The league's two highest-paid running backs --
Ezekiel Elliott and
Todd Gurley -- meet this weekend in Dallas, so you can expect each player to get his fair share of totes. In their only regular-season meeting (
Week 4 of 2017), Elliott and Gurley combined for 354 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns in a 35-30 win for the
Rams. With all eyes on these two playoff hopefuls Sunday afternoon, the backs repeat their previous performance to combine for 350 scrimmage yards and three TDs in a
Rams victory.
On the weekend the new Heisman Trophy winner is announced, previous winners
Baker Mayfield and
Kyler Murray summon their inner Oklahoma fireworks. The pair of Sooners combine to throw 10 touchdown passes in the most exciting game of Week 15.
Redskins rookie receiver
Terry McLaurin has been one of the best surprises of the 2019 season. The third-rounder turned heads the first time he stepped on the field in Week 1, when he hauled in five receptions for 125 yards against division-rival Philadelphia. Now, 14 weeks later, when those same
Eagles come to FedExField, McLaurin channels his NFL debut to record a new career-best performance. The rookie will torch the
Eagles secondary for 150 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
The
Texans and
Titans meet in a huge AFC South clash Sunday, and the quarterbacks, who both rank in the NFL's top 10 in most passing categories, must show out with first place riding on this game.
Deshaun Watson has been exceptional at times -- inserting himself into the MVP conversation at one point -- but the passer with the hottest hand in this one is
Ryan Tannehill. He's been great on passes of 20-plus air yards, throwing three TDs to zero picks with a 118.5 passer rating on deep attempts this season, per Next Gen Stats. On Sunday, he matches that production in one game.
