Preview: Lions at Bears

Nov 16, 2017

Sitting outside of the NFC playoff picture with seven games remaining, the Detroit Lions will go for their third consecutive victory when they visit the Chicago Bears in a matchup of longtime NFC Central rivals. The Lions have answered a three-game skid with back-to-back wins to stay within two games of the division-leading Minnesota Vikings.

Detroit quarterback Matthew Stafford had two of his worst games of the season as the teams split a pair of matchups in 2016, one reason why coach Jim Caldwell is blocking out talking of the postseason. “I’ve told you guys that a thousand times, and it’s a fact,” Caldwell told reporters this week. “It’s one game. If that game just so happens to be the trigger game somewhere down the line, then it’s one game. So that’s all we focus in on.” Rookie Mitchell Trubisky, the No. 2 overall selection in this year's draft, will make his sixth straight start for Chicago, which has been limited to 17 points or fewer in seven of nine games. "I like what I'm seeing," Trubisky said. "We just need to continue to develop that rhythm and timing and keep building our chemistry."

TV: 1 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Lions -3. O/U: 41

ABOUT THE LIONS (5-4): Stafford had posted his highest passer ratings of the season over the last two weeks, but he registered his lowest of 2016 (56.8) in a 17-14 loss at Chicago. Although the Lions avenged that defeat with a three-point win over the Bears in December, Stafford struggled again and had one scoring pass versus four interceptions in the two meetings versus Chicago. Golden Tate, who was benched in the loss at Chicago last season, is Stafford's top target with 56 receptions, including 27 catches for 392 yards and a pair of touchdowns in the past four games. Detroit's ground game continues to sputter, ranking 29th with an average of 82.6 yards.

ABOUT THE BEARS (3-6): Trubisky is coming off the best game of his brief tenure, completing 60 percent of his passes for the first time and throwing for a career-best 297 yards with one touchdown in a 23-16 home loss to the Green Bay Packers. The injury-ravaged wide receiver corps received a boost from recently acquired Dontrelle Inman, who had six receptions for 88 yards in his Chicago debut. Second-year running back Jordan Howard, who has rushed for 716 yards and four scores, ran for 197 yards on 36 carries in the two meetings versus Detroit last season. Chicago is tied for seventh in the league with 26 sacks and ranks ninth with 315.3 yards allowed per game.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Stafford has 22 TDs and 17 interceptions in 14 matchups against Chicago.

2. Bears LB Danny Trevathan (calf), who missed last week's game, did not practice Wednesday.

3. Detroit has won seven of of the past eight meetings in the series, but the past five have been decided by a combined 19 points.

Preview: Redskins at Saints

Nov 16, 2017

The New Orleans Saints continue to streak toward an NFC South crown as the offense catches up to the young defense. The Saints will try to push their winning streak to eight straight on Sunday when they host the slumping Washington Redskins.

New Orleans is tied for fifth in the league in scoring defense (18.3 points) and watched the offense total 77 points in the last two wins as the running back tandem of Mark Ingram and rookie Alvin Kamara takes the pressure off quarterback Drew Brees. "We're actually committing to it, as a coaching staff, everybody's buying into it as players," Ingram told reporters of the running game. "The big boys up front did a great job executing and the coaches did a great job of calling the runs." The Redskins will try to stop that offense with a defense that surrendered at least 33 points in three of the last four games. "We've got to get going because we were just so lackadaisical," cornerback Josh Norman told reporters after last week's 38-30 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. "We didn't have (anything) today. After three scores I was just like 'Wow. What is going on?' We didn't have what we were capable of doing every single week in and week out. That's the most frustrating part about it."
TV: 1 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Saints -7.5. O/U: 51

ABOUT THE REDSKINS (4-5): Kirk Cousins threw for 327 yards in last week's loss without tight end Jordan Reed (hamstring) and wide receiver Terrelle Pryor, and he could be without the duo again this week. “It’s just a lingering thing,” Reed told reporters said. “The only way for it to heal is to rest it. We don’t have time for that right now. So it can be confusing and tricky to try and get back out there. The way I hurt it, I was decelerating. So it wasn’t really opening up, it was slowing down. Now every time I try to slow down, I can feel it a little bit." Running back Chris Thompson leads Washington with 494 receiving yards and is tied for the lead in receiving TDs (three) with Josh Doctson.

