Week 17 NFL Preview

​SEVEN PLAYOFF BERTHS REMAIN, 18 TEAMS IN CONTENTION FOR SUPER BOWL LV AS NFL CONCLUDES REGULAR SEASON The NFL concludes its 101st regular season on Sunday and for the 11th consecutive year, all games on the season-ending docket are division contests. Playoff ramifications are aplenty. In 2020, the NFL expanded the playoffs by two teams, adding one Wild Card berth to each conference. The change has only added to the excitement. Seven playoff berths are still to be claimed. That’s the most available playoff berths entering the season’s final weekend in 31 years, since there also were seven in 1989. A total of 18 teams – more than half of the league – remain in contention for Super Bowl LV in Tampa. The NFL hasn’t had more than 18 teams in contention entering the final week since there were 20 in 2006. WIN AND IN, AFC: Five teams in the AFC are battling for the conference’s final four playoff berths. The BALTIMORE RAVENS (10-5) with a win at Cincinnati (4-10-1) on Sunday (1:00 PM ET, CBS) will nail down their third consecutive trip to the playoffs. The CLEVELAND BROWNS (10-5) with a home victory over Pittsburgh (12-3) on Sunday (1:00 PM ET, CBS) will have their first playoff berth since 2002. The MIAMI DOLPHINS (10-5) with a win at Buffalo (12-3) on Sunday (1:00 PM ET, CBS) will clinch a playoff berth for the first time since 2016. The TENNESSEE TITANS (10-5) with a win at Houston (4-11) on Sunday (4:25 PM ET, CBS) will cement their first division title since 2008. Meanwhile, the INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (10-5), who host Jacksonville (1-14) on Sunday (4:25 PM ET, CBS), can still win their division with a win and a Titans loss or tie, which would lock up their first AFC South title since 2014. They also can make the playoffs as a Wild Card team with a win and a loss or tie by either Baltimore, Cleveland or Miami. WIN AND IN, NFC: Six teams in the NFC are battling for the conference’s final three playoff berths. When the ARIZONA CARDINALS (8-7) travel to meet the LOS ANGELES RAMS (9-6) on Sunday (4:25 PM ET, CBS), the winning team will be rewarded with a Wild Card berth. The CHICAGO BEARS (8-7) can return to the playoffs with a home win over Green Bay (12-3) on Sunday (4:25 PM ET, FOX). The WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM (6-9) needs a win at Philadelphia (4-10-1) on Sunday Night Football (8:20 PM ET, NBC) to clinch its first playoff berth and division title since 2015. When the DALLAS COWBOYS (6-9) and NEW YORK GIANTS (5-10) meet at MetLife Stadium on Sunday (1:00 PM ET, FOX), the winning team will keep its playoff hopes alive. The Cowboys-Giants winner would need a Washington loss Sunday night to clinch the NFC East and the No. 4 seed in the NFC playoffs. The Cowboys are seeking their second division title in three years while the Giants would have their first playoff berth since 2016 and first division crown since 2011. Three teams in the NFC – the GREEN BAY PACKERS (12-3), NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (11-4) and SEATTLE SEAHAWKS (11-4) – can nail down the No. 1 seed as the conference’s only first-round bye this weekend. Green Bay has the inside track at the coveted position, needing only a win at Chicago (8-7) on Sunday (4:25 PM ET, FOX). PLAYOFF BERTHS LOCKED IN: Last week, the KANSAS CITY CHIEFS (14-1) clinched the AFC’s lone first-round bye and homefield advantage throughout the playoffs, securing the No. 1 seed in the AFC for the second time in the past three seasons (2018). With a win against the Los Angeles Chargers (6-9) on Sunday (4:25 PM ET, FOX), the Chiefs will tie the 2011 Packers (15-1, .938) for the best regular-season record by a defending Super Bowl champion in NFL history. The BUFFALO BILLS (12-3) clinched the AFC East division title for the first time since 1995. The GREEN BAY PACKERS (12-3) clinched the NFC North division title for the second-consecutive season. The PITTSBURGH STEELERS (12-3) last week overcame a 17-point deficit to win and clinch the AFC North division title for the first time since 2017. Pittsburgh won the AFC North after missing the postseason in 2019. In each of the past 43 seasons (1977-2020, excluding 1982, when divisional play did not occur), at least one team has won its division the season after missing the playoffs. T The NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (11-4) clinched