Match context Indianapolis Colts vs San Francisco 49ers Colts and Niners. Last week Indianapolis found an answer — on defence. Against one of the league’s best passing attacks they shut Seattle down when it mattered, holding them to just 2 third‑down conversions on 13 attempts and 2.3 yards per carry. Even without Sauce Gardner, the…

Match context Houston Texans vs Las Vegas Raiders Geno Smith (the Raiders’ QB) is expected back, and the timing couldn’t be worse for Las Vegas. Houston’s almost locked into the playoffs and shows zero signs of slipping. Even if Derek Stingley Jr. misses time in the defensive backfield, that Texans defence keeps operating at an…

Match context Baltimore Ravens vs New England Patriots Ravens vs Pats. The showdown. This game’s huge for Baltimore — they’re still fighting for their playoff lives, while New England just wants to lock down the AFC’s top seed.

Trevor Lawrence’s six touchdowns against the Jets shouldn’t make anyone lose perspective: New York has one of the worst pass defenses in the league and had absolutely nothing to play for. Jacksonville’s on a five-game winning run, but…

Match context Arizona Cardinals vs Atlanta Falcons Odd birds clash: Falcons vs Cardinals. Arizona’s love affair with friendly bets died a few weeks back. After folding to the Rams and then getting smothered by the Texans’ defense, the Cardinals roll into this one with a glaring issue: they can’t run the ball. Against Atlanta, that’s…

Match context — Tennessee Titans vs Kansas City Chiefs This end-of-season duel between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Tennessee Titans pitches two teams already out of the playoff race. With Patrick Mahomes sidelined, the Chiefs are finishing a frustrating season with Gardner Minshew at the controls, while the Titans keep building around rookie Cam…

Match context New York Giants vs Minnesota Vikings The Vikings’ QB J.J. McCarthy did his job last week, slicing up one of the league’s worst secondaries in a 34–26 win over Dallas. The setting stays hugely in his favour here — he now faces a Giants defence ranked fourth-worst by DVOA and simply last against…
