NFL Week 10 grades: Eagles settle for C+ on MNF; Bills flop vs. Dolphins

Welcome to week 10 classes!

If you like to support underdogs, then week 10 proved to be quite strong for you as we saw a total of five underdogs pick up a win.

• The Patriot entered Tampa Bay as a 2.5-point underdog and ended up pulling off a 28-23 upset of the Buccaneers. Drake May remained in the MVP conversation by throwing for 270 yards and two touchdowns.
• With the absence of CJ Stroud, the Texans were a 1.5 point underdog against the Jaguars and it looked like they were going to get kicked out of their own stadium. Heading into the fourth quarter, the Texans led 29-10, but then staged a stunning comeback to top the Jags, 36-29.
• The Jets were also a 1.5-point underdog and although their offense didn’t even produce 170 total yards, they managed to surprise the Browns thanks in large part to two touchdowns on special teams.
• And let’s not forget the saints. They were a 5.5-point underdog against a 5-4 Panthers team, and somehow they managed to pull off an upset with a 17-10 victory.
• Finally, we have the Dolphins, who pulled off the upset of the day by destroying the Bills 30-13 in a game where Buffalo closed as an 8.5 point favorite.

In the final game of Week 10, the Eagles weren’t an underdog, but they went on the road and beat the Packers, 10-7, in a crucial NFC showdown.
