Thursday Night Capsule – Tennessee Titans at Green Bay Packers

An inter-conference battle kicks off Week 11 of the 2022 NFL season on Thursday, November 17 (8:15 PM ET, Prime Video) as the Tennessee Titans (6-3) visit the Green Bay Packers (4-6). Tennessee holds the all-time regular-series advantage, 7-6, while the home team has won each of the past three meetings. In the last matchup between the two clubs, Week 16 of the 2020 season, Green Bay quarterback AARON RODGERS threw four touchdown passes and running backs A.J. DILLION (124 rushing yards) and AARON JONES (94) combined for 218 rushing yards in the Packers’ 40-14 win.

Last week, Tennessee quarterback RYAN TANNEHILL recorded 255 passing yards and two touchdowns against no interceptions for a 94.1 rating, his fourth consecutive start with no interceptions. Running back DERRICK HENRY ranks second in the NFL with 923 rushing yards and tied for second with nine rushing touchdowns. With a rushing touchdown, he can become the fifth player in NFL history with at least 10 rushing touchdowns in five consecutive seasons, joining Pro Football Hall of Famer LADAINIAN TOMLINSON (nine consecutive seasons from 2001-09), ADRIAN PETERSON (seven from 2007-13), SHAUN ALEXANDER (five from 2001-05) and MICHAEL TURNER (five from 2008-12). Wide receiver NICK WESTBROOK-IKHINE set career highs with 119 receiving yards and two touchdown receptions in Week 10.

Tennessee enters the game with the league’s second-ranked rushing defense (85.1 rushing yards allowed per game) and hasn’t allowed a team to rush for 100 yards since Week 2. The Titans recorded a season-high six sacks last week, the most sacks by the Titans in a single game since Week 14, 2018 (eight). Defensive lineman DENICO AUTRY has six sacks in five road games this season and is one of five players to record at least seven sacks in each of the last three seasons. Linebacker DAVID LONG had eight tackles in Week 10 and aims for his eighth game in a row with at least seven tackles. Cornerback TERRANCE MITCHELL recorded eight tackles and his first interception of the season last week. Linebacker RASHAD WEAVER recorded 1.5 sacks with a forced fumble in Week 10.

Rodgers, who recorded three touchdown passes last week, became the fourth quarterback with at least 500 combined passing and rushing touchdowns (466 passing, 34 rushing), joining TOM BRADY, DREW BREES and Pro Football Hall of Famer PEYTON MANNING. Running back AARON JONES recorded 138 rushing yards and a touchdown last week and has at least 150 scrimmage yards in two of his past three games. He also has a rushing touchdown in two of his last three games on Thursday. Rookie wide receiver CHRISTIAN WATSON led the team with 107 receiving yards and three touchdown catches last week and is the only rookie with three touchdown receptions in a game this season.

Linebacker DE’VONDRE CAMPBELL, who has 64 tackles (eight per game) this season, had a career-high 17 tackles and two forced fumbles in his only career game against Tennessee (Week 4, 2019 with Atlanta). Rookie linebacker QUAY WALKER has at least five tackles in each of his first 10 career games, the most such games among rookies, and aims for his third in a row with a tackle for loss. He also ranks second among all rookies with 69 tackles. Cornerback JAIRE ALEXANDER had three passes defensed in the last meeting against the Titans and aims for his third in a row at home and fourth in a row overall with a pass defensed. Cornerback RASUL DOUGLAS has at least five tackles in three of his past four this season and an interception in three of his five career Thursday Night Football games.

Prime Video will stream 15 Thursday Night Football games this season (Weeks 2-17, excluding Thanksgiving). The game will feature Al Michaels, Kirk Herbstreit and Kaylee Hartung on the call.

Second-Highest Digital AMA on Record for NFL Network International Game

Viewership for Sunday’s game featuring the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ 21-16 win over the Seattle Seahawks in Munich was 5.8 million viewers* (TV+Digital) – surpassing the New York Giants-Green Bay Packers Week 5 game from London this year to be NFL Network’s most-watched International game on record (2016-present).

The 5.8 million viewers for Seahawks-Buccaneers on TV and Digital is up +5% versus Giants-Packers in Week 5, up +19% versus Minnesota Vikings vs. New Orleans in Week 4 from London this year, and up +63% versus last year’s Week 5 matchup from London between the New York Jets and Atlanta Falcons.

The three International games on NFL Network this season – Vikings-Saints, Giants-Packers and Seahawks-Buccaneers – were the three most-watched International games ever on the network.

Digital streaming across NFL digital platforms (including NFL+) delivered an average minute audience of 259K –the second-highest digital AMA on record for an NFL Network International game behind only Giants-Packers from Week 5 this year.

The Starting 11 — NFL enjoying its most competitive season in 90 years

The Starting 11 — NFL enjoying its most competitive season in 90 years

Quality over quantity.

While stellar defensive play across the league is evident, fans, players and coaches have come to expect Sunday recipes complete with razor-thin margins, fantastic finishes and fourth-quarter drama.

