What an NFL game day!
Everyone’s talking regarding the biggest comeback in football history by the Minnesota Vikings. But also regarding a bad accident before the Atlanta Falcons game.
In addition to the Vikings, the Kansas City Chiefs are now qualified for the playoffs alongside the Buffalo Bills, the Philadelphia Eagles and the San Francisco 49ers.
Read the results and highlights from Gameday 15 in the NFL here.
New Orleans Saints — Atlanta Falcons 21:18
Excitement before the game: Dean Pees (73), the Falcons’ defensive coordinator, has to be wheeled out of the stadium before the game. What happened? Saints pro Rashid Shaheed crashed into him while warming up, hitting him in the head with his helmet following chasing a ball.
Pees is immediately treated by doctors following this collision at the 35-yard line. His neck is stabilized, then he is transported away. Officially, the team said he was “alert and responsive and was then transported to University Medical Center New Orleans for medical testing.”
Later in the evening the all-clear is given: Pees is discharged from the hospital.
Rashid Shaheed: “I was running backwards to catch a punt and kind of ran into him. I heard he’s okay. I am grateful for that. I am very sorry regarding what happened.”
Falcons-Headcoach Arthur Smith: “It was a scary moment before the game. We then called all the players together and prayed for him. We kept updating the players on how he was doing. Luckily Dean is fine.”
Double cheers: Juwan Johnson contributes two touchdowns to the Saints victory.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers — Cincinnati Bengals 23:34
Incomprehensible! Tom Brady and his Buccaneers lose a 17-0 lead. Tee Higgins, Tyler Boyd, Ja’marr Chase and Mitchell Wilcox are turning things around with their touchdowns.
Brady is Brady once more, sitting furiously on the touchline while his defense takes a bad beating. Eighth loss of the season for the Bucs…
Denver Broncos — Arizona Cardinals 24:15
A duel without two stars: Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray is out with a torn cruciate ligament, while Broncos playmaker Russell Wilson is sidelined with a concussion.
Brett Rypien runs for Wilson — and leads the Broncos to a deserved win!
Las Vegas Raiders — New England Patriots 30:24
And another catch up! The Patriots come back following a 3:17 lead and take a 24:17 lead. The preliminary decision? No!
In the hot final phase, the Raiders manage a touchdown by Keelan Cole 32 seconds before the end. However, following a minute-long investigation by the video referee, whether Cole was minimally out of bounds.
But the Raiders don’t want to risk anything, don’t do a two-point conversion, instead they equalize with an extra point.
And then this! The Patriots try trick play with backward passes. This is unique! And goes once in the pants! Chandler Jones win on the last play. The clock already says :00….
Los Angeles Chargers — Tennessee Titans 17:14
Shock at the beginning: Titans playmaker Ryan Tannehill is thrown to the ground and then crawls across the pitch. He then limps into the doctors’ tent for an examination. And then you see him being driven out of the stadium…
Irres Ding: Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert fires the ball into the end zone – but the egg is intercepted. And how! Roger McCreary slaps the leather to teammate Joshua Kalu as he jumps out of the field. A stroke of genius! Otherwise the interception would have been invalid.
Tannehill comes back — and even manages a rushing touchdown with 48 seconds to go.
The Chargers field Cameron Dicker. Dicker the Kicker! He hits from 43 yards. His third game winner in his rookie season.
Chicago Bears — Philadelphia Eagles 20:25
What a crazy run! Bears quarterback Justin Fields shrugs off an opponent, pulls off an incredible run — and blasts into the end zone at full throttle! Unfortunately no touchdown because his foot off the field was short.
Tough work for the Eagles, with quarterback Jalen Hurts hitting the touchdown three-pointer. Philadelphia clinches 13th win of the season.
Houston Texans — Kansas City Chiefs 24:30
Premiere: For the first time in his NFL career, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is playing in Texas as a native Texan. The last time he played in his home state was on November 25, 2016, when he threw for six touchdowns in his final game once morest Baylor for collegiate Texas Tech.
In his old home, Mahomes manages a touchdown run.
Crime 12 seconds before the end: Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker pulls from 51 yards — and misses! Craziness! Overtime instead of Chiefs victory!
With oh and noisy, the Chiefs make things clear in overtime and are in the playoffs thanks to Jerick McKinnon’s touchdown.
Jacksonville Jaguars — Dallas Cowboys 40:34
It’s catch-up game day! The Cowboys are already 27:10 before the Jaguars turn the thing around! Zay Jones scored three touchdowns once morest his dad Robert’s ex-team (3x Super Bowl Champion).
Five seconds left to play: The Jaguars make it within field goal range. Riley Patterson comes in from 48 yards — and slams the egg between the posts. 34:34 — Overtime!
Hammer: Rayshawn Jenkins crowns the Jaguars comeback with his touchdown to win – and with Cowboys possession! But quarterback Dak Prescott’s pass is intercepted and punished with a run into the end zone.
New York Jets — Detroit Lions 17:20
rusty? Jets quarterback Zach Wilson, back from his bench break because Mik White is injured, throws a high ball in the third quarter — into the opponent’s arms!
Wilson gets better and better in the final phase. But not enough to win!
The Jets can make it into overtime with a second to go with a field goal from 58 yards! But Greg Zuerlein shoots past!
Carolina Panthers — Pittsburgh Steelers 16:24
Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren and Mitchell Trubisky score touchdowns for the Steelers to secure the win.
