Around the League: Week 7
1st ballot for sure
Tony Gonzalez is now #2 on the NFL’s all time receptions list. The tight end has 1,110 receptions now in his career, placing him just above Colts great Marvin Harrison (1,102). While 1st place is surely unreachable, with Jerry Rice at 1,549, Gonzalez is a sure fire hall of famer. He’s been in the league since 1997, and has caught at least 70 passes each year since 2002. Even this year, without Matt Ryan, Gonzalez has 41 catches for 520 yards and 3 scores. Here are the week 7 scores:
- Titans 37, Texans 10
- Browns 31, Seahawks 26
- Falcons 34, Lions 16
- Dolphins 22, Broncos 17
- Jets 14, Chargers 10
- Bears 27, Buccaneers 20
- Redskins 34, Panthers 31 (OT)
- Raiders 24, Chiefs 19
- Cardinals 24, Steelers 16
- Packers 21, Vikings 14
- Rams 30, Cowboys 20
- Colts 31, Saints 27
- Ravens 21, Jaguars 15
