Real Football: Buffalo Bills earn grimy MNF dub, Wentz implodes, Jags ALL IN, Trevor Lawrence debate & the fight for AFC supremacy

It’s Trade Deadline Day. Some teams have already made their move. How should NFL general managers handle these manic hours? Jim Monos has lived it.

Yuck.

Yikes.

C’mon Kevin O’Connell. Couldn’t you show a little mercy for your quarterback?

Both the metrics and our eyeballs suggest that Carson Wentz’s 8-of-25, two-pick night against the Buffalo Bills is one of the worst quarterbacking performances in Minnesota Vikings history. I thought Troy Aikman was going to catch a redeye flight out of U.S Bank Stadium at several points of this game.

We hit record on this week’s episode of Real Football a couple days early to dive right into the Buffalo Bills’ 23-6 win over the Vikings on MNF and everything NFL Trade Deadline. A ton to discuss, dissect and debate…

  • Wentz’s night. He was bad. The Vikings’ handling of this all is even worse. What now?

  • Buffalo’s defense took care of business. Same question: What now? Should GM Brandon Beane make a move? Amani Hooker or Budda Baker for a second-round pick perhaps?

  • James Cook’s toughness is severely underrated. His O-Line was comprised, this Vikings D is the NFL’s best, and Buffalo’s RB1 just kept chippin’ away to get to 100 yards. A good sign for a team hoping the AFC runs through wintry Orchard Park, NY.

  • Remember when blitzing was a poison pill vs. the elite QBs? Now, you better manufacture pressure, or you’re toast. Jordan Love, Joe Burrow and the best of the best are too accurate.

  • Jags! Jags! Jags! Liam Coen and James Gladstone are going down swinging, baby. Welcome to Duval County, Jordan Davis, Jessie Bates and Davon Godchaux. I love it. Jim hates it. We butt heads on everything Jaguars. Because, really, it’s a Trevor Lawrence conversation.

  • Why Monos will not forgive the Carolina Panthers for one epic Week 9 gaffe.

  • Gambling debate. I say it’s not the same as alcohol. My co-host ardently disagrees. As always, let us know what you think in the comments.