ABOUT THE SAINTS (9-2): Ingram and Kamara each went over 100 yards and the team totaled six touchdowns on the ground as New Orleans came within 10 rushing yards of a franchise record with 298 in a 47-10 win at Buffalo last week. Ingram (672) and Kamara (417) are already over 1,000 yards combined and Brees is completing 71.7 percent of his passes. "I don't think we've played our best football," Brees told reporters. "I know that the challenge is only becoming greater as we go along here (in this season). The ultimate goal of this season was not to be 7-2. The ultimate goal is to continue to put ourselves in position to win the division and go to the playoffs and see what happens. I like the track we are on. I think we're an ascending team."

EXTRA POINTS

1. Saints leading tackler LB A.J. Klein (ankle) did not practice on Thursday and is questionable.

2. The Redskins crushed New Orleans 47-14 at home on the most recent meeting on Nov. 15, 2015.

3. Washington placed RB Rob Kelley (ankle) and LB Will Compton (foot) on injured reserve this week.

Preview: Chiefs at Giants

Gracenote
Nov 17, 2017

After limping into their bye week, the AFC West-leading Kansas City Chiefs hope to take advantage of a soft second-half schedule and pull away from the pack. That stretch begins with a trip to face the struggling New York Giants on Sunday.


Kansas City was the best team in the NFL during a dominant 5-0 start, but it has stumbled to three losses in its last four games - including a 28-17 defeat at Dallas last time out. "We’ve got a lot of room to improve,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid told reporters. “We're not good enough right now, so we’ve got to keep working, so that's where it always starts. That's the one great thing about football, you always have something you can get better at." The Giants have plenty of areas in which they can improve – they’ve been outscored by 88 points during a 1-8 start and are coming off a 31-21 loss at previously winless San Francisco, which prompted a candid meeting. "We were brutally honest with each other," New York coach Ben McAdoo told reporters. "We'll see how the players respond, but we also talked about the great opportunity in front of us."
TV: 1 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Chiefs -10.5. O/U: 46.5


ABOUT THE CHIEFS (6-3): Kansas City still boasts the No. 5 offense in the league, but the unit has slowed down some after a hot start led by Alex Smith and rookie running back Kareem Hunt. The Chiefs have totaled fewer than 325 yards in three of their last four games, and they’ve committed three turnovers in the past two contests after just one giveaway in their first seven games. The defense is a big concern for Kansas City, which ranks 30th in total defense but 19th in scoring defense thanks to 13 takeaways.
ABOUT THE GIANTS (1-8): Eli Manning will make his 209th consecutive start at quarterback, but it seems more and more likely that his tenure in New York is winding down. The Giants have the 28th-ranked scoring offense in the league, and they’ve been even worse on the other side of the ball. New York ranks 31st in total defense and has surrendered at least 400 total yards in four straight games and five of the last six.


EXTRA POINTS
1. Reid’s teams are 16-2 in games following a week off.
2. Giants rookie TE Evan Engram has caught a touchdown pass in four straight contests.
3. Chiefs TE Travis Kelce has a touchdown reception in each of his last three games.

Preview: Buccaneers at Dolphins

Gracenote
Nov 16, 2017

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Miami Dolphins sure look weathered after an unexpected bye in Week 1 forced the teams to navigate their way through the season without any semblance of a break. With injuries accumulating at a rapid pace, the beleaguered Buccaneers and Dolphins look to get back on track at the other's expense Sunday in Miami.

"I'm sure both teams, with the number of games we played and the number of guys both teams have banged up, I’m sure both teams would prefer to have a few days off," Tampa Bay coach Dirk Koetter told the Miami Herald. "That's just not the hand we were dealt." The Buccaneers had dropped five in a row before Ryan Fitzpatrick stepped in for an injured Jameis Winston (shoulder) and engineered two long scoring drives in Sunday's 15-10 win over his former team, the New York Jets. The 34-year-old Fitzpatrick has thrown five touchdown passes over his last two encounters with Miami, which has yielded at 40 or more points on two occasions during its three-game losing skid and fell to 0-3 on prime-time television with a lopsided 45-21 setback to Carolina on Monday. "This isn't acceptable. It's unacceptable," said Dolphins Pro Bowl defensive end Cameron Wake, who saw his team's top-10 run defense gashed for 294 yards on the ground by the Panthers.

