Hopefully, the 10 days since Washington’s last game will help Daniels heal, as his rib injury has held him back from taking too many chances with either his arm or with his legs. There’s no better team to play right now than the Cowboys, who have been ultra generous on defense, so look for Daniels to get back on track, throwing for 250 passing yards and two touchdowns.
Jared Goff, Lions
Most people would argue that the Lions are the front runners to be the NFC representative in the Super Bowl. They’ve demolished pretty much every team they faced, and it should be much the same this weekend against Indianapolis. The Colts have had trouble stopping the run, and their zone defense will have a lot of issues stopping the Lions receivers. Look for Goff to throw for 265 passing yards and multiple touchdowns.
Bo Nix, Broncos
Nix looked tremendous last week, throwing four TD passes to four different receivers. This week, Denver plays the Raiders who are missing important pieces in their secondary. Don’t forget about Nix’s mobility, which is extremely underrated. It wouldn’t shock me if he had another 40 or 50 rushing yards to go along with 230 passing yards and 2 TDs.
Justin Herbert, Chargers
When the season started, people expected the Chargers to be a run-first team, but since their BYE, their PROE (pass rate over expectation) has been incredibly high. I expect this to be a high-scoring game with Herbert not only dominating with his arm but also with his legs, as he’s shown a propensity to run in recent games. He should have his best chance in a while to have a three-touchdown performance.
Tommy DeVito, Giants
If there was ever a game for Tommy Cutlets to take the reins, Week 12 against Tampa is a perfect time for him to do it. Tampa has struggled to stop the pass, and DeVito is going to be aggressive and take his shots downfield. Look for him to throw for about 220 yards and one touchdown, with a good chance that he will run in another touchdown as well.
