NOTAS DE LA NFL DE LA DECIMOTERCERA SEMANA

Los 11 titulares – La NFL se sumerge en diciembre con tres partidos entre equipos en el primer puesto

 

Es la decisión más valiente en todos los deportes.

Con poco o nada de tiempo en el reloj del cuarto periodo, tras una anotación que reduce tu desventaja a un punto, ¿pateas para igualar el partido y juegas por el triunfo en la prórroga? ¿O vas por dos?

Después de que JUSTIN HERBERT la semana pasada en Arizona lanzara un pase de anotación a AUSTIN EKELER con 15 segundos en el reloj, acercando a Chargers 24-23, el entrenador en jefe BRANDON STALEY tomó la decisión.

Y el subproducto de la fe y confianza de Staley en sus jugadores fue su fe y confianza en él.

"Simplemente demuestra cuánto cree realmente en nosotros, el coraje que tiene", dijo el ala cerrada GERALD EVERETT, quien atrapó el pase de Herbert para convertir una jugada de dos puntos y darle a los Chargers una victoria de 25-24. "Hemos estado esperando tanto tiempo para tener ese momento, para ser agresivos. Partidos apretados como este contra buenos equipos. ¿Qué mejor manera de terminar en un partido apretado que ir por dos y que ese sea el factor decisivo?

También fue el factor decisivo en Jacksonville. Después de que TREVOR LAWRENCE orquestó una serie anotadora de 10 jugadas y 75 yardas para reducir la ventaja de Baltimore a 27-26 con 14 segundos en el reloj, el entrenador en jefe, DOUG PEDERSON, tomó la misma decisión y ZAY JONES atrapó el pase ganador del partido de Lawrence para superar a Ravens 28-27.

En tres ocasiones este año, más de cualquier temporada desde que la NFL introdujo la conversión de dos puntos, en 1994, un entrenador en jefe "ha ido por dos" para ganar un partido y terminó ganando. La semana pasada sucedió dos veces el domingo, más de cualquier día en los anales de la liga. En la primera semana, el entrenador en jefe de Giants, BRIAN DABOLL, pidió una jugada para anotar los dos puntos ganadores del partido con poco más de un minuto restante en lo que a la postre fue triunfo 21-20 en Tennessee.

Tampoco lo llames coincidencia. El catalizador de esas tres victorias es la abundancia de remontadas y partidos cerrados de la NFL en 2022. Esta temporada, 57 partidos han sido ganados o empatados por equipos que iban perdiendo en el último cuarto, y 79 se han sido definidos por seis puntos o menos, ambas mayores cantidades de partidos respectivamente a lo largo de 12 semanas en cualquier temporada de la NFL.

Esta semana, NEW YORK GIANTS (7-4) recibe a WASHINGTON COMMANDERS (7-5) (domingo, 1:00 PM, hora de New York, FOX). En partidos decididos por seis puntos o menos, Giants está 5-0 y Commanders está 5-2. Otro par de equipos que se han destacado en esos partidos –NEW YORK JETS (7-4) y MINNESOTA VIKINGS (9-2)– se enfrentan en U.S. Bank Stadium domingo (1:00 PM, hora de New York, CBS). Vikings está 4-0 en partidos decididos por seis puntos o menos mientras que Jets está 3-1.

Por lo tanto, no abandone su asiento, no importa el resultado. En la NFL, el drama al final del partido está asegurado; la cuestión es cuándo suceda.

Los 11 titulares llegando a la semana 13…

1.     LA CLASE DE 2020 HA SIDO EXCEPCIONAL DESPUÉS DEL 1 DE DICIEMBRE. Los mariscales de campo JUSTIN HERBERT y TUA TAGOVAILOA, productos de la clase 2020 del draft de mariscales de campo, tienen cada uno siete victorias en su carrera en titularidades de temporada regular a partir del 1 de diciembre. JOE BURROW, primerísima selección global de esa clase, ganó tres titularidades consecutivas al final de la temporada, mientras que la selección global No. 53 en 2020, JALEN HURTS, también llevó a su equipo a tres victorias consecutivas después del cambio de calendario a Diciembre

  • La última vez que cuatro mariscales de campo de la misma clase del draft titularizaron en los playoffs fue en 2005, cuando REX GROSSMANBYRON LEFTWICHCARSON PALMER y CHRIS SIMMS, todos reclutados en 2003, llevaron a sus equipos a la postemporada.

