Just a few short years ago, the Dallas Cowboys and the Seattle Seahawks were among the better teams in the NFL.  They were both perennial playoff contenders and the Seahawks even went to two Super Bowls, winning in 2013.  But this isn’t 2013 and in 2018, both teams came into this game struggling to maintain relevance in this new era of NFL football.

In a game that matched up two former glamor teams, the Seahawks prevailed 24 – 13.  It was a game that left many unanswered questions and those questions that were answered…well, let’s just say that maintaining excellence is difficult in the hard salary cap era. 

So let’s turn our attention to something more positive…the Seattle Sea Gals!  Click here to view their game day gallery of images.

It’s rebuilding time in the Valley of the Sun.  Last week’s game against the Chicago Bears was a watershed moment for the Cardinals as QB Sam Bradford’s continued ineffectiveness led to his benching and the debut of talented rookie signal caller Josh Rosen.  With the game on the line, Rosen showed that he was not ready for prime time as the two series that he helmed went for naught and the Cardinals lost their third consecutive game to start the season. 

Here’s a telling statistic: the Cardinals have only had two red zone opportunities this entire season.  Well, this was supposed to be a season of change with new head coach, new offense, and a new starting quarterback. 

Be patient Cardinals fans, good things are on the horizon…until then, be content in knowing that you still have the Arizona Cardinals Cheerleaders to keep your spirits up.  For you fans that weren’t in attendance, click here to view the Cardinals game day gallery.

Monday Night Football is always special.  Games have an importance greater than the actual match up itself because it is played before a national television audience and the night is usually electric at the stadium.  And if the game is competitive, well then you have TV magic.

This past Monday, the flailing Pittsburgh Steelers made the trek to central Florida to battle the undefeated Tampa Bay Buccaneers.  The Steelers took a 20 point lead into halftime, but then surrendered 17 unanswered points to the Buccaneers in the second half.  Fortunately for the Steelers, time ran out before Ryan “Fitzmagic” could complete the miracle comeback.  Final score: Steelers 30 – Buccaneers – 27.

So let’s turn our attention to the wonderful Tampa Bay Buccaneers Cheerleaders.  Click here to see the Buccaneers’ game day gallery of images.

In Week 3, the Los Angeles Chargers played the Los Angeles Rams in the Battle for L.A. and in this contest, the Rams were victorious.  Both teams have have good offenses and good defenses, but the Rams have a top 4 rated offense and a top 4 rated defense and that was the difference in this match up.  Rams win 35 – 23. 

So let’s take a look at this weeks images from the L.A. Coliseum and click here to view the Rams Cheerleaders game day gallery.

 

The Minnesota Vikings were one of the preseason favorites to make it to the Super Bowl and coming into Week 3, they were a 16.5 point prohibitive favorite to defeat the lowly Buffalo Bills.  But on any given day, any team can beat any other team and that was never more true than this past weekend when the Bills shocked the NFL world by decisively beating the Vikings, 27 – 6.   I guess that’s why they play the game.  So many people thought this was going to be a one sided affair…it was, in favor of the Buffalo Bills.

Well there is one thing that the Vikings have a decisive advantage of their own…they have cheerleaders!  So let’s take a closer look at the Minnesota Vikings Cheerleaders.  Click here to see the Vikings game day gallery.

This week, the Atlanta Falcons played another tough divisional game against a strong rival, the New Orleans Saints.  This match up was as close to a must win game as a game can be in Week 3…win and you stay in contention…lose and you are in last place in the division with three other teams ahead of you.  So there was a lot at stake in this contest and it was a game for the ages.  In a high scoring shootout, the New Orleans Saints prevailed on a 1 yard TD run by Drew Brees in overtime.

Well it wasn’t all bad for Falcon fans…click here to see what I mean.

Week 3 of the NFL season saw the return of Philadelphia Eagles QB Carson Wentz who had been out of action since injuring his knee against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 14 of the 2017 season.  That was certainly good news for Philly fans, who witnessed a tightly contested game against the Indianapolis Colts.  The hometown Eagles prevailed 20 – 16 on a fourth quarter TD run by Wendell Smallwood. 

With the game heroics out of the way, let’s take look at the Philadelphia Eagles Cheerleaders who cheered their team on to victory in the wet weather at the Linc.  Click here to view the Eagles game day gallery.
