2021 NFL power rankings, Week 11: Cowboys, Packers, Bills rebound
After missing three games with a finger injury, veteran quarterback Russell Wilson was back with his team as the Seahawks made their way to Lambeau Field. And it wound up being quite the defensive struggle as Green Bay took a 3-0 lead into the fourth quarter.
But Pete Carroll’s team managed zero points on this afternoon as the Seattle offense managed only 208 total yards. Wilson was sacked three times and threw a pair of end zone interceptions.
After getting back to the .500 mark, the Purple Gang had dropped two consecutive games entering their clash with the Chargers at Los Angeles. But Mike Zimmer’s team came away with a huge road win thanks in part to veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins and a balanced attack.
The Vikings controlled the football for 36:15 and ran 72 plays compared to the Chargers’ 55. Cousins threw for 294 yards and two touchdowns – both to tight end Tyler Conklin.
The Browns headed to Foxborough for the first time since 2018 looking to build on their rout of the Bengals. And the team would be without running back Nick Chubb. But it was the unpredictable Cleveland defense that had its issues. Kevin Stefanski’s club was outgained nearly two to one (452-217).
Quarterback Baker Mayfield left the game after throwing for only 73 yards, one TD and an interception. The Browns are 2-4 in their last six games.
