Green Bay at Dallas, Cleveland at San Francisco and a battle of backup quarterbacks headline the weekend of games.
ARLINGTON, TX - OCTOBER 08: Aaron Rodgers #12 of the Green Bay Packers reacts after throwing the game winning touchdown against the Dallas Cowboys in the fourth quarter at AT&T Stadium on October 8, 2017 in Arlington, Texas. at Dallas Cowboys
“Last week, we needed to outscore them, and we didn’t get the job done,” Rodgers said. “So it’s on the offense to be a lot better situationally. We still aren’t doing great at third down, although we were better last week. Up until last week, we were great in the red zone and then we went 3-for-7, so we’ve got to be strong situationally.”
“A lot of people on this team don’t get credit they deserve, so Monday we’re going to showcase that,” 49ers receiver Marquise Goodwin said. “They’re doing a great job offensively of just staying to the course and not turning it over, knowing what they have to do,” Bucs coach Bruce Arians said. “Feed off the defense and the defense and special teams are creating points and keeping it close and winning and that's what you have to do when your quarterback’s down.”
The young quarterbacks are getting plenty of help. Jacksonville running back Leonard Fournette rushed for 225 yards in last week’s victory over Denver. Carolina running back Christian McCaffrey joined the legendary Jim Brown as the only players in NFL history with three games of 175-plus scrimmage yards and one touchdown in his team’s first four games. Carolina has a league-high 18 sacks.Defenses rule. Tennessee is fourth in the league with 15.
New England quarterback Tom Brady has thrown for 71,575 yards. If he torches the Redskins for 366 yards, he’ll pass Brett Favre and Peyton Manning and move into second place on the all-time passing list behind Drew Brees .
