It’s not a secret that the<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/seattle-seahawks"> Seattle Seahawks</a> are one of the biggest surprises of the 2025 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> season. The NFC West franchise returned to winning ways on Sunday, with a 20-12 win over the 4-1 Jacksonville Jaguars.&nbsp;



Seattle co-leads its division alongside the San Francisco 49ers and the Los Angeles Rams, but their performances to start the season are taking many by surprise. Sam Darnold continues to play at a high level, while Jaxon Smith-Njigba is showing off his abilities.&nbsp;



Nobody expected them to be this good ahead of the season, and the front office and the coaching staff has received praise for the team’s solid start.&nbsp;



<h2>NFL insider praises Seahawks GM amid 4-2 start</h2>



The Athletic’s Michael Shawn-Duggar belongs to the group that has enjoyed watching the Seahawks. The analyst calls the early success a “victory lap” for general manager John Scheider.&nbsp;&nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/03/10130742/Mike-Macdonald-1-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="Mike Macdonald in 2024" class="wp-image-352387" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Head Coach Mike Macdonald of the Seattle Seahawks</figcaption></figure>



“The 2025 season is shaping up to be quite the victory lap for Schneider, primarily because of Darnold (and the trade of QB Geno Smith to the Las Vegas Raiders), Lawrence, the pass-blocking stability first-round rookie left guard Grey Zabel has already brought to the offensive line and the bet that receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba could lead a prolific pass attack after DK Metcalf was traded,” Dugar wrote. “Not to mention the return on investment from smaller moves like re-signing cornerback Josh Jobe (for $2 million), drafting receiver Tory Horton in Round 5 and claiming cornerback Derion Kendrick off waivers,” he said.



After missing the 2024 NFL playoffs, the Seahawks went out and made multiple moves to bolster the squad. They are on the right track to win the division, but it won’t be easy against two teams eager to succeed as well.&nbsp;

While the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tennessee-titans">Tennessee Titans</a> aren’t going through the best moment right now (1-5), rookie quarterback Cam Ward has shown flashes of his talent. The Titans couldn’t move past the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 6, losing 20-10 after a lifeless performance.&nbsp;



That game was the final straw for the team’s front office. Brian Callahan was fired on Monday, leaving the franchise with a 4-19 record. Ward, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl"> NF</a>L Draft, left a good impression.&nbsp;



He is still young and has a lot of room for improvement, but opponents are seeing that he brings plenty of things to the table.&nbsp;



<h2>Maxx Crosby compares Cam Ward to Patrick Mahomes&nbsp;</h2>



During this week’s edition of his “The Rush” podcast, Raiders defensive star Maxx Crosby talked about Ward’s competitiveness.&nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/01/18153136/Maxx-Crosby-4-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="Maxx Crosby Las Vegas Raiders" class="wp-image-316477" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Maxx Crosby #98 of the Las Vegas Raiders</figcaption></figure>



“He’s a hell of a competitor, and I love his attitude,” Crosby said. “I know he wants to win really badly. He’s going to have a great career. Guys like that, you can just tell they’re wired the right way. He’s gonna get better and better.”



Additionally, the pass rusher compared Ward to one of his biggest opponents, three-time Super Bowl champion Patrick Mahomes.&nbsp;



“He’ll wait and wait and wait and wait, and you’re like, ‘Ok, is he really about to hold this motherf****r?’ And you get a hit, but he’s just trying to make an extra play, and you’ve got to respect that because a lot of quarterbacks don’t want to get hit like that. And he doesn’t give a damn, he’s just trying to win,” Crosby said.



The Titans have an intriguing roster that can compete in the future. However, they need the right leader to right the ship and take the squad where they want to go. Ward is a solid prospect, but it didn’t look like he was developing under Callahan.&nbsp;

Alvin Kamara and Chris Olave were mentioned as potential trade chips for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-orleans-saints">New Orleans Saints</a>. After Derek Carr retired and Spencer Rattler took over as the starting quarterback, the Saints have struggled to find consistency and currently sit at 1-5.&nbsp;



The bad results and performances have prompted fans to speculate about the team potentially moving some of their pieces and start planning for the future. 



