Patriots | Rhamondre Stevenson runs for 131 yards, scores three TD in Week 18 Sun Jan 4, 09:52 PM

To cap off the regular season, Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson finished with 131 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns, along with 22 receiving yards and one receiving touchdown, and the Patriots completed their remarkable turnaround season with a 38-10 win over the Miami Dolphins on Sunday.

Footballguys view: The veteran running back, who was a game captain Sunday, was the team's biggest impact-maker on their first offensive drive, carrying the ball twice for 65 yards on a three-play, 70-yard series in which rookie TreVeyon Henderson ran in for a 5-yard touchdown (his first of two scores). Pro Football Focus charted Stevenson with 104 yards after contact and three broken tackles in the performance. Stevenson, who was drafted as RB40 this summer, finished the regular season with 603 rushing yards and seven touchdowns while sharing the backfield with Henderson, who was drafted as RB18 heading into his first season.

Rams | Matthew Stafford tosses four touchdown passes in Week 18 Sun Jan 4, 09:37 PM

Matthew Stafford passed for 259 yards and threw four touchdowns as the Rams rallied to secure the No. 5 seed in the NFC playoffs with a 37-20 victory over the Arizona Cardinals.

Footballguys view: Stafford passed Dan Marino for seventh place on the NFL's career TD passes list while finishing his MVP-caliber season leading the NFL with 4,707 yards passing and 46 TDs -- the second most in league history by a quarterback at least 37 years old. For our purposes, Stafford, who was drafted in the double-digit rounds as QB25 this summer, finished the year as QB3 overall. It's safe to assume his price will rise in 2026.

Bears | Big game for Colston Loveland Sun Jan 4, 09:14 PM

Chicago Bears TE Colston Loveland caught 10 of his 13 targets for a team-high 91 yards and a touchdown in a 19-16 loss to the Detroit Lions in Week 18.

Footballguys view: Although the rookie got off to a slow start this season, he's turned out to be a perfect fit alongside second-year quarterback Caleb Williams. Tom Brady, who was calling the game for Fox, believes that Loveland is comparable to his longtime tight end Rob Gronkowski. "He's like a mini Gronk," Brady said. Loveland finishes his rookie campaign with 58 receptions for 713 yards and six touchdowns. Those numbers showcased exactly why the Bears had such belief in the young tight end. Fantasy investors will likely share in that belief after Loveland's strong finish this season.

Falcons | Atlanta parts with Raheem Morris, Terry Fontenot Sun Jan 4, 08:48 PM

Atlanta Falcons head coach Raheem Morris and general manager Terry Fontenot were fired on Sunday, Jan. 4.

Footballguys view: According to NFL insider Jordan Schultz, former Falcons QB Matt Ryan is being strongly considered for a high-profile front-office role, similar to what Detroit has with Chris Spielman. As for next steps, NFL.com suggests the pieces are certainly there to attract a good candidate -- running back Bijan Robinson and wide receiver Drake London chief among them. But questions remain throughout much of the roster and at the all-important quarterback position, with Michael Penix Jr. recovering from an ACL injury. We'll continue to watch for more on this in coming weeks.

Lions | Amon-Ra St. Brown dominates Chicago Sun Jan 4, 08:44 PM

Detroit Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown caught 11 of his 15 targets for 139 yards in a 19-16 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 18.

Footballguys view: As CBSSports.com noted, St. Brown shook off a questionable designation (knee) and put together one of his best performances of the season. He led the team in receptions, receiving yards, and targets. His 24.9 fantasy points ranked third among receivers through Sunday night's kickoff. St. Brown finished the year with 117 receptions for 1,401 yards and 11 touchdowns and added three carries for nine yards across 17 games. St. Brown, who finishes the season as WR3 overall, will naturally serve as a centerpiece of the Lions' air attack again in 2026.

Bills | Ray Davis tears it up in relief role Sun Jan 4, 08:18 PM

Buffalo Bills RB Ray Davis rushed 21 times for 151 yards in Week 18 against the New York Jets, as starter RB James Cook was rested after a brief cameo. Davis also had two receptions for 23 yards and a touchdown on two targets.

Footballguys view: Davis recorded career highs in carries (21), rushing yards (151), and rushing yards over expected (+50) against the Jets. He was the focal point of the offense and made life miserable for New York's defense. While Cook is not going to cede many touches on a typical week, Davis' performance in this one reminds us just how capable an insurance policy he is for Cook investors.

Chiefs | Chris Oladokun ineffective in second career start Sun Jan 4, 08:16 PM

Buffalo Bills QB Mitchell Trubisky completed 22-of-29 passes for 259 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 18 against the New York Jets, coming on for QB Josh Allen after a single snap.

Footballguys view: It was a strong performance on a day in which the playoff-bound Bills (12-5) rested a majority of their starters. Trubisky distributed the ball nicely, hitting four different players -- Gabriel Davis, Ty Johnson, Dawson Knox, and Ray Davis -- with scoring passes. Sunday's win, coupled with the Los Angeles Chargers' loss at Denver, led to Buffalo moving up one spot in clinching the No. 6 seed. The Bills will travel to play the AFC South champion Jaguars in the wild-card round next weekend.
