Seeking their first playoff appearance since the 2016 season, the surging Miami Dolphins travel to Buffalo to battle their divisional rival, the Bills.
Week 17 takes us to Empower Field at Mile High in Denver to see the Denver Broncos take on the Las Vegas Raiders. Both the Raiders (7-8) and Broncos (5-10) are coming off last-minute losses in Week 16 at the hands of their opponent’s kicker.
Welcome to the post-Week 16 edition of triggering power rankings.
Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry is officially the first back to back rushing champion in the NFL since San Deigo Chargers’ Hall of Famer LaDainian Tomlinson did it in 2006 and 2007.
Aaron Rodgers is the NFL MVP. He may not be the overwhelmingly most talented quarterback in the league anymore, although on a given night Rodgers gives Patrick Mahomes a run for his money, Rodgers is clearly the most valuable player in the NFL.
On Monday, 2019 first-round pick Dwayne Haskins was placed on waivers after multiple issues on and off the field this season. Yesterday, Haskins went unclaimed and is free to sign with whatever team he wants. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, teams have already expressed interest in Haskins. With him out of the picture, what’s next for the Washington Football Team at the quarterback position?
Here are 10 Takeaways from the week that was Week 16 in the NFL, one that included its fair share of holiday miracles.
Monday Night Football in Week 16 featured a division game between the Buffalo Bills and New England Patriots. The Bills dominated from the start and cruised to a 38-9 victory. Cam Newton was benched early in the second half for Jarrett Stidham, putting his future with New England further in question.
In one of the late afternoon slots in week number 16, the Los Angeles Rams traveled to Seattle to battle the Seahawks in an all-important NFC West showdown. Backed by a stellar effort from their much-improved defense, Seattle captured their 5th NFC West title under head coach Pete Carroll in a 20-9 victory. Holding the high-powered Los Angeles passing attack to just 216 yards through the air, Ken Norton Jr’s group sacked quarterback Jared Goff three times while also stopping the team at their own one-yard line to set the tone for the win.
Aiming to end their three-game losing skid after beginning the season 11-0, the Pittsburgh Steelers played host to the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday afternoon.
The Washington Football Team has endured a lot over the last year. From the firing of Jay Gruden to the team hiring Ron Rivera to the name change, and the variety of different accusations over the last year, things haven’t been the best. Yet again, Washington is in the spotlight following the release of Dwayne Haskins on Monday.
Davante Adams and Aaron Rodgers are not just very good at football, but they are historically good at football. Rodgers and Adams have made a habit of setting at least one record a week, and Week 16 was no different in their 40-14 rout of the Titans.
