Cowboys 41, Bears 28
Tony Romo, of course, has been criticized over the years for his failures in December and January, but he wasn’t even given a chance to choke in this contest. The Cowboys ran what Jim Nantz (via Rex Ryan) called a “ground and pound” attack, as they ran way more than they passed. By the 3-minute mark of the first half, when Dallas went into a quick offense to score a touchdown prior to intermission, Romo attempted 11 throws compared to DeMarco Murray’s 16 carries. Murray had 46 of the 51 yards on the Cowboys’ initial touchdown drive, as he converted a pair of fourth-and-short opportunities.
Murray was successful on the ground, but he didn’t dominate in that regard despite what the final stats may say, as the Bears are surprisingly not inept versus ground attacks. In fact, Murray became the first running back to gain 100-plus rushing yards versus Chicago this season. The Bears had Murray limited to less than a four yards-per-carry average – 22 attempts, 83 rush yards – before this game got out of hand in the third quarter. Murray was able to boost his stats by breaking free for a few big gains late in the evening, which is why he was able to finish with 179 yards and a touchdown. He would’ve posted even better numbers had he not taken a strange loss of 14 yards in the final quarter.
Marshall, who had three catches for 61 yards, one of which was an impressive one-handed grab, was sorely missed, as the Bears’ offense sputtered until garbage time. With Alshon Jeffery hobbled with a hamstring injury – he was limping around despite the fact that he caught six balls for 95 yards and a touchdown – Jay Cutler had no one to throw to on most plays besides Martellus Bennett and Matt Forte.
Cutler finished 32-of-46 for 341 yards, three touchdowns (two passing, one rushing) and a late interception when he underthrew his receiver in the end zone. Most of his yardage came when Dallas essentially had this game in hand, as he just couldn’t get going without Marshall. As was the case last week, penalties and mistakes ruined Chicago drives. Matt Forte’s lost fumble at the beginning of the third quarter was especially painful. Down 14-7, the Bears got close to midfield, but Forte coughed the ball up, and the Cowboys returned it deep into Chicago’s territory. They scored a touchdown, increasing their lead to double digits.
Steelers 42, Bengals 21
Roethlisberger began slowly – the teams traded punts on numerous series – but he eventually caught fire, particularly in the second half. Roethlisberger finished 25-of-39 for 350 yards and three touchdowns. He was 11-of-16 for 207 yards and two scores after intermission, one of which was a 94-yard bomb to Martavis Bryant. Roethlisberger could’ve put even more points on the board had the officials correctly flagged the Bengals for pass interference in the end zone just prior to the break.
Bell, however, made up for the bad call by doing lots of damage in the passing game. He caught six passes for 50 receiving yards and a third touchdown. He, Bryant (4-109) and Miller secured Roethlisberger’s scores. Antonio Brown didn’t find the end zone, but reeled in nine of his 14 targets for 117 yards.
Dalton’s numbers look pretty – 21-of-29 for 302 yards and three touchdowns (two passing, one rushing), but the bulk of his yardage came on two long bombs to A.J. Green, who reeled in receptions of 56 and 81 yards. Dalton also missed some opportunities, failed to sustain drives, and even had an interception that was nullified by offsetting penalties that had nothing to do with the actual play. Dalton was hurt with a big drop though, as Mohamed Sanu let the ball slip through his hands on a big third down in the final quarter. Dalton took a big hit from rookie defensive lineman Stephon Tuitt on the play, but appeared to be OK. He was much better than he was last week, but he just didn’t do enough to keep pace with Roethlisberger.
Colts 25, Browns 24
Hoyer was woeful yet again. His numbers don’t even describe how awful he was, and he went 14-of-31 for 140 yards and two interceptions. Hoyer struggled to maintain drives, throwing errant passes on third down all afternoon. The crowd booed him quietly after the first incompletion, and the jeers grew louder as the game progressed. Both of his picks were poor throws. The first was forced into tight coverage in the end zone, while the second was an inaccurate pass during a failed comeback attempt, and it followed a dropped interception.
Hoyer didn’t get much help from Josh Gordon, who was highly inefficient. He caught just two of his seven targets for 15 yards and failed to reel in a deep bomb on the final drive that would’ve put the team in field goal range. Gordon did have to dive for the reception, but it seemed as though he could have gotten it. The Browns strangely didn’t use Gordon on many third downs, which was ridiculously stupid.
