Pokes In the NFL: Week 2
Week 2 of the 2021 NFL season is officially behind us and we’re on to week 3. While there were certainly some entertaining and exciting games over the weekend, it was a bit of a slow weekend for the former Oklahoma State players currently in the NFL.
We’ll start at the bottom of the NFL schedule and work our way up.
Chris Carson and Tre Flowers: Seattle Seahawks
The Seahawks fell to the Tennessee Titans this past weekend, 33-30 in overtime. As he did in week 1, running back Chris Carson led the way for the Seahawks as he had 13 carries for 31 yards and two touchdowns.
As for safety Tre Flowers, he posted five total tackles on the day, four of which were solo stops.
The Seahawks moved to 1-1 on the season with the loss and will travel to Minnesota for a 3:25 p.m. CT kick against the Vikings on FOX (check your local listing.)
Blake Jarwin: Dallas Cowboys
The Cowboys held on to beat the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, 20-17. Jarwin hauled in three catches on four targets for 37 yards.
The Cowboys will host divisional rivals Philadelphia on Monday Night Football. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:15 p.m. CT and will be televised on ESPN.
Chuba Hubbard: Carolina Panthers
The Panthers crushed the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, 26-7. Chuba got the first touches of his NFL career in the game as he finished with eight carries for 10 yards.
The Panthers travel to Houston for the Thursday night game of the week. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:20 p.m. CT and will be on the NFL Network.
James Washington and Mason Rudolph: Pittsburgh Steelers
The Steelers fell to the Las Vegas Raiders this past Sunday, 26-17. Mason Rudolph didn’t play and James Washington was targeted just one in the game. He finished with no stats. Kind of starting to wish the Steelers had traded Washington away so we’d get to see him perform each week, but here we are.
The Steelers will host the Bengals this coming Sunday for a noon CT kick on CBS (check your local listing).
Emmanuel Ogbah: Miami Dolphins
The Dolphins got absolutely crushed by the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, 35-0. However, defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah was one of the bright spots on the day as he finished with four total tackles, one of which was a solo stop, 0.5 sacks and three quarterback hurries. The Dolphins travel to Las Vegas for a showdown against the Raiders this weekend with a 3:05 p.m. CT kick on CBS (check your local listing).
