Week 14
Week 14 is over and we only have 2 weeks remaining in the regular season. There are 3 wildcard spots still up for grabs in the AFC, but in the NFC there is not only 3 wildcard spots up for grabs, but also the NFC East Division has not been decided yet. These next two weeks are going to be very crucial for any team that is still within reach of a playoff birth. That will have to wait as we are going to dive into week 14's week.

Detailed Recap:

The top story for this week has to go to the Pittsburgh Steelers and Houston Oilers game. The Steelers put together an amazing comeback to tie and send the game into overtime. Pittsburgh then put the final nail in the AFC Central coffin as they scored a touchdown to not only win the game, 41 to 35, but to also clinch the AFC Central Division Title.

Next we have what I would consider an upset as the New England Patriots went into Dallas to play the Cowboys, but came up a little short. The Dallas Cowboys were able to inch a little further away from the Eagles in the NFC East division with a win over New England, 26 to 17.

It wouldn't be a detailed recap without an update for the undefeated Los Angeles Rams. The Rams went into New York to play the Giants and they are walking out 14-0 as Los Angeles was able to win their 14th straight game, but it was by a small margin. The Giants were able to put pressure on the Rams but fell victim to their potent offense as the lost 31 to 28.

We had another close upset this week when the Buffalo Bills came to town to play the Kansas City Chiefs. A slam dunk, guaranteed win for the Chiefs right? Not so much. Even though Kansas City was still able to walk away with a "W", it was a much closer game than anyone could've expected. The Kansas City Chiefs were only able to beat the Buffalo Bills by 2 points with a final score of 22 to 20.

We only have 2 weeks left in the regular season and I hope you comeback to read those recaps and join me with the start of the post season. I will be posting a Playoff schedule, if you will, on week 16's post so you will all know when each round of the playoffs will be played & posted.

Thank you so much for reading this far, have a great day and I'll see you here on Friday.
