MUSIC PLAYS . 16 minutes of footballing right | :00:00. | :00:17. | |
from the start. Touchdown! Unbelievable! The Patriots, the NFL | :00:18. | :00:33. | |
champions. Hello, it's NFL Week 14. And there are plenty of play-off | :00:34. | :00:44. | |
places up for grabs. In the NFC, Carolina are the south division | :00:45. | :00:48. | |

other division leaders. Minnesota and Seattle are our wild cards with | :00:55. | :01:00. | |
Tampa Bay and Atlanta looking on. In Week there was all change, division | :01:01. | :01:06. | |
leaders Denver became the top, looking for a bye on wild card | :01:07. | :01:13. | |
weekend. New England dropped and end plots are the other division leader. | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
The Chiefs occupy the wild card, Pittsburgh, buffalo and Houston away | :01:20. | :01:27. | |
-- await any slip-ups. Of the 32 teams that started the race to bow | :01:28. | :01:33. | |
0, only Cleveland had been eliminating going into Week 14. | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
Jason Bell is here and we begin with two teams from the NFC with | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
everything to two teams from the NFC with | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
everything to play for. You stand six feet five-inches tall, his left | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
knee has been reconstructed twice. His career has had moment of | :01:50. | :01:57. | |
controversy and he will soon be 36. The quarterback Palmer is leading | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
the Cardinals towards the play-offs. Week 14 in their home in Phoenix. | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
The vikings too have a controversial star. Running back Aiden Peterson, | :02:09. | :02:36. | |
with play yachts. We talked last night, and the look in his eye, how | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
stern he was. I asked, "Would you take this out" and he said, "Yes, | :02:41. | :02:46. | |
but blocking on the right sides." Second and one from the nine. And | :02:47. | :02:55. | |
it's Peters. What a run! Peters to the end zone for the touchdown. A | :02:56. | :03:06. | |
little shaken has Mathieson. And that's his 100th career touchdown. | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
Well, he said, "I'm going to be pretty fresh tonight" is what he | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
said last night. He said, "I carried it so little last week." And of | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
course his determination and pride. One side cut two, so he went left, | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
left, back to the right, both tackles. Not only did he have a | :03:26. | :03:32. | |
great series, a lot of credit to the offensive line. They are coming | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
after Palmer, he steps away from the heat. On the line he finds Jonathan | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
Brown. Out of a tackle, is he going to take it to the end zone for the | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
touchdown? There was the speed that you talked before! 65 yards to | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
Jonathan Brown. Here comes the pressure from the right, our left, | :03:54. | :03:59. | |
it's Robinson and Jonathan Brown, couldn't adjust. And you are right, | :04:00. | :04:07. | |
the speed, it's undeniable. The only point of score in the second quarter | :04:08. | :04:14. | |
came from vikings kicker Brad Wahlberg, the 44 yard, tying it at | :04:15. | :04:29. | |
10-10 going into half-time. Vikings kicker Brad Wahlberg, the 44 yard, | :04:30. | :04:31. | |
tying it at 10-10 going into half-time. They were in on Peters, | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
so far he was not able to execute the trick play. Third and eight. | :04:38. | :04:46. | |
Stepping up and winding an open man. And he gets passed the traffic for | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
the touchdown! Larry Fitzgerald throw as block for him and then | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
comes and celebrates. Watch to the right, you can see the other | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
defenders run into the inside. Palmer, look at that, two open | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
uncovered reseveres to the right. Does that say it alaboutlar | :05:07. | :05:10. | |
Fitzgerald. A run game, a pass game, remendus. Palmer now has the Arizona | :05:11. | :05:18. | |
record alone. His 31st touchdown pass of the year. Early in the | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
fourth quarter the Cardinals put together a 16-play drive that | :05:24. | :05:29. | |
stalled in the red zone and ended with 23 yards Chanderpual field | :05:30. | :05:36. | |
goal. The Vikings responded on their next possession with 54-year-old | :05:37. | :05:50. | |
goal from Wahlberg to make it 2013. -- with a 54 yard. A Lordship going | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
inside. La and there is nowhere to go. On the outside that was ant | :05:57. | :06:02. | |
Harris,iesing it in there - just good by Harris. Third and nine. | :06:03. | :06:09. | |
Missed one of those for each side now. Blitz, pass, got to make a move | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
and does! That's back to the inside. And then speeds it up to about the | :06:16. | :06:22. | |
24. Nobody in the middle of the field, here comes the line backers, | :06:23. | :06:31. | |
nobody is underneath. And first and 20. They love these play actions and | :06:32. | :06:46. | |
it's a late release by Lyons and he just lowers ahead and everybody goes | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
for the big hit. Nobody got their arms out. To wrap him up, that's why | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
