Week 2 of the 2021 season is almost complete and the Washington Football Team won their game against the New York Giants. The Eagles lost and the Cowboys won giving all three teams a 1-1 record. Washington currently holds the tie breaker in that three-way tie, but there are still 15 games to go.

Tonight’s game features two NFC North teams who enter the game at 0-1. The Detroit Lions lost 41-33 to the San Francisco 49ers and enter tonight’s game as big underdogs. The Green Bay Packers were a mess last week, and Aaron Rodgers looked like a pod person stepped onto the field in his place. This is their chance to show that the 38-3 Week 1 beatdown was a fluke, and their season wasn’t over when the offseason QB drama started.