Kamara and Olave were part of that group, with teams like the Los Angeles Chargers and Kansas City Chiefs mentioned as landing spots for Kamara, and the Pittsburgh Steelers and New England Patriots considered good options for Olave.&nbsp;



<h2>Alvin Kamara, Chris Olave reject the idea of getting traded&nbsp;</h2>



The running back and the wide receiver cleared the air on these rumors, making it clear they aren’t thinking of leaving the Saints anytime soon.&nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/08/11141957/chris-olave-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-470410" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Chris Olave #12 of the New Orleans Saints </figcaption></figure>



“Yeah, I don’t know where that [came from],” Kamara said, via ESPN’s Katherine Terrell. “We talked about [the report] and we was looking at each other like the little Spider-Man meme: ‘Did you say something? Did I say something?’ I don’t know where that came from, but I think I’ve been vocal enough that … I don’t want to go anywhere.”



Olave added that he’s talked with people within the organization, and nothing suggests he will get shipped somewhere else.&nbsp;



“That’s part of the business, man,” Olave said, via Terrell. “It’s been like that all year, in the offseason. Even right now, I ain’t really been on social media, but I know it’s cooking right now that we’re 1-5. So, there’s always rumors, the internet trying to always create some buzz. But I had a conversation with the people in the building so I’m very confident.”



The Saints lost to the New England Patriots in Week 6. Many think they should start dealing their best players for draft capital or young players. They aren’t reluctant to part with their stars, but time will tell how long they will do so.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/atlanta-falcons">Atlanta Falcons</a> will play in prime time for the second consecutive week, this time against the San Francisco 49ers. Fresh off an upset win over the Buffalo Bills (24-14), Atlanta is set to extend its good moment and make another statement against one of the leaders of the NFC West division.&nbsp;



The game will feature a can’t-miss duel between two special running backs, Bijan Robinson and Christian McCaffrey. While McCaffrey is trying to return to his best version, Robinson has emerged as one of the top players in his position.&nbsp;



Whoever dominates this duel will give their team an advantage. McCaffrey is aware that Robinson is a real threat, and the 49ers should be ready to attack him with everything.&nbsp;



<h2>Christian McCaffrey heaps high praise on Bijan Robinson</h2>



On Wednesday, McCaffrey shared his opinion on Robinson. The 49ers stars showered the Falcons leader with good words.&nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/05202707/Christian-McCaffrey-running-back-for-the-San-Francisco-49ers-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="Christian McCaffrey, running back for the San Francisco 49ers" class="wp-image-287303" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Christian McCaffrey, running back for the San Francisco 49ers</figcaption></figure>



“It’s amazing, man. You know, I think when you see it in person, you realize why he is who he is,” McCaffrey said. “I hope so (Robinson has some of his game). That’s a huge compliment. You know, I watch him move, watch him make a lot of these plays and you know it’s inspiring. So he’s definitely somebody that when you watch him play, you know, any chance you get, you can try to emulate some of the stuff he does.”



McCaffrey and Robinson worked out together in the offseason. McCaffrey saw what Robinson brings to the table firsthand and knew the Niners would be in for a busy day trying to stop Robinson.&nbsp;

The Los Angeles Chargers got back to winning ways on Sunday against he struggling Miami Dolphins. After a two-game losing streak, the Chargers secured a 29-27 win over Tua Tagovailoa and Co., improving to 4-2 ahead of an intriguing matchup against the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Indianapolis Colts</a>.&nbsp;



Star quarterback Justin Herbert has played at a high level and he’s eager to continue delivering on Sunday. The Colts and Chargers are two of the hottest teams in the league at this moment, and both teams will face a difficult test in Week 7.&nbsp;



Colts coach Shane Steichen has a past with the Chargers, and Herbert had he chance to work with him during his rookie season. They will clash with each other on Sunday to send a message to the rest of the AFC.&nbsp;



<h2>Justin Herbert lauds former OC Shane Steichen&nbsp;</h2>



Speaking with reporters, Herbert lauded his former offensive coordinator, although they only spent the 2020 season together.&nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/07/28083041/justin-herbert-6-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="Justin Herbert Los Angeles Chargers QB" class="wp-image-449459" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Justin Herbert #10 of the Los Angeles Chargers </figcaption></figure>



“It was really fun with him,” Herbert said. “He’s so smart and such a great coach, leader, friend. There’s no surprise why they’re doing so well. He’s such a great coach. Definitely enjoyed our time with him. I learned a lot from him, wish I had more time to learn from him-how smart he was. But I wish him nothing but the best.”



