Week 3 is here to let us know that basically everything we said after Week 1 and Week 2 was indeed an overreaction.
The Vikings crushed the Texans. The Broncos crushed the Buccaneers -- in Tampa Bay. Malik Willis threw two touchdown passes and ran for another score as the Packers improved to 2-0 without Jordan Love. The Saints saw their per-game scoring average drop from 45.5 to 34.3. Aaron Rodgers looked like a spry 31-year-old. And the Rams came back from a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter without any receivers to beat the 49ers.
Surprises and upsets were the order of the day in Week 3, reminding us that it's still so early in the 2024 NFL season that nobody really knows anything. But if you think that's going to stop us from overreacting, well ... then you're the one who's overreacting. Let's judge a few potential takeaways from the weekend's games as legitimate or irrational.