TV: 1 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Pick. O/U: 40.5

ABOUT THE BUCCANEERS (3-6): Pro Bowl wide receiver Mike Evans admitted he made a "bone-headed play" when he hit New Orleans rookie cornerback Marshon Lattimore from behind on Nov. 5, igniting fireworks between the NFC South teams and resulting in a one-game suspension for him. "If we were winning, I don't think I do that," the 24-year-old Evans said. "... I will never do that again. I like playing with passion and effort. But I've got to be calmer. I've go to be smarter." Tight end Cameron Brate, who likely is pretty smart considering he went to Harvard, is tied with Evans in touchdown receptions (four) -- but has just two catches for 19 yards over his last two games. Doug Martin hasn't fared much better in that span, rushing 28 times for just 58 yards for the Buccaneers' 28th-ranked ground game.

ABOUT THE DOLPHINS (4-5): While Miami's defense has come under fire of late, its pedestrian offense is scoring an NFL-worst 15.2 points per game while averaging a second-worst 275.0 yards per contest. "There is a lot of football left. The pieces are in the locker room, I truly believe that," said Jay Cutler, who has tossed nine touchdown passes over his last four games. Familiar target Jarvis Landry (NFL-best 61 receptions) has found the end zone in five of his last six, but the wideout is expected to be shadowed by four-time Pro Bowl selection and former Dolphin Brent Grimes on Sunday. The 34-year-old Cutler has utilized his running backs in the passing game a bit more since Jay Ajayi was traded to Philadelphia earlier this month, with Kenyan Drake rolling up 196 scrimmage yards in the past two games.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Wake has 13 sacks and six forced fumbles in his past 13 games at home.

2. Tampa Bay LB Lavonte David recorded 15 of his team-leading 51 tackles over the last two contests.

3. Dolphins TE Julius Thomas has reeled in a touchdown reception in back-to-back games.

Preview: Bills at Chargers

Nov 17, 2017

Philip Rivers never has missed a start since becoming a first-string NFL quarterback, and he hopes to stretch the streak to 186 in a row when the Los Angeles Chargers host the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. Rivers self-reported a concussion on Monday but is rapidly improving, and the expectation is that he will be on the field against the Bills.

Buffalo has a new starting signal-caller as rookie Nathan Peterman was elevated over running threat Tyrod Taylor despite the team's 5-4 record. "I just expect to win every game I'm out there," Peterman said at a press conference. "I think that's the ultimate goal. What I measure myself on as a quarterback is, did we win? It doesn't matter about stats or anything like that." The surprise move complicated preparations for the Chargers as they began the week focused on Taylor before shifting to a quick study on Peterman. "You always have to know the first guy and the second guy," Los Angeles defensive coordinator Gus Bradley told reporters. "I guess what's unique this week is really completely different styles. So it puts a strain on us that way a little bit, but it's been going good thus far."

TV: 4:05 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Chargers -4.5. O/U: 43.5

ABOUT THE BILLS (5-4): Buffalo ranks just 28th in total offense (292 yards per game) and 30th in passing offense (180.4), and coach Sean McDermott is hoping that punching up the attack will lead to more victories. "It's about becoming a better team. That's what we're here for," McDermott said at a press conference. "We are 5-4. I understand that, and we are in the playoff hunt at this point. It is always, and will (be) for the time that I'm here, be about becoming the best team that we can possibly become." The Bills lead the NFL in takeaway margin (plus-11) and the defense has received stellar play from safety Micah Hyde, who is second in the league with five interceptions.

ABOUT THE CHARGERS (3-6): The pass rush has been superb with 29 sacks (tied for second in the NFL), and stars Joey Bosa (9.5) and Melvin Ingram (8.5) likely are salivating at the thought of pressuring a rookie who is making his first start. Safety Tre Boston (career-best three interceptions) recorded his first multi-interception effort in last Sunday's loss to Jacksonville and has been a solid surprise for a unit that ranks ninth in scoring defense (19.1 points). Rivers has passed for seven touchdowns in his last three meetings with the Bills and became the eighth quarterback in history to surpass 4,000 career completions last week, reaching 4,005.

EXTRA POINTS
1. The Chargers hold a 22-10-1 series advantage and have won the last two meetings.
2. Buffalo RB LeSean McCoy (595 rushing yards) has rushed for just 74 yards over his last two games, with 36 coming on one carry.
3. Los Angeles RB Melvin Gordon gained just 27 yards on 16 carries against Jacksonville after piling up a season-best 132 against New England in the club's previous game.

PREDICTION: Chargers 17, Bills 6

Preview: Bengals at Broncos

Nov 17, 2017

The Denver Broncos have been free-falling ever since their bye week and look to put on the brakes when they host the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. Denver started the season strong, winning three of its first four games, but finds itself in the AFC West basement thanks to a five-game slide that has followed its Week 5 bye.