he rumbled down there for the few extra yards. We have five minutes | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
left in the game. What were they doing? Let's see first though. This | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
pivotal play. doing? Let's see first though. This | :07:03. | :07:14. | |
territory. Third and goal. To the end zone for the touchdown? Mike | :07:15. | :07:22. | |
Wallace. All out blitz. But Ted Shoebridge did a good job. Coming | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
all of the way across the field. Watch, everybody. Blitz and boy you | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
can't just fight your way through it, that's the problem when you are | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
blitzing, and Teddy said it last night, we will have players cross | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
the field and we saw a couple of big plays because of that. From here, | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
they don't gain anything it would be 47 yards. And it's incomplete. There | :07:48. | :07:57. | |
were two Cardinals in the area. Fitzgerald almost came down with it | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
but Nicholas was making a play at the same time. It looked like a | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
little confusion. But this is a play they love. Really didn't know who he | :08:06. | :08:11. | |
was throwing the football to, tolar Fitzgerald. Well, the end completion | :08:12. | :08:21. | |
stops the clock with 128 to go and brings out Canensero. Second year, | :08:22. | :08:29. | |
look at this kid. Dead perfect. Last time the Vikings won a road game, | :08:30. | :08:32. | |
trailing by at least ten in the fourth quarter. Goes all of the way | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
back to 1985 when they beat the Eagles. They were actually trailing | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
23-0 in the fourth quarter that game before winning. This is a team that | :08:42. | :08:46. | |
has won four consecutive on the road. Vikings need about 35 yards to | :08:47. | :08:56. | |
get Blair Wahlberg a chance. They have to go the rest of the way | :08:57. | :09:08. | |
without a time-out. Lsh a chance. They have to go the rest of the way | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
without a time-out. Last week the Vikings watched as Green Bay pulled | :09:13. | :09:20. | |
off the hail Mary at Detroit. You can imagine, they are watching this | :09:21. | :09:27. | |
one. In the north, and suddenly the Vikings are in range, field goal | :09:28. | :09:33. | |
range that is, as Wright makes the catch. You cannot, again, throw it | :09:34. | :09:53. | |
in the field of play. The ball comes out. Was it a pass or a fumble? | :09:54. | :10:01. | |
Ruling on the field is a fumble and recovery by Campese. It was Preeney | :10:02. | :10:08. | |
who hit him. Where has he been all night? He has been resting for just | :10:09. | :10:16. | |
this situation. They all said to me, this Cardinals team, when he gets in | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
the game, he is going to set it up and use the spin move, second time | :10:21. | :10:26. | |
he used it, the second time a charm, causes the fumble. And wins the | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
game. We were trying to throw the ball to the sideline. We told 'em, | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
"Can't complete the ball in bounds because 12, 13 seconds is right at | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
the time that you can spike the ball and get the clock stopped." Would | :10:43. | :10:48. | |
you think strongly of possibly kicking? Yeah, I thought about it. I | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
thought about a lot of things, the ball in the end zone, we were trying | :10:54. | :10:59. | |
to get closer. We are in the play-offs, don't know where or when, | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
but we are in. And we always take great pride in that to win twice | :11:05. | :11:11. | |
against two very physical fronts, I'm pleased with that. Just felt | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
like a weird game, you know, they had all of these guys injured, | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
playing corners at safety and weird stuff, you weren't quite sure what | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
they would get. They couldn't do what they wanted to do and we | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
practised all week. You get to the game, you don't know who is active | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
until last night, you know, or yesterday we found out a bunch of | :11:34. | :11:37. | |
guys are down and you start to prepare for different things. It | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
shows a lot about this team, how well we are coached and prepared. | :11:42. | :11:47. | |
One of the best teams in the NFL right now, what makes them so great? | :11:48. | :11:51. | |
They are good on offense and good on defense. And we will show you why. | :11:52. | :11:59. | |
Palmer, he is my comeback player of the year and I'm going to tell you | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
why right now. He came off of knee injury, bounced back, is playing | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
unbelievable football. I am going to show you what makes a good veteran | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
quarterback. Now, let's pause that right there. You see Palmer, he has | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
got the rush coming on. Let's go to slow motion. As you see, the | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