the NFC South division title for the fourth-consecutive season. The SEATTLE SEAHAWKS (11-4) clinched the NFC West division title for the first time since 2016. The TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (10-5) clinched their first playoff berth since 2007. TWO LONGEST DROUGHTS COULD BE HISTORY: After the TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (10-5) clinched their first playoff appearance since 2007, the CLEVELAND BROWNS (10-5) now can return to the postseason for the first time since 2002. If that happens, the NFL would see its two longest active playoff droughts end in the same season for only the fourth time since the league merger in 1970. It also happened in 1999 (Seattle and the St. Louis Rams), 1988 (Buffalo and Philadelphia) and 1987 (New Orleans and Indianapolis). The 1999 ST. LOUIS RAMS went on to win Super Bowl XXXIV. COMEBACK NATION: This season, there have been 42 games in which a team has overcome a deficit of at least 10 points to win, the most through Week 16 in NFL history. The single-season NFL record is 43, in both 2013 and 2014. There also have been nine games in a which a team has overcome a deficit of at least 17 points to win, trailing only the 2011 season (11 games) for the most ever in a single season. SINGLE-SEASON NFL RECORDS: Two significant NFL records fell last week and at least two more are likely to fall in Week 17. Buffalo wide receiver STEFON DIGGS caught an 18-yard touchdown pass from JOSH ALLEN last week to give the NFL 1,372 touchdowns this season and break the single-season league record (1,371 touchdowns in 2018). Diggs leads the NFL in both receptions (120) and receiving yards (1,459). The total number of NFL touchdowns this season is 1,373 entering Week 17. Also last week, New Orleans running back ALVIN KAMARA kicked off the weekend by tying an NFL single-game record with six rushing touchdowns. NFL teams went on to break the 41-year-old league record for rushing touchdowns in a season. The total is 494 entering Week 17. The single-season league record was 487 in 1979. NFL teams have scored 11,854 points through 16 weeks. The single-season league record is 11,985 points in 2013. NFL teams have scored 812 passing touchdowns through 16 weeks. The single-season league record is 847 in 2018.​ PASSER RATING: Green Bay quarterback AARON RODGERS leads all qualified players with a 119.4 passer rating. When the Packers play at Chicago on Sunday (4:25 PM ET, FOX), he has an opportunity to finish the season with one of the top three single-season passer ratings in NFL history among qualified players.

Henry, who has 3,317 combined rushing yards from 2019-20, also has an opportunity this week to register one of the top consecutive-season rushing totals in NFL history.

Pittsburgh (AFC North) and the WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM (NFC East) can each clinch their respective division titles this weekend after missing the postseason in 2019. In each of the past 42 seasons (1977-2019, excluding 1982, when divisional play did not occur), at least one team has won its division the season after missing the playoffs. At least two teams have won their divisions the season after missing the playoffs in 16 of the past 17 years. Additionally, the ARIZONA CARDINALS (8-6) can clinch a playoff berth for the first time since 2015, the CLEVELAND BROWNS (10-4) can return to the postseason for the first time since 2002 and the TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (9-5) can secure a playoff spot for the first time since 2007, while the INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (10-4) and LOS ANGELES RAMS (9-5) can each return to the postseason after missing it last year. Since 1990, at least four teams every season have qualified for the playoffs after failing to make the postseason the year before.​ For the full Week 16 playoff scenarios, click here. -- NFL -- CAREER PASSING LEADERS: Last week, Atlanta quarterback MATT RYAN surpassed 4,000 passing yards for the 10th time in his career, becoming the fifth player to reach the mark in at least 10 seasons in NFL history. ​ In Week 16, Tampa Bay quarterback TOM BRADY (3,886 passing yards) and Indianapolis quarterback PHILIP RIVERS (3,725) can each surpass 4,000 passing yards for the 12th time, tying DREW BREES (12 seasons) for the second-most seasons with 4,000 passing yards in league history.

