So, I slept. When I woke it was Waiver Wednesday!
My jet lag from several days of consecutive flights across the country reminded me of how difficult it can be for a team to travel. That showed in the Giants game. That is a team that needed a break. Most take the bye after a trip overseas. They didn’t and it cost them in the long run. This bye will reset the balance, and they get to reload with all of the people they started this thing with… except Joka. He’s in KC about to try to rewrite his narrative. Hopefully he will. Good luck to him.
Miami is still at work rewriting their narrative. A flurry of trades Tuesday means a rocked up Dolphins squad is ready to beat up on the Bears. Yeah, it will happen. So will PHI over HOU and LAC over ATL, and SEA over AZ. The rest of the matchups don’t feel that easy to me. I want to say Cincy has a win in them, but they looked terrible on Monday night. Las Vegas is another squad that should be good, but struggles. I will say this: Vegas has a coach who cannot win games. He is 12-20 as a head coach. Daboll is 6-2 with a team that lacks half the talent! He isn’t good. So, I see more losses in the Raider’s future.
I’m going to give NE the benefit of the doubt this week and say they win. I won’t say the same for Buffalo. They might fall into the NY trap and get beat.
