Week 11 Social Recap: Parity Reigns Supreme
Every week during the NFL season, the 33rd Team will present some of the most interesting Tweets that come across our timeline during Sunday’s action. Here’s the Week 11 rundown:
I have been trying to quantify individual injuries impact on team level performance. The below graph plots two metrics.
— PFF's WAR generated by a team per game so far in the 2021 season.
— Current injured players WAR lost over that player's previous 15 games played. pic.twitter.com/7qXjvHUZRZ— Benjamin Brown (@Ben_R_Brown_) November 20, 2021
Is anyone in the NFL a top contender? Week to week, it seems as if we have no idea.
There are no good teams, I love it

Cam Newton is back in Carolina and feeling good!
This is the healthiest Cam has been in years right? He looks fast as hell 🚀🚀🚀🚀

Don’t look now but if the Bills can’t mount a 17-point second-half comeback at home against the Colts, your AFC East leader through 11 weeks would be…the @Patriots
— Rich Eisen (@richeisen) November 21, 2021
How did we get here? The Patriots are already back on top in the AFC East.
Watching Josh Allen and Carson Wentz playing in the same game feels like witnessing a comet event. I’m holding my breath on every dropback and I can feel my heartbeat in my eyeballs. Please consider this a do not resuscitate order.

Jonathan Taylor is an absolute monster of a running back.
Johnathan Taylor and Hall of Famer LaDainian Tomlinson: that’s the entire list of players with 8 straight games of 100 scrimmage yards and a rushing touchdown.

bills finding out pretty quickly that having a good defense sometimes just means you’re playing bad offenses

Are the Buffalo Bills actually pretenders?

Justin Jefferson had 8 catches for 169 and 2 TDs today. Jalen Reagor, the guy the Eagles took instead of Jefferson, had one catch for -1 yards. Just sayin'.
— Paul Domowitch (@pdomo) November 21, 2021
Eagles fans will never hear the end of the Reagor-Jefferson dabacle.
Imagine if I told you in August, the #Ravens would win a game at Chicago without Lamar Jackson, Hollywood Brown, JK Dobbins, Gus Edwards, Marcus Peters, Ronnie Stanley, Anthony Averett, Jimmy Smith, Pernell McPhee, Derek Wolfe, Brandon Williams.

Deebo Samuel had more rush yards over expectation (+49) on 8 carries than Jonathan Taylor (+47) on 32 carries today, per NFL Next Gen Stats.
— Seth Walder (@SethWalder) November 21, 2021
Is Deebo Samuel one of the most dangerous running backs in the NFL?
Micah Parsons is INEVITABLE

The Eagles have a very legitimate shot at getting into the NFC Playoff picture.
Justin Herbert generated a career-high +25.8 total EPA, the 3rd-most by a QB in a game this season.
Herbert gained 93 rushing yards on scrambles, tied for the 2nd-most in a game since 2016.
Justin Herbert (Week 11)
🔹 Pass EPA: +16.5
🔹 Rush EPA: +9.3#PITvsLAC | #BoltUp pic.twitter.com/XwnLZvpS7q— Next Gen Stats (@NextGenStats) November 22, 2021
