The Eagles rank 25th in total yards (300.1 per game), 28th in passing (184.9) and 29th in third-down conversion rate (33.87%). They&#8217;re averaging 115 rushing yards per game (17th in NFL), compared to 179 in 2024 (second). They are, however, the best red zone offense (75% conversion rate) and have a league-low four giveaways. That, paired with a defense that has played lights out as of late, has been enough to keep Philly atop the NFC. But the offense has not yet reached its potential, and it falls on the first-year playcaller to help remedy that. &#8212; Tim McManus<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"floatleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/1763465712_350_ne.png\" width=\"31\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Week 11 result: Beat the Jets <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/game\/_\/gameId\/401772945\/jets-patriots\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">27-14<\/a><br \/>Week 11 ranking: 4<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/gn-arrow.png\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Who&#8217;s under the most pressure: Defensive tackle <a data-player-guid=\"fa3a5772-eeb1-b2c0-1b0a-03209a6e1e32\" href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/player\/_\/id\/4372030\/christian-barmore\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Christian Barmore<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Patriots just placed starting defensive tackle <a data-player-guid=\"b723c7a2-93cd-295c-ea06-cbf0b55d61e0\" href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/player\/_\/id\/4239699\/milton-williams\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Milton Williams<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/story\/_\/id\/46976087\/source-patriots-dt-milton-williams-miss-multiple-weeks\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">injured reserve<\/a> because of a high ankle sprain, and he has arguably been their best defensive player.

Williams has been terrific in gut-check time with five winning drives this season. He has made significant strides in mastering coach Ben Johnson&#8217;s offense, but until the Bears can close out teams far sooner than the final minutes of games, the pressure remains on Williams. He&#8217;s nowhere close to the 70% completion percentage goal the Bears set for him this season (59.7%); he ranks 26th in success rate (45%) and 28th in efficiency (.048). There are moments when Williams performs like a top-12 quarterback and others when he looks like a young QB trying to figure it out.

This season, the Texans have allowed more than 20 points only twice and given up the fewest points per game (16.3). So, the pressure falls squarely on Caley to consistently get a complementary offense better than the one they currently have. Right now, they&#8217;re averaging 22.0 points, which ranks 21st. If the offense doesn&#8217;t show improvements over the rest of the season, the Texans could be looking for their third offensive coordinator in three years. &#8212; DJ Bien-Aime<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"floatleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/1763465718_473_min.png\" width=\"31\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Week 11 result: Lost to the Bears <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/game\/_\/gameId\/401772880\/bears-vikings\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">19-17<\/a><br \/>Week 11 ranking: 20<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/sw_ye_40.png\" width=\"17\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Who&#8217;s under the most pressure: Quarterback <a data-player-guid=\"460fbf74-c64d-3862-b942-852d104e94dd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/player\/_\/id\/4433970\/jj-mccarthy\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">J.J.

But now more than halfway through his second season, McCarthy hasn&#8217;t made much progress toward establishing himself as the Vikings&#8217; long-term starter. The biggest concern is perhaps the most fundamental job a quarterback has: delivering the football accurately and on time. His off-target rate (22.1%) ranks No. 46 of the 47 quarterbacks who have made at least one start this season.

He added another interception Monday. His ability to keep the ball out of harm&#8217;s way will determine whether the offense finds its rhythm and his future with the organization. Whether Smith turns his season around or not, it&#8217;s clear the Raiders need to figure out their next plan at quarterback sooner rather than later. &#8212; Ryan McFadden<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"floatleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/1763465723_915_ten.png\" width=\"31\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Week 11 result: Lost to the Texans <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/game\/_\/gameId\/401772881\/texans-titans\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">16-13<\/a><br \/>Week 11 ranking: 32<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/sw_ye_40.png\" width=\"17\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Who&#8217;s under the most pressure: Tight end <a data-player-guid=\"eb564484-2114-ece2-1581-1bf179af62c8\" href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/player\/_\/id\/4360635\/chig-okonkwo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Chig Okonkwo<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Okonkwo is in the final season of his rookie contract, so the play he puts on film is in essence an audition for the Titans and every other team.

The fourth-year tight end has established chemistry with rookie quarterback <a data-player-guid=\"9f4e87b5-5da8-38c0-9951-e3496b55b3c8\" href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/player\/_\/id\/4688380\/cam-ward\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Cam Ward<\/a>, as shown by their 39-yard connection to set up a tying touchdown Sunday.
