This Week In The NFL.

[Greenbacks]

Preview: Houston at Green Bay.

When: 1:00 PM ET, Sunday, December 4, 2016
Where: Lambeau Field, Green Bay, Wisconsin

The Green Bay Packers are looking at a very slim margin for error if they hope to return to the playoffs, and the injury situation is not making life any easier. The Houston Texans, who visit the Packers on Sunday, are in a better spot as the leaders of the AFC South but did not do themselves any favors with losses in each of their last two games.
Green Bay appeared to be in disarray while allowing an average of 38.3 points during a four-game slide but looked like a different team in a 27-13 win at Philadelphia on Monday night. "There's a big difference between 4-7 and 5-6, for sure," Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers told reporters. "But I hope there's not a ton of relief setting in because we still have a lot of things in front of us we'd like to accomplish. This was a step in the right direction in a game we needed to take care of business, but we have a short week, and we've got Houston coming in, and we've got to have another similar performance." The Texans are one-half game in front of Tennessee and one ahead of Indianapolis in the division after another poor offensive showing last week in a 21-13 home loss to San Diego, and they will visit the Titans and Colts over the final four weeks. "I know we've had some ups and we've had some downs, and you'd like to see steady improvement, but sometimes that doesn't take place,” Houston quarterback Brock Osweiler told reporters. “I'm very optimistic about what this team can accomplish because this is a damn good football team."

TV: 1 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Packers - 6.5. O/U: 45.5

ABOUT THE TEXANS (6-5): Osweiler is under heavy criticism after throwing three interceptions in the loss to the Chargers, and his average of 5.77 yards per attempt is the worst among qualifying quarterbacks in the NFL. "Our job as an offensive unit is to score touchdowns and put together multiple drives that result in touchdowns every single week," Osweiler told reporters. "And we've struggled with that this year. And I can't quite put my thumb on that, but I will certainly always stand up and point the finger at myself." Coach Bill O'Brien dismissed the idea of replacing Osweiler, who signed a $72 million free-agent deal in the offseason, with backup Tom Savage.

ABOUT THE PACKERS (5-6): Green Bay came out of its victory on Monday night banged up at key positions, with Rodgers battling a hamstring strain and linebacker Clay Matthews suffering a separated shoulder. Coach Mike McCarthy gave the team the day off from practice on Wednesday to let everyone rest and does not see the team making big adjustments offensively to accommodate for Rodgers' decreased mobility. "We'll see how he is, movement-wise," McCarthy told reporters. "But with that, you've got to make sure he's got more answers for later in the time clock of the play then he did when he can't move out of the pocket."

EXTRA POINTS

1. Packers DT Mike Pennel is facing a possible 10-game suspension for a second violation of the league's substance-abuse policy.

2. Houston LB John Simon (chest) is questionable for Sunday.

3. Green Bay WR Davante Adams is averaging 22.2 yards per reception over his last three games.

It's 75 degrees here in Jacksonville for Jaguars-Broncos.

 

[Greenbacks]

Preview: Denver at Jacksonville.

When: 1:00 PM ET, Sunday, December 4, 2016
Where: EverBank Field, Jacksonville, Florida

After enjoying his best statistical performance of his young career last week, Trevor Siemian is uncertain if he'll be under center on Sunday as the Denver Broncos visit the skidding Jacksonville Jaguars. Siemian threw for a personal-best 368 yards and three touchdowns in a 30-27 loss to Kansas City, but sustained a foot injury on the first possession of overtime that has prevented him from practicing on Wednesday and Thursday.
Rookie Paxton Lynch could be in line for his second career start should Siemian be unable to shed his walking boot for the Broncos, who have dropped two of three to fall two games behind the surging Oakland Raiders in the AFC West. Jacksonville has lost six in a row overall to once again make itself comfortable in the basement of the AFC South and hasn't won at EverBank Field since routing Indianapolis on Dec. 13. "We would love to win at home," quarterback Blake Bortles said. "It has been painful. It has been rough not winning at home. I know the fans aren't happy about it and neither are we." The 24-year-old Bortles has thrown for 11 touchdowns in his last five games, but was limited to just 126 yards passing in a 28-21 loss at Buffalo on Sunday.

