ymakerpi8d

There's so much that happens every week in the NFL that you could be forgiven for not nece sarily having a handle on all the major developments. Lucky for you, that's why we're here.From now until the end of the season, we'll spend every Tuesday updating you on the current state of both the playoff picture and the race for the No. 1 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft; as well as making sure to provide some stats and notes and tidbits from that shed light on what happened and what mattered in the prior week's games.Playoff PicturePerhaps this week's biggest winner in the AFC was the , who saw the division rival lose to the , extending their AFC East lead to two games; and the lose to the , all but ensuring the Pats will not have to travel to Arrowhead Stadium to play at any point during the playoffs. New England still has to maintain its one-game lead over the in order to secure home-field advantage throughout the AFC playoffs, but the Pats are in a good spot right now.Also in a good spot: the ! How about that trade, huh? The Steelers are in the playoffs as of this writing by virtue of owning the three-team tiebreaker with the and . The offense is still untrustworthy but that defense is incredible. Buffalo now has a tenuous hold on a wild card spot, with several teams sitting just one game back.  Over in the NFC, the ' win over Dallas combined with the ' lo s to the Steelers and ' lo s to the created a bit of separation in the wild card hunt. Seattle and Minnesota have  Michael Bandy Jersey pretty solid leads right now. Green Bay still has a one-game lead over the Vikings for the NFC North lead; and the maintained hold of first place in the NFC East despite having the same record as the , because Dallas won the matchup between the two teams a couple of weeks ago. New Orleans got some help from the Packers, who beat the Panthers and allowed the to maintain a two-game lead in the division. The maintained first place in the conference, but the are now hot on their tail and just one game back.Race for the bottomHere's how the top 10 in the 2020 NFL Draft would shake out at this moment: (0-9)Washington (1-8) (2-8) (2-7) (2-7) (2-7)Browns (3-6) (3-6) (3-6) (3-6-1)Woo boy are the Bengals a disaster. They've now been outscored by 122 points this season, more than every team except the Dolphins. It's obviously difficult to pinpoint a surefire win on their remaining schedule, but they do have some opportunities: the Jets in Week 13, the Dolphins in Week 16, and the Browns in Weeks 13 and 17 stand out as potential spots where Cincy can get off the schneid.  Washington is the only team within one game of the Bengals, and on Monday interim coach Bill Callahan named the team's starting quarterback for the remainder of the year. Haskins is unquestionably the team's quarterback of the future given that they just invested a first-round pick in him, but he has not Kyle Van Noy Jersey  looked ready in any of his appearances and Washington should remain uncompetitive for the rest of the season.The Week in ReviewWe'll use this space to give you one stat, one note, one nugget, one piece of information from each of this week's games. It won't nece sarily explain the game's outcome, but the hope is it will make you a smarter, more-informed football fan for having read it.Raiders 26, 24:With their win against the division rival Chargers last Thursday, the Raiders pushed their record to 5-4, thus ensuring they will finish this season with a better mark than they did last year. That's commendable. But while the Raiders actually have a shot to make some noise due to their current circumstances; we shouldn't nece sarily be mistaking them for one of the top teams in the AFC. Oakland has been outscored by 32 points this season, a differential that yields an expectation of 3.7 wins. The Raiders have obviously out-performed that so far, and it's not difficult to pinpoint the reason why: Oakland is 5-1 in one-score games so far this season, meaning all of their wins have come in close games. Meanwhile, they have lost three games by double-digit margins. It's therefore likely that the Raiders are not as good as they look.  Ravens 49, Bengals 13: You've probably seen these numbers floating around, but they're worth nothing here anyway. has now made 16 regular-season starts in the NFL, and his numbers are absolutely bonkers: 13-3 record, 260-413 (63.0 percent), 3,150 yards (7.6 YPA), 20 TD, 8 INT, 94.4 Rtg, 225 carries, 1,258 yards, 10 TD. There's never been anybody like this guy. He has more 100-yard rushing games this season than , , , , , , , and more. The only players in the league to reach the mark more often than are , , , , and . He's done all that and he's got a 101.7 pa ser rating this year. 20, 13: streak of 136 consecutive starts came to an end with this game. It took broken bones in his back to keep him off the field; and considering Stafford played in just 13  Drue Tranquill Jersey of a po sible 32 games during the first two years of his career, it's pretty remarkable how durable he's turned out to be. He started eight and a half seasons worth of games before mi sing a start due to injury. Consider the quarterbacks Detroit started in the nine years prior to Stafford's arrival: Joey Harrington (55), Jon Kitna (36), Charlie Batch (24), Mike McMahon (7), (7), Daunte Culpepper (5), Jeff Garcia (5), Ty Detmer (4), and Stoney Case (1). It's safe to say Stafford's been the preferable option.Buccaneers 30, Cardinals 27: Pretty much the entire Cardinals pa sing offense runs through the slot. It's not that surprising given that their top two receivers ( and ) are primarily slot guys, but the numbers are staggering. On throws to players aligned in the slot, has completed 73.1 percent of his pa ses at 7.49 yards per attempt; on all other throws, he's at just 57.7 percent and 6.82 yards per attempt. Arizona needs to start testing other areas of the field if they want this offense to be as succe sful as Murray's skill set leads one to believe it could be when operating at peak efficiency.  Titans 35, Chiefs 32: It might be time to discu s whether Kansas City's defense is bad enough to undermine its season. The Chiefs rank 20th in yards allowed per game and 19th in points allowed per game, but they've been helped out by poor opponent field position and they still rank 23rd in points allowed per drive. They've also rarely forced turnovers and they're one of just 12 teams allowing a score on at least 39 percent Will Clapp Jersey  of opponent po se sions. According to Sharp Football Stats, Kansas City is also allowing opponents a , eight percent worse than the league average and second-worst in the league to only the Packers. Patrick Mahomes was good enough last season to overcome a similarly-bad defense. Is the same true this year?Jets 34, Giants 27: It's not the easiest thing in the world to find a silver lining in this disaster of a Giants season, but let's talk about rookie wideout . A fifth-round pick out of Auburn, Slayton has 27 catches for 394 yards and five touchdowns in just eight games. Since the entered the league back in 2002, only 19 wideouts drafted in the fifth round or later have recorded 27 catches in their entire rookie season, only 13 have reached 394 receiving yards, and only six have caught five or more touchdowns. Those six: Marquese Colston, , Johnny Knox, , , and Slayton. Colston is the only one of that group to average more receiving yards per game than Slayton (49.3); and remember, Slayton still has six games left to play.Falcons 26, Saints 9: has started 209 games for the Saints. Sunday's lo s to the Falcons was just the 21st time he has thrown for fewer than 300 yards not thrown a touchdown pa s. Two of those 21 games saw Brees throw only five pa  Junior Seau Jersey ses, so it was really the 19th time in 207 starts, which means these games have accounted for around 9.2 percent of Brees' total games in New Orleans. The Saints have a 7-12 record in these games, which is actually somehow better than I would have expected. Four of those seven wins, though, have come since 2017.  Browns 19, Bills 16: is an absolute baller. Shadowing all game on Sunday, White allowed just four completions for 39 yards on 11 throws in his direction. On the season, White has yielded a truly disgusting pa ser rating of 49.4, fifth-best among 120 corners who have played at least 100 snaps in coverage. He's yet to allow a
