What went down/news:
-BREAKING NEWS: 49ers trade a 2nd round pick to the Patriots for QB Jimmy Garopollo, details on my post about the trade
-Ravens destroy Dolphins without Jay Cutler, Joe Flacco goes down in the win
-Vikings win London game, lead by Case Keenum. Browns fall to 0-8 but DeShone Kizer played ok
-Bills stay undefeated at home, beat Raiders who keep falling
-Bengals barely win in shootout of terrible teams. Joe Mixon has a decent game
-Patriots win lopsided affair, Chargers come close in the end to coming back. Chris Hogan injured
-Saints win 5th game in a row, stay on top of their division. Bears TE Zach Miller out for the season with leg injury in game.
-Falcons come back in WET game, Jets lose despite Robby Anderson's good game
-Eagles win ANOTHER one, move to 7-1 as 49ers fall to 0-8 and struggles continue. Eagles keep best record in the NFL
-Panthers beat flailing Bucs as Julius Peppers becomes 4th all-time sacks
-Seahawks barely beat out Texans in high scoring shootout. Russell Wilson plays great and so does Deshaun Watson against best D he's played yet. DeAndre Hopkins goes off for Texans
-Cowboys win another one, as Ezekiel Elliott stars. Will he play next week?
-Steelers win close game as Juju Smith-Schuester has great game. Scores longest receiving TD in Steelers history!
-Seahawks traded CB Jeremy Lane for Texans elite OT Duane Brown. The Seahawks were in huge need of an O-lineman and this could really help. A funny coincidence that the Hawks played Texans on Sunday, Brown is coming back to Seattle after only a day away
-Chiefs demolish struggling Broncos as their D comes up big forcing lots of turnovers
-Ezekiel Elliott 6 game suspension back on, will be suspended until week 14, can play week 15

Thanks for reading!
