"ARLINGTON, Texas -- Week 7 has a weighty feel to it. It no longer feels early in the NFL season. We're in the thick of it now, with nearly two months' worth of evidence to support our opinions of these teams and these players. What might have felt like an overreaction in Week 2 feels less so now. This is also the point in the season where coaches get tired of underreacting. On Sunday, Jets coach Aaron Glenn seemed to have finally grown tired of watching Justin Fields' complete inability to sense or react to pressure, as he benched Fields for Tyrod Taylor on the second half of New York's latest lackluster loss."
"Miami coach Mike McDaniel sat Tua Tagovailoa down for Quinn Ewers in the fourth quarter of a game which saw Tagovailoa throw three interceptions and the Dolphins lose 31-6 to a Browns team that hadn't scored more than 17 points since last December. Trevor Lawrence, Spencer Rattler and Geno Smith didn't get pulled from their games, but it feels like there are fair questions about them that their coaches will have to answer this week."
"The Vikings should have re-signed Sam Darnold Minnesota let Darnold leave in free agency he threw 35 touchdown passes"
Week 7 has a weighty feel as nearly two months of play provide clearer evidence about teams and players. Coaches are beginning to stop underreacting and are making in-game quarterback changes. Jets coach Aaron Glenn benched Justin Fields for Tyrod Taylor in the second half after concerns about Fields' inability to sense or react to pressure. Miami coach Mike McDaniel replaced Tua Tagovailoa with Quinn Ewers in the fourth quarter after Tagovailoa threw three interceptions in a 31-6 loss to the Browns. Trevor Lawrence, Spencer Rattler and Geno Smith remained in their games despite emerging questions. Minnesota allowed Sam Darnold to leave in free agency after he threw 35 touchdown passes.