pressure coming to the outside, he doesn't look at | :12:21. | :12:21. | |
pressure coming to the outside, he doesn't look at the pressure, he | :12:22. | :12:24. | |
feels the pressure. He steps up the field and delivers. That's the key. | :12:25. | :12:27. | |
Young guys would look at the pressure. He doesn't look at it, he | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
delivers the ball to Jonathan Brown and you see the outcome. Whoa John | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
brown running like he stole something just there. And this guy | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
right here. This guy is amazing.lar Fitzgerald. Youngest player to 1,000 | :12:41. | :12:46. | |
receptions. All professional, future Hall of Famer. The one thing that he | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
doesn't have is a championship. Now, as you seize this route up top. | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
These two guys actually messed up and ran the wrong route. As you see | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
this happenlar Fitzgerald, wait until you see this up close. This is | :13:00. | :13:05. | |
what a guy who wants to win a championship does. He leads blocks | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
and he puts this guy on his back. That guy wants a ring. He will do | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
anything to win. No, no, no. He didn't put him on his back. He put | :13:16. | :13:21. | |
him on his knee. You know what the name is for the jersey right here. | :13:22. | :13:24. | |
Watch where he puts this. You don't want your family to see that. No, | :13:25. | :13:29. | |
no. Your parents have to see that. Whoa what a play bylar Fitzgerald. | :13:30. | :13:34. | |
That guy wants to win. He wants to win bad. And now we are going to | :13:35. | :13:39. | |
talk about the pass rush. Now, if you were paying attention last week | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
- I remember saying something like, "In the two minutes that's when | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
games are won and lost in the NFL." True. Watch what happens here. You | :13:48. | :13:55. | |
have the ageless wonder. He has been speed rushing, running up the field, | :13:56. | :14:02. | |
giving it all. What does he do here? Does he speed rush? Oh, no it's the | :14:03. | :14:10. | |
spin move. We didn't know NFL players were ballerinas. Now, he | :14:11. | :14:14. | |
spins with so much force if you watch right here that he actually | :14:15. | :14:19. | |
sends the guy to the ground and not only does he sack the quarterback he | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
knocks the ball out of his hands, creating a turnoverious ending the | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
football game for the Cardinals. Cardinals playing great ball because | :14:30. | :14:32. | |
they are good on offense and they are great on defense. Thank you to | :14:33. | :14:39. | |
you both. Now, if you want to get involved - just use the #race to bow | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
50. If you are new, we are looking to provide some answers. To our | :14:45. | :14:50. | |
first round-up now, with a play-off place assured, Arizona were looking | :14:51. | :14:57. | |
elsewhere to see if they would get their first NFC | :14:58. | :14:58. | |
elsewhere to see if they would get their first NFC Western division | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
title since 2009. Seattle were not playing ball. On Sunday, quarterback | :15:03. | :15:10. | |
Wilson threw five touchdown passes, three to Doug. Extending their | :15:11. | :15:16. | |
winning streak to four and leaving Baltimore wondering what hit 'em. | :15:17. | :15:20. | |
They tightened their grip on a wild card as they eye up to a third | :15:21. | :15:28. | |
straight Super Bowl appearance. Poor Atlanta, they spent a miserable | :15:29. | :15:32. | |
Sunday up against an unbeaten Carolina. Ted hooking up twice early | :15:33. | :15:38. | |
on to help Carolina cruise to 21-0 lead by the end of the first | :15:39. | :15:47. | |
quarter. Touchdown! Finishing out 38-0 wins it seems nobody contained | :15:48. | :15:52. | |
the Panthers who ensured that they are one of the top to seeds and will | :15:53. | :16:03. | |
receive a first Round play-off. New Orleans swept passed the Buccaneers, | :16:04. | :16:09. | |
receiving two touchdown passes. Tampa Bay's ambitions now hang by a | :16:10. | :16:18. | |
thread. Just leave left to play. As well as doing this show every week, | :16:19. | :16:23. | |
we also record a locker room hang-out which goes out online | :16:24. | :16:25. | |
we also record a locker room hang-out which goes out online and | :16:26. | :16:26. | |
previews the upcoming particularures. Last week, there was | :16:27. | :16:34. | |
this. This is the game that the Panthers see their first loss of the | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
year. Atlanta is desperate right now, lost five games in a row. They | :16:40. | :16:44. | |
need this win to keep their slim play-off chances alive. What was | :16:45. | :16:48. | |
that? That's the wrongest I have been in I don't know how long, man. | :16:49. | :16:52. | |
It's a division game. It's the dangers of the job. Sometimes you | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
make a bold prediction. Oh, my God - 38-0. I can't believe I did that. | :16:59. | :17:04. | |
Neither can we. Hence why we brought it up again. I was so confident | :17:05. | :17:07. | |
department too. I was so serious. Really? I was truly believing that | :17:08. | :17:13. | |
Atlanta was going to win that game. I mean, you almost had me | :17:14. | :17:18. | |
second-guessing my decision. NFC, just to focus on that. Really, | :17:19. | :17:24. | |
really strong division between the top team, Cardinals and sea | :17:25. | :17:29. | |
