By The Pigskin Of Our Teeth, Week 12: Clipped Turkeys


We kind of are, in a way. Texans' first drive starts off promising but ends in a sack and a punt, their 10th on their last 11 opening drives. Stafford IS playing. He finds Hockenson wide open after a modified flea-flicker. 51 yards! And apparently Marvin Jones was also open on the other side. That's interference. Adrian Peterson gets into the end zone on his second try. For a guy who should be ring chasing at this point in his career, he's had a hell of a time landing on a contender. Watson scrambles for a first down. Neither team can run the ball this season. Texans punt again. PICK-SIX FOR J.J. WATT! He knocks down a pass, catches it, and runs into the end zone! Then the Lions fumble on the first snap of the next drive.


Texans recover at the Lions' 30. Pass to Duke Johnson gets 14. C.J. Prosise lives! And he just scored a touchdown off of play-action. 13-7 Texans. Hockenson picks that pass up off the turf (almost) and gets to midfield. Texans think this is another fumble. It sounds like the booth called for that review before the Texans could challenge it. It IS a fumble and Texans ball. Three giveaways in the last eight snaps. Go Lions.


Now Prosise fumbles and the Lions get it right back!


The second quarter just started. One more touchdown pass and Stafford ties Romo's Thanksgiving Day record of 18. Peterson to the 2. And he's in again.


Touchdown pass to Fuller is called back because of holding. On the next play, Watson finds Duke Johnson on a similar route and he's in for a touchdown. And now he's out and down the tunnel. Bo Jackson reference. 20-14 Texans. Stafford wears No. 9 in Detroit because 7 has long been retired. Fuller runs free across midfield. Cooks makes a 27-yard catch on second and 24. Penalties killing this drive for the Texans. They settle for a field goal. Big run by Kerryon Johnson but the drive dies. Halftime! Is there a concert? I haven't heard. I guess not? I know Kane Brown is playing the Cowboys game. Wait, there was a defense out there with fewer takeaways than the Eagles? DETROIT SPECIAL? That's incomplete. Lions challenge and lose. Field goal is good. Fuller gets open at the Lions 30 and takes the catch to the 20. Lot of dodging on this Watson to Coutee pass. Third and goal pass goes off Akins' fingers. Field goal is good. The Lions lost the first Thanksgiving game, 19-16 to the Bears, because of course they did. Justin Reid picks off Stafford off the deflection! Or does he? They call it incomplete (correctly) as he dropped it. Lions punt. Cooks with back-to-back catches. Fuller beats his man and Watson drops it into this hands for the score. OPI takes away a big Lions play. They get 10 of the 11 yards back, but fail to convert on 4th and 1 from their own 34.


Touchdown Texans! This time they ran the same flea-flicker variant the Lions ran in the first quarter, and Fuller didn't even have a man to beat. This is wild. The closest Lions player was in Ypsilanti. Wait, Mohamed Sanu's a Lion? He just scored a touchdown. He also catches the two-point conversion and it's 41-25 with 6:32 left. And it's gonna stay that way. (Texans 41, Lions 25)

Division title on the line. Maybe. Washington goes three and out. Dalton keeps it and dives for a first down on 3rd and 12. Left tackle Cameron Erving heads to the Cowboys locker room. Dalton finds Cooper under pressure. But he later misses him in the end zone. Now Zach Martin's down. He gets helped off as Zeurlein hits from 33. TIGHT END PASS. Logan Thomas goes downfield to McLaurin. Smith throws into traffic to McLaurin and it's broken up. Defensive holding gives Washington a first down. Illegal contact gives Washington another one. Gibson gets to the corner and scores. Second quarter starts with Pollard breaking a tackle, Dalton whiffing on a block, and Pollard getting the first down anyway. Cooper beats Darby for a touchdown! That went for 54 yards.


Peyton Barber picks up a first down.