TV: 1 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Broncos -3.5. O/U: 40

ABOUT THE BRONCOS (7-4): After picking up Super Bowl MVP honors in February, Von Miller could add another prestigious title should he continue on his impressive path: NFL Defensive Player of the Year. Miller recorded a career high-tying three of his league-best 12.5 sacks versus the Chiefs and is inching closer to his personal best of 18.5 (2012). Rookie running back Devontae Booker has proven to be a workhorse over the last two weeks, recording 24 carries in each contest while totaling 155 yards. He'll look to exploit a Jaguars' defense that is being gouged for 116 yards on the ground.

ABOUT THE JAGUARS (2-9): Defensive tackle Malik Jackson made no bones about looking forward to his Rocky Mountain reunion. "This is the game," said Jackson, who signed with Jacksonville in March after spending four seasons in Denver. "When I first signed here, I realized we were playing Denver this year and I just looked forward to it, the old team, to show those guys who I am on another team." Jackson recorded two sacks last week versus the Bills and his 4.5 on the season are just 1.5 shy of the career he he set in 2013.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Jacksonville's T.J. Yeldon (ankle) was a limited participant in practice on Thursday while fellow RB Chris Ivory (hamstring) missed his second straight session.

2. Denver WR Emmanuel Sanders recorded 162 receiving yards last week, nearly eclipsing the total of his previous three games (169).

3. The Jaguars have an NFL-worst minus-15 in turnover differential this season.

 

[Greenbacks]

Preview: Los Angeles at New England.

When: 1:00 PM ET, Sunday, December 4, 2016
Where: Gillette Stadium, Foxborough, Massachusetts

Tom Brady can become the all-time winningest quarterback in NFL history on Sunday, but he will have to do so without his favorite receiving target. Brady and the New England Patriots host the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday without the services of tight end Rob Gronkowski after reports emerged Thursday that he will undergo back surgery.
Gronkowski reportedly is dealing with a herniated disk and the estimated time for his recovery is six to eight weeks, which could end his season unless New England advances to the Super Bowl. Brady is going for career win No. 201 to eclipse a tie with Peyton Manning while keeping the Patriots in the driver's seat for the No. 1 seed in the AFC. The Rams feature the league's lowest-scoring offense at 15.5 points per game and appear ill-equipped to keep up with New England's high-powered offense, especially with rookie Jared Goff making his third career start. "They change stuff pretty consistently and do what they do really well for a long time," Goff said. "It’s proven results. You don’t really know what to expect going in."

TV: 1 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Patriots -13.5. O/U: 44.5

ABOUT THE RAMS (4-7): Los Angeles went four straight games scoring 10 points or fewer prior to last week's 49-21 loss in New Orleans, a game in which it did all its scoring in the first half behind three scoring passes from Goff. The No. 1 overall pick in this year's draft has 348 yards in his first two games and is not getting much help from running back Todd Gurley, who is averaging 3.1 yards per carry and has rushed for only two touchdowns in his last eight games. Kenny Britt has been the top receiving target by a wide margin with 54 receptions for 788 yards and four scores. The Rams' defense features a standout defensive tackle in Aaron Donald and ranked seventh against the pass at 227.5 yards per game.

ABOUT THE PATRIOTS (9-2): Brady battled an ailing knee to beat the New York Jets last week on a late touchdown pass, but he told a radio station on Thursday night that "I'll be feeling a lot better than I was feeling last week." The loss of Gronkowski is impossible to replace -- he had three 100-yard games and 21 catches for touchdowns in Brady's first four games after the quarterback returned from a four-game suspension. The Patriots have a nice backup play in tight end Martellus Bennett, who has three 100-yard games, while rookie Malcolm Mitchell and the return of running back Dion Lewis have added a spark to the passing game. New England ranks third with an average of 17.9 points permitted.

