Week 14 saw some great NFL offenses play some great games while other offenses such as the Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins were stunned at home and/ or on the road as more question marks appeared whether these certain teams can be Super Bowl caliber units or fall flat in the upcoming 2023 playoffs to more superior opponents.
Here are the grades for all 32 NFL Team offenses after week 14 games:
Arizona Cardinals: Bye Week (Last week C+)
Kyler Murray and the Cardinals’ offense need more effective wide receivers and the loss of DeAndre Hopkins from the 2023 offseason showed how impactful having a star wide receiver is for any NFL team. The Cardinals must secure a couple more wins if they want to finish the 2023 season on a high note or lose out and secure a strong draft pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Atlanta Falcons: C- (Last week C)
The Falcons’ offense had a good but heartbreaking 25-29 loss to their NFC South rivals, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

They must rebound and move on with only four weeks left in the regular season.

Kansas City Chiefs: C (Last week C)
The Chiefs’ offense did everything they could to try and beat the Buffalo Bills but ultimately fell short in a 17-20 loss due to Kadarius Toney being offsides on what would’ve been an incredible trick play from a Patrick Mahomes pass to Travis Kelce and then throwing it to Toney.

Rashee Rice caught seven receptions for 72 yards and scored a touchdown. The Chiefs’ offense was also without Isiah Pacheco due to a shoulder injury which hurt the rushing game.

Hockenson caught five receptions for 53 yards, and Justin Jefferson returned to action and caught two receptions for 27 yards before leaving the game early due to suffering another injury.

Bailey Zappe threw three touchdowns against one interception on the night while Ezekiel Elliot rushed for 68 yards on 22 carries, caught seven receptions for 72 yards, and scored a touchdown.

Randall Cobb caught one reception for 15 yards and scored a touchdown. The Jets’ offense needs to continue playing like this if they want to secure more wins and potentially be a playoff team. It isn’t likely, but they can still finish the season on a positive note and continue retooling the offense for Aaron Rodgers when he’s fully recovered from his Achilles injury.
Philadelphia Eagles: C- (Last week D+)
The Eagles’ offense headed to Dallas only looking for a win only to lose 13-33 and not score any offensive touchdowns all night.