Wait, what? I just realized that Eagles fans can't even root for a tie in this game. Gibson can't track this swing pass. Hopkins ties it at 10. Cowboys go for it on fourth and short from their own 35, and Dalton's pass is too low for Lamb. Unnecessary roughness on the Cowboys? OK then. Aikman's wondering why DPI wasn't called. Why did you pay Elliott all that money first? If Dak signs with the Colts, you know why. Washington takes over. McKissick with another catch out of the backfield, setting up first and goal. Smith to Thomas for a touchdown. Chase Young with an easy sack. Dalton finds Gallup for a questionable first down. That's a generous spot. Are they reviewing this? Yes, OK. Call reversed, and it's 4th and 1. Give Zeke the ball, you clowns. Don't overthink this. Dalton sneak and it works. They go deep and Darby interferes with Cooper (or he would have been burned for another touchdown). Cowboys end up settling for three. 17-13 Washington at halftime. The orchestra is socially distanced. It's gotta be weird playing such a physically large venue with so few people in it. Washington challenges this Elliott run, claiming he fumbled. Er, they may get this. Call REVERSED. Washington's ball! They turn it into three more points. Cowboys punt and Washington's at their own 5. Smith to McLaurin for 20. Picked off by Jaylon Smith! Is he bringing this back? NO. McLaurin was in HOT pursuit and ran him down. Lamb drops one in the end zone. Cowboys end up kicking another field goal.


FAKE PUNT. OH MY GOD. WHAT WAS THAT? A double reverse fake punt on 4th and 10? You run that shit on 4th and 2 at midfield, McCarthy, not on 4th and 10 from your own 25. This is why nobody takes you seriously.


Now Washington gives it to Gibson and he finds a hole on the left side. Touchdown! 27-16. Barber picks up 14 and a big first down. Third down run gets stopped short and Washington goes for it. They get it! Gibson goes up the middle and he won't be caught. Touchdown. Graphic shows he lit up the Cowboys in their first game, too. Montez Sweat jumps up to knock down a pass, ends up catching it, and HE'LL score.


That's almost a carbon copy of what J.J. Watt did against the Lions. It's falling apart. Fourth down pass to Lamb comes up short. That's Washington's first sweep of Dallas since 2012. (Washington 41, Cowboys 16)


And now Lamar Jackson and three more Ravens tested positive. This game's not happening Sunday, either. WEEK 18 INCOMING. Are Tirico and Dungy still doing Bears-Packers?

Signal Finder: TEN @ IND, NYG @ CIN, AZ @ NE (end), CAR @ MIN (end), KC @ TB

I've never been a huge fan of "division opponents meet twice in three weeks." Good blitz pickup by Henry on this first-down pass to Davis. Henry already having a better game against the Colts than he did last time. And that was before he scored. Lots of Hines early for the Colts. Brissett in on fourth and two and he rolls right and gets the first down. Burton goes out of bounds inside the 20. Touchdown Burton on a very similar high throw that he had to stretch to catch as last week. 7-7. Brown breaks a shoestring tackle and takes off. Touchdown! 69 yards! First quarter ends. Roof is OPEN. Hines turns on the jets for a forest down, then he squeezes through the line for another one. Brissett sneaks for a touchdown. Not a lot of defense happening right now. Henry takes a shot from Khary Willis and drops a pass. Rare to see him lose a collision. Leonard knocks down Tannehill's third-down throw. Colts go three and out. Tannehill to Davis to the 2. Pocket collapses and Tannehill goes down on third down. But Rock Ya-Sin gets caught with illegal hands to the face, giving the Titans another chance. Henry takes it outside and scores. Titans get another stop.


Henry bursts through the hole for a big gain. Titans fake it to Henry on third and 2 and Batson takes the pitch, goes in the other direction, and gets the first down. Henry scores with a juke at the 1. You forget he's got moves, too. Burton gets hit and drops the ball. Then the Titans drop an interception. Not sure what's happening here but a Colt just got ejected. Titans going for it on 4th and 4 and Davis makes a sliding catch at the 10, then gets up and picks up six more yards. Tannehill keeps it and scores! 35-14 Titans at halftime, and they'll get the ball to start the second half. Borders intercepts Rivers. He's the one who dropped what could have been a pick-six in the second quarter earlier. Gostkowski field goal is good. Hilton makes a tough catch over Borders, but he loses the ball at the end line and the Titans recover. Oh, his knee's down. Call is overturned and it's a 50-yard gain and first and goal for the Colts. Brissett with the sneak and he gets his second touchdown today. Two-point try fails. Butler takes this catch away from Pascal, but were they already down? It's getting reviewed and everyone seems to think the Colts will keep it. Charles Davis wonders what's taking so long. Colts do keep it. Colts running out of time. Touchdown Hilton but the two-point try fails. Are the Titans picking up this onside kick? Brown's gonna score! That's just mean. (Titans 45, Colts 26)

