Rivera concerned about Panthers’ struggles to finish games
Again, the Panthers won’t know the outcome of Arizona’s finale against Seattle until after they play because the Cardinals play the late game. The Panthers are 3-0 against those teams, winning all three games by double digits and an average margin of 19.3 points.

Four of those, Green Bay in 2011, New Orleans in 2009, Indianapolis in 2005 and Denver in 1998, all failed to reach 14-0. With that victory the Redskins are 7-7 with tie-breaker advantages over the Giants.
SPECIAL TEAMS: C-plus – Kicker Graham Gano had a kick blocked for the fifth time this season, but he later hit a 43-yard game-winner as time expired. Miami (5-9) lost for the fourth time in five games. “I have to change it, and I’m trying to change it. But those guys constantly stay in my ear, saying, “You’ve got to be that same leader from the first quarter to the last quarter”…” We have to create that killer instinct. That’s not good news for a Giants defense that ranks last in the NFL. Surely, CBs Josh Norman and Cortland Finnegan did their best to keep Beckham’s fuse burning and that, combined with the receiver’s apparent frustration over the first first-half shutout of his career, made for an ugly situation. “It was a great matchup”.
Norman called Beckham immature and felt he should have been ejected.
This time, Beckham was flagged for personal fouls three times. It looked as if he was going to be the hero, dirty play notwithstanding. Wide receiver Ted Ginn caught a pair of touchdowns for the second straight week.
“He’s got to learn at some point how to deal with some things on the field”, Coughlin said. “There were some mistakes that were made that we need to talk about, and we need to get corrected”. It was a little look on Cam Newton’s face Sunday just after Eli Manning threw a 14-yard touchdown pass to Odell Beckham and just before Josh Brown tied the game 35-35 with less than two minutes left in regulation.
The outcome was briefly in doubt, but in the end, NY (or New Jersey, actually) proved to be Newton’s apple.
With the win, the Chiefs became the first National Football League team to follow a five-game slide with eight successive wins in the same season.
Only four other quarterbacks have thrown for five touchdowns three different times in a season.
Carolina started the day 13-0.
But some coaches opt to take the safe route and rest their players for the playoffs.
Shane Vereen added a receiving touchdown in the fourth quarter, his fourth of the season.
The Texans (7-7) took sole possession of the AFC South lead by snapping a two-game losing streak.
The Bears lost 34-10, and then lost 29-21 to the Panthers in a divisional playoff game after a bye week.
Of those teams, only one – the 1972 Dolphins – capped off the season by winning a championship.
“I don’t think it was serious”, Mularkey said of Mariota’s injury.
Even with a free touchdown on the table, I have to side with the Panthers here.
Mariota, who sat out two games this season because of an injury to his left knee, said he doesn’t expect to be sidelined for the Titans’ final two games. Cincinnati capitalized with touchdowns on two of the turnovers, including Kroft’s TD catch one play and five seconds after the second pick.
The Patriots won their 12th game, something they have done six years in a row.

The main one is that the Panthers are simply a much better team than the Giants who, despite a 6-7 record, are still battling for the NFC East title.
