Detroit Lions 40, Jacksonville Jaguars 14

Offensive spotlight:When you put up 40 points, chances are there are a lot of guys who deserve a spotlight offensively. The dynamic duo ofAmon-Ra St. BrownandD.J. Charkdeserve to be mentioned first, though. St. Brown hauled in 11 of his 12 targets for 114 yards and two scores, while Chark caught five of six targets for 98 yards. Both performances were highly indicative of their skill sets — St. Brown consistently moved the chains, and Chark provided the big plays.

Defensive spotlight:CornerbackJeffrey Okudahhas done all he can this season to shake the bust label that followed him his first two seasons with the Lions. Against the Jaguars he was targeted seven times and allowed only two catches for nine yards. Over his past three games, Okudah has allowed a grand total of 26 yards into his coverage.

Philadelphia Eagles 35, Tennessee Titans 10

Offensive spotlight:All three of Hurts’ passing touchdowns came on passes thrown 20-plus yards downfield — two to A.J. Brown and one toDeVonta Smith. Brown joinsDavante Adamsas the only two players with two deep touchdown receptions in multiple games this season.

Tennessee has just three touchdown receptions on throws 20-plus yards downfield as a team this season.

With little room to run against a tough Titans run defense, that kind of performance is why Philadelphia traded for Brown.

Defensive spotlight:Philadelphia’s pass rush got toRyan Tannehillon 13 of his 31 dropbacks, per PFF’s initial review. While a 42% pressure rate is comfortably above league average, Philadelphia’s ability to finish those pressures with sacks made it seem even higher. Josh Sweat, Haason Reddick, Javon Hargrave, Fletcher Cox and Brandon Graham all got home for a sack. Reddick led the way in the pressure column with eight on initial review.