EXTRA POINTS

1. New England is seeking its 14 straight 10-win season, second only to San Francisco (16).

2. Donald leads all defensive tackles with 26 sacks since the start of the 2014 season.

3. Patriots DE Chris Long spent the previous eight seasons with the Rams, who drafted him No. 2 in 2008.

 

[Greenbacks]

Paxton Lynch will make his second start at quarterback for the Broncos today. He started Week 5 -- the Broncos loss to the Atlanta Falcons -- and finished 23-of-35 for 223 yards with a touchdown and an interception. The Broncos are expected to put Lynch in the shotgun more than they would Trevor Siemian and the Broncos want to give Lynch an efficient run game today.

 

[Greenbacks]

Preview: Detroit at New Orleans.

When: 1:00 PM ET, Sunday, December 4, 2016
Where: Mercedes-Benz Superdome, New Orleans, Louisiana

The Detroit Lions haven’t won a division title since 1993, but they can pad their NFC North lead with a victory on Sunday against the host New Orleans Saints. The Lions have won three straight and six of their last seven, while the Saints hope to build off last week’s rout of Los Angeles and improve their standing in the playoff picture.
The Lions took over the division lead with a 16-13 win over Minnesota on Thanksgiving – their fourth triumph by three points or fewer. All 11 of Detroit’s games have been decided by a touchdown or less. The Saints are two games behind first-place Atlanta in the NFC South and among a slew of contenders for the second wild-card after recording a 49-21 drubbing of the Rams. The Lions have won two straight meetings with the Saints, including a 35-27 victory in New Orleans last season.

TV: 1 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Saints -6. O/U: 53.5

ABOUT THE LIONS (7-4): Detroit has survived a lackluster ground game thanks to the maturation of Matthew Stafford, who has completed 66.8 percent of his passes for 19 touchdowns and just five interceptions. Stafford has thrown scoring passes to seven different targets - including leading receiver Golden Tate, who caught two in last year’s win over the Saints. Detroit’s defense has stepped up its effort of late, allowed fewer than 300 total yards on average over the last four games and holding three straight opponents under 90 yards rushing.

ABOUT THE SAINTS (5-6): New Orleans again possesses one of the league’s most prolific offenses but hasn’t been able to consistently make stops on defense. Veteran Drew Brees leads the league in passing yards (3,587) and touchdown passes (30) and has led three game-winning drives in the fourth quarter, while Mark Ingram and Tim Hightower give the Saints a viable running game. The defense has turned it up the last two games, holding Carolina and Los Angeles under 250 total yards after failing to keep an opponent under 325 in the first nine contests.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Stafford has passed for 1,949 yards with 15 touchdowns and four interceptions in his last seven road games.

2. Brees has thrown a touchdown pass in an NFL-record 60 consecutive home contests.

3. Detroit WR Anquan Boldin has caught a touchdown pass in each of his last two games against New Orleans and has four TD receptions in his past six contests overall.

 

[Greenbacks]

Preview: Buffalo at Oakland.

When: 4:05 PM ET, Sunday, December 4, 2016
Where: Oakland Coliseum, Oakland, California

With their first winning record in 14 years secured, the Oakland Raiders are moving closer toward reaching the postseason for the first time since that 2002 campaign. Oakland hopes to maintain its lead in the AFC West on Sunday as it attempts to continue its home dominance over the Buffalo Bills in a matchup of two teams riding winning streaks and aiming to end the two longest playoff droughts in the NFL.
The Raiders, who are one game ahead of Kansas City in the division but have gone 13 seasons without a playoff appearance, improved to 9-2 last week as they edged Carolina 35-32 for their fifth consecutive overall victory - and third straight at home - but saw budding star Derek Carr suffer a dislocated pinkie finger on his throwing hand. The third-year quarterback has worn a glove during practice this week but was a full participant and stated he'll have "no limitations" against Buffalo. Carr will need to be fully functional versus the Bills, who have won two straight following a three-game slide and are looking to halt a league-worst 16-season playoff drought. Buffalo, which is one game back in the race for the second AFC wild card, faces a tall task on Sunday, however, as it has not won in Oakland since 1966 - losing eight straight there - and is just 1-10 in its last 11 on the road against the Raiders franchise, with the victory coming in overtime at the Los Angeles Coliseum.

