Josh Allen receives a message from Jalen Hurts as Travis Kelce breaks the record – 10 NFL talking points
NFL Sunday Week 12 featured the good, the bad, and the ugly of quarterbacks.
The Pittsburgh Steelers, without Joe Burrow, dealt a crushing blow to the AFC North-leading Cincinnati Bengals, and CJ Stroud faced off against rival Trevor Lawrence of the AFC South, giving fans a peek of what could be in store for them over the next ten years and beyond.
With a wrist injury sustained in the team’s loss to the Baltimore Ravens, quarterback Brandon Burrow—the highest-paid player in the NFL—was declared out for the remainder of the 2023 season.
After defeating the Las Vegas Raiders 31-17, the Kansas City Chiefs’ pursuit of a repeat Super Bowl appearance is still strong. Additionally, during the game, league-wide record-breaker Travis Kelce, a tight end, broke another record.
He surpassed 11,000 receiving yards and became the fastest tight end to do so. Kelce achieved this with a 91-yard reception in his 154th game. Burrow will have surgery on Monday. With only one touchdown from backup quarterback Jake Browning in their 16-10 loss to Pittsburgh, the AFC North basement boys’ luck continued to deteriorate.Cincinnati is now 5-6 in 2023 as a result of the loss, and the team must now begin preparing for Burrow’s return in 2024.
In another instance, Stroud, a regular season MVP contender in his NFL debut, faced off against one of the top quarterbacks in the league, Lawrence, in a crucial AFC South game involving the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Houston Texans.
Even though the Jaguars won 24–21 at the end of the fourth quarter, the AFC South division is clearly one to watch for many years to come thanks to the outstanding quarterback performance.
