![]() The Indianapolis Colts moved above Houston in the AFC South after a 27-20 success over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers made it three wins in a row - with former rushing champion Jonathan Taylor scoring twice as he starts to find his best form just in time for a play-off push. With 304 yards, two passing touchdowns and one rushing score, Stroud is still putting together one of the great rookie seasons, but at 6-5 the Texans dropped to third in the division, just outside the play-off places. Rookie CJ Stroud was excellent again with three total touchdowns for Houston but Trevor Lawrence just about got the job done as the Jaguars earned a vital win against their divisional rivals and moved to 8-3 to sit right in among the race for top seeds in the AFC. With seven straight one-score games, the Houston Texans are always a good watch, but they were on the wrong end of one as Matt Amendola's late kick hit the crossbar to give the Jacksonville Jaguars a 24-21 victory. Jaguars challenging for AFC top spot Trevor Lawrence (L) and CJ Stroud (R) could be rivals for years But with so much work to do, the Patriots look unlikely at this stage to trust him with either next season. What makes it especially difficult is the fact Belichick has so much control of the team - he is also the general manager so is in charge of recruitment as well as coaching. ![]() With the season gone and the team in disarray, the Patriots will already be looking at next season, but whether the man who led them to their six Super Bowl titles is still the man for the job is the huge question owner Robert Kraft has to answer. There's no respite for Bill Belichick, whose once-mighty Patriots now have the league's second-worst record at 2-9 after kicker Chad Ryland missed a simple 35-yard field goal at the finish - handing the New York Giants just their fourth win of the season with a turgid 10-7 victory.īelichick again had to bench starting quarterback Mac Jones during a game after two first-half interceptions, and replacement Bailey Zappe was not that much better as they got outplayed by undrafted Giants rookie Tommy Devito, who famously still lives at home with his parents. Holland's stunning 99-yard touchdown helps Dolphins beat Jets.To get back to Vegas for the big game, though, the Chiefs will likely have to go through the Baltimore Ravens, who own the AFC's best record at 9-3 after they took care of the Los Angeles Chargers 20-10 in the late game. Mahomes and his side will hope that's a good sign. The Chiefs fell 14-0 behind at the Las Vegas Raiders but came roaring back to a 31-17 victory in the stadium that will host the Super Bowl in February. That mentality will be tested next week as they face a showdown with the San Francisco 49ers. ![]() "By any means we will find a way, that's just the mentality we have," said Hurts after a win that encapsulates Philadelphia's season - not always firing, while making plenty of mistakes, but nearly always finding a way to win. Josh Allen had an incredible game but still has not managed to win an overtime game At 6-6, the Bills are up against it - especially as they next visit the Chiefs after a bye. The Eagles have now been behind at half-time in their past four games, but have won them all - with the latest victory coming after a fourth-quarter burst from Hurts and a big 59-yard kick from Jake Elliott 20 seconds from the end forced overtime.īuffalo dominated for the majority of the game with Allen playing out of his skin - but his one interception proved crucial as Hurts turned it into the second of two quick scores that turned the game in their favour.Īllen also missed a throw into the end zone that could have won the game - and for all his brilliance, he now has an 0-6 record in overtime games.
