How It Works 🤖
We don’t “guess picks” or scrape random Google searches. This isn’t ChatGPT copy-pasting stats.
Our model is trained on thousands of historical NFL matchups.
QB Landscape is pretty straightforward.
Bo Nix is out after getting season ending surgery on his ankle. Jarrett Stidham will step in for the first time since ‘23. He gives this offense a respectable floor.
Still, our models project about a 4 point difference between them.
WSH: Mariota’s status for week 17 is uncertain, meaning one of Jeff Driskel, Josh Johnson, or Sam Hartman will start. Kliff Kingsbury’s comments seem to indicate Driskel will get the opportunity.
NYJ: Brady Cook was announced the starter last week with injuries to multiple players in the Jets’ QB room. Aaron Glenn confirmed that Cook will again get the start this week.
IND: Philip Rivers put together a fun performance last weekend, and the Colts were quick to indicate he will plan to start again on Monday night. No big negative effect on Indy’s prediction in our models but we’ll see if he can consistently perform well enough to be competitive.
NYJ: There’s uncertainty again as Tyrod Taylor and Justin Fields could potentially return from injury and replace Cook. The Adrian Martinez gets cut, signaling they may be preparing for one of Taylor or Fields to be back this weekend. One to monitor but no big difference.
Games with notable QB changes:
IND: lost Daniel Jones
WSH: lost Jayden Daniels
No definitive word yet on if Fields will be back for the Jets.
Guessing Herbert will continue despite the hand injury for LAC.
