NFL instant takeaway

OK, we normally add a reason or three about why each team is ranked where it currently sits. We are going to shorten that because Holy Minnie Pearl’s Hat, did you see that Monday Night Football game?

Buckets of Tin Foil and Tulips, it was every old-school moniker/cliche you can recall. Basketball on grass. Greatest show on dirt. Fast-break football.

And it was amazingly entertaining. (Unless of course you had a 30-point lead in fantasy football in a must-have game and your opponent – this time Wells Guthrie – had Tyreek Hill and his 38-plus fantasy points. Still, it was amazing entertainment.)

We’re here this morning, robbing from the rankings to make a few points and ask one serious question about it.