Many considered Herbert’s rookie season the most exciting of his career, perhaps until this season. Steichen has done a terrific job wherever he’s gone, as he’s worked with big players such as Philip Rivers, Jalen Hurts, and Daniel Jones.

Carolina Panthers’ third-year quarterback Bryce Young had a tumultuous start to the season, struggling to get things going despite a late comeback attempt against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 2 of the 2025 campaign.&nbsp;



Young, 24, showed signs of talent last season after being benched in favor of veteran Andy Dalton. He overcame that situation and played a solid level down the stretch, lifting the expectations for this year.&nbsp;



Carolina entered Week 4 with a 1-2 record after an upset 30-0 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Following a humbling 42-13 loss to the New England Patriots, they started playing better. Ahead of Week 7, they are on a two-game winning streak, following wins over the Miami Dolphins and Dallas Cowboys.



Young has gone 36 of 55 in the last two games, throwing for 397 yards and five touchdowns against just two interceptions.



<h2>NFL insider reports Bryce Young is earning the Panthers’ favor with recent performances&nbsp;</h2>



NFL insider Jordan Schultz revealed on Wednesday that Young is being seen with different eyes amid a positive start to the season.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/03/19123106/Bryce-Young-7-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="Bryce Young #9 of the Carolina Panthers" class="wp-image-358866" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Bryce Young #9 of the Carolina Panthers</figcaption></figure>



“Tons of fun stories in the<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> NFL</a> right now, but one of them not getting enough attention: Bryce Young’s continued improvement for the emerging 3-3 Panthers,” Schultz wrote. “Still just 24 years old, Young has engineered two straight game-winning drives while making a series of timely throws (namely to Jimmy Horn Jr. and Hunter Renfrow) you’d expect from a top-tier QB. His combination of accuracy and clutch play has led to exciting times in Carolina, and a sustained internal belief that Young is a true franchise QB.”



The Panthers will clash against the New York Jets on Sunday, hoping to worsen the Jets’ crisis and get over the .500 mark.&nbsp;

The <a href="http://bolavip.com/en/topic/tennessee-titans" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tennessee Titans</a> fired Brian Callahan after the team suffered its fifth loss of the season against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 6 of the 2025 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> season. Callahan only won four games during his tenure with the Titans and the team didn’t show any improvements under his guidance, even with Cam Ward under center.&nbsp;



The search for a new head coach already started, but there’s no clear indication of who could take over from Callahan. Mike Vrabel was the last coach who led Tennessee to the playoffs, including an appearance in the AFC championship game.&nbsp;



NFL insider Ian Rapoport shared a series of names that could interest the Titans’ front office, including currently employed coordinators.&nbsp;



<h2>Ian Rapoport names potential head-coaching candidates for Titans&nbsp;</h2>



During a conversation with “The Rich Eisen Show,” the veteran insider explained that the Titans’ job was a good one because it was open and several candidates could join the team. Additionally, he said that there isn’t a strong option for the AFC South franchise.&nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/08/16135717/cam-the-cameron-ward-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-473652" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Cameron Ward #1 of the Tennessee Titans </figcaption></figure>



“I would say, if you wanna look at where to go, it doesn’t seem like there’s a Ben Johnson in this mix. It doesn’t seem like there’s a can’t-miss candidate. A couple that have been mentioned to me, I would say Matt Nagy… Another one would be Arthur Smith… Then you have some others, really good coordinators. Like the Joe Brady of the world, Lou Anarumo is another who’s done a really good job in Indy. I would more focus on leading and, you know, who can get the room better as opposed to who is the sort of quarterback guru,” he said.