Seahawks. Sowna could win next week. Seattle looking to get a wild card | :17:30. | :17:30. | |
who would you plump for Seattle looking to get a wild card | :17:31. | :17:40. | |
play-offs? Even though I like Arizona Seattle is hot right now. | :17:41. | :17:44. | |
The injury to the running back, that scarce me, putting a guy in there to | :17:45. | :17:47. | |
play that kind of position for them that we don't know. But they are | :17:48. | :17:51. | |
playing really good football right now. Arizona. Seattle are hot team | :17:52. | :17:58. | |
right now, probably playing the best football. That runningback position | :17:59. | :18:03. | |
for them is crushal. The offensive line, they are not able to protect | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
Russell Wilson. If they don't run the football he will get punished. | :18:09. | :18:14. | |
All right, we recorded both of those prodictions and will run them both | :18:15. | :18:20. | |
next week. The Bengals entertain the Steelers. Ngals entertain the | :18:21. | :18:44. | |
Steelers. With Ben rusk rusk back and healthy, they are chasing hard | :18:45. | :18:47. | |
for a wild card and and healthy, they are chasing hard | :18:48. | :18:52. | |
for a wild card and hope to depose Cincinnati at the top. One last look | :18:53. | :19:05. | |
around. Looking down the sideline and throwing in, complete. Markus | :19:06. | :19:09. | |
Wheaton with a catch in the first down. All of the way to the | :19:10. | :19:18. | |
Cincinnati 40. Second and goal. In the back field, this is Williams | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
again. To the end zone for the touchdown. Just the filth rushing | :19:23. | :19:29. | |
touchdown allowed by the Cincinnati defense. Dalton, flips it, has the | :19:30. | :19:36. | |
first down and more. Still on his feet. Inside the ten and out of | :19:37. | :19:41. | |
bounds about the 7 yard line. 23 yard pick-up. With so many offensive | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
weapons on each side, the first meeting between these two was a real | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
anomaly. Well, both teams went down and scored on the first possession | :19:51. | :19:56. | |
of the game. As you said, Greg, it finished up 16-10. Bengals are in a | :19:57. | :20:01. | |
position to score their first time. A few kinds of adjustments for the | :20:02. | :20:08. | |
defense to make. Short passes, intercepted. Number 91 the defense. | :20:09. | :20:18. | |
And Andy Dalton taking a walk. It looks like to the locker room. They | :20:19. | :20:22. | |
were looking at the thumb on his throwing hand and we will see if he | :20:23. | :20:30. | |
returns shortly, if not, AJ McCarron the lucky quarterback will be on | :20:31. | :20:35. | |
deck. In the second quarter the Steelers went on 13-play drive, | :20:36. | :20:41. | |
ending with 42 yard field goal to make it 10-0. Boss boss added | :20:42. | :20:47. | |
another three points on the next possession kicking over from 47 | :20:48. | :20:53. | |
yards to make it 13-0. Andy Dalton we see there out for the game with | :20:54. | :20:58. | |
that thumb injury. AJ McCarron, for the time being is going through the | :20:59. | :21:04. | |
concussion protocol. On to the field is AJ McCarron. His Neville life is | :21:05. | :21:09. | |
three completions and four attempts, fifth round pick last year in the | :21:10. | :21:15. | |
2014 craft draft. Looks like his team for the rest of the way. | :21:16. | :21:24. | |
Shaking off two tacklers and he has got the touchdown! You don't have to | :21:25. | :21:33. | |
be real complicated with your calling, you have one-on-one on the | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
outside. A March March -- AJ McCarron throwing it down the | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
sideline,blying Blake. Mitchell coming over the top to try and help. | :21:43. | :21:50. | |
AJ McCarron's first NFL touchdown pass is a tendy 66 yards. Two | :21:51. | :21:56. | |
Steelers' possessions later, the third field goal of the game from 45 | :21:57. | :22:03. | |
yards out to make it 16-7 going into the half-time. Intercepted. | :22:04. | :22:23. | |
Touchdown. Pittsburgh. That is Gay's sixth career interception return | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
touch Thursday night, that ties in with Rod for the all-time lead. | :22:28. | :22:36. | |
Tremendous job by Gai understanding what was going to happen on this | :22:37. | :22:45. | |
play. We have a penalty marker on the field, here's John Perry. Ere's | :22:46. | :23:06. | |
John Perry. The Steelers hit back with yet another field goal to | :23:07. | :23:11. | |
restore their 16-point lead going into the fourth quarter. I see | :23:12. | :23:16. | |
another pass play coming here. If they don't make it, this is a time | :23:17. | :23:21. | |
of the game that you have to go forward on forward. McCarron running | :23:22. | :23:28. | |
out of time. Trying to get a way in. He goes down to the 9 yard line. | :23:29. | :23:37. | |
Cameron Heyward with the stop. And here comes the field goal unit. I | :23:38. | :23:43. | |
got to question this a little bit. Looks like they are bringing the | :23:44. | :23:47. | |
field goal unit out. Instead of staying in the pocket, working | :23:48. | :23:50. | |
through your progressions, you could see that you are not completely | :23:51. | :23:55. | |
comfortable with it you are going 1/2 and trying to make something | :23:56. | :23:58. | |
happen. You saw him try to step up in the pocket. That's the attempt at | :23:59. | :24:04. | |
field goal. Down 16, they will go for three and get it. Because of the | :24:05. | :24:09. | |
injuries in the secondary the Bengals had, it was going to be hard | :24:10. | :24:13. | |
to cover all of the guys. As you can see by the production you just said, | :24:14. | :24:17. | |
