The struggling Kansas City Chiefs, who have lost four of their last six games, appeared to be unraveling as a team during a Week 17 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals.
After the Bengals took a 17–7 lead on a Jake Browning one-yard touchdown run, Kansas City defenders Willie Gay and Charles Omenihu came off the field arguing with each other.
Gay, who needed to be restrained by teammates, eventually needed to be calmed down by Chiefs defensive leader Chris Jones.

After this game, John Harbaugh went nuts.
And not just nuts, but happy nuts.
Like, dancing, lit, and happy nuts.

Road To Super Bowl Goes Through Ravens
That’s what a head coach does when he’s got the best team in the NFL. That’s how it is when the road to the Super Bowl goes through Baltimore.
This was the Baltimore Ravens not only earning the No. 1 seed and home field advantage in the coming playoffs but doing it while using all sorts of exclamation points to state their case.

This is the time of year when lost and wandering NFL teams begin to covet a piece of what they are not: innovative, stable and with a forward direction. When it comes to hiring a coach or a general manager, this normally materializes in the direct pilfering of organizations that exude these qualities, instead of the search for those who are capable of doing it outside the confines of places such as San Francisco, Philadelphia or Baltimore, for example.

The Dallas Cowboys caught multiple breaks during New Year’s Eve weekend.
First, there was the messy he said-he said situation between the Detroit Lions and referee Brad Allen that led to the Lions’ potential game-winning two-point conversion nullified, which preserved the Cowboys’ 20–19 victory Saturday night.
The gifts continued for the Cowboys after the Philadelphia Eagles surprisingly fell to the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, opening an opportunity for Dallas to steal the NFC East next week. The Eagles have played so poorly that they might be one-and-done in the postseason.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase is not shy when it comes to trash talk. Prior to the matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs, the media asked him what stands out about the Chiefs defense. Chase said “nothing” and then added that it’s not like they “have a Jalen Ramsey.” That’s a clear shot at Chiefs cornerback L’Jarius Sneed.
Many consider Sneed to be a top-level cornerback in the NFL. Pro Football Focus agrees more with Chase, rating Sneed just outside the Top 30 among cornerbacks.

Fresh off a 27–10 win over the Washington Commanders in Week 17, the San Francisco 49ers found something more gleeful to celebrate: Their conference rivals’ downfall.
On Sunday, Deebo Samuel, George Kittle, and a few other 49ers players shared a hilarious behind-the-scenes moment with San Francisco Chronicle columnist Michael Silver at the Philadelphia Eagles’ expense. After taking care of business against Washington, the 49ers gathered outside the locker room around Silver, who was live-streaming a clip of the Arizona Cardinals scoring against the Eagles on his phone.

Any college football program looking to troll their upcoming opponents better take notes from the Liberty Flames.
The little-known Conference USA champions from Lynchburg, VA will face the Oregon Ducks in the Fiesta Bowl tomorrow at 1 p.m. Liberty enters the game as 18-point underdogs to the Pac-12 runners-up, who happen to be one of the most complete teams in college football. Naturally, the top Group of 5 team faces the biggest challenge in its 50-year history to date.
But if you think the Flames are scared of the task ahead, think again.

The Buffalo Bills defeated the New England Patriots, 27–21, in Week 17. That gave the Patriots their 12th loss of the season, while the Bills earned win No. 10 for the season. 
Despite the close game, the Bills’ social media team couldn’t resist taking a dig at their AFC East rivals for the final day of 2023 with a popular internet meme. Ben Affleck deriving deep relief from a cigarette on his front porch embodied the Patriots’ difficult 2023-24 season.

Miami quarterback Tua Tagovailoa left Sunday’s 56-19 loss to the Baltimore Ravens with a shoulder injury and did not return, one of multiple Dolphins starters who suffered injuries in a game coach Mike McDaniel’s team once lead 7-0.

The 49ers clinched the NFC’s No. 1 overall seed after beating the Commanders and getting help from the Cardinals and Cowboys, who beat the Eagles and Lions, respectively.
