The key points of Week 12

The top of the division is at stake between the Titans and the Colts, who have the previous game going for them and could go two games away from winning at home. Indianapolis is a strong candidate, with a defense that is in the Top 5 in the yardage and points categories, and the conditions that are required to win at this time of year.

Tennessee’s have not had the best of luck against the Colts, losing 20 of the last 24 games and sweeping them in 11 seasons since the AFC lined up. The Titans have in Ryan Tannehill better air control with 5.5 TD passes per interception, by 1.75 for Philip Rivers, who despite having the fewest sacks (9), continues to deliver the ball through the air.

The game will be defined by what Derrick Henry can do against the defense of Matt Eberflus, defensive coordinator of the
Colts. If Rivers doesn’t make mistakes, division play will be on Indy’s defense.

The Legend and the Heir

This is how you can put up the Raymond James Stadium marquee when the Chiefs visit the Buccaneers; Mahomes arrives with five consecutive wins against Tom Brady’s team, which has two losses in three games. Eyes will be on when the Chiefs’ offense takes the ball against one of the best defenses in the league.

The challenge for the Buccaneers will be to curb the flying circus with Tyreek Hill, Travis Kelce and company, but sacks and turnovers can be factors against Mahomes. If Brady wants to win the game, he can’t forgive in the red zone against the worst defense in the NFL.

Hand to hand

Rarely can a personal duel be highlighted in the NFL being a game of so much strategy and where there are factors around, but what DeAndre Hopkins does for the Cardinals against Stephon Gilmore of the Patriots will be key in the result between the two best players in his career. position for the Cardinals to win.

The new blood

The Chargers and Bills have players with little experience in their quarterbacks, but with great results. Both have more than 100 rating points, 24 years or less and at this point in the season it has only happened twice, but it is something that the modern NFL is looking for for the third year in a row and the Bills must add another win.

Packing your bags

Aaron Rodgers has an impressive streak in the last three games, with more than 300 yards, more than 70% in completions and has in front of a solid defense that tries to keep Chicago afloat, the Packers will win with another great performance from Rodgers becoming the fourth quarterback in the last 50 years maintaining the aforementioned streak for four games.
