that off and won his last two Monday starts, both on the road. For all the jokes made at his expense, Cousins looks great when a high-powered offense surrounds him. Bet the Vikings, and consider the over at 50.5 points.
Week 1 showed no signs that Philadelphia would move away from a run-heavy attack. Four different players scored a rushing touchdown, including Hurts, who also led the team with four carries in the red zone.