The pressure forced some mistakes from Luck. Following some incompletions on third down, Luck was guilty of a fumble amid a sack in the end zone. He was then pick-sixed on a pass he heaved with pressure in his face, and that was followed by another interception on a high throw that was tipped.
It seemed like the Colts didn’t have a chance, down 21-7 with no pass protection, but Luck came through in the end. On the game-winning drive, Luck found Donte Moncrief while standing in his own end zone, and then helped Dwayne Allen draw a pass interference. Despite Clete Blakeman’s crooked officiating – there was a terrible spot on a Dan Herron run following a review – Luck found T.Y. Hilton in the end zone.
Luck finished 24-of-53 for 294 yards, three touchdowns (two passing, one rushing), two interceptions and a lost fumble. It certainly wasn’t pretty – Luck was nearly picked on several other occasions – but he got the job done in the end despite extremely difficult conditions.
Lions 34, Buccaneers 17
Matthew Stafford had a fantastic outing. He misfired on just eight attempts, going 26-of-34 for 311 yards and three touchdowns. He was great in the pocket; on one instance, he avoided a couple of sacks and completed a pass for a decent gain. And, as the completion percentage indicates, he was highly accurate, particularly on passes to Calvin Johnson, whom the Buccaneers inexplicably single-covered on some occasions. Stafford did get lucky on one of his scores though, as a pass of his doinked off a helmet. An aware Joique Bell snatched the ball out of the air and ran into the end zone.
The Buccaneers were just so sloppy, and poor play from the offensive line didn’t help matters. The unit couldn’t block Ndamukong Suh, who tossed McCown around like a rag doll. He was flagged on one instance for an elbow to McCown’s helmet. There was also a botched snap from Evan Dietrich-Smith, which resulted in a fumble and a subsequent field goal.
Ravens 28, Dolphins 13
Meanwhile, the Ravens couldn’t do anything on offense. They began with multiple three-and-outs; they didn’t look sharp at all, as Miami got lots of pressure on Joe Flacco. The Ravens didn’t even achieve their initial first down until the beginning of the second quarter, and even then, they struggled, as Steve Smith dropped a touchdown, which was followed by a Joe Flacco interception when he threw the ball up for grabs in Smith’s direction.
Baltimore picked things up after that, however. Smith went nuts, as he perhaps had some motivation for revenge, given that he used to go against Brent Grimes twice per year when both players were in the NFC South. With Torrey Smith banged up – he didn’t do anything in this contest, aside from serving the role as a decoy – Steve Smith hauled in seven of a team-high 11 targets for 70 yards and a touchdown. His best catch came along the sideline when he impressively got both feet inbounds.
Flacco also had two key running plays. The first put the Ravens out of terrible field position and ultimately led to a touchdown prior to halftime. The second was really a sneak; he was able to successfully convert on a fourth-and-inches from his own 34 with 10 minutes remaining in the third quarter. Baltimore also turned that into points.
The Dolphins sputtered in the second half, registering just 125 net yards. Part of the reason for that was what John Harbaugh did. Harbaugh notified the officials that the Dolphins had players illegally downfield on some of their plays, and Miami was promptly whistled for that. It seemed to disrupt the Dolphins’ scoring attack – though Baltimore’s fierce pass rush was obviously responsible for that as well.
Vikings 26, Jets 20
Then again, both of the Jets’ receivers may have had motivation. Percy Harvin, in particular, wanted to get revenge because the Vikings traded him. Harvin, who tried for the first time in quite a while, taunted the crowd after some big gains, and he had quite a few. Harvin actually made a case to remain a Jet next season, catching six balls for 124 yards and a touchdown (the fans booed him heavily after the score) to go along with a big special-teams return. Then again, Harvin may not want to remain in New York, considering the quarterback situation. It’s not like Harvin will have another chance to disappoint this season; he sustained an ankle injury late in the contest, and he could be done for the year.
Bridgewater misfired on just eight passes, going 19-of-27 for 309 yards, two touchdowns and an interception, which was irrelevant because it was a Hail Mary attempt at the end of the first half. He continued to look for Charles Johnson, who had another big game, snatching four balls for 103 yards and a touchdown on a team-high eight targets. He did have a big blemish though, fumbling at the goal line.
Panthers 41, Saints 10
Newton’s mobility was the difference. He was banged up earlier in the year and couldn’t scramble as a consequence. He’s definitely 100 percent now, as he ran around early and often. He picked up 83 rushing yards and a touchdown on the ground on 12 rushing attempts. The hapless Saints had no answer for him, as Rob Ryan looked completely unprepared. It’s as if Ryan didn’t know that he would be battling a mobile quarterback.
