10. Rams @ Panthers (NFC Wild Card): What was expected to be a blowout turned into a competitive game. Coker had us coked out when Young completed a pass late in the fourth to him in the back of the endzone to take a 31-27 lead. However, the Panthers defense folded and Stafford threw what would be the game winning pass to Parkinson (an incredible catch). The moment was too much for Bryce Young and the receivers, whose drops and panic could not allow for a comeback. Oh yeah, and DeVantae Adams got smacked so hard his tongue was bleeding.

9. Chiefs @ Jaguars (Week 5): Does anyone remember this epic? Mahomes made some absolutely incredible plays to Kelce, but this was the Jaguars game. Devon Lloyd’s 99-yd Pick Six changed the momentum, but it was heroics from Lawrence that saved the game. An incredible third-down conversion to Travis Hunter dazzled viewers, while Lawrence, who tripped on the goalline, got up stumbling, and ran it into a TD, all while Chris Jones watched without effort (ultimately summarizing the chiefs season). Four lead changes in the final quarter to top it.

8. Rams @ Eagles (Week 3): A classic on an early Sunday afternoon… uh, yes please. Stafford and the Rams offense dominated Philly in the first half after a quick Baun interception spotted Philly 7. Despite their red zone defense holding strong, it looked like the Eagles were dead in the water. However, down 26-7, the Eagles passing game exploded. AJ Brown with over 100 2nd-half yards, and Hurts with 4 third-down/fourth-down conversions gave the Eagles a 1-point lead. Jordan Davis blocks the game-winning kick (following Jalen Carter’s block 2 dives earlier), completing the first NFL game with 2 blocked Field Goals in 17 years!

7. Steelers @ Ravens (Week 18): One of the strangest games of the season. Two teams compete for the kings of trash hill (aka The AFC North) on a Sunday Night Game in Pittsburg. Due to a chaotic fourth quarter of blown coverages and chunk plays, the game went from a defensive slog to a massive shootout. Aaron Rodgers gave it his all while Lamar Jackson and Zay Flowers made some incredible magic. However, the game will forever be defined by Loop’s game-loosing missed FG (down 2 off a missed XP from Pittsburg).

6. Rams @ Bears (NFC Divisional): A cold defensive slog in Chicago may not sound like a fun time on paper, but when your QBs are the MVP Stafford and the red-hot Caleb Williams, you’re destined for a great time. The best play of the NFL season happened on a 4th-down game tying Touchdown that took the game into OT. Despite the Rams forcing a 3-and-out off a questionable run-concept on 3rd and 1, Williams’ interception cost them the game. Sometimes, fate giveth and fate taketh away.

4. Packers @ Bears (NFC Wild Card): The best comeback of the season. The bears down 21-3 at the half, and 21-6 in the 3rd scored 25 points in the fourth quarter. Packers Special Team issues and vanilla offensive playcalling sunk their ship while Caleb Williams had a defining moment on a fourth-and-eight completion to Odunze. The league’ oldest rivalry in the playoffs + an epic comeback, I am sorry cheeseheads, this one will hurt for a while.

3. Bills @ Broncos (AFC Divisional): The two best teams in the conference battled on a sunny Saturday afternoon. Josh Allen’s 4-turnovers were the defying moments of the game, and yet still had a chance in OT. The catch/interception controversy is still debated by Bills and Broncos fans to this day. The game was extremely competitive with some great plays by both teams. Even if Bo’s injury dampered what could have been a championship run, this game itself was proof they were not frauds (I was a Nix hater but not anymore lol).

2. Packers @ Bears (Week 16): The tides had finally changed. A Bears team that had relied on a dominating offensive line and running game showed their QB has some magic too. Down 16-6, the Bears scored 10 straight in the 4th, including a completed onside kick. The forced fumble and game winner deep ball to DJ Moore at extremely memorable moments. Bonus points for a divisional rivalry.

1. Rams @ Seahawks (Week 16): Sam Darnold comes back from a 16-point deficit after the Seahawks defense gave up 150 yards to Puka (who would finish with over 200) and 30 points. The Seahawks completed 3 straight 2-point conversions, one of them off a very rare mishap and another on a game winner to Saubert.
