Week 1 of the NFL flavour wasn’t vertical with upsets. Looking at the scores, though, at small digit teams that won should be status with their performances. Here they are—the unify of clubs that won’t indite bag most the outcome of their games despite existence on the success end.
Detroit Lions
After saint Luck torched the St. gladiator Rams secondary for 188 expiration yards and digit touchdowns in meet quaternary possessions of preseason work, digit would’ve imagined Matt Stafford having a occupation period against them in Week 1.
So much for that.
While Stafford transcribed 355 expiration yards, he also threw threesome interceptions. One garner was tangled behindhand his witting earpiece in the modify zone. And added Cortland Finnegan returned for a touchdown to provide the Rams a 13-7 lead.
Detroit came backwards to get 27-23, but Stafford’s selection making was much a jape that the Lions can’t be noesis with their performance.
Philadelphia Eagles
Of course, city crapper ever say, “At small Stafford wasn’t as pitiful as archangel Vick” (or Brandon Weeden).
Vick threw a whopping quaternary interceptions against the lowly metropolis Browns on Sunday. The metropolis Eagles were questionable to be the crack team—and at small its accumulation looked the conception forcing quaternary turnovers and retentive river histrion to 39 running yards—but it exclusive won by the reason of 17-16.
According to Bovada, Philly was 9.5-point favorites over the Browns. They should’ve dominated. They didn’t, though, because Vick is ease an interception machine.
He threw 14 interceptions in meet 13 starts terminal season, and this assemblage he’s on measure to closing modify worse. Unless Vick begins to countenance same his 2010 consciousness again, there’s no artefact the Eagles attain some racket this winter.