they have had a hard time today. Hard to cover 'em all when you are | :24:18. | :24:23. | |
healthy. Second and fourth. Got rid of it. Down the far sideline. | :24:24. | :24:39. | |
Intercepted! Reggie Nelson, the NFL's interception leader. And that | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
will be number eight on the season. Under pressure that time. We talked | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
of giving the time to work through the progressions but under heat. How | :24:50. | :24:53. | |
to get rid of the ball. Nelson came over. So the line of scrummage back | :24:54. | :24:59. | |
to the 18 yard line and first and 20. And the clock moving five and a | :25:00. | :25:14. | |
half to play. McCarron, intercepted. Kicked off by Golden. Golden back | :25:15. | :25:20. | |
inside the 20 yard line. Third interception today by the Steelers, | :25:21. | :25:24. | |
the second off of McCarron. Karen just with the overthrow as Golden's | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
able to get the key interception here late in the fourth quart. With | :25:30. | :25:36. | |
5:14 to play in regulation, the Steelers looking to play this one | :25:37. | :25:42. | |
out right here. Williams to the end zone for the touchdown. His second | :25:43. | :25:48. | |
touchdown run of the day and his eight of the season. First and goal. | :25:49. | :26:00. | |
McCarron throwing. Caught for the touchdown by Rex Burkhead. He has | :26:01. | :26:05. | |
shown nice signs today, it will be interesting to see how he shows up | :26:06. | :26:10. | |
for his next outing with a full week's worth of work. That's | :26:11. | :26:14. | |
football right there. It's good to be in the significant ones, good to | :26:15. | :26:19. | |
come out on top. The bottom line is to score one more point each and | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
every Sunday or when ever we play. That's our mentality. Got some | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
positive news based on the quarterback today, we will continue | :26:29. | :26:34. | |
as is, he will be in the cast and basically we will go week to week | :26:35. | :26:38. | |
with things. He won't play this week. As we move forward we will see | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
how he is up and every week. It will be up to Andy and the doctors. It's | :26:43. | :26:46. | |
unfortunate that of it happened at this point in the time in the | :26:47. | :26:50. | |
season. I will get back as quickly as I can to help this team. There is | :26:51. | :26:53. | |
people that are way worse off as I can to help this team. There is | :26:54. | :26:55. | |
people that are way worse off than I am. We spoke before about being | :26:56. | :27:03. | |
pessimistic and fatalstic. Even they must be slightly surprised at 9 fact | :27:04. | :27:08. | |
that they lose their quarterback to an interception of his own. I'm | :27:09. | :27:12. | |
worried of Cincinnati. They could overcome injuries on the defensive | :27:13. | :27:16. | |
side. Guys can step up. When your quarterback goes down at this time | :27:17. | :27:20. | |
of the year. On the road to the play-offs it's hard to bounce back | :27:21. | :27:25. | |
from that. But they have the 49'ers to come and Broncos. Steelers 8-5. | :27:26. | :27:30. | |
They are going to have enough to get into the play-offs aren't they? You | :27:31. | :27:35. | |
would hope so. But that quarterback now, the back-up, went to Alabama | :27:36. | :27:38. | |
and that is a problem. Why is it a problem? Why? Because no quarterback | :27:39. | :27:44. | |
from the University of Alabama has won a game in 27 years in the NFL, I | :27:45. | :27:48. | |
don't think it's going to happen this week. You don't think that they | :27:49. | :27:52. | |
can beat San Francisco? I don't think so. You can't go against | :27:53. | :27:57. | |
history. They will still think that they can catch the bangles. More | :27:58. | :28:02. | |
action from the AFC as second round-up starts with New England. | :28:03. | :28:06. | |
They had a play-off place within their grasp. Pop returning from | :28:07. | :28:16. | |
injury to help New England Patriots to an easy victory over Houston | :28:17. | :28:23. | |
Texas. A two game losing streak to guarantee New England. Indianapolis | :28:24. | :28:32. | |
do not take advantage of the misfortune to meet Jacksonville. | :28:33. | :28:37. | |
Rash Green started a route that let's 28 unanswered second half | :28:38. | :28:46. | |
points. Jacksonville move within one game of the division leader. In the | :28:47. | :28:54. | |
AFC west Denver failed in their attempt to secure the division when | :28:55. | :29:04. | |
they went down at home. Maxwell went over five times and Oakland's | :29:05. | :29:08. | |
Michael caught the winning touchdown. The New York Jets | :29:09. | :29:16. | |
retained their wild card with a regulation win. Ryan Fitzgerald | :29:17. | :29:22. | |
threw three touchdown passes to Marsh on this 49 yard effort. Into | :29:23. | :29:27. | |
the end zone for a touchdown. What a play! Kansas extended their winning | :29:28. | :29:35. | |
streak to seven maintaining their lead in the wild card race. Wilson | :29:36. | :29:44. | |
grabbed the game's only touchdown as they disposed of San Diego in a | :29:45. | :29:51. | |
tight defensive game. That will do it, the game is over! Indianapolis | :29:52. | :30:00. | |
six and seven, Houston six and seven. They meet next week. Does the | :30:01. | :30:04. | |
winner of that win the division? I think so. Division isn't playing | :30:05. | :30:10. | |
well right now. Those two teams coming off of losses. I think | :30:11. | :30:15. | |
Indianapolis will win the game. They both got problems at quarterback. We | :30:16. | :30:19. | |
don't know who will be out there. I got to go with Houston. I think they | :30:20. | :30:22. | |