PARTIDOS EN NAVIDAD. Los MINNESOTA VIKINGS (6-8) y NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (10-4) dan arranque a la semana 16 con un partido de Navidad el viernes (4:30 PM, FOX/NFLN/Amazon). Con un triunfo, los Saints asegurarán su cuarto título consecutivo de la NFC Sur. Incluyendo la postemporada, este será el 22do partido disputado en Navidad desde la fusión de 1970. Esa lista incluye el partido más largo en la historia de la NFL, el 25 de diciembre de 1971, cuando Miami derrotó a Kansas City 27-24 en doble prórroga para clasificar a los playoffs en la AFC.   El receptor de Minnesota JUSTIN JEFFERSON es el quinto novato con al menos seis partidos de 100 o más yardas recibiendo en la historia, uniéndose a BILL GROMAN (nueve en 1960), ODELL BECKHAM JR. (siete en 2014), HARLON HILL (siete en 1954) y BILLY HOWTON (seis en 1952). LOS RESURGENTES BUCS Y BRADY DAN COMIENZO A LA TRIPLE JORNADA DE SÁBADO. Los TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (9-5) y los DETROIT LIONS (5-9) disputan el primero de tres juegos de sábado esta semana (1:00 PM, hora de New York, NFLN). Con una victoria, Tampa Bay pueden asegurarse su primera plaza en postemporada desde 2007. Se espera que el mariscal de campo de los Buccaneers TOM BRADY titularice el 298° partido de temporada regular en su carrera para empatar la marca de la NFL, ostentada por el miembro del Salón de la Fama BRETT FAVRE, que tuvo 298 titularidades en el lapso 1991-2010. El sábado también marcará el 300° partido de temporada regular en la carrera de Brady, convirtiéndolo en el 12° jugador en la historia que alcanza tal hito. La semana pasada, Brady lanzó 390 yardas y dos anotaciones, sin intercepción alguna, para un índice de 110.4. Ahora tiene 19 partidos en su carrera con al menos 375 yardas aéreas y dos pases anotadores, superando a PHILIP RIVERS (18 partidos) para la tercera mayor cantidad de tales desempeños en la historia de la NFL. Solamente DREW BREES (32) y PEYTON MANNING (20) tienen más. Los Buccaneers se sobrepusieron a una desventaja de 17 puntos para terminara ganando la semana pasada. Marcó la cuarta vez esta temporada que Tampa Bay resurge desde una desventaja de al menos 10 puntos, empatando con los NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (cuatro remontadas de 10 o más puntos) para la mayor cantidad en la NFL.  En toda la NFL esta temporada, han habido 40 partidos en los que un equipo se sobrepone a una desventaja de al menos 10 puntos para terminar ganando, la mayor cantidad a lo largo de primeras 15 semanas en la historia de la liga. También hubo ocho partidos en los que un equipo se sobrepone a una desventaja de al menos 17 puntos para ganar, solamente detrás de la temporada 2011 (nueve partidos) para la mayor cantidad en la historia a lo largo de las primeras 15 semanas. DESDE ÚLTIMO HASTA LA POSTEMPORARA. En 15 de las anteriores 17 temporadas (2003-19), al menos un equipo en la NFL saltaron del último puesto en su división, en solitario o empatado, hasta la postemporada de la siguiente temporada. Seis equipos lo han hecho a lo largo de las últimas tres temporadas, incluyendo los PHILADELPHIA EAGLES de 2017, que ganaron el Super Bowl LII tras haber finalizando últimos en la NFC Este en 2016. Esta temporada, tres equipos están buscando unirse a ese grupo: los ARIZONA CARDINALS (8-6), MIAMI DOLPHINS (9-5) y WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM (6-8). Washington, que recibe a Carolina el domingo (4:05 PM, hora de New York, CBS), puede asegurarse su primer título divisional y una plaza en postemporada desde 2015 con una victoria y una derrota o empate de los Giants. Los Cardinals, que amarrarán su primera plaza en postemporada desde 2015 con una victoria y una derrota o empate de Chicago, reciben a San Francisco en el segundo de los tres partidos del sábado (4:30 PM, hora de New York, Amazon).  La semana pasada, el mariscal de campo KYLER MURRAY lanzó 406 yardas, con tres anotaciones, una intercepción y un índice de 127.8, agregando un acarreo anotador.  