The Cincinnati Ben-Gals publish some of the most interesting photo galleries of all the NFL squads.  There’s the usual game day photos, sidelines shots and quarter break performances…those standard images that we all love.  But the Ben-Gals also post many behind the scenes photos that allow us a glimpse into the secret life of an NFL cheerleader.

So, let’s take a look a this week’s images.  Click here to see the Ben-Gals game day gallery.

Last week there were a number of very close games in the NFL.  This week, not so much, but one that was close was the game between the New York Giants and the Carolina Panthers.  Odell Beckham Jr. returned to his old self, catching 8 passes for 131 yards and one TD.  He even threw a pass for a TD to Saquon Barkley.  Cam Newton was his old self, throwing two TDs and two picks.  In one of the defining moments of the game, Newton threw a crushing block to help Christian McCaffrey/DJ Moore bust a run for a big gain.  All things considered, it was a rather even affair that came down to a last second field goal by Graham Gano.  Panthers win, 33 – 31.

With the recap out of the way, let’s turn our attention to the Carolina TopCats, who also had a nice game.  Click here to view the TopCats images from the game.

In Week 5 of the NFL season, the Jacksonville Jaguars came to the state of Missouri to battle the Kansas City Chiefs and their young QB phenom, Patrick Mahomes.  This game would be a good test for the young signal caller as the Jaguars are a good team and feature the #1 defense in the NFL.

Well Mahomes acquitted himself well, spreading the ball around effectively and consistently moving the Chiefs into scoring range.  If he didn’t throw his usual allotment of three TDs, that’s understandable because the Jaguars have been fairly stout on defense this year.  But in the end, the Chiefs showed why they are leading the AFC, prevailing 30 – 14.

Judging by the photos, it looks like there was some moist weather in K.C. but that apparently didn’t stop the Kansas City Chiefs Cheerleaders from having a good time.  Click here to view the Chiefs game day gallery.

The Denver Broncos game against the Kansas City Chiefs was another close one between division rivals, continuing an ongoing theme in the NFL for Week 4.  The Broncos stormed out to a 10 point fourth quarter lead on the basis of a strong running game.  Touchdowns by Philip Lindsay and Royce Freeman paced the Broncos and QB Case Keenum was efficient if unspectacular.

But in the fourth quarter, Kansas City came alive on the play of wunderkind QB Pat Mahomes and stalwart RB Kareem Hunt, who were instrumental in scoring 14 points to led the Chiefs to victory.  Final score: Kansas City – 27, Denver  23.

This week, the Denver Broncos Cheerleaders donned their western chapped themed uniforms for this Monday Night Football game.  That is certainly an interesting and unique look.  Click here to view the Broncos game day gallery.

Week 4 saw the Seattle Seahawks battle their division rival, the Arizona Cardinals, in a important game for the heart and soul of each team.  It is unlikely that anyone in the division will overtake the Los Angeles Rams; they are the class of the conference and will most likely be the only team from the NFC West to make it to the playoffs.  For the remaining teams, what’s at stake is their future development in becoming playoff relevant. 

The Seahawks were contenders as recently as two years ago, but the roster of talented players has turned over and have gutted the once formidable Super Bowl particpant.  As for the Arizona Cardinals, well they are in full rebuild mode with a new coaching staff and a new rookie starting quarterback, so for them this game is one small step to becoming the team they hope they can be…but that will be a long journey.

Once again, this game was a very close one…an exciting contest that came down to a last second field goal to decide it.  Unfortunately for the home town fans, the team that scored the winning kick was the Seattle Seahawks, but Cardinals fans should be encouraged because their first time starting rookie quarterback Josh Rosen acquitted himself well.

So on to the photographs of the Arizona Cardinals Cheerleaders.  The Cardinals posted a nice gallery of images from game day.  Click here to view the gallery.