will step it up and make of it happen. When you look at the Broncos | :30:23. | :30:28. | |
and the defeat to Raiders how damaging could that be considering | :30:29. | :30:31. | |
that they have got the Steelers and bangles to play over the next couple | :30:32. | :30:34. | |
of weeks? Because it's tight between the three of them when you look at | :30:35. | :30:40. | |
it, wild cards and division win. They have got a tough run ahead of | :30:41. | :30:46. | |
'em. Now this is a good reason to squeeze. They are tight games. They | :30:47. | :30:52. | |
have to get an excuse. Do you think a little bit, I mean, they won't | :30:53. | :30:58. | |
have wanted to have lost. Do you think they will be looking for an | :30:59. | :31:04. | |
excuse? Yeah, I mean, Payton wasn't playing well. He is not bad enough | :31:05. | :31:09. | |
to sit him for the rest of the season like everybody said that they | :31:10. | :31:12. | |
should. How could you do that? We are talking one of the best | :31:13. | :31:15. | |
quarterbacks in history. This is when you need 'em right now. This is | :31:16. | :31:19. | |
why you got 'em. He is the guy to take you deep into the play-offs. | :31:20. | :31:25. | |
Exactly. Now, this week we visited Green Bay for the match-up with the | :31:26. | :31:30. | |
Cowboys and a repeat from 1967. Dallas is still in with a chance of | :31:31. | :31:36. | |
making the play-offs. They have to beat a resurging pack, still what is | :31:37. | :31:41. | |
canning in the glory of the hail Mary win from last week. They have a | :31:42. | :31:47. | |
history of that sort of thing. December 1967 versus Dallas, the NFL | :31:48. | :31:52. | |
championship. Anybody who has the idea that just the play, to take | :31:53. | :31:56. | |
part is all that's necessary is in the wrong business. I think he is in | :31:57. | :31:59. | |
the wrong country. One of the things that made America great is to try to | :32:00. | :32:03. | |
be the best in everything that they do. And the best again is signified | :32:04. | :32:17. | |
by winning. The small city of Green Bay, home of the Packers, the only | :32:18. | :32:23. | |
community-owned team in the NFL. It's a very unique franchise. | :32:24. | :32:28. | |
370,000 shareholders. We sold out every game since the early 1960s and | :32:29. | :32:35. | |
we have a waiting list up to 129,000 for season ticket holders. It is a | :32:36. | :32:43. | |
unique place. It's a little town up in the north-east and 150,000 | :32:44. | :32:52. | |
people. And they take on teams from New York, Chicago, and the neat part | :32:53. | :32:57. | |
about it is that they usually beat 'em. We all get-together, about six | :32:58. | :33:04. | |
families, we meet at his house, we go to church on Sunday morning, come | :33:05. | :33:08. | |
home and get ready for the game. And we do that every year. | :33:09. | :33:10. | |
CHEERING . The far north, bleak at this time | :33:11. | :33:18. | |
of the year. But Green Bay is warmly known as title town. The Green Bay | :33:19. | :33:24. | |
Packers are the most successful team in NFL history. I think the | :33:25. | :33:28. | |
advantage that we have is our great history and tradition. If you walk | :33:29. | :33:32. | |
through the player area you see all kinds of pictures of passed | :33:33. | :33:34. | |
championship teams, great players and coaches so that the players know | :33:35. | :33:39. | |
that they are part of something bigger than just themselves. As a | :33:40. | :33:44. | |
special place to be a part of this organisation in this fan base is | :33:45. | :33:50. | |
unbelievable. We won more World Championships than any other team | :33:51. | :33:51. | |
with 13. We are hoping Championships than any other team | :33:52. | :33:54. | |
with 13. We are hoping to get another one soon. Wrong wrong, it's | :33:55. | :34:00. | |
going to get there. He turned 32 yesterday. Does he have a finishing | :34:01. | :34:06. | |
moment in him? In the end zone! For the win! A game in there for the | :34:07. | :34:12. | |
Packers. They have got a chance. Any time you go to around wrong wrong at | :34:13. | :34:17. | |
quarterback they have got a chance. They are going to have to play | :34:18. | :34:21. | |
better than what they played the last couple of weeks. Ot a chance. | :34:22. | :34:45. | |
They are going to have to play better than what they played the | :34:46. | :34:48. | |
last couple of weeks. -- Aaron Rogers. Off the hands of Brian into | :34:49. | :34:56. | |
the hands of Sam Shields. Good work by this Packers defense. Still no | :34:57. | :35:05. | |
score. Now third down and four, out of the back field. Good throw. | :35:06. | :35:18. | |
Touchdown! Expecting man coverage. And then they outflanked him. And | :35:19. | :35:22. | |
you have got DL Lang leagued the way. Once he is able to get outside, | :35:23. | :35:29. | |
an outstanding job. Good call for the touchdown. Sam Shields has gone | :35:30. | :35:37. | |
in to get looked at. It could be a big loss for the Packers. Now they | :35:38. | :35:56. | |
got the rookie in the slot. Look at the crowd he attracted in the | :35:57. | :35:59. | |
secondary? Looked like the ball might have hit the ground right at | :36:00. | :36:02. | |
the very end of this, Joe. Maybe there - I think that's going to be | :36:03. | :36:06. | |
incomplete. It's a Green Bay challenge. The ruling on the field | :36:07. | :36:17. | |
has been changed. So no catch for Des Bryant pint. And instead of the | :36:18. | :36:29. | |
29 yarder it's fourth down. Touchdown Rogers! That hero in | :36:30. | :36:37. | |
Detroit last Thursday night has made it 13-0. Play action makes things | :36:38. | :36:42. | |
awful tough for defense. You overplay the run, trying to stop it. | :36:43. | :36:48. | |
You get Rogers then into the end zone for another touchdown and | :36:49. | :36:59. | |
consecutive weeks. Here's a little toss to fad fad over the left side. | :37:00. | :37:13. | |
