NFL Notebook, Week 6: Cam Newton’s future, fun 49ers, awards and more

Cam Newton’s uncertain future with the Panthers, the fun 49ers, a heating up trade market and more come to life in the NFL Notebook from Week 6.

I learned a lot this past weekend taking in NFL Week 6 but one thing stands out more than the rest: Not even a coach bus can stop me.

Before you jump to insane conclusions, I spent all of NFL Sunday in Week 6 on a coach bus. Thanks to the glorious gifts of NFL RedZone and wireless internet, I didn’t miss a second of action on my eight-hour ride to Gainesville, FL from New Orleans. (Great city, by the way, I highly recommend it.)

Anyway, you bet I’m itching to discuss what I saw (and didn’t see) with you. Below are some of my favorite aspects of a wild Week 6 in the NFL:

• The Jets becoming the first 0-4 team to beat Dallas since 1999.
• The nearing conclusion to the careers of the first two picks in 2015 (Jameis Winston, Marcus Mariota)
• Lamar Jackson being the first player to pass for over 200 yards and run for over 150 yards

And that’s what wasn’t included in this week’s NFL Notebook. For the latest takes, opinions and beliefs about everything else that went down his past weekend, read on about:

• Which former MVP has his days suddenly numbered
• Which players could join him on the trade market
• The problem with Baker Mayfield
• Why Jalen Ramsey and the Rams almost ruined this notebook

To say that it’s been an incredibly busy week throughout the league would be an immense understatement. But before we get into the great teams, good players or anything positive that might be said, we start with the Toilet Bowl, a matchup of unmatched ineptitude.
