Summary
Week 10 Sunday was full of lopsided games, as the second half of the season started with a handful of teams separating themselves from the pack.
First, the Chiefs blowout win in Vegas, in which Patrick Mahomes and K.C. looked like themselves for the first time in quite a while. Have the Chiefs gotten right, or were Mahomes’s handful of erratic decisions still cause for concern? And is this the real Raiders after all?
Then, a look at the much-anticipated Rodgers vs. Russ matchup that didn’t live up to its billing in Lambeau, how the Patriots got on their climb toward the AFC’s elite, and whether it’s time to jump off the Browns bandwagon (again).
Plus, the return of Cam and long-term outlook for the Panthers, what’s going wrong with the Bucs, the Dan Quinn revenge game as the Cowboys blow out the Falcons, the baffling path to victory the Titans have taken the past two weeks, the sadness of the Steelers-Lions tie, and much more!

| 0:11.0 | And it was a week 10 Sunday full of blowouts. Lots of lopsided games but very interesting |
| 0:17.8 | narratives coming out of those games perhaps. And we were going to start with one of those blowout |
| 0:22.4 | games. |
| 0:22.8 | That was Sunday nighter. |
| 0:24.4 | Chiefs go into Las Vegas in what was going to be a game to decide control currently of the |
| 0:30.9 | AFC West and completely blow out a radar scene that frankly has played |
| 0:35.3 | them pretty close the last couple of meetings here. |
| 0:39.2 | But yeah, chiefs end up, I don't know, getting right to an extent it at least it seems like. |
| 0:47.6 | Yeah was the offensive explosion that we had come accustomed to from the Chiefs, but hadn't seen much of this season. |
| 0:57.7 | Now some of the plays that the Chiefs made were of a similar reckless variety that in previous weeks ended up being |
| 1:05.7 | interceptions and this week ended up being amazing touchdowns so it sort of |
| 1:10.7 | shows you the line between good and bad in the NFL, but certainly they looked |
| 1:17.6 | like a team that was playing more confidently and that could get guys open and that could complete some of those deep passes that they've just been off on all season long. |
| 1:29.0 | You know it's weird to me though is that we consider it a's game when like Patrick Mahomes throws for |
| 1:35.0 | 400 yards and five touchdowns when it's just I think we're continuously |
| 1:40.4 | reassuring ourselves of something that is not replicable over the long term, right? |
| 1:44.7 | Patrick Mahomes cannot play like this over a long period of time, like over 10, over the life of this |