Another big one down near the 30. McFadden over the left side. Another | :37:14. | :37:16. | |
big one down near the 30. -- McFadden. It opened up a lane then | :37:17. | :37:25. | |
for Darren McFadden. Keeping up almost stride for stride with him | :37:26. | :37:34. | |
too. Touchdown barely touched. And the Cowboys are back in it. | :37:35. | :38:08. | |
Touchdown Green Bay. 78 rush yards, the last 30 right here for James. | :38:09. | :38:14. | |
You see the centre, number 73, does a good job and then the move that | :38:15. | :38:19. | |
Stark's moves. He has been doing it throughout the game. Inside, | :38:20. | :38:25. | |
blocking in the run game and what a great run, great execution by that | :38:26. | :38:29. | |
offensive line. They were good throughout that drive. Fourth and | :38:30. | :38:43. | |
five. Quick throw, incomplete for McFadden. And the Cowboys will turn | :38:44. | :38:59. | |
it over. He has got a touchdown. We talked about the Seahawks as z a | :39:00. | :39:02. | |
team with experience, they start to hit their stride. I know this is one | :39:03. | :39:06. | |
game. This is a team that not a lot of people want to face either with | :39:07. | :39:11. | |
the experience they have playing in some big games. It's fantastic. It's | :39:12. | :39:16. | |
the greatest feeling in the world. You can see it during the game, you | :39:17. | :39:26. | |
saw the way, best fans in football. It's an incredible place to play, | :39:27. | :39:30. | |
incredible organisation to be a part of. To be able to pick up a win like | :39:31. | :39:35. | |
we did tonight is huge for our fan base. I think the weather we have | :39:36. | :39:40. | |
been having up here, a great job to keep that in shape. Hell, 50 degrees | :39:41. | :39:45. | |
for a December game, I think that's playing with the | :39:46. | :39:45. | |
for a December game, I think that's playing with the lead right there. | :39:46. | :39:50. | |
That was great. I would take that over snow any day. The teams that | :39:51. | :39:55. | |
really start to hit their stride going into the play-offs tend to | :39:56. | :39:58. | |
fair very well. We have three weeks left. We got to take care of | :39:59. | :40:03. | |
business. No means have we qualified for the play-offs yet. Hopefully, we | :40:04. | :40:10. | |
can keep it in our stride. I have got to throw a shout-out to Spurs, | :40:11. | :40:15. | |
thank you for watching us. We'll keep trying to play well. Probably | :40:16. | :40:21. | |
not the shout-out to Spurs after they were beaten by Newcastle. | :40:22. | :40:26. | |
Moving swiftly on. Do you agree that they are hitting their straps and | :40:27. | :40:29. | |
the momentum such as it is in sport is with them? They are back to | :40:30. | :40:34. | |
running the ball. And you got to do that right now, because that's going | :40:35. | :40:37. | |
to prepare you for the play-offs, you got to run the ball and in bad | :40:38. | :40:41. | |
weather. There is a big change, we spoke about this, the coach called | :40:42. | :40:45. | |
the players in that game. He hadn't been doing that earlier in the | :40:46. | :40:50. | |
season. Absolutely. This is a guy who has his finger on the pulse of | :40:51. | :40:55. | |
the team. Always had on the Green Bay Packers. They are running the | :40:56. | :40:59. | |
ball a lot more, it's December like Jason said - you have to be able to | :41:00. | :41:02. | |
pound the football in there. That's why they are winning games right | :41:03. | :41:05. | |
now. And the weather there - once we are into the latter part of the | :41:06. | :41:09. | |
season, that will make a big difference. You must both have | :41:10. | :41:13. | |
experienced it. Yeah, it's hard to hold the ball, they can't throw the | :41:14. | :41:16. | |
same. You got to be able to play in that weather and you have to be able | :41:17. | :41:22. | |
to run the ball. 300 pounds running back, Eddie running downhill at you. | :41:23. | :41:25. | |
Nobody wants to tackle that guy, man. Nobody. And you would also back | :41:26. | :41:31. | |
the experience of Rogers over maybe the inexperience, if you are looking | :41:32. | :41:37. | |
at the Vikings and Packers. True. Like you said, with Mike Carter | :41:38. | :41:40. | |
calling the players, the commentistry is back. He has done it | :41:41. | :41:46. | |
before in the play-offs. Time to roundup the NFC east, Dallas left | :41:47. | :41:49. | |
the door open for the other three teams to make their mark. We start | :41:50. | :41:52. | |
with Monday night football where teams to make their mark. We start | :41:53. | :41:55. | |
with Monday night football where the Dolphins entertain Giants. Miami | :41:56. | :42:01. | |
were eliminated from play-off contention. First catching a | :42:02. | :42:08. | |
controversial 6 yard pass originally called incomplete and overcalled to | :42:09. | :42:12. | |
tie the scores in the third quarter. No doubting this game winner, | :42:13. | :42:16. | |
however. 84 yard for the score and leaving the New York Giants in a | :42:17. | :42:21. | |
three-way tie for first place and handing the New England Patriots | :42:22. | :42:31. | |
their 7th consecutive east title. On Sunday the Eagles scraped a win | :42:32. | :42:36. | |
against the Bills after going toe-to-toe all afternoon it was an | :42:37. | :42:40. | |
Ed Reynolds interception in the final minute that sealed the game | :42:41. | :42:44. | |
for the homeside and kept it in the mix for the division. What a | :42:45. | :42:49. | |
two-week turn around it has been for the Eagles going for a second | :42:50. | :42:53. | |
straight Sunday. And Washington completed a three-way tie as they | :42:54. | :43:00. | |
outlasted Chicago in the wind city. Although they will be thanking Rob | :43:01. | :43:06. | |
Golden who missed a 50 yard to tie the game inside the final two | :43:07. | :43:18. | |
minutes. I love that, you trying to put enthusiasm into your voice with | :43:19. | :43:22. | |
