1. Week 3 Takeaways
-Me: Watching Justin Tucker’s historic 66-yard field goal at the gun reminded me that it’s time for the Pro Football Hall of Fame Board of Selectors to put more specialists in these next several years
-Hal: 2020 Josh Allen is back, Derek Carr continues to dominate, Aaron Rodgers back to normal, surprising upsets, et al
2. Truth or Exaggeration
-Ben Roethlisberger is literally finished and the Steelers should consider benching him if their offense continues to sputter
-Nobody is playing better football than the Los Angeles Rams right now
-If the Chiefs do not beat the Eagles in dominating fashion this week, it will be THE reddest of red flags
-Matt Nagy is the biggest impediment to the development of Justin Fields
-The Buffalo Bills are in prime position to nab the AFC’s #1 playoff seed
-If the Seahawks lose to the 49ers on Sunday, they will NOT make the playoffs
-If it wasn’t for two plays, Kirk Cousins would be squarely in the MVP conversation right now
-The Dallas Cowboys are clear favorites to win the NFC East in 2021
