If Las Vegas Raiders interim coach Antonio Pierce didn’t have the attention of team owner Mark Davis prior to the team’s Week 16 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs, he certainly has it now after leading the franchise to 20-14 victory against the reigning Super Bowl champs on Monday.
With the win, Pierce improved to 4-3 in his limited tenure with the franchise. Sunday’s victory also sparked a list of Pierce’s former teammates and players calling for him to be considered for the head coaching job permanently.

(AP) — A season that started with high expectations, visions of an explosive offense and a dominant defense and hopes of another trip to the playoffs has ended for the New York Giants. The Giants (5-10) were eliminated from the postseason with their 33-25 loss at Philadelphia. New York’s 2-8 start certainly didn’t help, even though undrafted free agent quarterback Tommy DeVito gave to the team a flicker of hope by leading it on a late three-game winning streak.

The New York Jets showed no interest in bringing in Joe Flacco earlier this season. But he’s not sweating it.
“Is what it is,” Flacco said, via The Athletic‘s Zac Jackson. “Happy to be where I am, for sure. Lots of guys in that locker room I respect. . . . The only reason it crossed my mind is because people asked me, ‘Hey, are the Jets gonna call you?’”