2.     NÚMERO DE LA SEMANA – 3. El número de partidos en el calendario de la semana 13 que emparejan equipos en primer lugar. Dos de esos tres, TENNESSEE (7-4) en PHILADELFIA (10-1) el domingo (1:00 p. m. ET, FOX) y MIAMI (8-3) en SAN FRANCISCO (7-4) el domingo (4:05 PM ET, FOX), son candidatos potenciales del Super Bowl LVII. El otro –KANSAS CITY (9-2) en CINCINNATI (7-4) el domingo (4:25 PM, hora de New York, CBS)– involucra a equipos que participaron en dos de los partidos más emocionantes de la temporada 2021, un infartante duelo en la semana 17 y también el Juego de Campeonato de la AFC, ambos ganados por Bengals. Cincinnati ingresa a semana 13 en la cima, empatado con Baltimore, de la AFC Norte.

3.     BOLTS, RAIDERS REACTIVAN LOS RECUERDOS DE LA FINAL DE 2021LOS ANGELES CHARGERS (6-5) y LAS VEGAS RAIDERS (4-7) se enfrentan el domingo (4:25 PM, hora de New York, CBS) en Allegiant Stadium, sede del final de la temporada regular de la NFL 2021. En ese clásico, Raiders obtuvo el último lugar en los playoffs de la liga con un triunfo de 35-32, cuando DANIEL CARLSON conectó un gol de campo de 47 yardas cuando el tiempo expiraba en el reloj de la prórroga.

  • El mariscal de campo de Chargers, JUSTIN HERBERT, tiene 88 pases anotadores y 12,354 yardas aéreas en su carrera. En la historia de la NFL, a lo largo de las primeras tres temporadas de un jugador, sólo el miembro del Salón de la Fama DAN MARINO (98) tuvo más pases anotadores y nada más que ANDREW LUCK (12,957) tuvo más yardas aéreas.
  • El corredor de Raiders JOSH JACOBS, que lidera la NFL esta temporada con 1,159 yardas por tierra, aspira en convertirse en el primer jugador de Raiders que lidera la liga en yardas terrestres desde que el miembro del Salón de la Fama MARCUS ALLEN lo hiciera en 1985. La semana pasada Jacobs registró una marca de la franquicia en un mismo partido con 303 yardas desde la línea de golpeo (229 acarreando, 74 recibiendo) junto con dos acarreos anotadores, incluyendo el acarreo anotador ganador del partido de 86 yardas en la prórroga.

4.      BAJO LOS REFLECTORES – ENFRENTAMIENTO INDIVIDUALMINNESOTA (9-2) puede asegurarse su primera corona de la división desde 2017 con una victoria y una derrota de Detroit esta semana. Eso no es todo lo que entrará en la conversación el domingo, cuando Vikings reciba a NEW YORK JETS (7-4) en U.S. Bank Stadium (1:00 PM, hora de New York, CBS). El esquinero novato de los Jets SAUCE GARDNER lidera la NFL con 14 pases defendidos. Esperen que Gardner se alinee para varias jugadas frente al receptor JUSTIN JEFFERSON, quien la semana pasada alcanzó 4,248 yardas recibidas en su carrera, superando al miembro del Salón de la Fama RANDY MOSS (4,163) y a ODELL BECKHAM JR. (4,122) para la mayor cantidad en las primeras tres temporadas de un jugador en la historia de la NFL.