TV: 4:05 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Raiders -3. O/U: 49

ABOUT THE BILLS (6-5): Buffalo hopes to have Marcell Dareus on the field Sunday after the defensive tackle sat out the latter stages of last week's victory over Jacksonville with an abdominal strain and has been limited at practice. "I think he's going to be OK," coach Rex Ryan told the team's website. "I'm no doctor, so I can't tell you the issue that he had, but he feels confident that he's going to be ready to roll, and I feel the same way." The Bills will be without Seantrel Henderson, however, as the offensive tackle received a 10-game suspension from the NFL for violating the league's Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse. Buffalo placed wide receiver Walt Powell and defensive tackle Corbin Bryant (shoulder) on injured reserve, signing Dez Lewis and DeAndre Coleman from the practice squad to respectively replace them, and also inked tight end Logan Thomas from Detroit's practice squad to fill Henderson's roster spot.

ABOUT THE RAIDERS (9-2): Carr has put himself in the conversation for the MVP award this season thanks in part to the five fourth-quarter comebacks he has orchestrated. He has led nine game-winning drives in the final period or overtime since 2015, which puts him one behind Detroit's Matthew Stafford for the most in the league in that span. Oakland may have another player in the running for MVP in Khalil Mack, who was named both the AFC Defensive Player of the Month for November and the conference's Defensive Player of the Week - for the second time this season - after becoming the first player to record a sack, interception-return touchdown, forced fumble and fumble recovery in the same game since Charles Woodson accomplished the feat in 2009.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Raiders RB Latavius Murray has been limited at practice with an ankle injury.

2. Buffalo enters December with a winning record for just the third time since 1999 - the last season it appeared in the postseason.

3. Oakland signed DL Demetrius Cherry to the practice squad after waiving him in early October.

 

[Greenbacks]

Preview: Washington at Arizona.

When: 4:25 PM ET, Sunday, December 4, 2016
Where: University of Phoenix Stadium, Glendale, Arizona

The Washington Redskins missed their big chance to make a run at the NFC East title when they fell in Dallas on Thanksgiving, but a wild-card spot still is there for the taking. The Arizona Cardinals, who host the Redskins on Sunday, are on the outside of the playoff picture looking in and already may have done too much damage with losses in three of their last four games.
Washington would be the No. 6 seed if the playoffs started this weekend and is trying to head to the postseason in back-to-back seasons for the first time since 1991-92. The Redskins won four straight in December last season and are looking ahead to a favorable closing schedule with only one team - the New York Giants at home in the regular-season finale - currently owning a winning record. The Cardinals were well on their way to the NFC West crown and the No. 2 seed in the NFC playoffs, but 2016 is proving to be a much more difficult test. "I think once we win one, we'll be fine," Arizona coach Bruce Arians told reporters. "I think we'll add them up to nine (wins) and I think you have a great shot (at the playoffs) still, because we're going to be playing some of those teams that are going to be in the same spot we're in."

TV: 4:25 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Cardinals -2.5. O/U: 49

ABOUT THE REDSKINS (6-4-1): Kirk Cousins is playing out the season under the franchise tag and continues to give the team reasons to sign him to a long-term extension. Cousins threw for 449 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions in the 31-26 loss at Dallas - the second time in the last four games he went over 440 yards and his third contest in a row without an interception. "Much like any other job, as you perform it longer in the same role, you're going to get comfortable and say, 'OK, I've been here, I've done this, I can do this,'" Cousins explained to reporters.

ABOUT THE CARDINALS (4-6-1): Arizona surrendered a total of 68 points in losses at Minnesota and Atlanta in its last two games, and Arians hinted at selfishness as the cause. "I thought, defensively, we had some guys get out of their lane again and try to do too much," he told reporters, "tried to get on the stat sheet instead of just doing their job." Safety Tyrann Mathieu played against the Falcons last week but described himself as "limited" due to a shoulder injury while cornerback Marcus Cooper recorded a career-high nine tackles.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Redskins TE Jordan Reed (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday.

2. Arizona RB David Johnson went over 100 yards from scrimmage in each of the team's first 11 contests this season.

3. Washington LG Brandon Scherff and LT Ty Nsekhe were limited at practice due to ankle injuries but are expected to play.

