Love Everybody
One of those pivot games for both 2-1 teams that very plausibly changes playoff seeding come January. I'll be posting up to date DVOA/DAVE rankings for each team as they come out in the next few hours. The Chiefs bye is right after this game, and a 3-1 start through 5 Justin Houstonless weeks sounds quite a bit better than 2-2, though the former seems optimistic on paper.
Dee Ford's hand apparently was injured during the game on Sunday. LDT may or may not be ready to start this week, and if he does, does he repeat week 1's solid performance? Gaines tweaked his knee, but I haven't seen anything that wasn't there last week so we will see. The elephant in the room injury wise is will this be the game Charles makes his return, or will we have to wait until the Chiefs travel to the Black Hole?
This should be a great test for the whole secondary really and should tell us more about the sustainability of Nelson and Gaines' (White?) relative success last week vs another talented receiving corp that features Antonio Brown. Bell should also be back so the run defense will be again tested after Lamar Miller and Matt Forte back to back.
