Will Mac Jones end the 2025 NFL season as QB holder of the 49ers? We submit this and other “overreactions” of week 2.
The Week 2 He confirmed several things that we saw at the start of the 2025 season of the NFL and put others in his place with spectacular, tense and exciting and final cardiac games.
On Thursday night, the Green Bay Packers strengthened as candidates for the NFL title when passing over the Washington Commanders, in turn, the Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants engaged in a shooting that was resolved in extra time, the Detroit Lions became the explosive and dominant team of recent years, while the last years, while the last years, while Pittsburgh Steelers fell to the Seattle Seahawks in their home debut and the Philadelphia Eagles beat the Kansas City Chiefs in the reunion of the Super Bowl Lix.
Let's take a look at several of the reasonable or absurd conclusions left by week 2.
The offensive of the Dallas Cowboys will need to score 30 or more points in each game to have the possibility of winning it
Verdict: NO ES OVERREACTION
Unlike what they did in the first game of the regular season in Philadelphia, the Dallas Cowboys battled more than expected against some giants that do not have precisely an offensive recognized for their efficiency and explosiveness.
It is impossible not to think that having an elite defensive wing, with which they had not long ago, the cowboys could have taken the triumph over the giants in regular time and without so much suffering, but the reality is that without the ability to press it, they made that Russell Wilson Look like the 2012 Russell Wilson.
The giants quarterback launched for 450 yards, completed 73.2 percent of its shipments (30 of 41) and had three passes of more than 45 yards with Darius Slayton (52 yards), Wan'dale Robinson (50) and TouchDown in recent seconds of regular time with Malik Nabers (48). Even in the play in which he was intercepted, Wilson had plenty of time in the bag.
Perhaps the defensive has improved against the race, but without pressure on quarterback, it will make work in forced marches to Dak Prescott and company.
Next game: vs. Chicago (4:25 PM ET / 2:25 PM CDMX)
Verdict: OVERREACTION
It is not the first time that the third year pin jumps to the field to take the donkey's place due to injury. In 2023, Browning did it for the first time and won four of the seven games that had as its starter and in which he launched 12 TouchDown passes, but suffered seven interceptions, to help the Bengals, at least, to end with winning record.
In the duel against the Jacksonville Jaguars, after Burrow had to go out for an injury to the big toe, Browning completed 21 of 32 passes for 241 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions, of which one that removed the Bengals the possibility of going for a downstream goal on the score They went up 24-17 in the third quarter.
Although he replied from his interceptions to commanding a 92 -yard series that ended with his touchdown career of a yard with 18 seconds for playing to give Cincinnati the victory, Browning must play with the same evils as Burrow, behind an offensive line that does not adequately protects its quartback and with the support of a defensive that gives many concessions that gives many concessions to rival attacks.
Next game: in Minnesota (1 PM ET / 11 AM CDMX)
MAC JONES It will be the head of the 49ers the rest of the season
Verdict: OVERREACTION
It is just a game, in addition to the fact that there are 265 million reasons that indicate that Brock Purdy It will be the titular quartback as soon as he returns from his injury, but Jones's performance against the New Orleans Saints must give a lot of peace of mind to the San Francisco 49ers.
After an irregular performance, the first series, Jones settled and worked well in the protection bag to connect in large plays with their receptors, including the 42 yards touchdown pass with Jauan Jennings With which the 49ers went to the front 26-14 with 12:18 for playing in the fourth period, on the way to finish their performance with 279 yards after completing 26 of 39 passes, three of them from TouchDown.
Jones' good work will help you show that you can start in another team in 20267 and at the same time, it will reinforce the theory that San Francisco's quarters are system, but, in the end, someone needs to execute that system.
Próximo Juego: vs. Arizona (4:25 PM / 2:25 PM CDMX)
Chiefs run the risk of starting the season with 2-4 record
Verdict: NO ES OVERREACTION
The Chiefs suffer the same offensive problems they had in 2024, but the difference is that, in the first two games of the current season, they have not been able to place themselves in a position to win, a quality that helped them last season to reach the Super Bowl.
The Chiefs offensive line protects a little more to Patrick Mahomesbut it fails to contain the pressure in load packages (five or more defensive), the receptors do not separate from their markers, the land game is not used frequently and produces little and the Mohamcs connection – Travis Kelce That before the rescue went out, now it is out of synchrony.
On the defensive, the front line looked better at the Philadelphia Eagles of what did it in Brazil in week 1 and although it limited to Jalen Hurts 101 yards by air and managed to capture it twice, battled to contain Saquon Barkleywho ran for 88 yards in 22 races. In total, the Eagles added 122 yards by land.
Chiefs have complicated duels against the Baltimore Ravens and Detroit Lions at home and among them, visit the New York Giants and the Jacksonville Jaguars, games that no longer seem as simple as before the start of the regular season.
Next game: in Giants (8:20 PM ET / 6:20 PM CDMX)
Verdict: OVERREACTION
To play with the defensive of the Miami Dolphins is one thing, but overcoming that of the Denver Broncos to win with comeback included is another and forces Jones to take.
The quartrartback of the Colts showed a presence in the bag against the Broncos, did not make serious mistakes and after taking his offensive to score two field goals in the second half before commanding the last series of the game to put Spencer Shrader In the position of giving Indianapolis victory with another field goal in the last play of the match.
In just two games, Jones has done things very well at the forefront of the offensive of the Colts, he has practically silenced the questions about whether he should be the headline or Anthony Richardson to exceed expectations, but, to consider him a candidate for the most valuable player award, he must maintain that level of efficiency for 15 more games.
Next game: in Tennessee (1 PM ET / 11 AM CDMX)