The Broncos will need a better performance on Sunday from their defense, which has been shredded for a total of 92 points in losses to Philadelphia and New England the last two weeks. Cincinnati is coming off a 24-20 setback at Tennessee, which was its second straight overall loss and third in a row on the road. The Bengals continue to have problems running the ball, gaining only 53 yards on the ground against the Titans to lower their league-worst rushing average to 70.1. Rookie Joe Mixon leads Cincinnati with just 321 rushing yards but has run for a touchdown in back-to-back contests.

TV: 4:25 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Broncos -2.5. O/U: 39

ABOUT THE BENGALS (3-6): Injuries notwithstanding, Cincinnati hopes to keep all its key players in the game Sunday after having one ejected each of the last two weeks. Top receiver A.J. Green was tossed in the team's Week 9 defeat at Jacksonville for participating in a fight while linebacker Vontaze Burfict got kicked out of the loss to the Titans for making contact with an official. Green's next game with at least 100 receiving yards will be the 32nd of his career, which will break a tie with Chad Johnson for the most in franchise history.

ABOUT THE BRONCOS (3-6): Denver has had difficulty scoring since posting a 42-17 victory over Dallas in Week 2, eclipsing the 20-point mark just once in its last seven contests. Quarterback Brock Osweiler was a full participant in Thursday's practice after being limited a day earlier due to a sore right shoulder. Emmanuel Sanders, who recorded 137 receiving yards last week, has made five touchdown catches in his last three meetings with the Bengals.

EXTRA POINTS

1. All three of the Broncos' victories this season have come at home.

2. Cincinnati CB Adam Jones (concussion) and NT Pat Sims (calf) have not practiced and likely will miss Sunday's game.

3. Denver has won the last two meetings and is 21-9 in the all-time series.

Preview: Eagles at Cowboys

Nov 16, 2017

The Dallas Cowboys will enter Sunday night's home tilt versus the surging Philadelphia Eagles without star running back Ezekiel Elliott, and perhaps decorated Pro Bowl offensive tackle Tyron Smith. After seeing his team's offense remain stuck in neutral without both studs last week, quarterback Dak Prescott may need to outduel fellow second-year quarterback Carson Wentz at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

After throwing for 15 scores in his previous seven games, Prescott used his legs with a play-action touchdown run in Dallas' 27-7 setback to Atlanta last week. The 24-year-old only threw for 176 yards - and for a 5.87 average - due in large part to constant pressure, with defensive end Adrian Clayborn recording six of his team's eight sacks to disrupt any offensive continuity. While the Cowboys saw their three-game winning streak halted, Philadelphia has emerged victorious in seven in a row and could put a stranglehold on the NFC East title should it avenge last season's 29-23 overtime loss in Dallas. Wentz threw for just 202 yards in that outing, but the 24-year-old has thrown 17 of his NFL-best 23 touchdown passes in the last five games and guides the league's second-ranked offense at 31.4 points per contest.

TV: 8:30 p.m. ET, NBC. LINE: Eagles -3.5. O/U: 48.5

ABOUT THE EAGLES (8-1): Offseason acquisition Alshon Jeffery has three touchdowns in his last two games and also found the end zone in two of his last three meetings with Dallas. Zach Ertz aims to return from a two-game absence due to an ailing hamstring and pick up where he left off, as the 27-year-old has five touchdowns in his last four contests. Ertz leads all NFC tight ends in receptions (43), yards (528) and TDs (six) this season and reeled in 13 catches for 139 yards and two touchdowns versus the Cowboys last season.

ABOUT THE COWBOYS (5-4): While Elliott's absence is due to his suspension for violating the league's personal conduct policy, Smith could sit out his second straight game as a result of a groin injury that prevented him from practicing on Wednesday and Thursday. Byron Bell received first-team reps in his place in favor of Chaz Green, who started and struggled at Atlanta. Alfred Morris rushed five times on the opening drive last week and finished with 53 yards on 11 carries. Dez Bryant has been slowed by an ailing knee, limiting him to just 39 yards receiving in two of his last three games.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Philadelphia DE Brandon Graham, who leads the team with five sacks this season, had just eight tackles in two meetings with Dallas in 2016.

2. Cowboys DE DeMarcus Lawrence leads the NFL with a career-best 11.5 sacks, but will be tested by Eagles RT Lane Johnson.

3. Philadelphia bolstered its depth along the offensive line by signing former New York Giants T Will Beatty to a one-year contract this week.