NFL games this season have been separated by an average of only 9.29 points. To put that in context, the last time the league finished a season with a lower average margin of victory was 1932, when the figure was 9.13.

This past week, 12 of 14 games were within one score (eight points) in the fourth quarter and there have been 116 games within one score in the fourth quarter this season, the most through the first 10 weeks in NFL history.

The playoffs begin in nine weeks. As the league approaches the third turn on its 2022 track, which teams will separate from the crowded field? Whoever emerges in Week 18, expect plenty of photo finishes along the way.

The Starting 11 entering Week 11…

1.     FÚTBOL AMERICANO: Four of the last six teams to play a regular-season game in Mexico have advanced to the playoffs, and each of the last two teams to win a Mexico game went on to play in the Super Bowl (the 2017 NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS and 2019 KANSAS CITY CHIEFS). This week, the NFL returns to Estadio Azteca when SAN FRANCISCO (5-4) battles ARIZONA (4-6) on Monday Night Football (8:15 PM ET, ESPN).

  • Monday marks the NFL’s fifth regular-season game in Mexico, and 12th overall. In 1978, the league played its first Mexico game, when the Saints beat the Eagles in a preseason contest.
  • On Oct. 2, 2005, the Cardinals beat the 49ers, 31-14, at Estadio Azteca in the NFL’s first regular-season game played outside the United States.
  • And, at a preseason contest on Aug. 15, 1994, the Dallas Cowboys and Houston Oilers drew an NFL-record 112,376 at Estadio Azteca.

2.     NUMBER OF THE WEEK – 2,002: Minnesota wide receiver JUSTIN JEFFERSON is on pace to lead the league with 2,002 receiving yards and break the NFL’s single-season record established by Pro Football Hall of Famer CALVIN JOHNSON, 1,964 in 2012.

  • Chiefs quarterback PATRICK MAHOMES is on pace to lead the league with 5,546 passing yards and break the NFL’s single-season record established by Pro Football Hall of Famer PEYTON MANNING, 5,477 in 2013.

3.     COMMANDERS OF THE MOUNTAIN: In two of the past three seasons, WASHINGTON has handed the NFL’s last undefeated team its first loss. Washington was the first to defeat 11-0 Pittsburgh in Week 13 of the 2020 season and the first to defeat 8-0 Philadelphia this past Monday night. Now, having won four of their last five, the Commanders (5-5) meet the HOUSTON TEXANS (1-7-1) on Sunday at NRG Stadium (1:00 PM ET, FOX).

4.     SPOTLIGHT – INDIVIDUAL MATCHUP: Jets defensive tackle QUINNEN WILLIAMS meets Patriots offensive lineman MICHAEL ONWENU in the trenches at Gillette Stadium on Sunday (1:00 PM ET, CBS). Williams, the AFC’s October Defensive Player of the Month, has already matched his single-season career best with seven sacks. Onwenu, who hasn’t allowed a sack this season and has solidified a reputation as a dominant run-blocker, earned his way onto several mid-season All-Pro teams this past week.

5.     SPOTLIGHT – TEAM MATCHUP: Pass protection figures to be a key factor when DALLAS (6-3) visits MINNESOTA (8-1) on Sunday (4:25 PM ET, CBS). The Cowboys’ defense leads the league with 35 sacks, on pace for 66 this season, which would be the most by an NFL team since New Orleans had 66 in 2000. Meanwhile, Vikings linebacker ZA’DARIUS SMITH ranks second in the league and tied for the NFC lead with 9.5 sacks. He’s on pace for 18 sacks this season, which would be the most by a Vikings player since JARED ALLEN had 22 in 2011.

  • The last time the Cowboys met the Vikings at any point in a season and both teams were at least three games above .500 was Nov. 26, 1998, when Minnesota (10-1) traveled to Dallas (8-3). Pro Football Hall of Famers CRIS CARTER and RANDY MOSS, a rookie, combined for 298 receiving yards and four touchdown catches in a 46-36 Vikings win.

6.     STREAK SPEAK: The NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (5-4) have 13 straight wins over the NEW YORK JETS (6-3), whom they host on Sunday at Gillette Stadium (1:00 PM ET, CBS). That’s tied with Kansas City (over Denver) for the NFL’s longest active winning streak by one team over another. The Jets’ last win over the Patriots was Dec. 27, 2015. … Should the Jets break the streak, they’ll be in first place in the AFC East, having won a head-to-head game over Miami (7-3).

7.     DID YOU KNOW?: Each of the BUFFALO BILLS’ three losses this season have been by three points or fewer. The three teams that have defeated Buffalo are a combined 21-7 (.750): Minnesota (8-1), Miami (7-3) and the New York Jets (6-3).

