TIPSHEET

KNOW THIS

The site FiveThirtyEight.com evaluates every NFL game before it happens and gave six teams in Week 6 a 25 percent chance (or worse) to win on Sunday. Four of those six teams won, and a fifth (San Francisco) almost did.

WATCH THIS

You will have playoff baseball options from both leagues Tuesday. The only question is whether Game 4 of the ALCS between the Astros and Yankees (4 p.m., FS1) will be finished by the time Game 3 of the NLCS between the Dodgers and Cubs (8 p.m., TBS) begins.

"I am not sure you bring Teddy Bridgewater back this year, but if anything (Sunday) and the last two years have shown that too many decent QBs on a team is not a bad thing."
