For the first time this season, tiers between the good and bad teams finally showed after five weeks of unpredictable outcomes.
with several favorites dominating Sunday. Perhaps for the first time this season, tiers between the good and bad teams finally showed after five weeks of unpredictable outcomes.
It wouldn’t be wild to say the Ravens and the Lions are two best teams in their respective conferences. But the San Francisco 49ers and Chiefs definitely disagree—those two teams will clash in a Super Bowl rematch in Week 7. And don’t overlook the undefeated Minnesota Vikings, who were on a bye week.
With the Lions, it’s obvious they’re an elite team, especially on offense. Quarterback Jared Goff has regained his top form from last season, including a perfect game against the Seattle Seahawks. On Sunday, he completed 18-of-25 passes for 315 yards, three touchdowns and no turnovers. Detroit’s offense might be even better than last year with Jameson Williams contributing regularly.
Herbert, the star quarterback making $52.5 million annually, did more than just hand the ball off to running backs and deliver safe throws, two things that occurred often in the first four games of the season. On Sunday, Herbert had more than 30 passing attempts for the first time in a game this season. He was 21-of-34 for a season-high 237 passing yards, and had a 38-yard touchdown throw to rookie running back Kimani Vidal.
The Commanders are a year ahead of schedule, but they’re not to the point where they can beat legit Super Bowl contenders. The Ravens were a few steps ahead in every phase and had answers each time Jayden Daniels orchestrated a scoring drive. Ravens defensive coordinator Zach Orr delivered an impressive game plan to contain Washington’s rushing attack and limit Daniels’s downfield shots. The Commanders recorded 305 total yards, including only 52 rushing yards.
Those September takes look silly now with Caleb Williams torching opponents the past two weeks and seems to be getting better every week. The Bears recorded their third consecutive victory after Williams picked apart the reeling Jacksonville Jaguars in a 35–16 rout in London.