5.      BAJO LOS REFLECTORES – ENFRENTAMIENTO DE EQUIPOS. El excoordinador ofensivo de San Francisco y entrenador en jefe de Miami, MIKE MCDANIEL, debe atravesar todo el país con sus Dolphins para enfrentarse con los 49ers el domingo (4:05 p. m., hora del este, FOX). La ofensiva de McDaniel en Miami cuenta con el pasador líder de la liga, TUA TAGOVAILOA (rating de 115.7), y TYREEK HILL, quien lidera la NFL tanto en recepciones (87) como en yardas recibiendo (1,233). Cuando Dolphins tenga el balón, enfrentará quizás su prueba más dura de la temporada. Dirigido por el coordinador DEMECO RYANS, San Francisco lidera la NFL tanto en menos puntos permitidos (15.7 por juego) como en defensiva total (281.7 yardas permitidas por juego). 49ers blanqueó a a sus oponentes en los últimos seis cuartos jugados.

6.     RACHAS QUE HABLANNEW ORLEANS SAINTS (4-8) se enfrenta a TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (5-6) en el clásico de lunes en la noche Monday Night Football (8:15 p. m. ET, ESPN). New Orleans ha ganado cuatro partidos seguidos en el estadio Raymond James. Durante los últimos nueve cuartos del equipo en esa sede, los Saints han superado a los Buccaneers 54-3.

7.     ¿LO SABÍAS? Si la temporada terminase hoy, los cuatro equipos de la NFC Este estarían en la postemporada. En la historia de la NFL, una división individual nunca ha clasificado a todos sus equipos para la postemporada.

8.     HISTORIA BAJO EL RADAR. Esta semana, la NFL inicia la "Unboxing Week", cuando los jugadores de toda la liga exhiben los zapatos personalizados #MyCauseMyCleats que usarán para reconocer las diversas causas que apoyan. Una de esas causas aparecerá en el calzado de tres jugadores en el Lincoln Financial Field, cuando TENNESSEE (7-4) visite a PHILADELPHIA (10-1) el domingo (1:00 p. m., hora del este, FOX).

  • El liniero defensivo de Titans LARRELL MURCHISON, así como dos miembros de Eagles, el apoyador SHAUN BRADLEY y el pateador JAKE ELLIOTT, son tres de los 10 jugadores de la liga que usan botines para apoyar a Everytown, una organización que trabaja para reducir la violencia armada (www.everytown.org).
  • El mariscal de campo de Philadelfia, JALEN HURTS, que usa botines para apoyar tanto a OneMindSet Foundation como a Eagles Autism Foundation, jugó uno de los partidos ofensivos más completos de la historia en la victoria de la semana pasada. Hurts se convirtió en el primer jugador en la historia de la NFL en alcanzar las 150 yardas terrestres, 150 yardas aéreas y dos pases anotadores en el mismo partido. Uno de esos pases anotadores fue para el receptor abierto A.J. BROWN, que juega esta semana con su exequipo. Brown está apoyando la Open Door Abuse Awareness & Prevention (Concientización y Prevención del Abuso de Puertas Abiertas, ODAAP).

9.     TENDENCIA. La selección global No. 12 en el Draft de la NFL 2021, el apoyador MICAH PARSONS, y DALLAS COWBOYS (8-3) reciben a INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (4-7-1) en el clásico de domingo en la noche Sunday Night Football (8:20 p. m. ET, NBC). Parsons, quien tiene 12 capturas esta temporada, posee nueve partidos de múltiples capturas en su carrera, empatado con ALDON SMITH en la mayor cantidad de juegos con dos o más capturas en las dos primeras temporadas de un jugador desde 1982, cuando la captura individual se convirtió en una estadística oficial. Parsons también es apenas el tercer jugador con 12 o más capturas en cada una de sus dos primeras temporadas en la NFL desde 1982, uniéndose a Smith y al miembro del Salón de la Fama REGGIE WHITE.

