Week 4 Recap with Alex Bleuel


Week 4 Recap with Alex Bleuel


In this episode, Alex Bleuel and I debate Sunday Night's 72-point shootout between Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady, an overtime thriller between the New England Patriots and Green Bay Packers, our biggest surprises and disappointments, and a Tua rant.

First, we talk Chiefs-Bucs. Mahomes threw for 249 yards and three touchdowns. Travis Kelce caught nine passes for 92 yards and a touchdown. TB12 threw 52 times for 385 yards and three touchdowns.

We debate Patrick Mahomes' incredible skills, his incredible touchdown to Clyde Edwards-Helaire, and how he has played without Tyreek Hill. Then, we look at whether Tom Brady and the Bucs remain contenders in the NFC. While Alex is not as high, I still believe in TB12, but the Bucs offensive line needs help. We then turn to Lambeau Field, where the Packers beat the Patriots 23-20 in overtime. We also recap our bet that we mad eon this game. Alex took GB to cover the nearly 10-point spread. I took NE and the points. Bailey Zappe, who replaced Brian Hoyer, completed 10 of his 15 passes and one touchdown. Alex was impressed with the former Western Kentucky passer. Aaron Rodgers completed just 60 percent of his passes with two touchdowns and a bad Pick Six. Despite the win, we are both concerned with GB's lack of big plays and whether the Packers remain a top contender in the NFC. We then look at our biggest surprises and disappointments. Alex is surprised with the Philadelphia Eagles. I an surprised by Saquon Barkley and the NY Giants strong start. For our most disappointing team, I pick the 1-2-1 Colts, and Alex is surpsied by the whole AFC West outside of the Chiefs. Alex ends this episode with a memorable rant after a controversial week surrounding Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa injuries.
