Here are five teams that should consider themselves on upset alert for NFL Week 13 during the 2018 season.
Last weekend, the Denver Broncos managed to pull off one of the biggest upsets to get back into the playoff discussion by knocking off the Pittsburgh Steelers, which also happened to be their second upset win in a row. As for what NFL Week 13 has in store, well let’s just say there will be a handful of candidates once again that should be worried about losing a surprise battle many expect them to win.
Right away, the Houston Texans come to mind when seeing how the AFC South leaders have worked their way into becoming one of the hottest teams in the NFL with eight wins in a row. On Sunday, the Texans will host the Cleveland Browns, a team that has started to play some impressive football over the last two weeks.
Only time will tell when it comes to seeing whether the Browns have what it takes to knock off a team like the Texans, but if they do, chances are Baker Mayfield will be the main reason as to why.
For a team that has desperately been looking for a quarterback to build the offense around, Cleveland seems to finally have found their man in Mayfield when looking at the impact he’s already made. As for which other teams are up there with the Texans when it comes to being on upset alert, well let’s jump right into the latest edition for Week 13.