Murray tiene nueve partidos con tanto un pase anotador como una anotación terrestre esta temporada, la mayor cantidad por un mariscal de campo en una misma temporada en la historia de la NFL. Murray tiene 10 partidos en su carrera con tanto algún pase anotador como algún acarreo anotador y es el último mariscal de campo con 10 partidos de ese estilo en sus primeras dos temporadas en la historia de la NFL, uniéndose a CAM NEWTON (14 partidos), JOSH ALLEN (10) y STEVE GROGAN (10). Murray, que tiene 26 pases anotadores y 11 acarreos anotadores esta temporada, se unió a CAM NEWTON (2015) como los únicos mariscales de campo con al menos 25 pases anotadores y 10 acarreos anotadores en una sola temporada en la historia de la NFL. SEIS EQUIPOS BUSCAN CUATRO PLAZAS EN LA AFC. Seis los equipos de la AFC –los BALTIMORE RAVENS (9-5), CLEVELAND BROWNS (10-4), INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (10-4), LAS VEGAS RAIDERS (7-7), MIAMI DOLPHINS (9-5) y TENNESSEE TITANS (10-4)– están batallando por las últimas cuatro plazas para playoffs en la conferencia. Una de ellas será para el campeón de la AFC Sur, que será los Colts o los Titans. Miami visita a Las Vegas el sábado por la noche (8:15 PM, hora de New York, NFLN) para un duelo clave de la AFC. Si los Dolphins pueden asegurarse una plaza en postemporada, Miami habrá pasado desde el último puesto en su división el año pasado hasta la postemporada. ​ COLTS-STEELERS CHOCAN EN LA CIUDAD DE ACERO. Con una victoria y una derrota de Miami o Baltimore, los INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (10-4) pueden conseguir su plaza en postemporada cuando choquen con los PITTSBURGH STEELERS (11-3) el domingo en Heinz Field (1:00 PM, hora de New York, CBS). Pittsburgh, en tanto, pueden asegurarse su primer título divisional de la AFC Norte desde 2017 con un triunfo sobre los Colts.  El partido es uno de los dos equipos con 10 o más victorias llegando a la semana 16, precediendo a la batalla del domingo en la noche entre Tennessee y Green Bay. En cuatro de las últimas seis temporadas (2014-19), un choque similar que involucraba a equipos con 10 o más victorias en la semana 16 o más tarde produjo un eventual clasificado al Super Bowl. Los SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS de 2019 , NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS de 2016, DENVER BRONCOS de 2015 y SEATTLE SEAHAWKS de 2014 llegaron a los respectivos Super Bowls tras un duelo tardío en temporada regular contra un oponente con al menos 10 victorias. Esta semana, tanto Pittsburgh como el WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM (contra Carolina el domingo, 4:05 PM, hora de New York, CBS) pueden asegurar sus respectivas divisiones tras haberse perdido la postemporada la temporada pasada. Al menos dos equipos de la NFL ganaron sus divisiones la temporada siguiente a no haber clasificado a la postemporada en 16 de los últimos 17 años.​ EL DOMINGO POR LA NOCHE, EN LAMBEAU. En una batalla inerconferencia entre equipos líderes de división, los TENNESSEE TITANS (10-4) viajan al norte para verse las caras con los GREEN BAY PACKERS (11-3) en el clásico de domingo en la noche Sunday Night Football (8:20 PM, hora de New York, NBC).  Los Titans pueden asegurarse una plaza en postemporada con una victoria, una derrota de Las Vegas el sábado o bien una caída de Baltimore el domingo. Tennessee puede asir su primer título divisional de la AFC Sur desde 2008 con una victoria y una derrota de los Colts. Green Bay puede quedarse con la preclasificación Nº1 de la NFC y el derecho a quedar libre en primera vuelta con una victoria combinada con una derrota o empate de Seattle. Tennessee generó al menos 30 puntos y 420 o más yardas de ofensiva total en cinco partidos consecutivos. Los Titans son uno de los cinco equipos en la historia con una racha como tal. Si Tennessee alcanza cada una de esas marcas el domingo en la noche, Tennessee se convertirá en el primer equipo en la historia con al menos 30 puntos y 420 o más yardas de ofensiva total en seis partidos consecutivos. El corredor de los Titans DERRICK HENRY registró al menos 100 yardas por tierra en nueve partidos consecutivos fuera de casa, la segunda racha más larga en la historia de la NFL. Con 100 yardas terrestres el domingo en la noche, igualará la marca de la NFL ostentada por el miembro del Salón de la Fama BARRY SANDERS (10 partidos consecutivos en 1996-97). Henry, que lideró la NFL con 1,540 yardas por tierra y tuvo 16 acarreos anotadores en 2019, tiene 1,679 yardas por tierra y 15 acarreos anotadores esta