2016 NFL Week 14 Recap

FOXBORO, MA - DECEMBER 12:  Tom Brady #12 of the New England Patriots throws a pass as he is pressured by Terrell Suggs #55 of the Baltimore Ravens during the first half of their game at Gillette Stadium on December 12, 2016 in Foxboro, Massachusetts.  (Photo by Adam Glanzman/Getty Images)
Ravens 23
Patriots 30 For the first time in three years, New England turned the ball over three times in the first three quarters (including back-to-back turnovers for the first time in five years) but Tom Brady still managed to win his 100th career home game by shredding the league’s #1 defense for 406 yards and 3 TDs. Maybe now Terrell Suggs will say his name. (Photo by Adam Glanzman/Getty Images)
PHILADELPHIA, PA - DECEMBER 11: DeSean Jackson #11 of the Washington Redskins runs past Leodis McKelvin #21 of the Philadelphia Eagles to score a touchdown in the third quarter at Lincoln Financial Field on December 11, 2016 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Redskins defeated the Eagles 27-22. (Photo by Mitchell Leff/Getty Images)
Redskins 27
Eagles 22 If Philly’s effort was in question before, it should be under indictment now: DeSean Jackson cooked his former team’s defense for an 80-yard TD — his 18th career score of 60-plus yards, third most in NFL history — and the Eagle offense committed two red-zone turnovers in Philadelphia’s fifth straight loss to the Redskins. This team really isn’t any good. (Photo by Mitchell Leff/Getty Images)

Cowboys 7
Giants 10 New York isn’t just the lone team to beat Dallas this season, they made the Cowboys look pedestrian: Dez Bryant’s lone catch ended in a fourth quarter fumble and Dak Prescott had his worst NFL game (two of the Cowboys’ season-high three turnovers). Now that Big Blue is 4-1 this season in games decided by three points or less (they were 1-5 in such games last year), the Giants look poised for another title run. (AP Photo/Seth Wenig)
ORCHARD PARK, NY - DECEMBER 11:  Le'Veon Bell #26 of the Pittsburgh Steelers jumps over  Ronald Darby #28 of the Buffalo Bills during the second half at New Era Field on December 11, 2016 in Orchard Park, New York.  (Photo by Brett Carlsen/Getty Images)
Steelers 27
Bills 20 Pittsburgh has enjoyed some all-time great coaches and running backs, yet none of them has matched Mike Tomlin’s 100 wins in his first 10 seasons or Le’Veon Bell’s 236 yard performance. That’s hard to believe. It’s also hard to believe that with all the years of futility in Buffalo, Bell single-handedly outgaining the entire Bills offense 298-275 would be the last straw in the Rex Ryan era. Buffalo losing five of seven games is way more believable than their 4-2 start. (Photo by Brett Carlsen/Getty Images)

Broncos 10
Titans 13 Denver was out-rushed 180-18 and fell to 0-3 when they don’t force a turnover. Maybe QB isn’t the Broncos’ biggest problem after all … (Photo by Wesley Hitt/Getty Images)

INDIANAPOLIS, IN - DECEMBER 11:  Quarterback Andrew Luck #12 of the Indianapolis Colts is hit by Christian Covington #95 of the Houston Texans during the game at Lucas Oil Stadium on December 11, 2016 in Indianapolis, Indiana.  (Photo by Andy Lyons/Getty Images)
Texans 22
Colts 17 While Houston continues to wait for that long-promised explosion, their defense propelled them to their first-ever season sweep of the hated Colts and a team-record ninth straight division win to stay tied with Tennessee for the AFC South lead. It’s starting to look like the Titans/Texans tilt in Week 17 will be for the division crown. (Photo by Andy Lyons/Getty Images)
DETROIT, MI - DECEMBER 11: Quarterback Matthew Stafford #9 of the Detroit Lions scrambles for a touchdown against the Chicago Bears during fourth quarter action  at Ford Field on December 11, 2016 in Detroit, Michigan. (Photo by Leon Halip/Getty Images)
Bears 17
Lions 20 Even with an injured digit, Matthew Stafford directed Detroit to their NFL-record eighth win this season after trailing in the fourth quarter. I think it’s safe to say John Fox doesn’t like Cooter quite so much anymore. (Photo by Leon Halip/Getty Images)
JACKSONVILLE, FL - DECEMBER 11:   T.J. Yeldon #24 of the Jacksonville Jaguars gets airborne on a tackle by Terence Newman #23 of the Minnesota Vikings during the game at EverBank Field on December 11, 2016 in Jacksonville, Florida.  (Photo by Sam Greenwood/Getty Images)
Vikings 25
Jaguars 16 Jacksonville has more wins in London (1) than at EverBank Field (0-6). This might be the most compelling case yet to move the Jaguars across the pond. (Photo by Sam Greenwood/Getty Images)
SANTA CLARA, CA - DECEMBER 11:  Bilal Powell #29 of the New York Jets rushes for a 19-yard touchdown to beat the San Francisco 49ers in overtime in their NFL game at Levi's Stadium on December 11, 2016 in Santa Clara, California.  (Photo by Thearon W. Henderson/Getty Images)
Jets 23
49ers 17 (OT) Giving up 23 points to the Jets is bad enough. Giving up 23 straight points to the Jets to blow a two-touchdown lead at home is a fireable offense. San Fran might have a second straight one-and-done coach. (Photo by Thearon W. Henderson/Getty Images)
TAMPA, FL - DECEMBER 11:  Cornerback Brent Grimes #24 of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is stopped by wide receiver Brandon Coleman #16 of the New Orleans Saints after intercepting a pass by quarterback Drew Brees during the fourth quarter of an NFL game on December 11, 2016 at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida. (Photo by Brian Blanco/Getty Images)
Saints 11
Bucs 16 For the first time in NFL history, three former Super Bowl winning QBs (Drew Brees, Ben Roethlisberger and Russell Wilson) threw 3 INTs in a game in the same day. If Tampa’s defense keeps this up, Mike Smith is a month away from being a head coach again. (Photo by Brian Blanco/Getty Images)

Seahawks 10
Packers 38 OK, let me get this straight … Green Bay was soundly beaten by a Redskins team that can’t win in prime time, but completely “blowed out” Seattle by making Russell Wilson look like Ryan Fitzpatrick? If the NFC’s best hope to beat Dallas played in this game, perhaps it’s not the team we thought going in. (Photo by Dylan Buell/Getty Images)
KANSAS CITY, MO - DECEMBER 8: Wide receiver Tyreek Hill #10 of the Kansas City Chiefs breaks beyond the Oakland Raiders last line of defense en route to a punt return touchdown at Arrowhead Stadium during the second quarter of the game on December 8, 2016 in Kansas City, Missouri.

Raiders 13
Chiefs 21 Regardless of where you stand on the polarizing story of Tyreek Hill, this much is certain: Kansas City has their most electric player since Dante Hall was labeled “The Human Joystick.” (Photo by Peter Aiken/Getty Images)
