Game result: The Jaguars impressed the league on Sunday as they went into Denver and beat the Broncos with a certain amount of ease. It was a tight contest through the first two quarters, but the Jaguars put together a 17-0 run to put this one away. Jacksonville improved to 11-4 with the 34-20 win while Denver dropped to 12-3 with the loss. The Broncos remain in the driver’s seat for the AFC No. 1 seed, but it’s getting tight. With the Patriots win against the Ravens, 28-24, on Sunday Night Football, New England and Denver are tied for the No.
Your 8-7 Carolina Panthers are in first place in the NFC South and are facing the current number one seed in the NFC in the 12-3 Seattle Seahawks. This is likely to be a buzzsaw game for the Panthers, as they measure their playoff hopes against one of the best teams in the league whose eyes are firmly on the postseason consequences of every regular season matchup left on their schedule.

A game like this was always a concern for this team. Boy can they score a lot of points but with their reliance on the three point shot there will be games like tonight where they will struggle.
Luckily, they were playing North Dakota tonight and not Michigan State who they will see in the beginning of January.
The Huskers had a sluggish start in the first half as they went 2-18 from three (11%) and shot 28% overall. Yet at the half they were only down two. If that happens against Michigan State then they will find themselves in a huge hole.
The Ravens have expanded their lead early in the fourth quarter.
Derrick Henry has rushed for his second touchdown of the game, powering his way in for a 2-yard touchdown to give Baltimore a 24-13 advantage with 12:50 left in the final period.
The run capped a seven-play, 44-yard drive that took 4:03 off the clock after a Patriots failed fake punt.
Henry now has 128 yards on 18 carries with two TDs.
On fourth-and-10, linebacker Marte Mapu received a direct snap as one of the protectors in the punt formation.
A schedule flex has the New England Patriots back in prime time, as they travel to Maryland to take on the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday Night Football.
Coming off their first loss in 83 days, the team of head coach Mike Vrabel will look bounce back on the road, where they are a perfect 6-0 on the season. A win would clinch a playoff spot for New England, while Lamar Jackson and the 7-7 Ravens are fighting to keep their own postseason hopes alive.

The newest episode of TBMR is out now!
In this episode, Andrew and Arnav talk about Rutgers Men’s basketball’s 70-69 win over Penn, and women’s basketball’s 54-45 win over Lafayette. They break down both games by talking about what each team did well, and the several areas where the Knights struggled. They then move on to discuss Rutgers Football’s new offensive line coach, Jim Turner, who was hired by the team last week.
The NFL’s Christmas slate looked promising on paper when the schedule was released in May, but the reality is much worse. Three games, one surefire playoff team, four eliminated teams, and one team on the brink of elimination.
Update: Lamar Jackson has now been ruled out.
Previously: The Baltimore Ravens need to win their final three games to clinch a playoff spot, starting tonight against the New England Patriots.
But they might have to finish the job against Drake Maye and company with Lamar Jackson watching from the sidelines.
Jackson left the game late in the first half after getting up slowly following a scramble. Tyler Huntley came into the game, and reports from the Baltimore sideline indicated that he was dealing with a back injury.
