The NFL is a cruel game. One week you're on top and the next you're feeling like the world is ending. So much changes every single week, but that's the beauty of it all. The highs are incredible and the lows are the worst feeling ever. Each team only gets 16 chances each season, which means that every single game matters. Well, unless you're the Dolphins, I guess.
Regardless, the Complex Sports team will be bringing you winners and losers from each week of the NFL season this year as part of our comprehensive coverage of the league. So as you go through the various ups and downs of the season, we'll be here to remind you that your team and favorite players either royally suck, or are on the verge of glory. Look away, Browns fans.
Winner: Lamar Jackson
Talk about proving the doubters wrong. Holy shit. Lamar Jackson not only demolished the Dolphins yesterday, but he did so by throwing the ball. Lamar not only threw the ball, but he legit diced up the defense for five TDs and over 300 yards. With a perfect QB rating. And only three incompletions. Just a truly masterful performance. Yes, it was against the Dolphins, but Lamar Jackson deserves all the props this week.
Loser: Myself, Baker Mayfield, and the Cleveland Browns
Well, that sucked. Yes, I am a Cleveland Browns fan. Yes, I predicted they would go 11-5 and make the AFC Championship game. No, I didn't cry yesterday. But honestly, what the fuck was that. I don't even know where to start. It was a legit embarrassing game on every level. they better figure that shit out, and quick.