This Week's Game That Shouldn't Have Been This Close: But hang on. That was their eighth win? THEY WON'T HAVE A LOSING RECORD! IT'S MORNING AGAIN IN CLEVELAND! (Browns 27, Jaguars 25)

Who's even the Bengals backup? This could end up being a bottom-five game of the year. It's 7-7 after one and Brandon Allen (the answer to our question) throws 15 yards away from A.J. Green. Announcers argue over whether a graphic showing Jones' turnover-less play streak is a jinx. Hasn't happened yet. Engram fumbles. The ball got punched out and the Bengals have it. Pass goes through Green's hands and somehow doesn't get picked off. Bengals get three out of it and take the lead. Dion Lewis drops a pass that Jones threw behind him. Gano, just off the COVID list, sneaks it inside the right upright from 49 and we're tied again. Snapchat of him kicking into a net in a hotel room while being quarantined. 2020, everybody! Giants get the ball to start the second half. Engram with a tough downfield catch. Jones in the medical tent. Colt McCoy's still alive? Screen to Gallman loses nine yards somehow. Field goal is good. Jones back in. This has been a fast game. Five minutes left and it's 3:30 EST. Boyd draws an interference penalty in the end zone that the announcers can't see. I'm thinking he grabbed his arm. Allen backpedals and fires one to Tee Higgins for a touchdown. There's about 2:35 left and this game just slowed down a lot. McCoy back in and he gets tackled inbounds. Giants convert a third down but offensive holding nullifies it. Bengals are out of time outs. Returner Alex Erickson gets driven back inside his own 30, breaks a tackle, and gets to midfield. Allen is sacked and fumbles! Giants ball! That's such a Bengals way to lose. (Giants 19, Bengals 17)

A DUBIOUS call on Isaiah Simmons moves the ball to the Cardinals' 39. Folk on for 50. It's GOOD. (Patriots 20, Cardinals 17)


Yeah. (Falcons 43, Raiders 6)

Vikings throwing nothing but seven-yard routes. Cousins has 10 straight completions. Rudolph wide open for No. 11. Panthers playing no defense. Now it's first and goal with 53 seconds left. Touchdown Chad Beebe, who muffed the punt earlier. Extra point is BLOCKED, but the Panthers were offsides, which is why it was blocked. Second attempt is good. Samuel gets popped but hangs on to the ball at midfield. Vikings rookie Jeff Gladney went down on that hit, stopping the clock. Anderson can't get out of bounds, and the Panthers hurry to stop the clock. They spoke it with six seconds left and Bridgewater runs off grabbing his hand. 54-yard try incoming. Slye misses BADLY. Panthers blew this. (Vikings 28, Panthers 27)


So it'll be Kendall Hinton at some point, a wide receiver on the Broncos' practice squad who last played quarterback in 2017 at Wake Forest.



That Murray touchdown isn't the quarterbacks' fault. (Saints 31, Broncos 3)

We arrive with the Chiefs at the Bucs' 1 and Nantz hoping they don't score before he can welcome us. Mahomes ends up throwing it away. Reid sends the field goal team out and it's good. Hard to throw a pass too high for Evans, but he stopped for some reason. Mahomes to Hill, who slips away from Carlton Davis and will not be caught. 75 yards! Touchdown! Hill ducks between defenders for another big pickup. Kelce loses yards after that catch. Hill sets Davis on fire again for another touchdown. He has 203 yards this QUARTER? Did I see that right? Anyway it's 17-0 Chiefs.


Do the Bucs have a first down yet? (They do.) They haven't stopped the Chiefs from getting any so far. Mahomes scrambles out of the pocket on 3rd and 8 and finds Robinson on the sideline. Was he inbounds? OK. Mahomes is hit and fumbles, and the Bucs end up with it! Brady with a dart to Gronk. I'm surprised he didn't drop that. Then he finds Ronald Jones down the sideline for a touchdown. Did he stay in? Tape says yes. Bell picks up a first down. Kelce gets eight, then Bell makes a catch right at the sticks and goes out of bounds. Field goal is good and it's 20-7. That drive gives him enough pass attempts to qualify in the all-time rankings. First in yards per game and touchdown to interception ratio. Halftime! Bucs start the second half with the ball. Brady to Gronk for 48 to the Chiefs' 5! Was that a purposeful throw away? Romo thinking Gronk might have been held. Chris Jones yelling at somebody. Bucs decide to kick it and it's good. Rory McIlroy at the game for some reason. Bucs were offsides, negating this interception. Mahomes scrambles for a first down. Touchdown to Hill! Poor Carlton Davis. Good coverage but the throw was perfect and he never saw the ball.


