The Cincinnati Bengals game against the Atlanta Falcons was another excitingly contest that came down to the last minute before being decided.  Down by five points with less than five minutes left in the game, Andy Dalton marched the Bengals 85 yards down the field to score the game winning touchdown with 12 second left to give Cincinnati the 37 – 36 victory.  Dalton three for 337 yards and three TDs and Giovani Bernard chipped in two rushing TDs to pace the Bengals scoring.

It was a tough loss for the Atlanta Falcons, but the news wasn’t all bad.  The Atlanta Falcons Cheerleaders wore throw back uniforms for the game and that’s all good in my book.  See for yourself here.

There were a number of very close games in the NFL this week and the Eagles game against the Titans was an overtime thriller.  Ailing QB Marcus Mariota completed 30 of 43 passes for 344 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday’s 26-23 win over the Eagles.  He added 46 yards and a touchdown on 10 carries to defeat the defending Super Bowl champions in a game that surely pleased the hometown fans.

With the game summary completed, let’s turn our attention to the lovely Tennessee Titans Cheerleaders, who wore special country themed costumes for the game.  Click here to view the Titan’s game day gallery.

We continue our coverage of Week 4 of the NFL regular season with a visit to Southern California, where the San Francisco 49ers came calling to play the Los Angeles Chargers.  In a surprisingly tight game, the Los Angeles Chargers survived a tough match up to defeat the 49ers 29 – 27.  The 49ers were starting their back up QB C.J. Beathard after starter Jimmy Garappolo was lost for the season last week and Beathard acquitted himself well, throwing for 298 yards and 2 TDs.  But that impressive debut was not enough to hold off the Chargers, who were led my veteran signal caller Philip Rivers and RB Melvin Gordon.

It was another hot day in Southern California with temperatures nearing 90 degrees, but things were not as hot as on the sidelines where the Charger Girls were performing.  Click here to view the Chargers game day gallery of images.

We kick off our coverage of Week 4 of the NFL regular season with another high scoring game, this time a nationally televised Thursday night game between the visiting Minnesota Vikings and the Los Angeles Rams. Considered the favorites to make the Super Bowl for the NFC, the Rams and Vikings were mirror images of each other, teams with strong defenses and dynamic offensives. Well maybe they both teams had strong offenses, but their defenses…weren’t exactly stout as they gave up a combined 1002 net yards and 69 points.

If you liked scoring, this game was for you. Rams QB Jared Goff threw for a career high 465 yards and 5 TDs, connecting on scoring strikes to four different receivers. Vikings signal caller Kirk Cousins was nearly as proficient, finishing with 422 yards and 3 TDs. And as close as this game was, the Rams were a little better. Rams win, 38 – 31.

It was throwback uniform week for the Rams and their the Rams Cheerleaders wore some colorful uniforms to celebrate the occasion. Click here to view a large gallery of images from the game.

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.