 

[Greenbacks]

Ravens have won five of the last six against the Dolphins. Miami's last win in Baltimore was with Dan Marino as its quarterback (1997).

Preview: N.Y. Giants at Pittsburgh.

When: 4:25 PM ET, Sunday, December 4, 2016
Where: Heinz Field, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Two of the league's elite wide receivers will be in the spotlight when the Pittsburgh Steelers host the streaking New York Giants on Sunday afternoon. Both New York's Odell Beckham Jr. and Pittsburgh's Antonio Brown are coming off superb performances last week to keep their respective teams in the hunt for a division title.
The marquee matchup at wide receiver aside, there is another common bond between the Giants and Steelers that dates back a dozen years. New York quarterback Eli Manning and counterpart Ben Roethlisberger were both first-round picks in the 2004 draft and each have guided their teams to a pair of Super Bowl championships. The Giants have ripped off six consecutive wins as they attempt to keep pace with Dallas in the NFC East, while Pittsburgh is tied with Baltimore atop the AFC North despite a pedestrian 6-5 record. "It’s December football. This is where the real football begins,” New York coach Ben McAdoo said. "It’s an exciting time against a lot of playoff teams and playoff environments. The margin for error is small."

TV: 4:25 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Steelers -6. O/U: 48

ABOUT THE GIANTS (8-3): New York's defense was among the worst in the league while going 6-10 last season, but one of the biggest reasons for the turnaround is safety Landon Collins, who was named the NFC Defensive Player of the Month on Thursday. Collins had three of his five interceptions in four games in November to earn the Giants' first monthly honor since Jason Pierre-Paul in 2011. Pierre-Paul is re-emerging as a force with 5.5 sacks over the past two weeks for New York, which has recorded 21 sacks during the winning streak. Beckham has multiple touchdowns receptions in three of the past six games while Manning has 15 scoring passes and six interceptions in that span.

ABOUT THE STEELERS (6-5): Pittsburgh stopped a four-game skid with back-to-back road wins at Cleveland and Indianapolis, but each victory came against an opponent with an untested quarterback. Brown, who is two yards shy of his fourth consecutive 1,000-yard season, leads the NFL with 82 receptions and caught three touchdown passes last week to match his total from his previous six games combined. Running back Le'Veon Bell has scored in each of the last three games and has rushed for 266 yards in the past two while Roethlisberger is coming off his sixth game with at least three touchdown passes. Pittsburgh's defense allows 263.5 yards per game and will be tested by New York's passing attack.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Beckham has 41 catches and nine touchdowns in his last six games versus AFC opponents.

2. Bell tops the NFL with an average of 142 scrimmage yards per game.

3 The Giants are seeking their first seven-game winning streak since 2008.

 

[Greenbacks]

Preview: Tampa Bay at San Diego.

When: 4:25 PM ET, Sunday, December 4, 2016
Where: Qualcomm Stadium, San Diego, California

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers refuse to give up on their quest for the top spot in the NFC South despite a losing record at home and a negative point differential. Tampa Bay, which also is in the hunt for a wild card, attempts to extend a pair of winning streaks and at worst remain one game back in the division when they visit the San Diego Chargers on Sunday.
The Buccaneers, who trail first-place Atlanta by just one game and are one-half game behind Washington for the second wild-card spot in the NFC, are minus-15 in point differential and a disappointing 2-4 at home - although they've won their last two at Raymond James Stadium after posting a 14-5 triumph over Seattle last week. Tampa Bay, which has won three straight overall, will be right where it wants to be Sunday as it owns a 4-1 road record and has captured three in a row away from home. San Diego resides in the basement in the AFC West despite winning two of its last three games, including a 21-13 triumph at Houston in Week 12. The Chargers have dominated the all-time series against the Buccaneers, winning eight of the first nine meetings before suffering a 34-24 loss at Tampa Bay on Nov. 11, 2012 in the most recent matchup.

