NFL Week 11 takeaways: Steelers make AFC North statement, Lions hang 52 points, Packers hold on for win (Lions - Can the Lions keep overcoming injuries to key players? So far, yes. It's next man up in Detroit. Lions captain Alex Anzalone was ruled out with a forearm injury at the start of the second half, but Detroit still dominated in his absence, scoring 50-plus points in multiple games in a season for the first time in franchise history. The Lions also lost Defensive Player of the Year candidate Aidan Hutchinson to a leg injury earlier this season, but traded for Za'Darius Smith last week, who recorded a sack in his Lions debut on Sunday. This Lions team has plenty of depth and has proven to be a resilient group.):  https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/42446900/nfl-week-11-2024-questions-takeaways-lessons-stats-recap-every-game

NFL Week 11: What We Learned from each Sunday game (Kevin Patra's takeaways:  1. Lions gobble up a franchise-best 645 yards, trounce Jags. We could point out Jared Goff's perfect 158.3 passer rating with 412 yards and four touchdowns. We could extoll the efforts of Sonic and Knuckles, with Jahmyr Gibbs generating 123 scrimmage yards with a TD and David Montgomery earning 75 yards and two scores. We could point out Amon-Ra St. Brown uncoverable, catching all 11 of his targets for 161 yards and two TDs. We could highlight Jameson Williams exploding for a 64-yard TD and going for 124 receiving yards. Instead, give the big boys some love for Detroit scoring touchdowns on seven consecutive drives to open the game. Dan Campbell's club didn't punt on the day. The Lions' offensive line absolutely dominated the contest. It looked like a 7-on-7 practice for Detroit. Goff had all day to pick apart Jacksonville's defense, pressured on just six dropbacks -- of which he completed four passes for 135 yards and two TDs. The trenches highlighted the biggest difference between Jacksonville and Detroit. One is built to mash in the trenches. The other remains wanting.  2. Jags limping toward the finish of Doug Pederson era. NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported that another regime change could come following Sunday's game in Detroit. The Jags gave Shad Khan every reason to make a change following a franchise-worst 46-point loss. Settling for an opening drive 59-yard field goal felt like an early moral victory. For the rest of the game, the Jags were outclassed in every phase. The defense offered zero resistance. It marked the second time this season Ryan Nielsen's D allowed at least five consecutive touchdown drives to open a game (Week 3 in Buffalo). The offense generated little on the ground, and Mac Jones was scattershot, missing badly down the sideline. Sans Trevor Lawrence, Jacksonville had little chance against the high-powered Lions. However, Sunday showed just how yawning the gap is between the clubs. Week 11 was an organizational failure. Heading into the bye week, expect significant changes.  3. Smith adds immediate pop to Lions front. Trade deadline acquisition Za'Darius Smith led the Lions with four QB pressures and was involved in Detroit's only sack of the game (while rushing from the interior). Playing 36 snaps (76.6 %), Smith's production should improve as he gets more acquainted with the defense. The Lions still struggled to generate consistent pressure, and their blitzes don't always get home. However, a smothering secondary makes up for the lack of QB takedowns. Once again, Kerby Joseph came up with a red zone interception, and Brian Branch was all over the field. The young tandem is fun to watch. One big injury to watch: linebacker Alex Anzalone is expected to miss six to eight weeks with a broken forearm.  Next Gen Stats Insight for Jaguars-Lions (via NFL Pro): Amon-Ra St. Brown caught all 11 of his targets for a season-high 161 yards and two touchdowns (+2.9 receptions over expected), including eight receptions for a season-high 121 yards and one touchdown against off coverage (5+ yards of cushion).  NFL Research: Detroit became the first team since the 2007 Patriots to score a touchdown on each of its first seven drives of a game. The Lions are also the first club since the 2014 Rams to score seven-plus touchdowns and allow zero TDs in a game.):  https://www.nfl.com/news/nfl-week-11-2024-nfl-season-what-we-learned-from-each-sunday-game

Week 11 winners and losers: Steelers, Lions on a roll (Winner: The Lions' NFC North title bid.  Detroit beat up on yet another team Sunday, with Jared Goff, Amon-Ra St. Brown and Co. maintaining their awe-inspiring offense. But the Lions also had to be smiling at the rest of the NFC North, with the mercurial Green Bay Packers barely sneaking past the Chicago Bears in an ugly divisional matchup, and the Minnesota Vikings failing to rout any of their three straight AFC South opponents.):  https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/2024-nfl-week-11-winners-and-losers-lions-steelers-are-complete-teams-jaguars-jets-are-total-flops/

Grades:

CBS Grades (Lions Grade - A+. After a close call in Week 10, the Lions made sure this one didn't go down to the wire: This one was over by halftime. The Lions played nearly perfect football on both offense and defense. Jared Goff had his way with the Jaguars secondary, throwing for 412 yards and four touchdowns. Jameson Williams and Amon-Ra St. Brown both went over 100 receiving yards and David Montgomery led the way on the ground with two touchdowns. The defense beat up on a Jaguars offense that didn't score a touchdown. This win shows why the Lions are a great team: This could have easily been a trap game for Detroit, but instead, the Lions beat up on a bad team.):  https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-week-11-grades-steelers-earn-high-mark-for-wild-win-over-ravens-lions-get-a-for-thrashing-jaguars/
