It really was a series of weird games in Week 5—lots of sloppy offense but somehow lots of big plays in between. Conor and Gary break it all down, starting with the Bengals’ continued struggles, this time in Baltimore. How much of it was the absence of Tee Higgins? How much of it was a vastly different approach from first-year Ravens defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald? And how much of it was the Bengals simply coming back down the earth with an offense that asks so much of its quarterback?
Then, a discussion of the Cooper Rush–led Cowboys and their quite Cooper Rush–less victory over the Rams, the magic of Abracadaniel in London, bad Josh Allen takes, the continued ascension of the Eagles, and for the love of God do *not* get off the Jaguars bandwagon!
