  • Colts' Jacoby Brissett: Tops 300 yards

    Brissett completed 25 of his 40 pass attempts for 319 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in the team's Week 13 loss to the Titans.

    Brissett opened the game on a positive note, completing his first five passes, highlighted by a 21-yard touchdown toss to Jack Doyle. That efficiency continued for much of the first half, as he was 10-for-14 with 132 yards and a touchdown through two quarters. However, he threw two key interceptions in the second half, which directly led to 10 points for the Titans. Despite the mistakes, Brissett averaged 8.0 yards per attempt for the first time in his last three contests and also surpassed 300 passing yards for the first time since Week 3. He'll have another chance to lead the team to a win in Week 14 in a positive matchup against the Buccaneers.

  • Kyler Murray QB | MIN

    Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Rough day against Rams

    Murray completed 19 of 34 passes for 163 yards and an interception while adding 28 rushing yards and a touchdown on four carries in Sunday's 34-7 loss to the Rams.

    The rookie QB couldn't get anything going through the air in large part due to the Rams' pass rush, which was able to sack Murray six times. He did salvage his day from a personal standpoint with his fourth rushing TD of the year, however, Murray will need better protection if he's going to rebound in Week 14 when the Cardinals host the Steelers.

  • Kyle Allen QB | BUF

    Panthers' Kyle Allen: Accounts for three TDs vs. Redskins

    Allen completed 27 of 46 pass attempts for 278 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception Sunday against the Redskins. He also carried four times for 22 yards and another touchdown in the 29-21 loss.

    Allen completed touchdown passes to D.J. Moore and Curtis Samuel while adding his first rushing score -- a 17-yard effort -- in the fourth quarter. The rookie's yardage total was his third best of the season, and he's now averaging 291.5 yards per game over the last four. In two games since his dismal effort against the Falcons a couple of weeks ago, Allen has accounted for six total touchdowns with one interception. He'll look to build on his recent success next Sunday against the Falcons.

  • Browns' Baker Mayfield: Turns it over twice in loss

    Mayfield completed 18 of 32 passes for 196 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Steelers. He added two rushing yards and lost a fumble.

    Mayfield injured his throwing hand during the first half and came back out for the third quarter wearing a glove. That hand appeared to have created an issue late in the third quarter with the Browns at midfield down by a score. Mayfield was scrambling around and going down for a sack when he had the ball stripped. The Steelers responded with a field goal to go ahead by two scores and the Browns never came back. Mayfield has improved from his earlyseason struggles and has accounted for multiple touchdowns in three of his last four games, but he's mustered under 200 yards in two of his last three contests. He's a low-risk, relatively low-reward option, which is not what you would expect with the kind of weapons they have in Cleveland. Next up is a Bengals squad that ranks in the bottom five of the league in opponent passer rating, but that is fresh off its first win of the year.

  • Sam Darnold QB | SEA

    Jets' Sam Darnold: Momentum stunted in loss

    Darnold completed 28 of 48 passes for 239 yards without a touchdown or turnover in Sunday's 22-6 loss to Cincinnati. He added nine yards on two rushing attempts.

    Darnold played better than his numbers showed, but the Jets were plagued by key drops throughout this one, including one by Robby Anderson in the end zone. Nonetheless, this is a major letdown for the second-year quarterback after he had built up momentum with a 6:1 TD:INT and a rushing touchdown over the previous two games. Darnold was limping late in the game but said his foot got stepped on and that he'll be fine moving forward. Given his recent ups and downs, Darnold will be a low-floor, high-ceiling option when the Dolphins come to town Week 14.

  • Jaguars' Gardner Minshew: Serviceable in relief

    Minshew played the second half of the Jaguars' 28-11 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday in relief of Nick Foles (coach's decision) and completed 16 of 27 passes for 147 yards with one touchdown and one interception. He also rushed twice for eight yards and had a fumble, but it was recovered by the offense.

    Minshew's numbers weren't anything to write home about, but they were exponentially better than Foles', who threw for just 93 yards and completed 50.0 percent of his throws in the first two quarters. The rookie certainly has proved capable of providing a spark in the past, however, and with Jacksonville at 4-8, it's certainly possible coach Doug Marrone opts to give Minshew another run with the starting job versus the Chargers in Week 14.

  • 49ers' Jimmy Garoppolo: Quiet in loss to Ravens

    Garoppolo completed 15 of 21 passes for 165 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Ravens. He also rushed three times for five yards and lost a fumble.

    Garoppolo went for it all on fourth-and-2 on San Francisco's opening drive and was rewarded with a 33-yard touchdown to Deebo Samuel. Unfortunately for Garoppolo, things only went downhill from there, as the 49ers finished with more yards rushing than passing. Garoppolo couldn't replicate his early fourth-down success in a critical fourth-quarter situation, as his fourth-and-1 pass to George Kittle from Baltimore's 35-yard line with 6:35 remaining fell incomplete. The Ravens milked the rest of the clock before breaking a 17-17 tie with a field goal as time expired. Garoppolo will bring a 21:10 TD:INT into another difficult road matchup against the Saints in Week 14.

  • Daniel Jones QB | IND

    Giants' Daniel Jones: Picked thrice in loss

    Jones completed 20 of 37 passes for 240 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions during Sunday's 31-13 loss to Green Bay. He added six yards on five carries.

    It was a cold, wet day in the Meadowlands and Jones took his lumps against the Packers. Still, the Giants were down just a touchdown and a field goal early in the fourth quarter when Jones sailed a third-down pass into the arms of safety Darnell Savage for a back-breaking pick-six. Jones had just two interceptions in his previous five contests, but turnovers have been an issue -- particularly with fumbles. He has multiple fumbles and/or interceptions in six of his last seven outings. He should benefit against a reeling Eagles team in a Week 14 Monday night matchup.

  • Andy Dalton QB | PHI

    Bengals' Andy Dalton: Victorious in return

    Dalton completed 22 of 37 passes for 243 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-6 win over the Jets. He also finished with minus-4 rushing yards on five attempts.

    Dalton showed no signs of rust in his first appearance since Week 8, leading the Bengals to their first win of the season. He threw a 17-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Boyd in the first quarter and would have had another passing score in the second quarter if not for a brutal drop by tight end C.J. Uzomah. Likely entrenched as the starter the rest of the way after a three-game cameo by Ryan Finley, Dalton will lead the Bengals into Cleveland in Week 14 sporting a 10:8 TD:INT.

  • Jameis Winston QB | NYG

    Buccaneers' Jameis Winston: Efficient in win

    Winston completed 21 of 33 passes for 268 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions in the Buccaneers' 28-11 win over the Jaguars on Sunday. He also rushed six times for 20 yards and lost a fumble.

    The one turnover was the only blemish on Winston's day, as the fifth-year pro otherwise played a rock-solid game. Winston surprisingly enjoyed his greatest success targeting Breshad Perriman, with whom he connected on five occasions for 87 yards, and O.J. Howard, who also was on the receiving end of five Winston completions for a change. Winston's interception-free performance was his first since Week 9 and only his fourth of the season, and he'll look to replicate that feat versus the Colts in a Week 14 interconference battle.
