Texans-Titans in Nashville start time delayed due to power issues in the area:
They mentioned on CBS that power at Nissan Stadium will be done so with backup generators to lessen the stress on the power grid.

Those gotta be some big generators!
too bad the energizer bunny is booked:
It was already known that the Lions run D was suspect. Panthers are running all over them thus far today.
Panthers at 240 rushing yards in the 1st half including 100+ rushing yards each from Chuba Hubbard and D'Onta Foreman.

Bears are playing a bunch of guys on defense that would probably be practice squad guys on other rosters.
Greg Joseph wins it for the Vikings with a 61-yard FG.
11 of 12 wins for Vikings this season have been in one score games, most in a single season in NFL history. Only win that wasn't was their Week 1 victory over Green Bay.

Bengals win in New England.
Last time Cincinnati won in New England before today was in 1986 and Boomer Esiason was their QB.

Not even done with his first season and he's already out:
40+ years watching NFL football I can’t recall ever seeing a player decline so quickly and so completely as Russell Wilson in 2022. What an utter franchise destroying catastrophe. I also don’t recall a coach not even making it it through year one before getting fired and that has happened twice—Hackett and Urban Meyer—just in the last year. And both well-deserved dismissals to boot.
J.J. Watt announced he will be retiring at the end of the season.

It's really not clear what the Broncos were thinking with that trade.
You make that deal if you're a ready-made Super Bowl team, which they very clearly were not and stripped themselves of all ability to get better with the assets they had to surrender to acquire Wilson.
And while Wilson has had a great career, that's not the guy I would have bet on, unlike someone like Matt Stafford who always seemed underrated and underappreciated and was in a position where the trade offered a big new opportunity to prove himself.
Can you imagine if this happened. My lord Ryan Pace is the worst to ever do it.

I really don't understand why everyone is surprised by Wilson's fall-off. Watching him the last couple of years, especially last year, it was clear he was on the downward slope.

Totally, never made a lick of sense to give up those kinds of resources for a QB whose best was behind him, but he's been worse than anyone could have possibly imagined.
And what Geno Smith is doing makes it doubly humiliating.

Looked like Wilson was trying to throw a shot put instead of a football last year.

And let's not ignore the reality that he brings personal qualities which just kinda can't sustain themselves if he's not the Super Bowl-winning superstar.
Derek Carr benched by the Raiders and will be inactive on Sunday. Jarrett Stidham will start with undrafted rookie QB Chase Garbers, who played at Cal, will be the backup.

Also Wentz starting for Washington this week. Good news for the Packers.
Maybe so, maybe not. There's a possibility that Dallas could be locked into the 5 seed and rest all their starters Week 18 at Washington.
