Todd Gurley II concludes Week 7 with an NFL-leading 206.6 PPR fantasy points. Only two players since 1950 scored more points through their team's first seven games of a season: Priest Holmes (238.3, 2002) and Marshall Faulk (224.2, 2000).
The Packers open as 8.5-point underdogs at the Rams. If that holds, it would be the largest spread of Aaron Rodgers' career.

Robby Anderson apologized for throwing the ball at an official late in the game, incurring an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty — and a possible fine. It's happened after a long incompletion in the end zone. "Just frustration," he said. "I hate losing. It wasn't anything intended for the ref." He didn't hit the official. Like most of the Jets' passes, it was off target.
The Washington Redskins now have a game-and-a-half lead in the NFC East after their 20-17 win over the Dallas Cowboys. Washington nearly blew a late 10-point lead, thanks to some questionable quarterback decisions and a defense that suddenly allowed too many yards. But the Redskins won for two reasons: Adrian Peterson (98 yards) and a defense that stopped Ezekiel Elliott (31 yards) and scored a touchdown in the fourth quarter. Ryan Kerrigan's quiet season was loud Sunday as his strip/sack fumble led to a Preston Smith one-yard touchdown. The Redskins will have to ride that run-game/defense formula to contend all season.

After missing his first field goal attempt of the season at Carolina, Brett Maher's 52-yard field goal attempt hits the left upright. Cowboys lose, 20-17. A snap infraction on snapper L.P. Ladouceur moved the attempt from 47 yards to 52. Maher had hit 16 in a row before the miss.
The 49ers were clearly overmatched in Sunday's 39-10 loss to the Los Angeles Rams but they didn't do themselves any favors by continuing to turn the ball over and not coming up with any takeaways of their own. The Niners are minus-14 in turnover margin over the past four weeks and were minus-4 on Sunday against the Rams. When you're already facing a talent deficit, that's simply too much to overcome. Now, the Niners head to Arizona at 1-6 with positioning in the 2019 NFL draft the only thing of real interest to watch.

The Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook lists the Seahawks as 2.5-point underdogs for Sunday's game at Detroit. The Lions got to 3-3 with a win over Miami. The Seahawks are 5-3 after their bye under Pete Carroll.

Ravens coach John Harbaugh on how Justin Tucker will handle the first missed extra point: "He'll handle it great. He's the best in the business. He'll be back winning games for us next week."
The Bucs do fear that it's a torn ACL for linebacker Kwon Alexander, according to a source. He'll undergo an MRI tomorrow to be sure.

Dak Prescott's 1-yard touchdown run with 1:37 to play means the Cowboys have scored two touchdowns in a road game for the first time this season. So there's good news.
Justin Tucker had never missed an extra point in his NFL career (222-222). 24-23 with 24 seconds left - his first… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Jets WR Jermaine Kearse (two targets, no catches) was clearly frustrated he didn't get more chances. Asked if the Vikings shaded coverage to him, he said, "Not that I noticed." Was he open at times? "I don't know how you want me to answer that," he said, smiling. "I mean, as a receiver, you always feel like you're open. I'll watch (the tape). I felt like there were some opportunities I had. It's just something that's out of control."
