Winners

Okay, so we've named the players who have fallen shy of expectations for Week 11. So it's only fair to pivot to the positive. And fans will be delighted to learn that this team has far more who deserve a round of applause than not. As is the case with any post-game list, we do not profess to have the definitive exhaustive list. But over the course of the games, these players stood out.

Sometimes their performance warranted identifying for a specific play. Sometimes it was due to a solid performance. But other players are called out because their performance was so good that they didn't get called out. How can that be? You'll know why as so as we turn to the first player on this list.

(9) - C Beaux Limmer

Rookie center Beaux Limmer makes the list because he returned to the starting line after just one week's absence. Fortunately for both the team and Limmer, he returned to form as an outstanding blocker for the team. And as the guy who calls the blocking scheme, he led the team to another no-sack performance.

It was the team's third no-sack performance, a feat that coincides with three of four wins since the Rams Week 6 BYE. It's pretty clear that to get an optimal performance on offense, the offensive line must protect QB Matthew Stafford. And for the past three games starting rookie center Beaux Limmer, that is exactly what the offensive line has done.
