Clutch Encounters: Week 6

Week 6 was good for fans of some of the NFL's "flagship" or "media darling" teams. The Cowboys hung 40 points on Jacksonville's respected defense. The two Pennsylvania teams (Eagles and Steelers) took care of the division rivals they usually take care of in big games (Giants and Bengals). The Patriots and Packers won in dramatic fashion on Sunday and Monday night to end the week.

If you're just a fan of competitive football in general, then Week 6 was really disappointing until those final two games in prime time. The three games in the late afternoon slate on Sunday were especially brutal, unless you enjoy watching Marcus Mariota take 11 sacks against Baltimore.