TV: 4:25 p.m. ET, FOX. LINE: Chargers -3.5. O/U: 47.5

ABOUT THE BUCCANEERS (6-5): Tampa Bay's defense likely is salivating at the prospect of facing San Diego, as it has recorded 18 takeaways in its last seven games while the Chargers enter Week 13 leading the league with 23 turnovers. The team ranks 24th in total defense (369.3 yards per game) but is tied for 13th in scoring defense (264 points) as it has clamped down during its winning streak, allowing a total of 32 points in the three games after yielding 73 over the previous two contests. Jameis Winston has been on fire of late, throwing for 1,573 yards and 13 touchdowns in his last six games with only three interceptions, while Mike Evans is tied for the league lead with 10 TD receptions and has hauled in five scoring passes in his last five road contests.

ABOUT THE CHARGERS (5-6): Despite its turnover total, San Diego will provide a challenge to Tampa Bay's defense as it possesses the fifth-best passing offense (271.5 yards) and fourth-ranked scoring offense (313 points) in the league. Philip Rivers is fourth in the NFL with 3,128 passing yards and tied for fifth with 23 touchdown passes but also is one interception off the league lead of 13. The veteran has eclipsed the 3,000-yard plateau for the 11th consecutive season, which has him tied for the fourth-longest such streak in NFL history.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Buccaneers DE Noah Spence, who leads all NFC first-year players with 5.5 sacks, was named the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Month for November after posting 2.5 sacks, 11 tackles and two forced fumbles.

2. San Diego's Hunter Henry is second among NFL tight ends with five touchdown catches while CB Casey Hayward leads the league with six interceptions, including three in his last four games.

3. Tampa Bay RB Doug Martin is coming off a game in which he rushed for 87 yards while averaging 3.8 per carry - both season highs.

 

[Greenbacks]

Preview: Carolina at Seattle.

When: 8:30 PM ET, Sunday, December 4, 2016
Where: CenturyLink Field, Seattle, Washington

The Carolina Panthers may have to run the table to have a chance to return to the postseason as they prepare to visit the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a matchup of the past two Super Bowl losers. Carolina, which finished 15-1 last season. is coming off a 35-32 loss at Oakland last week to drop into last place in the AFC South with a 4-7 mark.
"We'll just keep fighting, keep playing," Panthers coach Ron Rivera said. "Now we still have an opportunity. We'll see what happens." Carolina has won only once in five road games and will be trying to win at one of the league's toughest venues -- Seattle is a perfect 5-0 at CenturyLink Field. The Seahawks are coming off a 14-5 loss at Tampa Bay -- a division rival of the Panthers -- in which they failed to score a touchdown for the third time. Still, Seattle owns a comfortable three-game lead over Arizona atop the NFC West.

TV: 8:30 p.m. ET, NBC. LINE: Seahawks -7. O/U: 44.5

ABOUT THE PANTHERS (4-7): Carolina's last four games -- and six of the past seven -- have been decided by three points and it is 2-4 in those games, along with a one-point defeat at Denver in the season opener. Quarterback Cam Newton had a passer rating above 100 in half of his 16 games en route to winning league MVP honors last season, but he has reached triple digits once this year and has completed less than 60 percent of his passes in six of 10 games. Running back Jonathan Stewart finally broke out with 96 yards rushing and two touchdowns in last week's loss after averaging 2.7 yards per carry in his previous three games. Carolina ranks second against the run (79.5 yards) but 29th versus the pass (275.2).

ABOUT THE SEAHAWKS (7-3-1): Seattle amassed 88 points during a three-game winning streak prior to last week's dud against the Buccaneers, in which quarterback Russell Wilson threw for a season-low 151 yards and was intercepted twice -- matching his season total from the first 10 games. Running back Thomas Rawls was limited to 38 yards on 12 carries in his second game back from a broken leg, although Wilson rushed for a season-high 80 yards. Star safety Earl Thomas was a full participant in practice Thursday after missing the first game of his career last week while defensive end Michael Bennett could return to the lineup for the first time since Week 7. The Seahawks are allowing a league-low 17 points per game.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Carolina scored the first 31 points in a 31-24 postseason win over Seattle last season.

2. Seahawks DE Cliff Avril leads the NFC with 10 sacks.

3. Panthers LB Luke Kuechly (concussion) is likely to sit out his second straight game.
