The Green Bay Packers Defense put up decent numbers in their Week 10 victory. The unit posted three sacks, an interception and a fumble recovery.

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby had a solid game against the Carolina Panthers. The veteran kicker made a 47-yard field goal and all three extra-point attempts.

Tim Capurso 5 years agoJimmy Graham Posts 59 Receiving Yards In Win
Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham had a decent day that could have been even better. The 32-year-old caught two of four targets for 59 yards but had a touchdown catch overturned. It was nice to see Graham eclipse 50 receiving yards for the first time since Week 7, though 48 of his yards […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoAllen Lazard Sees Six Targets
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard saw a season-high six targets against the Carolina Panthers in Week 10. He only caught two of them for 27 yards. Still, Lazard might be quietly staking claim to the Packers' number-two wide receiver role. Marquez Valdes-Scantling has gone missing the last two weeks. Geronimo Allison hasn't eclipsed […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoMarquez Valdes-Scantling, Geronimo Allison Quiet In Week 10
Green Bay Packers wide receivers Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Geronimo Allison were both unproductive in their team's Week 10 victory over the Carolina Panthers.

For perspective, fellow receiver Davante Adams had more receiving yards in […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoDavante Adams Elite Against Panthers
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams got back on track in Week 10 against the Carolina Panthers. Adams hauled in seven of 10 targets for 118 yards.

Tim Capurso 5 years agoJamaal Williams Picks Up 63 Rushing Yards
Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams had a decent day on the ground in his team's Week 10 win. The 24-year-old tallied 13 carries, the same number as backfield mate Aaron Jones, and 63 rushing yards.

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones bounced back from last week's dud in a big way. The 24-year-old picked up 93 rushing yards on 13 carries and scored three touchdowns in his team's 24-16 win over the Carolina Panthers. Jones sliced and diced through the Carolina defense all afternoon and was a touchdown machine […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoAaron Rodgers Quiet Against Panthers
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers had a quiet day against the Carolina Panthers in Week 10. Rodgers completed 17 of 29 passes for 233 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. With a lead at halftime, the Packers were content to run the ball in the second half- that explains why Rodgers had his fewest […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoSaints Defense Underwhelms In Week 10
The New Orleans Saints Defense was disappointing in their 26-9 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. New Orleans allowed 26 points, which diminished their value in leagues that penalize for point-scoring. They only registered one sack against a Falcons' offensive line that allows a ton of quarterback hits. Perhaps most disappointing of all, they only picked […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoWil Lutz Nails Three Field Goals Against Falcons
New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz was relatively busy against the Atlanta Falcons, given the way his team's offense struggled. Lutz was responsible for the nine points scored by the Saints offense. The 25-year-old made one field goal from at least 40 yards out after missing three in the past two games. He also made […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoTre'Quan Smith Catches One Pass Against Atlanta
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith made his return to the field in Week 10 after missing five games with an ankle injury. Smith received two targets and caught one of them for 13 yards.

Tim Capurso 5 years agoTed Ginn Held Without A Catch In Week 10
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn failed to catch a pass in his team's 26-9 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. The 34-year-old was targeted three times but came away with nothing to show for it. He did get one carry for five yards, but it wasn't enough to save yet another disappointing day for […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoJared Cook Posts A Season-High 74 Yards In Week 10
New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook had perhaps his best game of the season in Week 10 against the Atlanta Falcons. Cook caught six of 10 targets, a season-high, and posted 74 receiving yards.

New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray had a quiet day against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 10. The seventh-year veteran rushed five times for 12 yards and caught both of his targets for seven yards.

Tim Capurso 5 years agoAlvin Kamara Catches Eight Passes In Week 10 Loss
New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara rushed four times for 24 yards and caught eight of 10 targets for 50 yards in his team's Week 10 loss. The 24-year-old looked good running the ball, though game script guided the Saints more towards the pass. Fellow back Latavius Murray had more rushing attempts, but Kamara […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoDrew Brees Held In Check By Falcons
New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees completed 32 of 45 passes for 287 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. The pass attempts were a season-high, but the 40-year-old averaged a season-low 6.4 yards per attempt. It wasn't Brees' best day accuracy-wise, though getting sacked six times certainly didn't help matters. The Saints also had six […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoAmari Cooper Officially Active Against Vikings
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper (knee) will play against the Minnesota Vikings. Cooper practiced Friday and was likely to play, so this news confirms it. He'll face off with the Vikings' ninth-ranked pass defense. The 25-year-old may be followed in coverage by Pro Bowl corner Xavier Rhodes. Still, Cooper is talented enough to be […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoDevonta Freeman Ruled Out For Rest Of Game
Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (foot) has been ruled out for the remainder of the game against the New Orleans Saints. The 27-year-old rushed 10 times for 38 yards and caught three of four targets for 10 yards. Brian Hill and Kenjon Barner will continue to fill in for Freeman.
Tim Capurso 5 years agoJames Bradberry Inactive Against Packers
Carolina Panthers star cornerback James Bradberry (groin) is inactive for the team's Week 10 contest against the Green Bay Packers. The 26-year-old likely would have shadowed Packers wide receiver Davante Adams if he were able to go. Considering that Bradberry ranks in the top five in both interceptions and passes defended, this is certainly an […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoDevonta Freeman Questionable To Return
Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (foot) is questionable to return against the New Orleans Saints. It's unclear when Freeman suffered the injury, though it was likely late in the second quarter. The 27-year-old tallied 48 scrimmage yards on 13 touches in the first half. Backup running backs Brian Hill and Kenjon Barner will pick […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoTy Johnson Getting Evaluated For Concussion
Detroit Lions running back Ty Johnson (head) is currently getting checked for a concussion. Johnson rushed for 16 yards on five attempts and hauled in a three-yard reception before exiting the game in the first quarter. Fellow backs J.D.

Tim Capurso 5 years agoCorey Davis Inactive For Week 10
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis (hip) is officially inactive for Week 10 against the Kansas City Chiefs. The injury will likely limit him in practice next week, so stay tuned for updates.

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell (knee) and tight end Chris Herndon (hamstring) are both active for their Week 10 battle against the New York Giants.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (illness) and wide receiver Marquise Brown (ankle, thigh) are both active for the team's matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals. The two were expected to play, so this news is a nice confirmation. Jackson is a must-start against a defense he gashed in Week 6 for 388 scrimmage yards and a […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoLeSean McCoy Inactive Against Titans
Kansas City Chiefs running back LeSean McCoy is inactive for the team's Week 10 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. McCoy was a healthy scratch, likely due to the Chiefs' desire to involve their younger backs. The veteran's absence directly benefits running back Damien Williams, who is coming off of a 125-yard rushing performance in Week […]
