What Happened in Sports: November 7, 2021

November 7th, 2021 was remembered for the Josh Allen vs. Josh Allen game where Jaguars upset the Bills behind EDGE Josh Allen’s big game against Buffalo QB Josh Allen. Cleveland Browns got a statement win in their first game without OBJ, Patrick Mahomes came up big when it mattered after an underwhelming first Jordan Love start, and Chandler Jones became the Cardinals all-time SK leader. A few GW-FG took place as Lamar took down Minnesota in OT, the Falcons avoided another collapse, and the Chargers barely beat Philly. 

MLB announced the 2021 Gold Glove award winners, Buddy Hield hit an insane spinning half court buzzer beater, and Ricky Rubio had a record-breaking performance off the bench in MSG. J.D. Martinez declined his opt out clause while Ivica Zubac yammed on Miles Bridges that got LA’s bench going. 

The Raiders signed DeSean Jackson to replace Henry Ruggs after a disappointing loss to the Giants, the Derrick Henry-less Titans dominated the Rams on SNF thanks to back-to-back INTs, and Teddy Bridgewater dropped a DIME to lead Denver’s demolition against Dallas. Mike Gesicki was whipping out one-hand catches and Sam Darnold must’ve been seeing ghosts against the Patriots again as New England crushed Carolina.
