JETS Jefferson > New York Jets
Week 14 of the NFL season saw some big scores, with plenty of Tigers involved in the action across the board. Let’s break it down.
Packers 31 at Lions 34
New Lions Kwon Alexander and Jamal Adams had two and one tackle, respectively. The Lions are either a team of destiny, or setting their fans up for a new kind of sadness.
NFLSU Score: 4/10
Browns 14 at Steelers 27
Patrick Queen had 10 tackles with a pass breakup, while Grant Delpit had six tackles and Donte Jackson had two. Ethan Pocic played center.
NFLSU Score: 6/10
Falcons 21 at Vikings 42
Justin Jefferson did not lead the Vikings in catches, yards, or TDs against the Falcons. His seven catches for 132 yards and 2 TDs were one behind Jordan Addison in each category. We’ll still call it a good game because the play by this Falcons DB is so funny.
DARNOLD JETTAS 52-YARD TD

At 10-2, it looks like a fair bet we’ll get to see Justin Jefferson in the Playoffs again. This time, it looks like the QB will be better.
NFLSU Score: 9/10
Raiders 13 at Buccaneers 28
K’Lavon Chaisson interception? K’Lavon Chaisson interception!

Chaisson added four tackles with .5 sacks, as he seems to be finding himself finally in Vegas. Super cool for him. Trey Palmer did not catch a pass, but recovered his teammate’s fumble.
NFLSU Score: 5/10
Saints 14 at Giants 11
Foster Moreau caught two passes for 40 yards, the second one being a very nifty one-handed snag.

Malik Nabers caught five passes for 79 yards, which might as well be 20 catches for 400 yards in this Giants offense. The new regime can’t come soon enough. Tyrann Mathieu had one tackle.
NFLSU Score: 5/10
Panthers 16 at Eagles 22
Damien Lewis blocked for a Panthers offense that yet again fought hard enough to barely lose to a good team.
NFLSU Score: 1/10
Jaguars 10 at Titans 6
Brian Thomas Jr. caught eight passes for 86 yards. Arden Key had four tackles.
NFLSU Score: 4/10
Jets 26 at Dolphins 32 (OT)
Jalen Mills had four tackles while Jarrick Bernard-Converse had one. Odell Beckham Jr. put up a genuinely impressive statline of one catch for one yard.
NFLSU Score: 3/10
Seahawks 30 at Cardinals 18
With Anthony Bradford hurt, we have nothing here.
NFLSU Score: 0/10
Bills 42 at Rams 44
Omar Speights had four tackles and Reid Ferguson long snapped. I know I say we only judge these games on LSU player production, but imagine watching this game for Omar Speights and Reid Ferguson.
NFLSU Score: 2/10
Bears 13 at 49ers 38
Well there’s definitely no reason to watch this.
NFLSU Score: 0/10
Chargers 17 at Chiefs 19
DJ Chark finally saw some action, catching one pass for nine yards. Kristian Fulton had four tackles. The Chiefs got away with it again, man.
NFLSU Score: 3/10
Bengals 27 at Cowboys 20
A Monday Night Football game between 4-8 and 5-7 teams? Not super interesting. Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase putting up numbers on a bad defense? Pretty interesting! Cade York going 5-5 on kicks after being signed as an injury replacement a week ago while his girlfriend cheerleads for the other team on the sideline? ENTHRALLING! I was really hoping the game would end with a Cade York walk-off game-winner, but this was pretty sick too.
BURROW. CHASE. 40-YARD TD!

Joe was 33/44 for 369 yards with 3 TDs and 1 INT. Ja’Marr Chase caught 14 passes for 177 yards and 2 TDs. In a just world, these heroics would have made Joe the frontrunner for MVP, but he doesn’t get consideration for it because his defense lost 8 games. I want to be upset but hey, we got the wins five years ago. As long as Joe and Ja’Marr stay healthy it’s hard to not have a good time watching them put up numbers.
NFLSU Score: 9/10
