Episode notes
Dak's Resurgent, High-Leverage Play
- Dak Prescott is playing at an elite level and has willfully carried the Cowboys offense despite injuries.
- His downfield connection with George Pickens and improvisational throws have been game-defining this month.
Worthy Kickstarts Chiefs' Offense
- The Chiefs' offense looked noticeably better with Xavier Worthy back, adding vertical and horizontal stretch.
- Reinforcements like Worthy and returning pass-catchers suggest Kansas City will be markedly more explosive soon.
Ravens' Quick-Pressure Problem
- The Ravens appear sped up and out of sync, with Lamar Jackson making uncharacteristic mistakes under increased quick pressure.
- Their quick-pressure rate has roughly doubled compared to last year, which explains Lamar's antsiness and turnovers.