the Washington win. Have they surprised you this season? They are | :43:23. | :43:26. | |
stip topping it even though they are six and seven? No doubt about that. | :43:27. | :43:32. | |
I first said that they would bench Robbie. Kurt has always been up and | :43:33. | :43:36. | |
down. He doesn't always play well all of the time. I thought that they | :43:37. | :43:40. | |
would be done. Playing the way they have been playing so far, | :43:41. | :43:45. | |
unbelievable. How do you view the bigger pictures with the Giants, | :43:46. | :43:49. | |
Eagles, all six and seven? I'm still running with the Giants. I thought | :43:50. | :43:53. | |
you might. They have the best quarterback. And late in the season, | :43:54. | :43:57. | |
on your way to the play-offs that's what you need - you have a guy out | :43:58. | :44:01. | |
there making the throws. That's what we talked a lot about tonight - that | :44:02. | :44:07. | |
experience and momentum. And it's the experience of Manning and the | :44:08. | :44:11. | |
flare of Beckham Junior that means that you put them ahead of the | :44:12. | :44:15. | |
other? Absolutely the experience. The Giants have been through this so | :44:16. | :44:19. | |
many times before. They have been in this situation when I was there on | :44:20. | :44:22. | |
numerous occasions and they always found a way too come through. I | :44:23. | :44:25. | |
don't think it will be any different this year. Their quarterback is a | :44:26. | :44:31. | |
great quarterback and they have not a rookie but in the second year. If | :44:32. | :44:38. | |
all their games finished with a minute and a half left on the clock | :44:39. | :44:43. | |
in the fourth quarter they would be 10-2 going into the Miami game. This | :44:44. | :44:46. | |
would be a whole differentn't conversation wouldn't it. Yeah. I am | :44:47. | :44:51. | |
concerned of their defense. Offensively they can make of it | :44:52. | :44:55. | |
happen with what Manning is doing this now. I don't know who their | :44:56. | :44:59. | |
line backers are. I don't know if they are able to hold up. They have | :45:00. | :45:03. | |
a fallibility in the last 90 seconds. They do. This is a good | :45:04. | :45:08. | |
football team. Like you said, they should be 11-2 right now. They are | :45:09. | :45:14. | |
not because the game is 60 minutes not 48 and 30 seconds. Let's roundup | :45:15. | :45:20. | |
the sights and sounds that you may have missed from Round are-week 14. | :45:21. | :45:32. | |
-- from Week 14. One point or 20 points, babe yeefl. That's what | :45:33. | :45:40. | |
we're talking about. This one is for you, man. | :45:41. | :45:43. | |
CHEERING . Coach, you get two days off next | :45:44. | :45:53. | |
week. I can't be prouder of a group of guys. We need some music playing | :45:54. | :46:00. | |
soon, I want to see you guys dance. All right, let's get a break. So as | :46:01. | :46:10. | |
we round out-week 14 in the NFC, Carolina won, Arizona are in, having | :46:11. | :46:15. | |
claimed at least a wild card. Green Bay are now a game ahead in the | :46:16. | :46:19. | |
north. And Washington narrowly head the east as the other division | :46:20. | :46:21. | |
leaders. The Seahawks and the the east as the other division | :46:22. | :46:25. | |
leaders. The Seahawks and the minutes Vikings are the two wild | :46:26. | :46:31. | |
cards. Headed by Tampa Bay, deright and San Francisco now officially | :46:32. | :46:39. | |
out. Other in the AFC new-grand are champions, regaining their position | :46:40. | :46:43. | |
-- New England. And Indianapolis complete the division leaders. | :46:44. | :46:47. | |
Kansas City and the New York Jets are in the wild card slots but | :46:48. | :46:53. | |
Pittsburgh are knocking on the door. Cincinnati north to the north | :46:54. | :46:59. | |
division crown. San Diego, Baltimore, | :47:00. | :46:59. | |
Cincinnati north to the north division crown. San Diego, | :47:00. | :47:00. | |
Baltimore, Miami, are all out of contention. Let's finish with a | :47:01. | :47:05. | |
little bit of social media. I'm going to do the NFL rookie one | :47:06. | :47:10. | |
here." Probably a daft question - what's the average time taken to | :47:11. | :47:16. | |
complete an NFL game"? No such thing as a daft question. We encourage | :47:17. | :47:23. | |
any. Three hours usually, depending on how many commercials. If you are | :47:24. | :47:32. | |
a Giants fan don't have a go at me please. Just a couple of pictures. | :47:33. | :47:36. | |
The second oldest coach in the NFL has climbed up on the lockers to | :47:37. | :47:40. | |
celebrate their win. I have no idea what he is doing? I hope he has got | :47:41. | :47:47. | |
good insurance. Locker survey. Thank you very much to to both of you yet | :47:48. | :47:52. | |
again. Another week gone. Week 14 wrapped up, just three games to the | :47:53. | :48:00. | |
end of the regular season. Mike Carlson will be on from 7:30 on | :48:01. | :48:07. | |
Sunday. The game kicks off at 9:00. From all of us, goodbye. The regular | :48:08. | :48:13. | |
season is not without its irregularities, the whole business | :48:14. | :48:17. | |
of the NFL comes with a complication of two conferences - eight | :48:18. | :48:23. | |
divisions, winners, wild cards, justling to make progress, to make | :48:24. | :48:28. | |
the play-offs. The whole process comes with stress, strain and pain. | :48:29. | :48:34. | |
The Broncos, the Bengals, and recoveries. The New England | :48:35. | :48:39. | |
Patriots, it can be a rare old scrambling. Or it can be simplicity | :48:40. | :48:44. | |
in itself. There is nothing more straightforward than winning, time | :48:45. | :48:48. | |
after time, the Panthers staying on the road. It is a Panthers win. For | :48:49. | :48:54. | |
most, it remains a complex drama. Next week, more twists and turns in | :48:55. | :48:56. | |
the race to Super Bowl 50. | :48:57. | :49:03. |
