NFL Week 2 Essentials
By Tony Mejia
The more things change, the more they stay the same. Among the vast array of visuals available in Week 1, we’ve found out J.J. Watt is still great even though his team isn’t, Tony Romo operates behind the best offensive line in football and Aaron Rodgers can make you look like an elite receiver with his ball placement. Let’s look ahead to Week 2:
Denver at Kansas City: The Broncos next offensive touchdown will be their first, so you know Peyton Manning is going to welcome a national stage to prove once again that he’s not done. Considering they held serve against an elite Baltimore defense and it was his first game in a new system where he’s not being asked to do as much, dismissing him as done may be a mistake. Still, this challenge won’t be easy. Manning is 11-1 in his career against the Chiefs, but considering how the defense swarmed Houston’s Brian Hoyer in the season opener, Denver’s offense will be up against it on a short week of preparation.
