NFL Sunday Means A Few Surprise Upsets

That’s why you play the game. It’s the oldest adage in
sports. In the NFL, any given Sunday means your team can beat even the top
teams in the league. It was proved on Sunday as the Arizona Cardinals
defeated the New Orleans Saints, the New York Giants downed the Houston
Texans and the Oakland Raiders downed the San Diego Chargers. There was a
myriad of reasons why the favored team win, but mostly because they didn’t
perform while the other team did what it needed to win.
The Raiders ended a 13 game losing street against the Raiders on Sunday,
winning 35-27. It took every bounce for the Raiders to win. They blocked two
Chargers punts and scored a touchdown late on a fumble recovery to put the
game on ice. It was an impressive performance as the Chargers lost their
third road game this season. Jason Campbell spelled an injured Bruce
Gradowski and had a quality game, throwing for 159 yards and one touchdown.
Philip Rivers threw for 431 yards and two TDs in the losing effort.
The Cardinals helped undrafted rookie QB Max Hall by scoring three defensive
touchdowns in a 30-20 win over the defending Super Bowl champions. Hall
completed 17 passes for 168 yards, throwing an interception that led to a
Saints field goal. The credit for the win goes to the impressive performance
of the Cardinals defense. They intercepted Drew Brees three times and scored
three TDs, two fumble recovery TDs and an interception return for a score by
Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie to finish off the Saints.
The NFL is the greatest league in professional sports because any team can
win on any given Sunday. The outcomes are never predetermined and on the
best day, a team can win against any competition. It’s what makes the NFL
truly great. The Cardinals are alone in first place in the NFC West. The
Raiders are tied with Denver and San Diego for second place behind the
Kansas City Chiefs. It’s the NFL, anything’s possible and that’s why they
play the game.
