NFL Scores and Reactions for Week 8, 2020
Scores for Week 8 of the NFL Season.
Reaction: Dalvin Cook is still running right now against the Packers. You’d think that the Packers would’ve sold out on the run after Dalvin Cook used and abused them carry after carry, but NOPE. Talk about having a day. Cook had 32 touches for 226 yards and 4 touchdowns. Kirk Cousins attempted only 14 passes. Just a crazy game. I did not expect the Packers to lay this big of an egg. I am starting to think they are overrated. You don’t lose to the Vikings and suddenly gain my respect. Big game for the Packers this Thursday against the brittle 49ers. Lose this one, and then you are in serious trouble. As for the Vikings, this was a great win and despite a bad season thus far, it always feels good to beat your division rivals.
Reaction: While I didn’t expect the Bengals to win, I have been saying week in and week out that the Bengals aren’t terrible. Joe Burrow has looked awesome thus far and they have been competitive in the majority of their games. As for the Titans, something seems off with them. They have yet to play a full 4 quarters of football (besides their game against the Bills earlier this season). Every game is close, regardless of the opponent. The Titans will make the playoffs this year, but it’ll be fun to watch them the rest of the year. Hopefully they can figure it out on the defensive side of the ball. The trade for Desmond King will certainly help that unit.