8.     UNDER-THE-RADAR STORYLINE: Over the past 16 seasons in which either MIKE SHANAHAN or KYLE SHANAHAN have served as an NFL head coach, their teams have had 15 different leading rushers. With the elder Shanahan as head coach from 2003-13, nine different players led NFL teams over 10 combined seasons (2003-08 with Denver and 2010-13 with Washington). And from 2017-21, San Francisco had a different leading rusher in each of the younger Shanahan’s first five seasons as 49ers head coach. The 49ers could also have their sixth different leading rusher in 2022.

9.     TREND TIME: Under head coach JOHN HARBAUGH, Baltimore is 11-3 (.786) in games immediately after a bye. That’s the second-best record among active coaches (minimum seven games), trailing only ANDY REID (21-3, .875). Fresh off its bye, BALTIMORE (6-3) hosts CAROLINA (3-7) on Sunday (1:00 PM ET, FOX).

10.  THIS WEEK IN NFL HISTORY: Nov. 19, 1922 (100 years ago) – NORB SACKSTEDER, a 5-foot-9, 173-pound back, scores on a 35-yard, fourth-quarter touchdown pass from LOU SMYTH to give the CANTON BULLDOGS a 7-0 win over the CHICAGO CARDINALS at Comiskey Park. The victory helps Canton move closer to an eventual 1922 NFL championship and extend one of the most impressive streaks in league history, an eventual NFL-record 27 games without defeat. The NFL’s first true powerhouse, the Bulldogs go 24-0-3 over that 27-game stretch in the early 1920s, led by future Pro Football Hall of Fame player-coach GUY CHAMBERLIN.

11.  AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST: In 2009, the last time the MINNESOTA VIKINGS were 8-1, they advanced to the NFC Championship Game. In 2016, the last time the GREEN BAY PACKERS were 4-6, they also advanced to the NFC Championship Game.

Royals announce roster moves

KANSAS CITY, Mo.—The Kansas City Royals today announced several roster moves to set their Major League Reserve List at 40.

The Royals selected right-handed pitcher Alec Marsh, catcher Freddy Fermin and outfielder Diego Hernández. In a trio of corresponding moves, left-handed pitcher Jake Brentz, right-handed pitcher Nate Webb and outfielder Brent Rooker have been designated for assignment.

Additionally, Ryan O’Hearn has agreed to a Major League contract for 2023, avoiding arbitration.

Marsh, 24, made 27 starts in 2022, including 25 with Double-A Northwest Arkansas and 2 with Triple-A Omaha. He led all Royals farmhands with 156 strikeouts in 124.1 innings (11.3 K/9), including 147 with the Naturals, which set a new franchise record for the affiliate and were the most in the Texas League. Marsh, who was selected by Kansas City in the 2nd round of the 2019 First-Year Player Draft, was the Royals representative in the 2022 SiriusXM Futures Game.

Fermin, 27, made his Major League debut with the Royals in 2022 and appeared in three games. In 87 games at Triple-A Omaha, he slashed .270/.365/.480 (80-for-296) with career highs in home runs (15), doubles (17), RBI (56) and walks (46). Fermin was signed by the Royals as an international free agent in 2015.

Hernández, who will turn 22 next week, played in 115 games in 2022 between High-A Quad Cities (83) and Double-A Northwest Arkansas (32) and slashed .284/.347/.407 (129-for-454) with career highs in hits, doubles (21), triples (4), home runs (9) and RBI (40). He also stole 40 bases, which ranked 3rd among Royals minor leaguers. Hernández was signed by Kansas City as an international free agent in 2017.

O’Hearn, 29, was one of four Royals who were on the active roster for the entire 2022 season. He led the Majors with 11 pinch hits, batting .367 in a pinch with 4 extra-base hits and 6 RBI. His 11 pinch hits in 2022 tied for the 4th most by a Royal in a single season, and in 60 plate appearances overall after the All-Star break, O’Hearn hit .321 (18-for-56) with a .777 OPS.

Astros re-sign RHP Rafael Montero

HOUSTON, TX – The Astros have re-signed free agent right-handed pitcher Rafael Montero to a three-year contract. Additional terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Montero, 32, had an excellent season with the Astros this year. He recorded a career-low 2.37 ERA (18ER/68.1IP) with a 5-2 record along with 73 strikeouts, 14 saves and a 1.02 WHIP in a career-high 71 appearances. The Dominican reliever was a part of the Astros combined no-hitter in Game 4 of the World Series, where he tossed one scoreless inning with one strikeout. During this year’s postseason, he recorded a 1.93 ERA (2ER.9.1IP) with 10 strikeouts and a .156 opponent batting average.

Houston acquired Montero before the 2021 trade deadline from the Seattle Mariners. In his career with Houston, he’s notched a 2.18 ERA (18ER/74.1IP) with a .191 opponent batting average.

Over the past 8 seasons, Montero has made 212 appearances for the New York Mets (2014-17), Texas Rangers (2019-20), Seattle Mariners (2021) and Houston Astros (2021-22), respectively. Primarily as a reliever, Montero has posted a 4.64 ERA (184ER/356.2IP) in his career while tallying 357 strikeouts in 356.2 innings pitched.