temporada, uniéndose a SHAUN ALEXANDER(2004-05), al miembro del Salón de la Fama TERRELL DAVIS (1997-98) y a LARRY JOHNSON (2005-06) como los únicos jugadores en la historia de la NFL con al menos 1,500 yardas por tierra y 15 acarreos anotadores en temporadas consecutivas. La semana pasada, el mariscal de campo de Tennessee RYAN TANNEHILL se convirtió en el tercer jugador con un índice de pasador de 145 o superior, tres pases anotadores y dos acarreos anotadores en un mismo partido en la historia de la NFL, uniéndose a JACK KEMP (4 de diciembre de 1960) y MICHAEL VICK (15 de noviembre de 2010). El mariscal de campo de Green Bay AARON RODGERS lidera la liga con 40 pases anotadores y un índice de pasador de 118.0 (mínimo de 100 intentos). Rodgers tiene 3,828 yardas aéreas en 2020 y necesita 172 para alcanzar las 4,000 en una temporada por novena vez en su carrera. La semana pasada, Rodgers se convirtió en el primer jugador en la historia de la NFL con tres temporadas de al menos 40 pases anotadores. También alcanzó la marca en 2016 (40 pases anotadores) y 2011 (45), cuando ganó el premio a Jugador más valioso (MVP, por sus siglas en inglés). El receptor de los Packers DAVANTE ADAMS ingresa a la semana 16 con 98 recepciones para 1,186 yardas, y se ubica segundo en la liga con 14 recepciones anotadoras. El domingo en la noche, puede convertirse en el sexto jugador con al menos 100 recepciones, 1,200 yardas recibiendo y 15 recepciones anotadoras en una sola temporada en la historia de la NFL. LOS CHIEFS, ENTRE LOS MEJORES CAMPEONES DEFENSORES DEL SUPER BOWL. Los KANSAS CITY CHIEFS (13-1) pueden asegurarse la preclasificación Nº 1 en la AFC y ser el único equipo con derecho a quedar libre en la primera vuelta de la conferencia con una victoria contra los ATLANTA FALCONS (4-10) en Arrowhead Stadium el domingo (1:00 PM, hora de New York, FOX). Kansas City está buscando igualar el mejor registro en regular temporada por un campeón defensor del Super Bowl en la historia de la NFL. Los campeones defensores del Super Bowl con los mejores porcentajes de victorias en temporada regular en la historia de la NFL: EQUIPO TEMPORADA G P E % Green Bay 2011 15 1 0 .938 New England 2004 14 2 0 .875 Denver 1998 14 2 0 .875 San Francisco 1990 14 2 0 .875 San Francisco 1989 14 2 0 .875 Chicago 1986 14 2 0 .875 Washington 1983 14 2 0 .875   El mariscal de campo de los Chiefs PATRICK MAHOMES la semana pasada lanzó 254 yardas, con tres anotaciones, ninguna intercepción y un índice de 92.0. Mahomes tiene 21 partido en su carrera con al menos tres pases anotadores, empatando con el miembro del Salón de la Fama KURT WARNER (21) para la segunda mayor cantidad de tales desempeños por un QB en sus primeras cuatro temporadas en la historia de la NFL. Solamente el miembro del Salón de la Fama DAN MARINO (27) tiene más. El ala cerrada de Kansas City TRAVIS KELCE se ubica segundo en la NFL con 1,318 yardas recibiendo. Kelce, primer TE con al menos 1,200 yardas recibiendo en tres temporadas en la historia de la NFL, necesita 60 yardas recibiendo el domingo para superar a GEORGE KITTLE (1,377 yardas recibiendo en 2018) para la mayor cantidad de yardas recibiendo por un ala cerrada en una misma temporada en la historia de la NFL. El mariscal de campo de Atlanta MATT RYAN el domingo lanzó 356 yardas, con tres anotaciones, ninguna intercepción y un índice de 110.6. Ryan tiene 343 pases anotadores en su carrera de 13 años y superó al miembro del Salón de la Fama FRAN TARKENTON (342) para la décima mayor cantidad de pases anotadores en la historia de la NFL. NOVATO EN ALZA. Cuando los JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS (1-13) reciban a los CHICAGO BEARS (7-7) el domingo (1:00 PM, hora de New York, CBS), el corredor JAMES ROBINSON tiene la oportunidad hacer más historia.  Robinson, que tiene 10 anotaciones (siete acarreando, tres recibiendo), necesita una más para establecer la mayor cantidad por un novato no seleccionado en la era del draft unificado. Está actualmente empatado con PHILLIP LINDSAY (10 en 2018) y DOMINIC RHODES (10 en 2001). Robinson ya tiene 1,414 yardas desde la línea de golpeo, la mayor cantidad por un novato no seleccionado en la era del draft unificado, habiendo superado a Rhodes (1,328 en 2001) y a Lindsay (1,278 en 2018).  