NFL Week 14 takeaways: A red flag for Bills defense? Should Falcons bench Cousins for Penix?
New York TimesWeek 14’s Sunday action brought a continuation of a few recent trends: The Panthers pushed another contender to the limit, the Jets continued to falter late, and Kirk Cousins struggled badly. Nguyen: The Seahawks are playing much better and their defense has made some huge improvements since acquiring Ernest Jones, but it’s hard to argue that they’re better than the Vikings or Packers, who have been consistently good all year. Macdonald’s defense is going to give teams fits but I don’t think their offense can score consistently enough for me to feel better about them than I do about the Vikings or Packers. Kevin O’Connell runs the same system Rodgers won two MVPs playing in with Green Bay, and it’s one of the best environments any quarterback could go into.