Newton was also terrific as a passer, though that’s hardly a surprise considering how awful the Saints’ defense has been this year. Newton went 21-of-33 for 226 yards and four touchdowns (three passing, one rushing). He missed out on a couple of scores. Kelvin Benjamin dropped one, while Newton overthrew Jerricho Cotchery for another.
On Newton’s running touchdown, he leapt over the pile at the goal line and then proceeded to taunt Cameron Jordan. This sparked a big fight between the two teams in which one player was ejected for throwing punches. Official Walt Coleman, looking as clueless and senile as ever, whistled both teams for unsportsmanlike penalties, and he didn’t even bother to flag Newton, who started the whole thing. To steal a quip from Dan Patrick, it was the only fight the Saints showed all afternoon.
Giants 36, Titans 7
I’m not going to spend much time on this worthless game. Some notes and stats:
– Manning went 26-of-42 for 260 yards, one touchdown and that interception. Manning missed Kelvin Ogletree and Odell Beckham for potential scores, but was able to look competent otherwise against the NFL’s worst defense, as the Titans couldn’t cover anyone.
– Tennessee didn’t have a prayer against Beckham, who reeled in 11 catches for 130 yards and a touchdown. Beckham nearly had a long score, but Manning missed him. He also attempted a long pass of his own, but he couldn’t connect with Rueben Randle.
– Rashad Jennings was very limited, as predicted. He gained just five yards on two carries, and he was gimpy after touching the ball for the first time. Andre Williams handled most of the workload and was stymied until he broke free for a 50-yard touchdown in the second half on a third-and-1 play. He finished with 131 yards on 24 attempts.
– As for the Titans, Zach Mettenberger is done for the season with a shoulder injury that he sustained in the fourth quarter. Mettenberger went 14-of-24 for 125 yards an interception and a lost fumble returned for a touchdown, and even those numbers were inflated because he was just 10-of-14 for only 63 yards by the time this game was 30-0. Mettenberger also had a second pick, which was brought back for six, nullified by a penalty. Jake Locker managed to go 9-of-11 for 81 yards and an interception in relief.
– The Titans couldn’t establish the run because they were way behind early. Bishop Sankey wasn’t finding much room anyway, as he mustered just 25 yards on nine attempts. Shonn Greene was a healthy scratch.
– With Kendall Wright and Justin Hunter out, the Titans’ leading receivers were Derek Hagan (6-62) and Nate Washington (3-56). Like I said, worthless.
Rams 24, Redskins 0
The Redskins did not look prepared to play this game. They were discombobulated on both sides of the ball. Colt McCoy was terrible, and the offense as a whole averaged just 3.7 yards per play. Washington would’ve been limited to fewer than 200 net yards had Robert Griffin not entered the game and generated some garbage yardage at the very end.
The defense, meanwhile, was just as bad. The Rams moved the chains with ease, and they would’ve scored way more than 24 points had they not killed themselves with mistakes. They took a pair of 10-yard penalties on one early drive to put themselves out of kicking range, and then the once-promising Greg Zuerlein whiffed from 28 and 38 yards. He eventually converted from 34, though at first glance, it appeared as though the field goal would miss.
Washington also screwed up on special teams, making this a complete loss. The team stupidly tried a fake punt in their own territory when this game was still close. The decision was curious, given that the Redskins were attempting this against a team that practices fake punts so frequently. The Rams seemed to troll Washington with a fake extra-point try later on (not the first time they trolled; more on that later). They also scored on a Tavon Austin punt return.
Texans 27, Jaguars 13
By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell
The Jaguars responded with a three-point drive that was spurred by Toby Gerhart (5-19) running a first first down on a third-and-8 and a good gainer to tight end Marcedes Lewis (3-69). Clay Harbor dropped a long reception downfield, but landed a penalty via a late hit from D.J. Swearninger. On the Jaguars’ next drive, Marqise Lee (5-67) made a great leaping catch over A.J. Bouye for 31 yards. A screen to Gerhart moved the ball inside Houston’s 30, but Watt batted a pass on a third down to force a field goal.
