MY BELOVED COWBOYS GOT BEAT BY THE LIONS TODAY!
So going into NFL week 4 there were only 3 teams in the League that were 3-0. They were the Green Bay Packers (Superbowl champions), the Buffalo Bills, and the Detroit Lions. At first I was a little skeptical of a couple teams on that list, but one proved themselves today, because 2 teams are now still undefeated. Here's how it happened:
The Packers clearly did not have enough after winning the Superbowl last year, because they have came out super strong these first 4 weeks. Today the played the Denver Broncos, which was really no match for Green Bay. The Packers racked up the points to a 49-23 finish. I think that alot of their success has to do with Aaron Rodgers. In the game today, he threw for over 400 yards with 3 touchdowns, and ran the ball in for 2 more touchdowns! Rogers had his career best game today, and it looks like he isn't going to be stopped anytime soon. The Packers play the Atlanta Falcons coming up, so we will see what happens in the future.
When I realized the Bills were 3-0 I was in shock to be honest. In past years they haven't been so great but already this year the had 2 good comebacks against the Raiders and the Patriots. Now today, their good fortune has ran out because they lost to the Cincinnati Bengals. They started out with a 17-3 lead, but I guess they are better when coming from behind.
This win is the most bitter of the wins to talk about this week. Going into this game, the Lions were 3-0 but they hadn't really beat the best teams in the league. They won against the 0-3 Chiefs, the 0-3 Vikings, and the Buccaneers, so it wasn't the most glorious. I thought for sure the Cowboys had the game wrapped up, because the Lions were down 17 points at halftime! They had a comeback with 2 defensive scores, because Tony Romo threw 2 picks. Dallas ended up losing by 4 and the Lions are still 4-0. They are the comeback kids of football right now so lets see if they can keep it up.