The Titans will clash against Vrabel’s team, the New England Patriots, in Week 7 of the season. They will try to bounce back again and secure another win against one of the most entertaining teams in the league this campaign.&nbsp;

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-england-patriots" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New England Patriots </a>are one of the most intriguing teams in the 2025 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL </a>season. They improved to 4-2 after beating the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, confirming that their upset win over the Buffalo Bills in Week 5 wasn’t a fluke.&nbsp;



Drake Maye continues to play at a high level, and his wide receivers have risen to the occasion. Stefon Diggs, signed during the offseason, has recorded 32 receptions for 387 yards, leading the team in both categories.&nbsp;



Kayshon Boutte (18 catches for 301 yards) and DeMario Douglas (eight receptions for 101 yards) have worked well with Diggs, giving Maye a trio of solid wide receivers. However, the Pats could be on the lookout for a new wideout.&nbsp;



<h2>Rob Gronkowski names AJ Brown a potential target for Patriots&nbsp;</h2>



During a Wednesday appearance on Kay Adams’ “Up &amp; Adams” show, future Hall of Famer Rob Gronkowski explained why he believed Philadelphia Eagles’ star AJ Brown would end up going to Foxborough.&nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/09/29093756/AJ-Brown-looks-on-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="AJ Brown looks on" class="wp-image-500385" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>A.J. Brown #11 of the Philadelphia Eagles reacts.</figcaption></figure>



“AJ Brown, obviously, but that’s been news for a long time now, going to the Patriots, since he’s such a big Patriots fan as well, and you saw that when he got Julian’s jersey and Tom’s jersey in the offseason,” Gronkowski said. “So a wide receiver, big-time player, I’m not talking just trade for, you know, a slightly average guy. They got to make a splash if they do make the trade, and they can’t overpay either. It just has to be fair.”



Brown has complained about the lack of targets this season. The Eagles are a run-heavy offense, which has frustrated the wide receiver more than once. New England’s running game isn’t that good, either, but Brown would put them on a different level, should he join.&nbsp;

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/seattle-seahawks" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Seattle Seahawks </a>are one of the most entertaining teams in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NF</a>L in 2025. They co-lead the NFC West division alongside the San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams (all with a 4-2 record) after a positive start.&nbsp;



Seattle made a statement on Sunday, when they bounced back from a 38-35 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and took down the 4-1 Jacksonville Jaguars, fresh off a dramatic win on Monday Night Football against the Kansas City Chiefs.&nbsp;



Sam Darnold and Co. continue to play at a high level, but not everybody is evaluating their performance as highly as most fans and analysts.&nbsp;



<h2>PFF ranks Baltimore Ravens higher than Seahawks in the latest power rankings&nbsp;</h2>



Pro Football Focus shared its NFL Week 7 power rankings. The power rankings is based on team standings and future prospects. The Kansas City Chiefs sit atop, while the Green Bay Packers are second, the Buffalo Bills are third, the Detroit Lions rank fourth and the Rams close out the top five.&nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/03/10130742/Mike-Macdonald-1-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="Mike Macdonald in 2024" class="wp-image-352387" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Head Coach Mike Macdonald of the Seattle Seahawks</figcaption></figure>



The 1-5 Baltimore Ravens rank seventh, right behind the Philadelphia Eagles. In contrast, the Seahawks aren’t even in the top-10. They clock in at No. 12, with a 52% chance of making the playoffs and a 3% chance of winning the Super Bowl.&nbsp;



Lamar Jackson’s return after the bye week makes it easy to see why the Ravens would rank that high, but the team also lost games when the two-time NFL MVP was healthy. The Ravens are one of the most disappointing teams in the league this season, and it’s hard to see them turning things around.&nbsp;

Brian Callahan lost his job as the<a href="http://bolavip.com/en/topic/tennessee-titans" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Tennessee Titans</a>‘ head coach on Monday, following a 20-10 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. The Titans looked lifeless against the Raiders, who had just one win prior to their Sunday meeting.&nbsp;



Callahan was on the receiving end of criticism due to the lack of progress the team showed during his tenure. He left with a 4-19 record since taking over from Mike Vrabel in 2024.&nbsp;



Vrabel himself revealed that he reached out to Callahan after the Titans fired him. The New England Patriots coach went through the same experience last year, and he wanted to have a nice gesture with his successor.&nbsp;



<h2>Mike Vrabel reveals message to Brian Callahan&nbsp;</h2>



Speaking with reporters, Vrabel, who coached the Titans from 2018 through 2023, admitted he contacted Callahan to show support.&nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/04/16103950/Mike-Vrabel-3-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="Mike Vrabel New England Patriots HC" class="wp-image-377712" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Head coach Mike Vrabel of the New England Patriots </figcaption></figure>



“Of course, I did,” Vrabel said. “I mean, you don’t wanna see anybody that shares a job with you let go. That’s a tough feeling. With family and school, whether it’s in college or pro, we’re in the media every single day. There’s a human element to this that I don’t wanna forget. I just remember all those coaches or people that reached out after I was let go. And I think that’s important, because nobody texts you when you lose, they all text you when you win.”



