Which Underdogs Will Shock the NFL Playoffs and Turn Super Wild Card Weekend Upside Down?
In Week 1, Mayfield completed 80% of his passes for 289 yards with four touchdowns for a 146.4 passer rating, as Tampa Bay cruised to a 17-point win. Mike Evans was on the receiving end of two of those touchdowns and hauled in 61 yards receiving as he began his march toward an 11th consecutive season with at least 1,000 receiving yards to match Hall of Famer Jerry Rice for the most in the NFL.
Evans is one of the league’s most productive receivers and creates matchup problems for Washington’s banged-up and suspect secondary. Evans is adept at beating his man in coverage, registering a burn percentage of 70.0 – fourth among the 40 receivers targeted at least 90 times. Washington’s defense, meanwhile, has a league-worst 53.7 burn-allowed percentage.