Brady loads up and launches one to Godwin for 46. The next pass gets picked off by Breeland! Bucs... get a stop? Whoa. Jones gets through a just-big-enough hole and takes off for 34. Pass is lofted, tipped, and Mathieu intercepts it. Romo puts some of the blame on Evans, as he wonders why Evans ran into a defender instead of going in the opposite direction. The Buccaneers' defense is keeping them in this game right now. Brady seems to have regained control with short passes. Touchdown Evans and we've got a game. Mahomes finds Hardman for 15 on 3rd and 2. Offensive holding? OK. Interception! Wait, there's a flag. It's roughing the passer! JPP and Arians can complain all they want, that is ALWAYS getting called. Chiefs have held their way out of this drive. Now Frank Clark gets flagged for hitting Brady late. And then again after he completes his second straight pass to Godwin. Touchdown Evans! 4:10 left and the Bucs kick off deep. They call their last time out and Mahomes runs for eight yards. Hill catches an eight-yard pass on 3rd and 7 and that'll be that. (Chiefs 27, Buccaneers 24)

I DID forget Jim McMahon backed up Favre at the end of his career. Looks like Tirico and Dungy in the booth tonight (meaning Al, Cris, Michele and Liam will likely be on Tuesday if that game even happens.) Also, welcome Kathryn Tappen to NFL sideline reporting. Are the Bears really running only two down linemen? Lazard leaps to the Bears' 38. Jones pats Trevathan (?) on the helmet after picking up another first down. Touchdown to Adams!


I thought Rodgers threw that ball before he actually did. Extra point is no good. Trubisky back. I forgot they put him in for one play after he got benched and that's when he actually hurt his shoulder. David Montgomery IS ALSO BACK. Massive run. First and goal at the 8 already. Kmet loses control of the ball and the Packers fall on it. Dungy thinks it's incomplete, and the refs change their call to that. Tirico did more play-by-play on whether or not LaFleur would throw the challenge flag than on this pass to Robinson, who can't corral the ball before being knocked out of bounds. Field goal is good. St. Brown gives the packers a first down. Adams gets to the Bears' 5. Second quarter starts with Rodgers finding Lewis in the end zone for a score. 13-3. Trubisky throws into coverage and it's picked off in the end zone.


Jet sweep to St. Brown, who's been playing a lot more these last few weeks. Rodgers gets taken down from behind on 3rd and 4. They go for it on 4th and 2, run a bunch of crossing routes, and Tonyan gets open for a first down. Rodgers almost shot-puts this pass falling backwards and Lazard works his way open, jumps, and catches a touchdown. Trubisky misses badly downfield. Fumble! Preston Smith picks it up and scores! 27-3.


Packers protest this interference call but nothing comes of it. Trubisky flips it to Robinson for the score. That's their first offensive touchdown in four weeks (including a bye). 27-10 Packers at halftime. Trubisky drops the ball after a fake handoff but recovers. Another bad Trubisky throw ends up in the hands of Darnell Savage. Feels like we're seeing an era end tonight. Touchdown Tonyan. That's how you throw that pass, Mitch. Take notes. Rodgers also passed the 50,000 yard mark. Only Roethlisberger got there in fewer pass attempts (Dungy says he never would have guessed that, and I agree with him). Lazard gets FLATTENED. A lot of talking going on during the break and we even come back to Rodgers and Kyle Fuller having a back and forth. Jamal Williams goes up the middle for 17. Touchdown Williams!


Just running over people. Dungy says the Bears have given up. I'm not saying Matt Nagy's getting fired tomorrow. I am saying that tonight has sealed his fate. This entire fourth quarter is garbage time. Touchdown Robinson. Don't know why Rodgers is still in this game.




(Packers 41, Bears 25)

And now Ravens-Steelers has been moved to WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.


Also we're getting a tripleheader next Monday because Washington-Steelers is also being moved. Or not, as Cowboys-Ravens as been moved from Thursday to NEXT Tuesday. And the 49ers have been kicked out of Santa Clara and are going to Arizona. This is chaos. Just do Week 18 and be done with it, NFL.

