Buffalo Bills-3
Atlanta Falcons-31
In a game with absolutely no playoff implications, the Falcons throttled the Bills in the Georgia Dome. Brian Brohm faired about as well as Ryan Fitzpatrick and Trent Edwards did all year. Terrell Owens became only the 6th receiver in NFL history with 1,000 receptions.
Kansas City Chiefs-10
Cincinnati Bengals-17
The Bengals sealed up their playoff spot with a victory at home against the Chiefs. Larry Johnson faced his old team, but it was Cedric Benson who rushed for over 100 yards for the 6th time this year. Carson Palmer threw a TD to Ocho Cinco late in the game to seal the win.
Oakland Raiders-9
Cleveland Browns-23
In the Charlie Frye Bowl, his former team got the best of his current team in a battle of irrelevant teams. The highlight of the game was a 61-yard field goal by Sebastian Janikowski, good for 4th-longest all time.
Seattle Seahawks-10
Green Bay Packers-48
The Packers abused the Seahawks in every facet of the game. Matt Hasselbeck threw 4 INTs for the second straight game. Aaron Rodgers became the first QB in NFL history to throw for over 4,000 yards in his first two seasons as a starter.
Houston Texans-27
Miami Dolphins-20
The Texans moved to 8-7 and kept their playoff hopes alive with a victory in Miami. "The U" alum Andre Johnson scored a TD and the Texans held on to win despite a late rally from the Fins.
Jacksonville Jaguars-7
New England Patriots-35
Thanks to 3 Randy Moss TDs, and a flawless QB performance (how it wasn't a perfect QB rating is beyond me) from Tom Brady, the Pats steamrolled the Jags. Fred Taylor squared off against his old squad for the first time and the Pats wrapped up the AFC East with the win.
Tampa Bay Bucs-20
New Orleans Saints-17 (OT)
In the biggest upset of the day, the Bucs got their third win of the season in the Superdome. The Saints dropped their second straight game after starting off the season 13-0. Cadillac Williams rushed for 129 yards and a TD and Connor Barth hit the game-winning field goal in OT to give the Bucs fans something to cheer about.
Carolina Panthers-41
New York Giants-9
Big Blue closed out Giants Stadium with a dud of epic proportions. The Giants were harassed all day and they were never able to get back into the game. Steve Smith (Panthers=the real one), broke his arm and scored a TD on the same play...unbelievable.
Baltimore Ravens-20
Pittsburgh Steelers-23
The Steelers avenged their loss to the Ravens early in the season with a W today at Heinz Field. The Ravens have themselves to thank for the loss due to multiple penalties in key situations and a ridiculous drop of a touchdown from normally reliable Derrick Mason.
St. Louis Rams-10
Arizona Cardinals-31
The Cardinals were all over the Rams with Kurt Warner slinging it all over the field. The Cardinals already had the NFC West wrapped up and the Rams can't wait for the offseason to start. Kurt Warner threw for 313 yards and 2 TDs against his old team.
Detroit Lions-6
San Francisco 49ers-20
The Niners took down the Lions at home. The Lions are joining the Rams on vacation, but then again I don't think either team came back from last offseason's vacation. Frank Gore surpassed the 1,000 rushing yard plateau in the game.
New York Jets-29
Indianapolis Colts-15
The Colts opted not to go for the perfect season and instead rest their starters in the second half, which resulted in their first loss of the season to the Jets who are still very alive in the AFC playoff picture. Rookie Curtis Painter came in relief and was hardly Peyton Manning.
Denver Broncos-27
Philadelphia Eagles-30
In Brian Dawkin's return to Philadelphia, the Eagles held on thanks to a last second field goal from David Akers. The Eagles squandered a 17 point lead in the third quarter but Donovan McNabb led a game-winning drive in the final minutes to set up the field goal thanks to an amazing catch by Jeremy Maclin.
Dallas Cowboys-17
Washington Redskins-0
Dallas shut out Washington tonight, another team who has officially mailed in the rest of the season. This sets up a great last game against the Eagles where the winner gets the NFC East crown.
