NFL Week 10 confidence pool rankings: Josh Allen steamrolls Jets in another lopsided mismatch
Who thought the Packers offense had it in them?Christian Watson and Matthew Golden could just be the next 1-2 punch receiver combo that terrorizes secondaries after 335 combined yards from Jordan Love against New England.