How is this coaching staff going to prepare two quarterbacks when they can't prepare one? Three and out as Jeffery drops the ball on third down. Chris Carson's back for the Seahawks. Metcalf converts third down on a slant. Metcalf and Slay getting into it, and there's a flag. It'll be on Slay. And there's another one on Malik Jackson, who hits Metcalf in the back for payback. Hyde gets stuffed on third down. No one's here, right? The Philadelphia outdoor gathering ban is back on. Seahawks go for it and it does not work. Don't know why they ran the ball twice when Metcalf has the Eagles rattled. Eagles' second drive is as successful as the first.



Mills is upset and wants OPI on Hollister on that incomplete pass. The Eagles are clearly sick of hearing about how they passed on Metcalf, as they've hit him hard every time he's seen the ball. Seahawks gong for it again on fourth and 2 but they run out of play clock. Seahawks try a Wilson keeper and Barnett stops HIM, too. Wentz just misses Goedert downfield as Bobby Wagner knocks the pass away. Then he gets sacked on third down. Seahawks can't seem to get plays in. They've already burned two time outs and now there's a delay of game. This is what I'm talking about with the coaching. Like, why is Hightower, who might be the fastest guy on the team, running a two-yard swing route? There's no coherency or internal logic to this game plan and there hasn't been all season. The first quarter's over. Hurts comes in — and the play gets blown dead because of a false start. Now first and 15, and Hurts completes it to Jeffery for his first catch of the season. Wentz comes back in on 3rd and 8... and gets sacked. Levy doesn't get it, asking why not leave Hurts in for a few plays if you're going to do this. Wilson completes a pass to Lockett coming over the middle. Wilson fires a deep ball to Metcalf and he has it at the 1. Touchdown Moore. Hurts in on 3rd and 2 and he hands off to Sanders, who only gets one. Duke Riley gets flagged for a horse-collar tackle on Carson. Metcalf gets open and is forced out at the 4. See, I thought Wilson committed intentional grounding two plays earlier when Slay got hit for illegal contact. Carson bulls his way into the end zone. They called that a sack? Seriously? Wentz takes off and runs for 21 and the first first down tonight. Wentz doesn't see Goedert and throws incomplete to Reagor. Sanders gets stonewalled but just gets the first down. Snap gets away from Wentz and he throws it away. Carroll wants intentional grounding but doesn't get it. He... probably has a point. The Eagles' best offense tonight has been Wentz running the ball. Clement randomly getting a carry. The Seahawks are the only team in the NFL that hasn't had a player test positive for COVID. (Yet.) Sanders converts 3rd and 4. Wentz finds Goedert for a touchdown! Elliott MISSES the extra point, his first miss of the season, and that's what this season has been. 14-6 at halftime. A semi-decent punt return from the Eagles? Wow. Wentz finds Jeffery for a first down. Lot of histrionics here and the Eagles run a quarterback sneak. Griese thinks it was just that — histrionics. Wentz to Rodgers for 17. Goedert gets open on play action for 16 yards. Jamal Adams gets Wentz on a blitz. That's NOT his fault. Elliott hits from 42. Metcalf catches a medium in route for a decent gain, but then the ball comes out. Eagles challenge. Call stands. Field goal is good and it's now... 17-9 Seahawks. But there's still more than a quarter left. Eagles go for it on 4th and 2 near midfield, but Wright knocks down the pass. Wilson throws deep to Metcalf and there's nothing Slay can do. Metcalf's murdered him tonight.


Hyde touchdown run gets called back for holding. Field goal is good, breaking the pattern. Eagles finally remember Fulgham is on the team. Wentz underthrows Goedert but it leads to pass interference. I don't like throwing the ball on second down after Wentz misses Goedert in the end zone. Wentz and Goedert get crossed up on fourth down, the pass is intercepted, and the season ends.


When's the last time the Eagles even beat the Seahawks? I know Pederson's never beaten Carroll. Announcer cutouts feature the non-Steve Levy members in their sports uniforms, and today I learned Lisa Salters played basketball at Penn State. For all the talk/worry/anticipation about Hurts, he took two snaps tonight.


Eagles end up in a 4th and 31. It goes nowhere. Garbage time Hail Mary from Wentz is knocked down by Fulgham and caught by Rodgers with 12 seconds left. Who knows, man. Also, was that Significant To Some? (Van Pelt will tell us in a few minutes.)


I do know this: Like the Bears last night, someone's fate was sealed tonight. The only difference is, we don't yet know whose.


