Chiefs finding new ways to win, and what else we’re learning in Week 10

FOX Sports’ NFL experts provide the biggest takeaways from every Sunday game in Week 10 and what they mean for each team going forward.

Giants: There’s really no excuse anymore for the Giants to stick with Daniel Jones once they come off of their bye week. On Sunday, he threw for 71 yards in the first three quarters against the NFL’s worst defense. He was picked off in the red zone twice, including one on an inexcusable third-down throw with the Giants in range for a game-tying field goal late in the fourth quarter. His timing is off, he cannot connect with his receivers on downfield throws, and he’s holding the ball too long in the pocket. No, his backup, Drew Lock, isn’t the answer. But it’s crystal clear Jones will not be the Giants’ quarterback next season. He has thrown two touchdown passes and five interceptions in the past five games — all losses. What’s the point of letting this continue? 

Panthers: Chuba Hubbard might be the most underrated player in the NFL, though the Panthers clearly value him. Just three days after signing a four-year, $33 million deal (with just $12 million guaranteed), he ran for 153 yards against the Giants. Granted, the Giants’ run defense is awful — they’re giving up an average of 193.3 rushing yards over their past four games — but this was Hubbard’s fifth game of the season with 90 or more yards. The former fourth-round pick is the full package of power, speed and shifty moves. He’s also exactly what young QB Bryce Young needs — a weapon to take some of the pressure off him as he grows into the job. That’s why the Panthers signed Hubbard, even after using a second-round pick on injured RB Jonathon Brooks in April. Hubbard isn’t a luxury. He’s the guy who can give Young the room he needs to become the quarterback Carolina hopes he can still be. Ralph Vacchiano

49ers: This still isn’t the 49ers team that we’ve come to know from years past — not even with Christian McCaffrey back in the lineup. The defense…