Vrabel will clash against the Titans on Sunday, trying to improve to 5-2 and continue to lead the AFC East division. This time, however, he won’t meet Callahan on the other side of the gridiron.&nbsp;

Despite a terrific start to the season, Sam Darnold still has doubters around the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a>. The veteran quarterback had the best campaign of his career in 2024, shining with the Minnesota Vikings, taking them to the playoffs after a 14-win season.&nbsp;



Darnold signed with the<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/seattle-seahawks" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Seattle Seahawks </a>in the offseason, but many waited until finally giving him his props. The Seahawks are 4-2 after beating the 4-1 Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, making a statement against Trevor Lawrence and Co.&nbsp;



Darnold went 16 of 27 for 295 yards and two touchdowns, leading the Seahawks back to winning ways after a narrow loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 5. His performance against another hot team earned him plenty of praise and the recognition some didn’t want to give him at first.



<h2>Sam Darnold gets high praise after win over Jaguars&nbsp;</h2>



Bleacher Report listed Darnold as one of the winners of Week 6, following a strong performance against the Jaguars. They admitted that his season in Minnesota wasn’t a fluke.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/10/06135818/sam-darnold-5-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="Sam Darnold QB" class="wp-image-504186" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Sam Darnold #14 of the Seattle Seahawks.</figcaption></figure>



“Seattle is for real in the NFC West,” Bleacher Report writes this week. “After losing a heartbreaker in last week’s shootout with the Buccaneers, it would have been somewhat understandable if the Seahawks had experienced a letdown in Week 6—the team had to travel thousands of miles to face a red-hot Jags team that just stunned the Kansas City Chiefs. Instead, the Seahawks played a relatively mistake-free game and gutted out a win.”



Seattle could extend its good moment with a win against the Houston Texans on Monday. Darnold is an early MVP candidate, and he doesn’t seem to be slowing down at this moment.

After a promising 2-0 start to the season, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/arizona-cardinals" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Arizona Cardinals</a> have lost four consecutive games, including one last-second duel against the Tennessee Titans despite entering the fourth quarter up 21-6.&nbsp;



The Cardinals are two steps behind the Seattle Seahawks, San Francisco 49ers, and Los Angeles Rams in the NFC West, and many are suggesting they need to part ways with their starting quarterback, Kyler Murray.&nbsp;



Murray has gone 110 of 161 for 962 yards and six touchdowns against three interceptions this season. He missed the Indianapolis Colts game in Week 6, but Jacoby Brissett held his own, going 27 of 44 for 320 yards and two touchdowns.&nbsp;



While the Cardinals lost 31-27, this game opened the door for a change at State Farm Stadium.



<h2>Analyst says Kyler Murray should be better off away from Cardinals&nbsp;</h2>



Alex Kay of Bleacher Report wrote recently that seeing Murray on a different team wouldn’t be crazy, although he’s under contract through 2027.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/08/14192637/Kyler-Murray-quarterback-for-the-Arizona-Cardinals-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="Kyler Murray, quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals." class="wp-image-472696" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Kyler Murray, quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals.</figcaption></figure>



“The team just proved it can perform competitively without him,” Kay wrote. “The bounty of picks the Cardinals would receive in return would allow them to expedite a rebuilding process. A trade could benefit Murray as well. With blunders like the public spat leading up to his contract extension and the “homework clause” initially inserted into his new deal, it feels like the QB and his employer haven’t been able to get on the same page. A move to another franchise could help him take a leap into the upper echelon of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> signal-callers.”



Arizona will try to get back to winning ways against the Green Bay Packers in Week 7. Kyler Murray is listed as questionable after missing the Colts duel.