ALLEN Y LOS BILLS CIERRAN LA SEMANA EL LUNES POR LA NOCHE. Los BUFFALO BILLS (11-3), que se aseguraron el título divisional de la AFC Este por primera ocasión desde 1995, viajan al Gillette Stadium para enfrentarse contra los NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (6-8) en el último duelo de la temporada del clásico de lunes en la noche Monday Night Football  (8:15 PM, hora de New York, ESPN). La semana pasada, el mariscal de campo de los Bills JOSH ALLEN se convirtió en el primer mariscal de campo en la historia de la NFL con al menos ocho acarreos anotadores en tres temporadas consecutivas.  El receptor de los Bills STEFON DIGGS lidera la NFL con 111 recepciones, una marca de franquicia, y se ubica tercero en la liga con 1,314 yardas recibiendo. Esta temporada, 13 jugadores de Buffalo se hicieron con al menos un pase anotador, empatando la mayor cantidad en la historia de la NFL.

Week 16 NFL Preview ​​ WEEK 16 FEATURES FOOTBALL ON FOUR STRAIGHT DAYS AS PLAYOFF PICTURE COMES INTO FOCUS With four straight days of football, a Christmas Day contest, a Saturday tripleheader and two clashes of teams with 10-or-more wins – including a Sunday night showdown on the Frozen Tundra – the NFL’s stockings are full entering Week 16. CHRISTMAS DAY GAMES: The MINNESOTA VIKINGS (6-8) and NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (10-4) kick off Week 16 with a Christmas Day game on Friday (4:30 PM, FOX/NFLN/Amazon). The Saints will clinch a fourth consecutive NFC South title with a win. Including the postseason, this will be the 22nd game played on Christmas Day since the 1970 league merger. That list includes the longest game in NFL history, Dec. 25, 1971, when Miami defeated Kansas City, 27-24, in double overtime to advance in the AFC playoffs.  Minnesota wide receiver JUSTIN JEFFERSON is the fifth rookie with at least six games of 100-or-more receiving yards in history, joining BILL GROMAN (nine games in 1960), ODELL BECKHAM JR. (seven games in 2014), HARLON HILL (seven games in 1954) and BILLY HOWTON (six games in 1952). COMEBACK BUCS, BRADY KICK OFF SATURDAY TRIPLEHEADER: The TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (9-5) and DETROIT LIONS (5-9) play the first of three Saturday games this week (1:00 PM ET, NFLN). Tampa Bay can clinch its first playoff berth since 2007 with a win. Buccaneers quarterback TOM BRADY is expected to start his 298th regular-season game and tie the NFL record held by Pro Football Hall of Famer BRETT FAVRE, who made 298 starts from 1991-2010. Saturday also will mark the 300th regular-season game in Brady’s career, making him the 12th player ever to reach that milestone. Last week, Brady passed for 390 yards and two touchdowns with zero interceptions for a 110.4 rating. He now has 19 career games with at least 375 passing yards and two touchdown passes, surpassing PHILIP RIVERS (18 games) for the third-most such games in NFL history. Only DREW BREES (32) and PEYTON MANNING (20) have more. The Buccaneers overcame a 17-point deficit to win last week. It marked the fourth time this season Tampa Bay has come back from a deficit of at least 10 points, tied with the NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (four comebacks of 10-or-more points) for most in the NFL. Throughout the NFL this season, there have been 40 games in which a team has overcome a deficit of at least 10 points to win, the most through Week 15 in league history. There also have been eight games in a which a team has overcome a deficit of at least 17 points to win, trailing only the 2011 season (nine games) for the most ever through Week 15. FROM LAST PLACE TO THE PLAYOFFS: In 15 of the previous 17 seasons (2003-19), at least one NFL team has made the leap from last or tied for last in its division to the playoffs the following season. Six teams have done it over the last three seasons, including the 2017 PHILADELPHIA EAGLES, who won Super Bowl LII after finishing last in the NFC East in 2016. This season, three teams are vying to join that group: the ARIZONA CARDINALS (8-6), MIAMI DOLPHINS (9-5) and WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM (6-8). Washington, which hosts Carolina on Sunday (4:05 PM ET, CBS), can clinch its first division title and playoff berth since 2015 with a win and a Giants loss or tie. The