Buccaneers Edge Lions 20-16 in NFC Rematch

In the latest NFL action, the Denver Broncos faced a disappointing 13-6 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, with Pro Football Focus (PFF) grades highlighting the struggles of the offensive line and underwhelming performances from key players like PS2 and the defensive line. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers secured a narrow 20-16 victory over the Detroit Lions, despite missing starting right tackle Luke Goedeke and facing a strong performance from Lions' quarterback Jared Goff, who was criticized for his low PFF grade. The Indianapolis Colts received favorable grades for their offensive performance against the Green Bay Packers, particularly praising Alie-Cox's blocking and Alec Pierce's receiving. Meanwhile, the Lions' secondary faltered against Chris Godwin, leading to poor grades for their cornerbacks, including rookie Terrion Arnold. The Buffalo Bills' run defense continues to be a concern, allowing significant yardage in both of their first two games, with Ed Oliver and DaQuan Jones underperforming according to PFF metrics. Overall, teams are adjusting as they assess player performances and strategize for upcoming matchups.
