With the season on the line, the Detroit Lions came up with a good call, maybe the best of the year--a 51-yard TD pass to TE Brock Wright on 4th-and-inches that beat the Jets 20-17. Dal Prescott's pick-6 was bad for the Cowboys. They lost to the Jags in OT 30-24 on the tipped-ball INT. On their way to OT, the Patriots lost to the Raiders by that same score when Jakobi Meyers took a lateral and inexplicably threw the ball backward 20 yards to Las Vegas's Charlie Jones who returned it 48 yards to end the game--the ugliest play of the year by far.
On the GridCard, Teunesto (42) put up a TallBoy to earn King of the Mountain. It was the first KOTM for Teunesto who edged out two other TBs Ricco1947 (41) and Jeep Lover 2 (41).

The Team GridCard regular season came to a close and the playoffs are set. Team Collins beat VBar 78-80 and secured the top seed over Team Detwiler who defeated TMac 73-59. The PGT was the best of the week, Teunesto (42) and Ricco1947 (41), scoring and drubbing the OG 83-57. Fictionasy came up just short of VBar for the playoffs when they lost to LFL 67-64.
