“UNREAL”: NFL Can’t Believe What Colts’ Jonathan Taylor Is Doing This Season
Jonathan Taylor has turned the NFL season into his personal highlight reel, and even fans and analysts are running out of superlatives. His latest masterpiece, 153 yards and three touchdowns in a 38-14 win over the Titans, has pushed both the Indianapolis Colts and Taylor’s MVP campaign into the national spotlight.
The explosive back dazzled with an 80-yard touchdown run that instantly went viral, his fastest sprint since entering the league. The play not only tied a franchise record but also encapsulated the dominance of a player making football’s toughest position look effortless. At 7-1, Indianapolis sits atop the league standings, led by an offense that has found its rhythm behind Taylor’s historic form.
Taylor’s production puts him among elite company. He’s tied Hall of Famer Lenny Moore for second in franchise career touchdowns and sits just one shy of Edgerrin James. This season alone, he’s scored 14 times while averaging nearly six yards per carry, numbers rarely seen in today’s pass-heavy NFL. Teammates and fans have responded accordingly, chanting “MVP” as he continues to rewrite franchise and league records.
At Lucas Oil Stadium, Taylor’s ability to turn routine carries into breakaway runs has transformed the Colts into an offensive juggernaut. His 80-yard dash against Tennessee, aided by stellar blocking and sheer acceleration, sent the home crowd into a frenzy. Analysts like ESPN’s Stephen Holder have noted that the speed and balance Taylor displayed make him not only the best running back in football but one of the league’s most feared weapons overall.

Each week seems to bring a new chapter in Taylor’s rise, and opposing defenses continue to find no answers. “Unreal” has become the trending word for what Indianapolis fans are witnessing, which is a a season so dominant it feels destined to end with MVP history.
Eagles HC Nick Sirianni Opens Up About Trade Deadline Ahead of Bye Week
The Philadelphia Eagles head into their bye week with the defending Super Bowl champions sporting a 6-2 record while sitting comfortably in first place in the NFC East division standings. The closest to the Eagles in the division is the Dallas Cowboys at 3-4-1, which shows the lead Philadelphia has when they return for Week 10 on the road against the Green Bay Packers.
Even though the Eagles are in a good position to defend their title right now, as it may be a foregone conclusion that they win the division title and secure one of the top seeds in the NFC, Philadelphia is far from perfect and might try to shake things up ahead of the NFL trade deadline on Nov. 4.
Eagles’ Nick Sirianni Reveals Thoughts on NFL Trade Deadline

With the Eagles potentially making a move ahead of the NFL trade deadline, Philadelphia’s situation has become a hot topic across the league.
On Monday, Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni spoke to the media and shared his thoughts on the trade deadline and how he’s always in “constant communication” with general manager Howie Roseman.
“Regardless of the scenario, whether we have a game, whether we have a short week with a trade deadline coming up, always constant communication with Howie [Roseman] about everything,” Sirianni said. “We find time to do the things that are necessary to help the team win, help the team get better, whatever it may be.
“Obviously, this week’s very important for us as far as our self-scout and identifying some different things, and always going to be a busy week. But I wouldn’t say because we don’t have a game this upcoming week, it’s any different, because you just find the time to do the things necessary to help get better and help the team win.”
With one week left until the buzzer sounds on the trade deadline, things could get interesting for Philadelphia, as the team’s brass assesses whether it is time to shake things up or stand pat.
All the attention right now is directed toward star wide receiver A.J. Brown, who appears to be still not happy with his role with the Eagles, which he has made abundantly clear in a very public fashion.
Will the Eagles Trade A.J. Brown?

With a week to go before the buzzer sounds on the NFL trade deadline, the consensus seems to be that the Eagles will not be trading the disgruntled Brown. He has made it clear on multiple occasions that he’s not happy with how he’s being used by the team from week to week, which has caused a distraction in the locker room and has been a constant storyline.
However, the team is sitting at 6-2 and well on its way to winning the NFC East division title and being a force to be reckoned with once again in the NFL playoffs. That said, Philadelphia does seem compelled to move Brown, but that could change quickly if the right trade call comes in before Nov. 4.