Cardinals, who will clinch their first playoff berth since 2015 with a win and a Chicago loss or tie, host San Francisco in the second of three games on Saturday (4:30 PM ET, Amazon). Last week, quarterback KYLER MURRAY passed for 406 yards with three touchdowns and one interception for a 127.8 rating and added a rushing touchdown. Murray has nine games with both a passing touchdown and rushing touchdown this season, the most by a quarterback in a single season in NFL history. Murray has 10 career games with both a passing touchdown and rushing touchdown and is the fourth quarterback with 10 such games in his first two seasons in NFL history, joining CAM NEWTON (14 games), JOSH ALLEN (10) and STEVE GROGAN (10). Murray, who has 26 touchdown passes and 11 rushing touchdowns this season, joined CAM NEWTON (2015) as the only quarterbacks with at least 25 touchdown passes and 10 rushing touchdowns in a single season in NFL history. SIX TEAMS VYING FOR FOUR BERTHS IN AFC: Six AFC teams – the BALTIMORE RAVENS (9-5), CLEVELAND BROWNS (10-4), INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (10-4), LAS VEGAS RAIDERS (7-7), MIAMI DOLPHINS (9-5) and TENNESSEE TITANS (10-4) – are battling for the final four playoff berths in the conference. One of those spots will go to the AFC South winner, either the Colts or Titans. Miami is in Las Vegas on Saturday night (8:15 PM ET, NFLN) for a key AFC tilt. If the Dolphins can secure a playoff berth, Miami will have gone from last place in its division the previous year to the postseason. ​ COLTS-STEELERS CLASH IN STEEL CITY: With a win and a loss by Miami or Baltimore, the INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (10-4) can cement a spot in the AFC playoffs when they meet the PITTSBURGH STEELERS (11-3) on Sunday at Heinz Field (1:00 PM ET, CBS). Pittsburgh, meanwhile, can clinch its first AFC North division title since 2017 with a win over the Colts. The game is one of two involving teams with 10-or-more wins on the NFL’s Week 16 docket, preceding the Sunday night battle between Tennessee and Green Bay. In four of the past six seasons (2014-19), a similar matchup involving teams with 10-or-more wins in Week 16 or later has produced an eventual Super Bowl team. The 2019 SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS, 2016 NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS, 2015 DENVER BRONCOS and 2014 SEATTLE SEAHAWKS each vaulted to the Super Bowl after a late-season showdown against an opponent with at least 10 wins. This week, both Pittsburgh and the WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM (vs. Carolina on Sunday, 4:05 PM ET, CBS) can clinch divisions after missing the playoffs last season. At least two NFL teams have won their divisions the season after missing the playoffs in 16 of the past 17 years.​ SUNDAY NIGHT SHOWDOWN AT LAMBEAU: In an interconference battle of first-place teams, the TENNESSEE TITANS (10-4) head north to meet the GREEN BAY PACKERS (11-3) on Sunday Night Football (8:20 PM ET, NBC). The Titans can clinch a playoff berth with a win, a Las Vegas loss Saturday or a Baltimore loss earlier in the day on Sunday. Tennessee can capture its first AFC South division title since 2008 with a win and a Colts loss. Green Bay can nail down the NFC’s No. 1 seed and the conference’s only first-round bye with a win combined with a Seattle loss or tie. Tennessee has generated at least 30 points and 420-or-more yards of total offense in five consecutive games. The Titans are one of five teams in history with such a streak. If Tennessee reaches each of those marks on Sunday night, Tennessee will become the first team in history with at least 30 points and 420-or-more yards of total offense in six consecutive games. Titans running back DERRICK HENRY has recorded at least 100 rushing yards in nine consecutive road games, the second-longest streak in NFL history. With 100 rushing yards on Sunday night, he will match the NFL record held by Pro Football Hall of Famer BARRY SANDERS (10 consecutive games from 1996-97). Henry, who led the NFL with 1,540 rushing yards and had 16 rushing touchdowns in 2019, has 1,679 rushing yards and 15 rushing touchdowns this season and joined SHAUN ALEXANDER (2004-05), Pro Football Hall of Famer TERRELL DAVIS (1997-98) and LARRY JOHNSON (2005-06) as the only players in NFL history with at least 1,500 rushing yards and 15 rushing touchdowns in consecutive seasons. Last week, Tennessee quarterback RYAN TANNEHILL became the third player with a passer rating of 145-or-higher, three touchdown passes and two rushing touchdowns in a single game in NFL history, joining JACK KEMP (Dec. 4, 1960) and MICHAEL VICK (Nov. 15, 2010). Green Bay quarterback AARON RODGERS leads the league with 40 touchdown passes and a 118.0 passer rating (minimum 100 attempts). Rodgers has 3,828 passing yards in 2020 and needs 172 to reach 4,000 in a season for the ninth time in his career. Last week, Rodgers became the first player in NFL history with three seasons of at least 40 touchdown passes. He also reached the mark in 2016 (40 touchdown passes) and his MVP-winning 2011 season (45). Packers wide receiver DAVANTE ADAMS enters Week 16 with 98 receptions for 1,186 yards and ranks second in the league with 14 touchdown receptions. On Sunday night, he can become the sixth player with at least 100 receptions, 1,200 receiving yards and 15 touchdown receptions in a single season in NFL history. CHIEFS AMONG TOP DEFENDING SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS: The KANSAS CITY CHIEFS (13-1) can secure the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoffs and the lone first-round bye with a win against the ATLANTA FALCONS (4-10) at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday (1:00 PM ET, FOX). Kansas City is seeking to match the best regular season by a defending Super Bowl champion in NFL history. The defending Super Bowl champions with the best regular-season winning percentages in NFL history: TEAM SEASON W L T PCT Green Bay 2011 15 1 0 .938 New England 2004 14 2 0 .875 Denver 1998 14 2 0 .875 San Francisco 1990 14 2 0 .875 San Francisco 1989 14 2 0 .875 Chicago 1986 14 2 0 .875 Washington 1983 14 2 0 .875   Chiefs quarterback PATRICK MAHOMES passed for 254 yards with three touchdowns and zero interceptions for a 92.0 rating last week. Mahomes has 21 career games with at least three touchdown passes, tied with Pro Football Hall of Famer KURT WARNER (21) for the second-most such games by a quarterback in his first four seasons in NFL history. Only Pro Football Hall of Famer DAN MARINO (27) has more. Kansas City tight end TRAVIS KELCE ranks second in the NFL with 1,318 receiving yards. The first tight end with at least 1,200 receiving yards in three seasons in NFL history, Kelce needs 60 receiving yards on Sunday to surpass GEORGE KITTLE (1,377 receiving yards in 2018) for the most receiving yards by a tight end in a single season in NFL history. Atlanta quarterback MATT RYAN passed for 356 yards and three touchdowns with zero interceptions for a 110.6 rating on Sunday. Ryan has 343 touchdown passes in his 13-year career and surpassed Pro Football Hall of Famer FRAN TARKENTON (342 touchdown passes) for the 10th-most touchdown passes in NFL history. RESOUNDING ROOKIE: When the JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS (1-13) host the CHICAGO BEARS (7-7) on Sunday (1:00 PM ET, CBS), running back JAMES ROBINSON has an opportunity to make further history. Robinson, who has 10 touchdowns (seven rushing, three receiving), needs one more to establish the most by an undrafted rookie in the common-draft era. He’s currently tied with PHILLIP LINDSAY (10 in 2018) and DOMINIC RHODES (10 in 2001). Robinson already has 1,414 yards from scrimmage, the most by an undrafted rookie in the common-draft era, having surpassed Rhodes (1,328 in 2001) and Lindsay (1,278 in 2018). ALLEN, BILLS CLOSE WEEK 16 ON MONDAY NIGHT: The BUFFALO BILLS (11-3), who’ve clinched the AFC East division title for the first time since 1995, travel to Gillette Stadium to meet the NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (6-8) in the season’s final Monday Night Football contest (8:15 PM ET, ESPN). Last week, Bills quarterback JOSH ALLEN became the first quarterback in NFL history with at least eight rushing touchdowns in three consecutive seasons. Bills wide receiver STEFON DIGGS leads the NFL with a franchise-record 111 receptions and ranks third in the league with 1,314 receiving yards. This season, 13 Buffalo players have caught at least one touchdown pass, tied for the most in NFL history.
