A coast-to-coast identity check collides with Week 12 stakes: Jets pivot to Tyrod, Giants chase growth amid discipline drama, heavyweight NFL matchups sharpen truths, the Knicks rediscover their closer, the Mavs unravel, and MLB owners show their colors with fresh TV money.

We break down what’s real, what’s noise, and where the betting and fantasy edges hide before rolling our picks for the weekend.

• Giants’ late-game flaws and Abdul Carter accountability
• Jets bench Fields, steadying with Tyrod for short-term respect
• Week 11 statement games reshape Chiefs, Broncos, Bills tiers
• Week 12 mirrors: Steelers–Bears, Colts–Chiefs, Eagles–Cowboys
• Fantasy start/sit calls and panic meter resets
• Rolling The Dice With Rice: sides, totals, and locals
• Knicks’ Brunson effect and Dallas identity crisis
• MLB hot stove, Naylor deal, closer market, and owner spend