Also, that's a terrifying prospect that never crossed my mind until just then. (Seahawks 23, Eagles 17)

It's Wednesday Afternoon Football! This is the Champions League/Belk Bowl time slot.




You know why this game's happening now? Because NBC's committed to its New York City Christmas Tree lighting special tonight. I'm not even kidding.


I mean, there are Steelers fans everywhere. Tirico and Collinsworth in the booth, as Al gets his week off after all. Still no Lamar Jackson, Ingram or Dobbins for the Ravens. Griffin fumbles! Steelers have it. Also, no James Conner, which is why Benny Snell Jr. is starting. Ben with nowhere to go, so he just throws it, and it's intercepted. Picked off by Haden! Touchdown Steelers! (Yes, the turnaround was that fast.) Boswell misses the extra point. McCloud fumbles the punt return and it's Ravens ball at the Steelers' 16! Everyone's discombobulated. Justice Hill getting some run for the shorthanded Ravens. Touchdown Edwards. Extra point is good and the Ravens take the lead. Turns out Anthony McFarland Jr. is NOT Booger's kid, or related in any way. Roethlisberger goes deep to Ebron. Two Ravens down after that play. Tramon Williams back? Roethlisberger doesn't go after him on third down and Johnson can't make the play. Field goal is good. 9-7 Steelers. Trace McSorley is warming up on the sideline, but Griffin comes back in. Nothing doing on this drive, either. Is that five straight targets for Diontae Johnson? Ben goes to Snell on third down and gets to the eight. First and goal. Two drops later and the Steelers can't get into the end zone. Cris: "It's a perfect day." Another Boswell field goal makes it 12-7. Why DO all the pro teams here have the same color scheme? And what's Pitt's excuse? Griffin cuts inside on a keeper. He's STILL going. 40 yards! He scrambles again but pulls up. He's back in after the two-minute warning.


Griffin fires for Brown but it's off his hands. T.J. Watt was on him? Justice Hill picks up 3rd and 9. Ravens are out of time outs, and this creates a dilemma — how many plays do they have left? They run it (???) and don't get it, the Steelers are slow to get up off the ball, then with four seconds left, Griffin throws to Luke Willson, who almost catches it but Minkah Fitzpatrick breaks it up. Harbaugh is furious but it's his own fault.


Tirico interviews Goodell at halftime. He says the Broncos decision was made to limit spread and because of the lack of other health issues. He also kind of passive-aggressively chastises them by mentioning that "we gave teams additional roster flexibility."

Steelers go for it on 4th and 2 from the Ravens' 37, but Claypool can't bring it in. Ravens put together a small drive but also end up punting. Watt flies in and brings down Griffin. Ravens punt. Jimmy Smith out with a groin injury. Tomlin challenges this incompletion and wins. The Steelers converted a third down! They go deep to Johnson but it's broken up. Third quarter ends.


Snell makes it first and goal at the 2. Ben finds Juju for a touchdown! That might do it. Ravens punt on 4th and 3 with 11:20 left. NOW McSorley is in. Designed run on 4th and 2 and he picks it up. Fitzpatrick drops an interception. Announcers talk about the Steelers' chances of going undefeated. It won't be easy. Hollywood catches a wheel route and takes off. He puts a move on Fitzpatrick and that's a touchdown! It's McSorley's first and the first passing first down the Ravens have today. They kick it deep with 2:58 left. Johnson fumbles out of bounds. James Washington just bailed Roethlisberger out — that pass was a bad decision on every level and he still caught it in traffic. Snell gets another first down. That's the Ravens' last time out. Snell gets seven, then two. Third and short and this looks close. Officials say he got it. I'm... not sure about that spot? Here's the problem for the Ravens: Even if it's short, it's only third down. They'd have to get another stop, and even then there would only be about 40 seconds left and they're out of time outs. Call STANDS. That's game. (Steelers 19, Ravens 14)

RANKINGS:
TOP 4:

4. Green Bay (8-3) — That's more like it

BOTTOM 4:
28. (tie) Philadelphia (3-7-1) — Who's any good?
28. (tie) Dallas (3-8) — Was that a white flag?
30. Cincinnati (2-8-1) — The usual unfortunate circumstances
31. Jacksonville (1-10) — Mike Glennon? Why?
32. N.Y. Jets (0-11) — Good thing nobody's there to see this
