With the NFL season being halfway through, it’s only fitting that we do a round-up of some things that have happened that you may have either missed or overlooked. What’s important is that after reading this roundup, you won’t just be informed but enlightened to what you’ve missed. It’s been a chaotic season for several reasons when it comes to the NFL, from injuries to firings to new rules being created that the president commented on. No one saw that coming, but since it did indeed happen, let’s talk about it.

So, here are FOUR THINGS THAT UTTERLY CHANGED THE SEASON SO FAR

The Cowboys’ future-altering Trade

Let’s start with Micah Parsons being traded to the Greenbay Bay Packers. Now, in his former days as a Dallas Cowboy, Micah Parsons led to team in sacks from 2021 to 2024. He was also the defensive rookie of the year in 2021. So it was nothing short of earth-shattering when the Cowboys traded him to Green Bay for defensive tackle Kenny Clark and two first-round picks in 2026 and 2027. He currently leads the league in quarterback back pressure with 40+, and he also recently broke his single-game record for sacks, getting three sacks against the Arizona Cardinals. Who won this trade? Only time will tell, but for now, all signs point to Green Bay.

Guess who’s back, back again

Second, let’s discuss the thing that 31 other fan bases have been dreading, and that’s the shocking revival of the New England Patriots. Many thought the Patriots wouldn’t be back to the top for a while, and why would you after them having nearly two decades of dominance? Sooner or later, you have to go back to being mediocre, but not if Robert Kraft has something to say about it, after the signing of. Mike Vrabel, there was a cultural shift in New England. I’m not gonna dive into the statistics, but their record speaks for itself, especially after beating the 6 and 2 Buccaneers today. The Patriots are definitely the top dog in the AFC at the moment.

Is Sir Mahomes worthy of thy crown?

Third, the famous saying “Heavy is the head that wears the crown” couldn’t be more true right now in the NFL. The Kansas Chiefs, who have been top contenders in the NFL in every recent season, are currently slugging it out at the third spot in their division. They didn’t have a hot or even good start to the season, losing their first two games of the season however theyve since battled back to a 5-4 record. hope isnt lost and if theres one thing we known about mahomes is it its not over till its over but the odds are defenitly stacked against him.

How do you say washed up in dolphin?

Fourth, have the dolphins washed up? Ever since the Miami Dolphins saw success with Tyreek Hill, there have been problems brewing internally with the organization. It seems like every season, we would see little cracks in the armour that is the Miami Dolphins, from Tyreek Hill’s comments to the media to a QB with unaddressed ability issues, and to top it off, a questionable coaching staff. It seems like these things have all finally bubbled to the surface, causing the dolphins’ 3-7 record this season seems a rebuild year is imminent, but only time will tell.

Mr. Gadel, check your messages. The President sent you something

To wrap things up, there were changes to the game of football and how it’s played that I would be remiss if I didn’t discuss. First off, they approved a new kickoff rule to increase competitiveness, as well as the use of a new camera for first-down measurements. You may have heard there was a vote to ban the tush push play in the end, but it got voted to stay because it failed to get the necessary 24 votes. Also, they have started discussing the use of AI for officiating, so overall, the NFL season is already halfway through, but there’s still a whole half of a season left for even more surprises.
