Cleveland at Chicago
The Bears did enough to win this game. They held the ball for an additional 15 minutes, caused five turnovers, allowed less than 200 yards of offense, and only gave up one red zone possession. However, they are some cracks in the armor. They went just 22% in the red zone and allowed Jay Cutler to take seven hits.
Seattle at Dallas
Quietly, the Cowboys have become the hottest team in the NFL. They went a perfect three for three in the red zone, held the ball for an additional ten minutes, had three quarterback sacks and were +1 in turnover differential. If they want to stay hot, they have to keep Tony Romo on his feet, as he took eight hits yesterday.
St. Louis at Detroit
As I mentioned previously, this was the game I missed. First, I believed that Calvin Johnson was going to play, and he didn't- a late scratch. Detroit was better in the red zone and held the ball slightly longer. St. Louis won this game because they outgained the Lions with more than 70 yards and they got a little bit of pressure on Matt Stafford, while keeping Marc Bulger clean.
