As I watch games from Thursday through Monday Night Football, I take notes on the things that catch my eye. From injuries to unexpected box score production, both good and bad, to scheme quirks and situations that could affect a player's production in weeks to come. By Wednesday evening, I turn these notes and the subsequent news and investigation into the Eyes of the Guru column.
On Monday mornings, I will be sharing those raw notes. There will not be a lot of analysis or in-depth description. Those things take time and will come later in the week. The goal is to give our customers an early heads up on things that could impact your important decisions for the week, so if something in the notes is particularly important to your team, you can look into it on your own and/or wait until the EOTG comes out that week to get my take.
These are my notes from week six.
Arizona Cardinals
- Antonio Hamilton Sr. down, looks like groin
- Krys Barnes active but not in the lineup. Josh Woods 3-3
Atlanta Falcons
- Four linemen account for five sacks, Calais Campbell with the 100th of his career.

- Kyle Hamilton ejected middle of the third quarter.
- Marcus Williams left late in the third, hamstring
- Justin Madubuike 4-1-2

Buffalo Bills
- Dorian Williams at WLB 6-4. Tyrel Dodson not seeing much action 2-0
- Ed Oliver shut out
Carolina Panthers
- Frankie Luvu left with a hip injury
- How does Jeremy Chinn have no stats when the Panthers were without both starting safeties?
Chicago Bears
- Jaquan Brisker 3-3-0.5 FF PD. Good overall points, but where have all the tackles gone?
- Eddie Jackson left with a foot injury
- Kyler Gordon back in action 2-2. corner Snaps
