Best and Worst Games so far this Football Season

My previous two posts have been a reflection on the most disappointing N-F-L teams and the most surprising N-F-L teams this season but with this post, I am taking a different approach. For this post, I will be giving my take on the best games this N-F-L season and the worst games this N-F-L season.

Let’s first start off with the worst games this N-F-L season and to start things off, let’s go into the week one matchup between the Indianapolis Colts and the Houston Texans. The reason why this matchup makes the list is due to the fact that it resulted in a tie and nobody won. Everyone that is a fan of the N-F-L or watches the N-F-L hates it when any game ends in a tie especially when both teams had ample opportunities to win the game. Even when you look back at this game, the Texans had complete control of this game having at one point at 20-to-3 lead entering the final quarter of action but they blew it and allowed the Colts to comeback and tie the game. The Colts even throughout this game lead the Texans in every stat during this game, whether it was total yards, passing yards, and rushing yards but somehow ended up only tying the game instead of winning a game that was easily winnable.

The next worst game that I want to include is quite possibly, one of the worst games in N-F-L history. That game that I will be discussing is the week five matchup between the Indianapolis Colts and the Denver Broncos. The final score for this possible worst game in N-F-L history was 12-9 with the Colts winning the game. This game was so bad, that not even a single touchdown was scored by either offenses. The only points that were scored in this game were scored by both field goal kickers respectfully. The game was also so bad that Broncos where leaving the game just before the overtime period began and to be honest with you, I have never in all of my years watching football have ever seen fans leave a game before an extra period of football was being played but that happened during this game. The only real bright spot that this game really had was showing how good both of these defenses where in shutting down Matt Ryan for the Colts and Russell Wilson for the Broncos.

Now that we have discussed the wort games this N-F-L season, let’s move into some of the best games that have occurred this N-F-L season. To start off with the best game that I saw this season has to be the week six matchup between the Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs. You look at the history of these two the last couple of years and it has been historic, especially in the playoffs when the Chiefs have eliminated the Bills in the playoffs for the last two consecutive years. This game featured back and forth dominate play by both quarterbacks Josh Allen for the Bills with three touchdowns and no interceptions and Patrick Mahomes with two touchdowns and two interceptions. While both offenses were tremendous during this game in Kansas City, the main difference was the Bills defense by interceptions Patrick Mahomes not once, but twice, the second interception winning the game for the Buffalo. The win for Buffalo has the potential to give them confidence whenever they play each other in January.

Now let’s discuss in my opinion, the greatest game so far this N-F-L season. The greatest game that has occurred this year has to be the week ten matchup between the Minnesota Vikings and the Buffalo Bills. This game had it all, whether it was clutch defensive stops, great quarterback play, and fantastic catches. This was a game that had a lot of marbles on the line. For Minnesota, this was a game right here to where they can prove that there 7 and 1 record is legit and for Buffalo, this a game to where they can keep pace with Kansas City for being the best team in AFC. The game ended up going into overtime with the Minnesota Vikings, pulling off the upset and beating the Bills in overtime coming back from down 27-to-10 to winning 33-to-30 in overtime making this win probably one of the biggest win in Vikings history. Also if you haven’t already, check out the Justin Jefferson fourth and eighteen catch, it will be the greatest catch that you will ever see.

Overall, this N-F-L season has had a lot of twist and turns. Whether it is certain N-F-L teams exceeding expectations or falling below expectations, or witnessing some of the N-F-L’s greatest games like the ones above and witnessing some of the worst games this N-F-L season as listed above. This N-F-L season has been one for the ages and will continue to get better, especially during the playoffs in January.