The Texans marched down the field during the third quarter with some great play calls by Bill O’Brien. To close out the drive, Alfred Blue (9-15) plunged into the end zone. Bortles promptly made a terrible decision on an interception to Swearinger to set up the Texans at Jacksonville’s 26. A 25-yard pass to tight end Ryan Griffin went to the 1-yard line. On fourth-and-goal from the 1, Foster made a great run after getting bounced back that saw him maintain his balance and dart to the outside for the score. After a three-and-out by the Jaguars, the Texans drove for a field goal to ice the game.
Raiders 24, 49ers 13
By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell
The 49ers took the lead with a drive that got started by a 23-yard pass to Vernon Davis (2-26). Frank Gore (12-63) put together a couple of good runs, and the drive ended with an 8-yard scoring pass to fullback Bruce Miller. Carr responded with an impressive drive led by Latavius Murray (23-76) running for 15 yards, Vincent Brown catching a 20-yarder, and Mychal Rivera catching a 19-yard pass. On third-and-goal, Oakland went to a tackle-eligible play with a touchdown pass to Donald Penn. It was actually a nice catch by Penn, as the big lineman went low to make the reception.
Late before the half, the 49ers got going with two passes to Anquan Boldin (4-54) for 36 yards. Kaepernick ran for 16 yards to set up a 52-yard field goal from Phil Dawson to tie the score at 10 entering the half.
The 49ers put together a drive in the third quarter, but couldn’t get a touchdown on a goal-to-go and had to settle for a field goal. Carr answered as he got red hot and carved up the San Francisco defense. He hit Andre Holmes (2-38) for 16 and Rivera for 27 yards. On third-and-1, Carr drilled Marcel Reese (7-64) for a 9-yard touchdown. After getting the ball back, Carr continued to be red hot as he ripped the ball through the 49ers’ secondary, mainly using Reese and Rivera. Carr made another clutch throw on third and goal with a laser to Rivera, who caught the ball over a defensive back to put Oakland up 24-13.
Kaepernick moved the ball into field goal range before Antonio Smith sacked him on a third down to end the drive before Phil Dawson missed the 47-yard attempt. After getting the ball back, Khalil Mack sacked Kaepernick and the 49ers’ comeback hopes ended with a terribly thrown interception right to Charles Woodson.
Cardinals 17, Chiefs 14
There was controversy late, however. Travis Kelce caught a pass to enter the red zone, but the ball popped out at the very end. It appeared as though it just harmlessly slipped out after he hit the ground, but Bruce Arians threw the challenge flag. It seemed as though there was a chance that the ball was lodged out before he was down by contact, but not enough to overturn the call. However, the officials overturned it, giving the Cardinals the ball. Arizona didn’t score off the possession, but it was able to eat enough clock to ruin Kansas City’s chances.
That was one thing that did in the Chiefs, who are reeling themselves at 7-6. The other was their putrid run defense. C.J. Anderson trampled them last Sunday night, and someone named Kerwynn Williams picked up where he left off, gaining 100 yards on 19 carries. Kansas City has the worst ground defense in the NFL, but no one could’ve expected that some unknown player would hit the century mark against them. It’s clear that the Chiefs sorely miss Derrick Johnson and Eric Berry.
In the end, Stanton completed just half of his attempts, going 15-of-30 for 239 yards and that touchdown. He also fumbled the ball, but was lucky one of his teammates recovered. Stanton, who will need to play better on the road if the Cardinals want to wrap up homefield advantage, should have led the Cardinals to more points, but kicker Chandler Catanzaro missed two chip-shot field goals.
Smith finished 26-of-39 for 293 yards, one touchdown and an interception that was thrown right to Alex Okafor. He also scrambled four times for 26 rushing yards. It appeared as though Smith had a second score to Anthony Fasano, but the officials ruled that Fasano pushed off even though it was a bogus call. Smith is a good game manager, but he doesn’t have the arm or the weapons around him to advance deep into the playoffs.
Broncos 24, Bills 17
The bad news for the Broncos – besides New England prevailing – is that Peyton Manning hasn’t played well in the past six quarters. He was just 4-of-14 for 43 yards in the second half of the Kansas City game. He had a higher completion percentage in this contest – 14-of-20 – but was responsible for two interceptions. Both picks were poorly thrown balls. The first fluttered, allowing Corey Graham to snatch a nice-looking interception. The second was another weak-armed floater. No one’s saying anything about it in the media because they’re afraid to offend Lord Peyton – Michael Irvin even admitted that he was hesitant – but his arm seems to be sapped. Denver had an early bye – back in Week 4 – so it’s possible that Manning could just be fatigued.
