Are Week 9! It will be hard for the NFL to top what we saw last week, including one game-winning Hail Mary from the Washington Commandersa potential season-changing comeback for the Arizona Cardinals and a big win of Jameis Winston’s Cleveland Browns. But let’s see what happens.

One of the biggest games this week is an NFC North showdown between the Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers. Additionally, the Denver Broncos can show us if they are truly contenders when they take on the Baltimore Ravens, with both teams having identical 5-3 records. And further Sunday night football, Anthony Richardson has been benched for Joe Flacco while the Indianapolis Colts visit a Minnesota Vikings team that started 5-0 but has lost two straight games.
