Review: 

For many of our Bay Area lovers, this week was great for the 49ers as they got their winning mojo back along with Deebo Samuel and Trent Williams, as well as the newly signed Chase Young. Fans are excited to see how things go after breaking the team’s mid-season slump. Unfortunately, Christian McCaffrey’s record-breaking touchdown streak has ended, leaving the amazing running back tied for the record.

The Cowboys also had a great game this week, with Ceedee Lamb pulling incredible numbers, and displaying a successful team. The Cowboys are showing great strength, and with the 49ers as their rivals it will be fun to watch them face off again in the future, should they have the ability to.

The Raiders surprised everyone by their firing their head coach and benching Jimmy Garopollo, starting a completely new Quarterback and allowing their rookie time to train. Ultimately, the change appears to have benefited them earning the changed team their very own win.

The Lions and Chargers went head-to-head, both teams strong, but the Lions proved their might with their squeaked-out victory, setting them on track to place very high this season.

Finally, Bills fans were not happy with the standings as of Monday Night’s game. Coming down to the very last minute, a few flags right at the end of the game just allowed the Broncos to make a field goal, missed once before, however earning the Broncos victory. The score was close all game, with generally equal teams, but with the stronger running capabilities held by the Broncos, the Bills were not prepared for the game.

What this shows for Week 11:

Predictions:

Some potentially high-scoring games on the horizon will be the matchups: 

Cowboys vs Panthers

49ers vs Buccaneers

Dolphins vs Raiders

Lions vs Bears

However, with the current NFL script running rampant it is hard to say what will happen in any of these games. One clash will for sure stand out, that being the battle between the Chiefs and Eagles. Both of the teams have shown their competitive prowess and skills, and the winner of the coming game will likely set into motion the termination of the regular season. So set your clocks for 5:15 p.m. Monday to watch the mighty warricors duke it out.

There you have it, Week 10, the first step away from the season’s halfway point, and all of its excitement and wonder. This week brought lots of high-scoring wipeouts, inspiring victories, and surprising internal decisions.  Good luck to all the teams as we look forward to a great rest of the season! Tune in next week to watch Week 11 of the NFL.
