@Ari | | | Jason Myers has booted seven field goals in his last three games for Seattle and will face an Arizona squad in Week 18 allowing 27.1 points per tilt, which is 31st in the NFL. | ||
@Was | | | Brandon Aubrey has hit multiple field goals in four of the last five games for the Cowboys and will face a dismal Washington squad in Week 18 allowing 30 points per contest, which is dead last in the league. | ||
@NYG | | | Jake Elliott booted four field goals for the Eagles the last time they played their Week 18 opponent, the New York Giants, whose squad is allowing 24.8 points per contest, which is 28th in the NFL. | ||
@Ind | | | Ka'imi Fairbairn has made four field goals twice in Houston's last three games, and he could be busy again in Week 18 as the Texans try to secure a playoff berth against a Colts team that's allowing 24.5 points per game -- sixth-most in the NFL. | ||
Pit | | | Justin Tucker has scored at least eight points in six straight games, and he could see plenty of opportunities in Week 18 as the Ravens face a Steelers team that's tied for 26th in field goal attempts allowed this season. | ||
@Car | | | Chase McLaughlin failed to attempt a field goal last week for only the second time this season, giving him little momentum heading into the Buccaneers' Week 18 matchup against a vulnerable Panthers defense. | ||
@GB | | | Cairo Santos is tied for fourth in the NFL with 32 made FGs this season for the Bears, and in Week 18 he'll be kicking in Green Bay, whose defense has allowed 21.3 points per game to opposing teams, which ranks 14th in the league. | ||
Den | | | Daniel Carlson hasn't missed a kick in the last three games, converting four field goals and 11 extra points, and he could be busy in Week 18 as the Raiders take on a Broncos team that's allowing 24.1 points per game, tied for 25th in the league. | ||
@LAC | | | Harrison Butker booted a season-high six field goals last week, but he may not get as many opportunities in Week 18 as Kansas City takes on a Chargers team that's far more prone to giving up touchdowns, sitting tied for 25th in points per game allowed but tied for sixth in FG attempts allowed. | ||
Chi | | | Anders Carlson has made 26 of his 31 FG attempts and 32 of his 37 XP attempts this season for the Packers, and in Week 18 he'll be kicking at home against a Bears defense that has allowed 22.6 points per game to opposing teams, which ranks 20th in the NFL this season. | ||
Hou | | | Matt Gay has made multiple field goals in nine of his last 14 games for the Colts heading into a pivotal Week 18 home game against a Texans team that ranks in the middle of the pack with 20.9 points allowed per game. | ||
NYJ | | | Chad Ryland has missed nine of his 24 field-goal attempts for the Patriots in 2023, and in Week 18, he gets a Jets team that's allowing 22.0 points per game this season, which ranks in the middle of the pack. | ||
Jax | | | Nick Folk has made 29 of 30 field-goal attempts heading into Tennessee's Week 18 season finale against a Jaguars team that ranks in the middle of the pack defensively with 21.4 points allowed per game. | ||
Min | | | Michael Badgley has now made each of his three FG attempts across three games since taking over as the Lions' kicker, and in Week 18 he'll be kicking at home against a Minnesota defense that allows opposing teams to average 20.8 points per game, which ranks 12th in the NFL. | ||
Dal | | | Brandon McManus made all four of his field-goal attempts in Jacksonville's last game after going 4-for-9 over the previous five, so he seems to have shaken his slump heading into a pivotal Week 18 road game against a Titans team that ranks in the middle of the pack with 21.7 points per game allowed. | ||
@NE | | | Greg Zuerlein has missed just two of his 34 field-goal attempts for the Jets this season, and in Week 18, he'll get a Patriots defense that has allowed 21.8 points per game so far in 2023, which ranks in the middle of the pack. | ||
@Mia | | | Tyler Bass has missed five of his 29 field-goal attempts for the Bills this season, and in Week 18, he'll get a Dolphins defense that has given up 23.1 points per game so far in 2023, which ranks in the middle of the pack. | ||
Sea | | | Matt Prater has six field goals in his last three games for Arizona and will face a Seattle squad in Week 18 allowing 23.9 points per tilt, which is 24th in the NFL. | ||
Phi | | | Mason Crosby missed a field goal and an extra point last game for the Giants but will face an Eagles squad in Week 18 allowing 25.1 points per tilt, which is 29th in the NFL. | ||
Chi | | | Greg Joseph has made exactly one FG in each of the last five games for the Vikings, and in Week 18 he'll face a Detroit defense that allows 23.4 points per game to opposing teams, the 10th-highest scoring average against in the NFL this season. | ||
LAR | | | Jake Moody has connected on four field goals in his last three games for San Francisco, though the Niners may be resting some starters in Week 18 versus a Rams squad allowing 22.3 points per tilt, which is 19th in the league. | ||
Cle | | | Evan McPherson hasn't kicked more than two field goals in a game since Week 3, giving him limited upside in Week 18 as the Bengals take on a Browns team that has allowed just 23 field-goal attempts all season, tied for third in the league. | ||
Atl | | | Blake Grupe made multiple field goals last week for the first time in his last four games as the Saints head into a Week 18 matchup against Atlanta. | ||
@NO | | | Younghoe Koo has missed multiple field goals in two of his last four games as Atlanta heads into a Week 18 matchup against the Saints. | ||
TB | | | Eddy Pineiro was sidelined by a hamstring injury last week and could be forced to miss Carolina's Week 18 matchup against Tampa Bay. | ||
@SF | | | Brett Maher is back with the Rams for Week 18 and will face a San Francisco squad that may be resting several starters, as the Niners have locked up the No. 1 seed in the NFC. | ||
@Cin | | | Dustin Hopkins missed last week's game due to a hamstring injury, and he could be replaced by Riley Patterson again in Week 18 as the Browns face a Bengals team that ranks in the bottom 12 in points per game allowed and field goal attempts allowed. | ||
KC | | | Cameron Dicker has kicked eight field goals in the last two games, but he's unlikely to be that busy in Week 18 as the Chargers face a Kansas City team that ranks in the top three in points per game allowed and FG attempts allowed. | ||
@LV | | | Wil Lutz has missed a field-goal attempt in each of the last two games, and he may not have opportunities to squander in Week 18 as the Broncos face a Raiders team that's allowing 19.8 points per game, eighth in the league. | ||
@Bal | | | Chris Boswell has been perfect over the last two games with five field goals and seven extra points, and with the Steelers fighting for a wild-card spot and the Ravens potentially resting multiple players, he could be busy in Week 18, even against a team allowing a league-low 16.4 points per game. | ||
Buf | | | Jason Sanders has missed just four of his 28 field-goal attempts this season for the Dolphins, but in Week 18, he gets a Bills defense that has allowed 18.6 points per game, the fourth-fewest in the league. | ||
J. SlyeJax - K
| @Ten | | | Joey Slye has made just one field goal in his last four games for Washington and will face a stout Cowboys defense in Week 18 allowing just 19.1 points per tilt, which is fifth in the NFL. |