10.  ESTA SEMANA EN LA HISTORIA DE LA NFL. 7 de diciembre de 1997 (hace 25 años) – KORDELL STEWART y Steelers borran una desventaja de dos anotaciones en una victoria 35-24 sobre Denver en Three Rivers Stadium. Stewart lanza 303 yardas y tres anotaciones, y acarrea otras dos anotaciones en la victoria. Tres semanas después, Denver ingresa en los playoffs como equipo comodín y gana tres partidos consecutivos, incluido el triunfo 24-21 en Pittsburgh en el partido de Campeonato de la AFC, en camino a una victoria en el Super Bowl XXXII sobre Green Bay.

11.  Y POR ÚLTIMO, PERO NO MENOS IMPORTANTEGREEN BAY PACKERS (4-8) y CHICAGO BEARS (3-9) lucharán por algo más que orgullo el domingo en Soldier Field (1:00 p. m. ET, FOX). Cada equipo tiene 786 victorias de franquicia en temporada regular, empatando la mayor cantidad en la historia de la NFL. La última vez que la franquicia de Bears no lideró la NFL en victorias de temporada regular de todos los tiempos fue el diciembre de 1921. …El entrenador en jefe de Packers, MATT LAFLEUR, tiene tirunfos en cada uno de sus primeros siete partidos contra Chicago.

AFC Players of the Week - Week 12

RAIDERS RB JOSH JACOBS, BILLS DT ED OLIVER &CHARGERS P JK SCOTT NAMED AFC PLAYERS OF WEEK 12 

Running back JOSH JACOBS of the Las Vegas Raiders, defensive tackle ED OLIVER of the Buffalo Bills and punter JK SCOTT of the Los Angeles Chargers are the AFC Offensive, Defensive and Special Teams Players of the Week for games played in Week 12 (November 24, 27-28).

OFFENSE: RB JOSH JACOBS, LAS VEGAS RAIDERS

  • Jacobs recorded a career-high 303 scrimmage yards (229 rushing and 74 receiving) and two rushing touchdowns, including the game-winning 86-yard touchdown in overtime to defeat Seattle on the road in Week 12. Jacobs’ 303 scrimmage yards are the most by a player in a single game since 2015 and he became the sixth player in NFL history with at least 300 scrimmage yards and multiple scrimmage touchdowns in a single game.
  • His 86-yard touchdown run in overtime is the second-longest overtime rushing touchdown and fourth-longest overtime scrimmage touchdown since 1974.
  • This is the first Offensive Player of the Week award for Jacobs and he becomes the first Raiders running back to earn the honor since Michael Bush (Week 10, 2011). 
  • He is the fifth former Alabama running back to win the award, joining Shaun Alexander (seven-time winner), Derrick Henry (seven-time winner), Mark Ingram (two-time winner) and Eddie Lacy (two-time winner).

DEFENSE: DT ED OLIVER, BUFFALO BILLS

  • Oliver recorded six tackles, two tackles for loss, a sack that resulted in a safety, a forced fumble and fumble recovery in Buffalo’s 28-25 victory over Detroit on Thanksgiving. He is the only player this season to record both a safety and forced fumble in a single game.  
  • This is the first-career Defensive Player of the Week award for Oliver. He is the third Bills player to win the award this season, joining safety Jordan Poyer (Week 4) and linebacker Matt Milano (Week 11). The Eagles are the only other team with three Defensive Player of the Week winners this season.
  • Oliver is the first former Houston Cougar to earn the honor since linebacker Glenn Cadrez (Week 11, 1999).

SPECIAL TEAMS: P JK SCOTT, LOS ANGELES CHARGERS

  • Scott recorded six punts with an average of 39 yards (36.5 net) and pinned four inside the 20-yard line in the Chargers’ 25-24 win over Arizona in Week 12. His four punts inside the 20 were the most among all AFC punters this week.
  • This is Scott’s first-career Special Teams Player of the Week award and he becomes the first Chargers punter to earn the honor since Ty Long (Week 1, 2019). 
  • Scott becomes the second Alabama punter to ever win the award, joining Chris Mohr (Week 2, 1994).
