Chiefs are the last undefeated team; in the past 10 years the last undefeated team never won the Super Bowl. NFC North is now 19-6 (17-4 excluding divisional games). New York Jets are 0-2 since firing Robert Saleh; Aaron Rodgers hasn't thrown for 300+ yards in 1,043 days; Rodgers is on pace to have 17 INTs: most of his career in a season; points scored through 7 games - 2023 Jets: 126; 2024 Jets: 128. In the last 7 days Davante Adams lost to the Steelers, got traded to a new team, then lost to the Steelers. Patrick Mahomes now has more INTs (8) than passing TDs (6); Mahomes is now 10-4 outright in games he enters as the underdog; he’s 12-1-1 in those games against the spread. Kyle Shanahan drops to 0-5 against Andy Reid's Chiefs. Since Brian Flores joined the Vikings, his defense has only allowed 30 points four times in 23 games. Three of those 30-point games belong to the Lions. Hassan Reddick’s holdout nets him $0 more than he was scheduled and the Jets agree to give him a $12M bonus to cover up the mandatory fines in the CBA, even though they are also paying for games he sat out. Steelers finished the game with 31 unanswered points, the most for them since 2016 (36 pts vs Chiefs, 2016); Chris Boswell has scored 64 points whereas the rest of the Steelers combined have scored 66 points. Matt Stafford is the 20th QB in history to win 100 games. Jalen Hurts two rushing TDs moves him (45) past Steve Young (43) for 3rd most rushing TDs by a QB in history; only Cam Newton (75) and Josh Allen (56) have more. Packers P Daniel Whelan punted five times today for 284 yards, a 56.8-yard gross average which is the best in team history since 1945. Players with more passing TDs than Daniel Jones (0) at MetLife Stadium since the start of last season: Zach Wilson (6), Aaron Rodgers (4), Tyrod Taylor (4), Josh Allen (3), Jalen Hurts (2), Dak Prescott (2), and 14 more QBs. Lions are 5-1 in consecutive seasons for the first time since they moved to Detroit in 1934; the last time the Lions beat a team that as 5-0 was 50 years ago which was also the Vikings. Panthers were down 17-0 in the 2nd quarter: the 4th time they’ve been down that much in the 1st half this year. Only two QBs have 500+ passing yards and 5+ passing TDs through two career starts: Dan Marino and Drake Maye. Keon Coleman is the first Bills WR to eclipse 100 receiving yards this season. Over the last 4 games, Jameis Winston and Deshaun Watson are tied for 3rd down conversion passes: Jameis entered Week 7 for the first time all season with 4 minutes left in the game. Derrick Henry has four runs over 80+ yards, most all time. Lamar Jackson is 6-2 on MNF with 20 passing TDs and 0 INTs. Only four players have achieved 100 career TD catches faster than Mike Evans: Jerry Rice, Randy Moss, Terrell Owens, and Marvin Harrison Sr. Ravens are averaging more yard per play (7.2) than any offense has averaged in a single season since 2000 (Rams, 7.0). Stranded “Ten years!” he says. She reaches over, unzips a waterproof pocket on her left sleeve and pulls out a pack of fresh cigarettes. He takes one, lights it, takes a long drag and says, “Man, oh man! Is that good!” Then she asked, “How long has it been since you’ve had a drink of whiskey?” He replies, “Ten years!” She reaches over, unzips her waterproof pocket on her right sleeve, pulls out a flask and gives it to him. He takes a long swig and says, “Wow, that’s fantastic!” Then she starts unzipping a longer zipper that runs down the front of her wet suit and she says to him, “And how long has it been since you’ve had some real fun?" And the man replies, “Wow! Don’t tell me that you’ve got golf clubs in there?”  Chopped Cheese Sliders How about a chopped cheese slider with all the flavor of a hamburger – just without the patty. Seasoned ground beef is cooked on the griddle and topped with cheese. I suggest serving them on King's Hawaiian original rolls with your favorite toppings and condiments. Ingredients 1.5 lbs. ground beef 1/2 cup American cheese 1 tomato 1/2 cup shredded iceberg lettuce 1/2 lb. julienned white onion 1 Stick Butter Burger Seasoning/Rub of Your Choice 1 pack King's Hawaiian Original Rolls Preheat the griddle to medium heat. Once the griddle has warmed up, add butter to the cooktop and sauté the onions until translucent, not caramelized. Season the ground beef with your favorite seasoning and add to the griddle, breaking it up as it cooks. Once the onions and beef are fully cooked, build the sliders by placing the bottom half of the slider buns into an aluminum pan. Layer on the ground beef, American cheese, lettuce, and tomato. Top with the other half of the buns, cut along the edges of the rolls to create sliders, and enjoy! |
