The NFL had a ton of Saturday games and three on Christmas Sunday. Let’s look at some of the best performances of the week.
Quarterback
Joe Burrow had one of the top outings of the weekend as he led the Bengals to a win over the Patriots. He threw for 375 yards and three touchdowns.
Running back
The Panthers continue to roll behind their strong running game and D’Onta Foreman. Foreman had 165 yards rushing and a touchdown as the Panthers beat the red-hot Lions 37-23.
Wide Receiver
Another big performance from Justin Jefferson got the Vikings yet another win as he had 12 catches for 133 yards and a touchdown. He continues to rack up the yards as he leads the NFL in receiving while he closes in on a potential 2,000-yard season.
Tight End
For the second-straight week George Kittle had two touchdowns. He put on a show against the Commanders with 120 yards and those two touchdown catches. Kittle has been huge for the 49ers without Deebo Samuel.
Defense
The Ravens didn’t allow a touchdown this week against the Atlanta Falcons. Without Lamar Jackson this defense has stepped up to keep the Ravens in the playoff picture in the AFC.
