While Sunday night was about “America’s Team,” Sunday afternoon was all about Black America’s Teams. The Kansas City Chiefs dominated the Baltimore Ravens at Arrowhead Stadium, 37–20. Did this game prove Kansas City is still the team to beat in the AFC, even after a 1–2 start? Do we need to have the annual Lamar Jackson conversation again? 🔥 Kyle Hamilton on the Ravens’ struggles: “I just want to apologize to all fans. The product we are putting on the field right now is not up to par with what the Ravens have produced in the recent past. We’re trying our best to correct it, but obviously something is wrong.” 📊 Fun Fact: The Ravens have started 1–3 only twice in the last 25 years (2005 & 2015). Both times, they missed the playoffs. This year, their defense is on pace to allow 560 points (33 per game). #Chiefs #Ravens #NFL Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Did the Cowboys actually look stronger in the tie? And most importantly… did this game prove Jerry Jones right for trading Micah Parsons?
