DEN-JAX | BAL-TB
Broncos
Here are some things to consider: The Broncos brought everything to London. There were penalties (10 in the first quarter alone), and poor quarterback play. Russell Wilson His second attempt at passing was unsuccessful. There have been a lot of offensive problems that plague the Broncos this season, including numerous missteps on first downs. All of it was on display at Wembley. The team managed to somehow put together an 80 yard drive for the game-winning touchdown, with 1:43 remaining. This gave them a 21-17 advantage. K’Waun Williams It was made with an interception. This win was a must-have for any team or coaching staff.
Will the Broncos sell at the trade deadline or will they be buyers? George Paton, the general manager of the Broncos, stated Thursday in London that they were not in a “mode where we want to eliminate our best players.” But we will now see if this is true. Outside linebacker Bradley Chubb The deadline for Tuesday’s auction is fast approaching and Chubb will draw the most attention. Chubb is currently in the final year of his rookie contract. He has had his best season ever as a pro. Wide receiver Jerry JeudyAlthough he scored in London on Sunday, he has been contacted by some interested parties, the player with the best chance of moving is the tight end. Albert Okwuegbunam. He was inactive on game day three for the third week. Greg Dulcich. Okwuegbunam’s speed is rare (4.49 at the combine), and he was John Elway’s last draft class as the Broncos top football decision-maker. — Jeff Legwold
Next game Titans (Sunday at 1 p.m. ET)
Jaguars
Here are some things to consider: Concerns about whether Travis Etienne Jr. After Sunday’s performance, Etienne should have been able to assume the RB1 position. Etienne ran a career-high 156 yard and averaged 6.5 yards of running. If the defense hadn’t given up a TD drive too late, Etienne’s one TD run would have been enough to score the game-winning touchdown. This is why Jaguars traded easily James Robinson The week began earlier.
Have you ever seen anyone? Josh Allen? Allen was unable to make any tackles against Broncos. He has only two QB hits in his last four games, and one sack in five of his last five games. Allen was almost invisible in this game, even though Russell Wilson was out with a hamstring injury. Allen is not among the top 10 picks that should be expected to make plays when it is crucial. Mike DiRocco
Next game vs. Raiders (Sunday, at 1 p.m. ET)
Ravens
Here are some things to consider: Ravens should embrace their ground and pound identity. Baltimore scored three points in the first period. Lamar Jackson The ball was thrown 30 times. The Ravens scored 24 points in the second half when they ran 26 times for 294 yards. Jackson could be allowed to throw more balls in his fifth NFL season. Jackson hasn’t been consistent enough to make that happen. Baltimore is 37-8 (.822) after Jackson was named starter in the middle of the 2018 season. Ravens are running the ball more than 30 times per game since Jackson took over.
How serious are the injuries? Mark Andrews And Rashod Bateman? Andrews and Bateman were both out for the second half. Coach John Harbaugh stated that neither had suffered any “serious injuries.” Andrews was injured on his right shoulder and Bateman sustained an injury to his left foot that kept him out of action for two games earlier in this season. The good news is that the Ravens will only play one game in the next 23 days. (Baltimore plays against the Saints on Nov. 7, before going on a bye). The Ravens were able to win without Jackson as their top two targets. Isaiah Likely 6 catches for 77 yards Demarcus Robinson (6 for 64 yards), stepped in to fill the gap. — Jamison Hensley
Next game Saints (Monday 8:15 p.m. ET)
Buccaneers
Here are some things to consider: The Bucs’ incredible free fall continues. The Bucs failed to score on their first possession. This was the end of the NFL’s fourth-longest scoring drought. They didn’t score another touchdown until 53 seconds were remaining. Julio Jones He made an 8 yard grab in his first game after suffering from a knee injury in Week 4. They held off the Ravens until Shaq Barrett sustained an ankle injury during the third quarter. He then lost three touchdowns.
How does the Bucs escape this situation? They have one thing on their side right now: the NFC South looks extremely weak with the Bucs at number 3-5, just behind 3-4 Falcons, but still holding the head-to–head tiebreaker over Atlanta. However, there aren’t any real ‘gimme game’ left on the schedule. The combined record of their nine remaining opponents is 30-39. Next week’s schedule features a game they’ve been anticipating since it was published: a rematch in the NFC divisional semifinal against the Los Angeles RamsThey lost to 30-27. Brady has been 0-3 against Rams since joining Bucs. — Jenna Laine
