3rd & Wrong

We recap a wild Week Three in under two minutes (yay us!) and dive into whether or not the Ravens are to be taken seriously as an elite contender despite their inability to show up on Monday Night Football.We then shift our focus to the COVID outbreak on the Tennessee Titans and question if the NFL has the proper procedures in place to manage this. Is the way the Seahawks are relying on Russell Wilson to win them games sustainable? We chat the Seahawks' recent struggles on defence this season. Also, Visor Nick Foles? It's a wrap everyone, give the Bears the Super Bowl because nobody is stopping BDN with his upgraded look.Is this Dwayne Haskins' last chance to make a good impression? The Washington Football Team square off against the equally inept New York Giants.
