The booth on Titans beat Texans, 21-17
Elise Carter: "Houston had every chance to stay alive in this thing. Will Anderson Jr. was living in Tennessee's backfield with 3 sacks, but 38 total points tells you the Texans couldn't generate anything else—and that's how you lose a 4-point game you needed."
Devon Walker: "Tennessee's a 6-11 team that has no business winning close games—their SRS is -6.7, worst in this matchup—but Wan'Dale Robinson's 168 yards and 2 touchdowns gave them exactly what they needed when Houston couldn't finish despite Anderson's pressure."

Titans beat Texans, 21-17
Tennessee took this one 21-17 in a low-scoring affair where both teams stayed pass-happy, the Titans throwing on 64 percent of plays and Houston at 63 percent. Cam Ward went 17 for 36 for 296 yards and 2 touchdowns with 1 interception, while Wan'Dale Robinson had the game of his season with 4 catches for 168 yards and 2 scores. Will Anderson Jr. made himself felt from the Texans' end with 3 sacks, but it wasn't enough to stop Tennessee from outgaining Houston 363 total yards to 331. Both teams finished their seasons out of the playoffs—Houston at 7-10, Tennessee at 6-11.

Jaguars beat Texans, 31-27
Jaguars handled Texans 31-27. Trevor Lawrence was steady for Jaguars — 23/46, 309 yards, 3 TD. C.J. Stroud threw for Texans — 22/36, 271 yards, 2 TD — in a losing effort. Nico Collins has not had a better afternoon this season. Through the air: Jaguars 309, Texans 271.
💬 0 comments
Ravens run away with it, 45-20
25 points separated these two, and Ravens had all of them. Derrick Henry ran it for Ravens — 15 carries, 200 yards, 4 TD. Lamar Jackson did the damage for Ravens — 12/17, 278 yards, 2 TD, 1 INT. Antonio Gibson's high-water mark for the year. Total yards: Ravens 501, Texans 278.

Trading a player puts the part of his signing bonus that hasn't hit the cap yet on the cap of the team that sends him. The team that gets him takes on his salary, not the bonus. Traded during the season, one season's share of the bonus counts this season and the rest counts next season. Traded in the off-season, all of it counts against the cap right away. Figures are Madden's own penalty for each contract. Trades made in the game without the site aren't included.

Per OVR point is a division, not a verdict — a cap hit over an overall rating, nothing more. Whether a number is a problem depends on the position and the player, and that is your call rather than the site's.
There is no "cut him and save this much" here on purpose: a release in Madden carries dead money, and the export does not carry the figure — so that saving is not something this site can work out, and guessing at it would be guessing at the one number that decides whether the advice is any good.
