NFL Week 13 winners and losers plus Bake

Welcome to the Monday edition of the Pick Six newsletter!Usually, I open things up on Mondays by writing about how crazy things got over the weekend, but let's be honest, things actually didn't get that crazy. There were 14 games played on Sunday and there was only one upset ( over ). Overall, teams that were favored to win went 12-1-1 on the day. That's boring. I want upsets. I now want to see an upset so badly that I'm officially rooting for the tonight.Although we didn't see very many upsets, there were a few injuries that could end up turning the playoff race upside down. We'll be covering those injuries along with all of our other normal Monday stuff, so let's get to the rundown.As always, here's your weekly reminder to tell all your friends to sign up for the Pick Six newsletter.

Today's show: Week 13 winners and losers, plus full recapIt's Monday, which Tony Snell Jersey can only mean one thing: I stayed up until 3 a.m. last night recording a podcast with Will Brinson and Ryan Wilson that touched on everything you need to know about Week 13, and let me just say, it's probably for the best that you listen. We covered all 13 games from Sunday, which means we likely spent some time talking about your favorite team. One thing we do every week is hand out our weekly winners and losers from Sunday's action. Here's a look at who made our list. Ryan WilsonWinner: Josh McDaniels. Three weeks ago, McDaniels' seat was so hot that it felt like he might spontaneously combust, but since then, things have cooled down considerably for the coach. McDaniels has his team on a three-game winning streak, and right now, they're playing their best football of the season.Loser: .Sunday marked the first time in 700 days that Watson had started a regular-season football game and he played like someone who hadn't seen Louis King Jersey the field in 700 days. Watson was rusty and erratic in his first game as the ' QB, and although Cleveland came away with a 27-14 win, it was no thanks to him.Will BrinsonWinner: Dan Campbell.Whatever Campbell's doing in Detroit, it seems to be working. The have won four of their past five games and Sunday's win might have been their most impre sive: They went out and destroyed the 40-14. It might be time to start taking this team seriously.Loser:Jeff Saturday.It turns out there is a downside to pulling someone off the street to coach your . The got embarra sed 54-19 by the on Sunday night and a big reason was because they got outscored 33-0 in the fourth quarter. That's the most points any team has ever been outscored by in a fourth quarter in NFL history. John BreechWinner: .Burrow must own stock in the Chiefs, because it's starting to feel like he owns them. For the third time in the 2022 calendar year, Burrow's Bengals were an underdog to Kansas City and for the third time in 2022, the Bengals pulled off the upset. Cincinnati's three wins all have one thing in common: Burrow outplayed Mahomes in each one. Burrow has been on a tear over the past four weeks and if he keeps playing like this, the Bengals seem like a serious threat to get back to the . Loser: Mike Vrabel and Jon Robinson.For some reason, the decided they would be better off without and Brown showed them why they were wrong. During the ' 35-10 win over Tenne see, Brown got some serious revenge on his old team by catch eight pa ses for 119 yards and two touchdowns.Not only did we list our winners and losers, but we also recapped every game from Sunday.

Week 13 grades: and both get a 'C' for tyingEvery week I team up with six of my colleagues here at CBSSports.com to hand out grades, and this week, we weren't sure what to do with the Commanders-Giants tie, so we just gave them both Josh Jackson Jersey a 'C.'Here's a look at the grades from two notable games that were played Sunday:Commanders 20-20 tie with N.Y Giants ()Commanders grade: C.Both teams tried to give this game away, but the other team wouldn't take it, which is why we ended up with a tie. Washington made two glaring errors to start the second half (a lost fumble that set up a Giants TD and a mi sed FG) and those errors put the Giants in control of the game. With New York leading 20-13 in the fourth quarter, the Commanders Christian Wood Jersey looked to be left for dead, but then engineered a game-tying TD drive in the final two minutes that included a fourth-and-4 conversion from his own 27. If the Commanders learned one thing from this game, it's that they should feel comfortable sticking with Heinicke for the rest of the season. Both of these teams played exactly average football, which is why they're both getting a 'C.'Giants grade: C.The Giants defense, which came up with five sacks and a turnover, played dominant football for the better part of three quarters before letting the Commanders drive 90 yards late in the fourth quarter to tie the game. Offensively, the Giants kept shooting themselves in the football with mistakes that ranged from a lost fumble from to a huge dropped pa s from late in the game. As I mentioned above with Washington's grade, both of these teams played exactly average football, which is why they're both getting a 'C.'Raiders 27-20 over ()Chargers grade: C-.If Brandon Staley wasn't yet on the hot seat, he might be after losing this game where the Chargers blew a 10-0 lead. Staley is a defensive-minded coach, so it definitely doesn't reflect well on him when two of the other team's biggest stars -- and -- absolutely torch his defense. Also Deividas Sirvydis Jersey , the Chargers had a nightmare second half that included a lost fumble, a mi sed field goal and a failed fourth down from the Raiders' 42-yard line with under three minutes left. It feels like the Chargers (6-6) have way too much talent to be a .500 team, but that's exactly what they are with just five games left in the season.Raiders grade: B+.The Raiders (5-7) had an ugly first quarter that included two punts, a lost fumble and a pick-six thrown by , but once they got all of that out of their system, they absolutely dominated the game. Josh Jacobs played the role of a human wrecking ball while steamrolling through the Chargers defense for 144 yards. Davante Adams was just as good, catching eight pa ses for 177 yards and two touchdowns. also finally had a breakout game with the Raiders as he racked up three of their five sacks. If the Raiders had been playing like this all season, they would be in the thick of the AFC pla