Manning ultimately generated 173 yards. He was battling a tough defense and tried to get rid of the ball as quickly as a consequence, but that doesn’t excuse the weak throws.
Meanwhile, Wes Welker led the Broncos in receiving, hauling in all six of his targets for 82 yards. With Manning releasing the ball as quickly as possible, it’s not a complete surprise that Welker just had one of his better games. On the other end of the spectrum, Julius Thomas was active, but didn’t play at all, royally screwing over any fantasy owners who started him this week in the wake of the news that he would be active.
Orton was terrible, by the way. The numbers say otherwise – 38-of-57, 355 yards, one touchdown, two interceptions – but almost all of his yardage came in garbage time. In fact, he had just 80 yards on 18 attempts by halftime. The Broncos had him completely stymied, and his picks were both terrible, especially the one heaved right to linebacker Brandon Marshall. Orton also was guilty of a pick-six, but the pass was so bad that it hit the ground in front of the Denver player. It wasn’t all Orton’s fault, however, as the Broncos put some heavy pressure on him.
Seahawks 24, Eagles 14
What’s scary is that the Seahawks are doing this as visitors. They’re so much more dominant at home, and they’ll be playing as hosts throughout the playoffs if they win out and the Packers trip up once.
Wilson, who went 22-of-37 for 263 yards and three touchdowns (two passing, one rushing) to go along with 48 rushing yards on 10 scrambles, did a great job of keeping drives alive. The Seahawks held the ball for 42 minutes and never gave the Eagles a chance to get going. Their only offensive mistakes were two sacks that took them out of a field goal range on a pair of separate drives, and a lost fumble from Marshawn Lynch. Wilson also nearly threw a pick-six very late, but Seattle still would have led by three.
Matthews, meanwhile, was limited to just two grabs for 23 yards. Zach Ertz (2-39) led the team in receiving. He caught Mark Sanchez’s other touchdown.
Patriots 23, Chargers 14
Tom Brady wasn’t at his sharpest early on. He converted a third-and-long from his own end zone, but stalled on several occasions deep in San Diego territory. Brady took a sack inside the 5-yard line and then had an interception heaved to Manti Te’o just prior to halftime and a poor underthrow. His only score in the first half was a touchdown to Rob Gronkowski after Mike Scifres’ punt was blocked.
Brady, however, was unstoppable following intermission, going 14-of-19 for 146 yards and a touchdown. He did have help from Julian Edelman, however, who broke out of a tackle to score from 69 yards out. It helped Brady that the Chargers struggled to punt, as Scifres was knocked out of the game as a result of that block. Bill Belichick brilliantly had two punt returners on the field, just in case Scifres’ replacement hit a bad boot, which proved to be the case on several occasions.
Another issue was New England’s secondary, which completely put the clamps on Keenan Allen. Darrelle Revis shut him down, as Rivers barely threw the ball in his direction. Allen was targeted just thrice. He caught two balls for only three yards.
Rivers, as a consequence, went 20-of-33 for 189 yards, one touchdown and an interception. He had a second pick, which was returned for six after Ladarius Green bobbled the ball, which popped into the air, but the turnover was negated by a bogus penalty that was called helmet-to-helmet when Brandon Browner really went shoulder to chest. It ultimately didn’t matter, as Rivers was picked on the very same drive.
Packers 43, Falcons 37
Prior to taking on Tom Brady, here are the quarterbacks they battled since R-E-L-A-X: Teddy Bridgewater, Mark Sanchez, Jay Cutler, Drew Brees (who torched them), an injured Cam Newton, Ryan Tannehill, Christian Ponder, Jay Cutler. Not exactly the group that will be playing in the Pro Bowl. Brady (on a neutral field), Russell Wilson, Peyton Manning (assuming he’s healthy), Andrew Luck, Ben Roethlisberger, and even Philip Rivers and Joe Flacco would throw all over this secondary unless it makes major improvements in the near future.
There was some complacency in the second half, however. Rodgers wasn’t nearly as sharp as he was prior to intermission, completing just 6-of-11 attempts. He missed an open Jordy Nelson for a touchdown (he connected with him, but Nelson had to dive for an inaccurate ball). His teammates seemed to be out of sync as well, as Eddie Lacy dropped a pass, while the special teams didn’t have enough players on the field for a punt. As a result, the Packers nearly squandered their 31-7 lead. The Falcons scored four touchdowns and a field goal in the second half, ultimately covering the spread.