Cam Ward and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tennessee-titans" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tennessee Titans</a> are off to a terrible start to the 2025 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> season. The rookie quarterback has struggled to get things going, not only winning one game in six duels, but showing little to no improvement under Brian Callahan.&nbsp;



The former Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator was dismissed on Monday after the Titans lost to the Las Vegas Raiders, 20-10, on Sunday. After a 1-5 record this season, Titans owner Amy Adams released Callahan in the team’s fifth power structure change in the past 34 months.



Ward was confident he could make an impact on the team when he got the hang of the league, but he will have to do so under a different coach.



<h2>Cam Ward issued strong warning to the NFL&nbsp;</h2>



Talking with Michael Silver of The Athletic on Friday, Ward reflected on the rocky start to the campaign, giving himself an “F” grade. More than that, the 23-year-old quarterback sent a message to the rest of the league, warning it about what’s coming once he unlocks his potential.

“I’m not playing how I want to play right now,” he said. “So, once I play how I want to play, I think the league will be f—ed.”



In six games, Ward has posted 111 completions on 202 pass attempts, racking up 1,101 yards and three touchdowns against four interceptions and 25 sacks. The Titans are one of the worst teams in the league, and nothing suggests they are going to turn things around soon.

The<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-england-patriots" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> New England Patriots </a>are one of the most entertaining teams in the NFL after six weeks of action. The AFC East team improved to 4-2 after beating the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, confirming that their win over the Buffalo Bills in Week 5 wasn’t a fluke.&nbsp;



They now lead the division and are looking like legitimate playoff contenders. Drake Maye has played at a high level, leading the team in his second season, looking settled after a tumultuous rookie campaign under Jerod Mayo.&nbsp;



Maye has gone 131 of 179 for 1,522 yards and 10 touchdowns and two interceptions. He has carried the ball 36 times for 138 yards and two more touchdowns.



<h2>Analyst lauds Mike Vrabel, Drake Maye over Patriots’ remarkable start&nbsp;</h2>



Besides Maye, analyst Pete Prisco lauded Mike Vrabel for the way he has turned the franchise around in his first season on the sideline.&nbsp;

“It’s coach and quarterback in this league. If you have the coach and you have the quarterback, you’re gonna win games,” Prisco said. “They have the coach, they have the quarterback. Drake Maye is the real deal. If you watched Drake Maye last week, some of the throws he made, major jaw-droppers. They were the big-boy throws from a big-time <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> quarterback. Even one that got called back for a terrible pass interference on Stefon Diggs for pushing off. That throw, I went, ‘Wow!’ This kid is playing at a high level, they’re getting better on the offensive line and defensively, all those bodies that they paid money to, they’re kinda coming together.”



The Patriots will clash against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, hoping to continue their good moment and win their fourth consecutive game. Maye and Co. are finding their rhythm, and the Titans are anything but competitive this campaign.&nbsp;

Drake Maye showed flashes of his talent in 2024, but the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-england-patriots" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New England Patriots</a>’ second-year quarterback has elevated his game and is leading the team to a 4-2 record and the first spot in the AFC East, even beating the Buffalo Bills as visitors in Week 4.&nbsp;



New England extended its winning streak to three games after beating the New Orleans Saints 25-19 on Sunday, with Maye going 18 of 26 for 261 yards and three touchdowns. The quarterback has become one of the most intriguing stories to start the season, and the Patriots are a fun team to watch again under Mike Vrabel.&nbsp;



Maye is drawing a lot of attention with his performances, which include 131 completions on 179 pass attempts, 1,522 yards, and 10 touchdowns against two interceptions.&nbsp;



<h2>DeMario Douglas explains what’s different for Drake Maye this season&nbsp;</h2>



Patriots’ wide receiver DeMario Douglas joined <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL </a>Network’s “The Insiders” on Tuesday to talk about his team’s emergence as the AFC East leader and how Maye has evolved since his rookie campaign.

“I’ll say his confidence,” Douglas said. “His confidence has been growing. I’m proud of him, man. He never got too high when he was up, he never got too low when he was down. I’m loving the confidence that he’s giving us. He’s just going out there and playing on the field. I’m loving it, I love his presentation.”



The Patriots will clash against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, in a duel against Vrabel’s former team. New England is on a roll, and they can continue their sweet moment with a win against one of the worst teams in the league.&nbsp;
