Episode Notes

What does a football show have to do to get an exciting Sunday around here? Despite the slate of blowouts and correct predictions, some wins were more legit than others. Is the Philadelphia Eagles offense for real or did they just play a hobbled opponent? Does the Baltimore Ravens win say more about their playoff chances or about the Chicago Bears flaws? And did the Dallas Cowboys loss to the Denver Broncos solidify their presence on the sellers market at the trade deadline, despite Dak Prescott's MVP-worthy season? Robert Mays, Derrik Klassen and Dave Helman recap the best and worst of Week 8 Sunday in this recap episode of The Athletic Football Show.
