Week 12 Fantasy Football Wrap: Cardinals @ Patriots
New England Patriots edge Arizona Cardinals, 20-17
Kyler Murray disappointed against a New England defense that entered allowing an NFL-high 8.7 YPA and ranked last in DVOA, failing to record a touchdown after having at least two in every other game this season (Bill Belichick versus young QBs is still a thing). Kenyan Drake nearly had a third rushing score but was stuffed at the inch line on the last play before halftime. His usage is very encouraging moving forward … Damien Harris played a lot better than his box score indicates, while James White got negative receiving yards but scored two goal-line touchdowns, just as everyone expected.
[Week 12 Recaps: MIA-NYJ | SF-LAR | LV-ATL | LAC-BUF | NYG-CIN | TEN-IND | CAR-MIN | ARI-NE | CLE-JAX | NO-DEN | KC-TB | CHI-GB]
Cam Newton got 4.7 YPA while completing just nine passes with no TDs and two picks, yet the Patriots won anyway (Arizona’s record would look a lot different if Zane Gonzalez didn’t have three late misses inside 50 yards this season).
Head-scratching penalty of the week
Somehow in the NFL rule book this is an illegal blindside block and a 15-yard penalty.
