• A great bounce-back spot for A.J. Brown: One of the league’s best wide receivers against man coverage should be able to take advantage of the Bills’ susceptible man coverage unit.
• Avoid the Washington receivers when possible this week: The Commanders' receivers have had limited success against man coverage and face one of the best units in the league this week.
• Can the Bengals' wide receivers remain productive without Joe Burrow? Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins both have strong metrics against man coverage and face off against the Steelers' poor man coverage unit in Week 12.
