The bad New Orleans defense, which surrendered an National Football League record 45 touchdown passes this season, came through in the season finale as the Saints beat the Atlanta Falcons 20-17 thanks to a 30-yard field goal by Kai Forbath as time expired. Hillman finished with 117 rushing yards, including a tiebreaking 23-yard touchdown run with 4:44 left to play on the first play after safety Shiloh Keo’s interception of a pass from quarterback Philip Rivers.

Good luck Denver Broncos and Peyton Manning…A Lombardi trophy on the way out of the NFL…Now that would be the ultimate script. Patriots head coach Bill Belichick downplayed a Brady ankle injury – he did not miss a snap – but said bluntly “we have lot of work to do”.
The Chargers, however, hadn’t scored off a turnover until they forced a fourth. “I guess all the quarterback’s who’ve played behind me, I feel for them”.
Yet now comes the really hard part, the one where the Broncos have to deal with the pressure of performing as a No. 1 seed.
The Broncos were facing the possibility of tumbling into the wild-card round when Manning came to the rescue.
During his first drive on the field, Manning immediately directed an eight-play, 80-yard drive that gave the Broncos a 14-13 lead over the Chargers.
Not only was Manning inserted into the lineup mid-way through the third, right tackle Michael Schofield, who has been universally ridiculed for poor play this season, also found his way to the bench in favor of veteran Tyler Polumbus. While watching Osweiler go 4-2 in his six starts, Manning had to publicly battled reports that he would refuse to return to be the No. 2 quarterback behind Osweiler, and then angrily denied a report from Al Jazeera a week ago that insinuated he had received human growth hormone in 2011.
Panthers 38, Buccaneers 10 – Cam Newton ran for two scores and threw for two more, and host Carolina (15-1) captured the NFC’s No. 1 seed for the first time in team history.
With the Pats eager to protect Brady’s health, he threw a season-low 21 passes, and even so he was lucky to make it through the game in one piece.
Following a 27-20 win in the Broncos’ last regular season game, Coach Kubiak said it was a gut feeling that made him put Manning in the game. Either way, the potential for falling flat on his face is fairly enormous.
– Already depleted, more players got injured.
As for Osweiler, he has to live with the fact he still has to be ready to go.
“He goes from running the scout team to running this team into the playoffs”, Nantz said. But I’ll sit down with both of those guys.
Manning had not played since November 15 and only took second-team reps at practice this week. Everybody. And it’s going to take everybody we have to take it the rest of the way.
It’s also a decision that will have major repercussions over the next two weeks as fans and pundits debate which quarterback is best equipped to lead the team in the playoffs.
“We’ll look at the tape”.
Three hours later and I still can not believe what I have just seen. “We held on to the ball, caught the ball better”. He kind of used me to help him get up.
“Coach Kubiak came over to me right after that first series in the third quarter and just told me, “Hey, we’re going to go with Peyton now. That’s what I felt”. I’m glad we won the division. That would have been pretty sickening [to lose]. Asked about his standing after Sunday’s game, McCoy said: “I’m the head football coach until they tell me different”. “I was glad to be able to contribute in some way today”. “I thought he was seeing things well, I thought Brock was playing well”. The time off seems to have done wonders for him.
To heap blame on Osweiler would be wrong. In the first half alone, the visitors had four takeaways but only three points as a result. We were moving the ball, we just weren’t getting it in the end zone, so it was tough on the emotions. Linebacker Danny Trevathan couldn’t forget his last meeting with the Chargers, on December 6.
And after struggling through most of the season, the running game finally appears to be rounding into form as the playoffs approach.
