According to the NGS win probability model, the @Titans‘ win probability was as low as 0.4% when they trailed the Dolphins 27-13 with 3:08 left in regulation.
The win goes down as the 2nd-most statistically improbable comeback in the NGS era.#TENvsMIA | #Titans pic.twitter.com/03vii31XK1

Tonight could be used as the official ‘Tyreek Hill for MVP’ argument. When he was on the field, the Miami offense looked like it has for much of this season.
When he wasn’t involved they looked like a different group.

#Bears pass-rusher Montez Sweat has a team-high 3.5 sacks in 5 games since joining Chicago in Week 9… while helping the Bears become a Top 5 defense during that time.

About the Montez Sweat trade?
What’s changed? The Bears still dealt an early second-round pick for the right to pay Sweat and all that’s happened is he’s gotten sacks in games that don’t matter for Chicago?
It was a strategic blunder then and still is. https://t.co/6mUyZyK1bt

Patrick Mahomes to @cdotharrison today: “I regret the way I acted towards Josh (Allen) after the game. Because he had nothing to do with it. I was still hot and emotional, but you can’t do that. It’s not a great example for kids watching the game.”pic.twitter.com/x6ABtCBob1 https://t.co/ldRgtl7Oez
