Week 2 top dogs & down and out teams
By Josh Olson
Top Dogs
Miami Dolphins - Another victory for Miami in their week two matchup, as they fought hard for their victory against the Baltimore Ravens. Tua and the offence came from behind to beat the Ravens 42-38. Going into the fourth quarter down 35-14, the Dolphins were able to put up 28 points to the Ravens 3 and rally the comeback. The Dolphins are now 2-0 and take on the Buffalo Bills next week in a showdown for first place in the division.
Jacksonville Jaguars - After the Jaguars lost to the Commanders 28-22, they opened their home schedule against the Indianapolis Colts where they put up 24 to shut out their divisional opponent. A huge statement win for them and they now travel to Los Angeles to play the Chargers in week three.
New York Giants - Don't look now but the Giants are undefeated in Brian Daboll's coaching career. Daboll has his team playing hard and Saquon Barkley is leading the charge as he looks like he's back to form. The Giants are tied for first in their division with the Eagles and will be playing their divisional rival, the Cowboys in week three.
Down and Out
Tennessee Titans – It’s a young season, but the team that was number one in the conference a year ago suffered off-season turmoil and are now being 0-2to start the season. They got destroyed on Monday Night Football against the Bills and are now looking forward to their week three matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Indianapolis Colts - Who would have thought that Carson Wentz wasn't the problem? The Colts hoped to take the division by storm when they got Matt Ryan as their quarterback but are sitting at 0-1-1in this young season. A tie with the Texans and a humiliating loss to the Jaguars where they put up zero points is not a good look. They will have a hard battle ahead of them when they take on Kansas City Chiefs in week three.
Denver Broncos - You’re probably asking how a team that won in week two is on the “down and out” list... When you add a quarterback like Russell Wilson in the off-season, you have the mindset that he's going to hopefully lift the offence. Unfortunately, the Broncos loss to Seattle in week one and just barely getting past the Texans in week 2 is a concern. Their 0-6 in the red zone stat thus far isn’t something to talk about either. Hopefully they can turn things around in the next matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.
