It's almost fitting that it was snowing in Buffalo on Sunday because Steelers running back looked like he was sledding downhill during a record-setting performance in Pittsburgh's 27-20 win over the Bills. With the Steelers pa sing game on ice, Pittsburgh was able to survive in Buffalo thanks to Bell, who rushed for
Michael Ferland Jersey a franchise-record 236 yards and three touchdowns. Bell became the first player this year not named to hit the 200-yard mark. Bell's total broke Willie Parker's Steelers' record of 223 yards, which had stood since December 2006.This clearly untouched photo of Le'Veon Bell running all over the Bills is really telling. CBS Sports (@CBSSports) As the Steelers creep closer to clinching a playoff berth, this performance should scare the rest of the AFC. For one, Bell looks fresh, and ready to roll for the postseason. In a twist of fate, the fact the Bell had to sit out the Steelers' first three games due to suspension might actually be helping him. That's three weeks of practice and three weeks of being hit in games that Bell didn't have to go through. The reason Bell's performance should scare the AFC is because the the Steelers are usually horrible when is bad, but that didn't happen in Buffalo. Big Ben had one of the worst games of his career with three interceptions, which usually means disaster for Pittsburgh. Before Sunday, the Steelers had a 1-9 regular season record when Roethlisberger threw three or more interceptions in a game. This time around though, the Steelers were able to survive Roethlisberger's meltdown thanks to Bell's record-setting performance. The Steelers seem to have the most high-powered, versatile offense in the AFC, and with a defense that seems to be getting better every week, Pittsburgh
Jamieson Rees Jersey might be the new favorite to win the AFC. : B Although we gave Le'Veon Bell all the credit above, we should also give some credit for this win to a Steelers defense that seems to be peaking at the right time. Pittsburgh's defense seemed to harne s the power of the Steel Curtain as they sacked five times and held the Bills' top-ranked run game to just 67 yards. : C- If the Bills are trying to get Rex Ryan fired, then they did a good job of that against the Steelers. Just hours after CBS Sports Insider Jason La Canfora reported that Ryan could be canned as soon as this week, the Bills came out and laid an egg. If Ryan's specialty is defense, then he might want to think about picking up a new specialty after watching the Bills get trampled for 240 yards on the ground. On offense, the Bills had le s than zero yards (-1) after the first quarter. The only reason this game wasn't a blowout is because the Bills scored two touchdowns in the final 7:30 of the game. : C- At the point in the season, the Broncos defense is probably starting to think they'd have a better chance of winning if Denver's offense never stepped foot on the field. You can blame the Broncos' offensive line, you can blame their lack of a running game, you can can blame , or you can blame them all, but the bottom line is that the offense has been horrible this year, and that trend continued in Tenne see. Coach Gary Kubiak tried to spark the running game by bringing in , but that plan failed miserably when Forsett fumbled away his first carry with Denver. That fumble led to a Titans field goal, , which is kind of a big deal when you only lose by three points. The Broncos only had 18 rushing yards in this game, which is tied for the team's second-lowest rushing total dating back to 1980. : B If you
Martin Necas Women Jersey told Titans fans their team was only going to put up 253 yards of offense in this game and win, they probably would've laughed in your face. Before Sunday, the Titans were 0-6 in the Marcus Mariota-era when putting up 260 or fewer yards, but that changed in this game, thanks to and a Titans defense that terrorized Trevor Siemian. Murray grinded through the Broncos defense for 92 and a touchdown, while the Titans defense didn't allow a single drive of over 40 yards in the entire game. The Titans won despite the fact that Mariota finished just 6 of 20 for 88 yards. How ugly was that?Marcus Mariota had the lowest completion percentage (30.0) by any winning QB with at least 20 attempts since JaMarcus Ru sell in 2009 NFL Research (@NFLResearch) You never want to be mentioned in the same sentence as JaMarcus Ru sell. The good news for the Titans is that they're now tied for first place this late in the season for the first time since 2008. : B+ If is hoping to return to Philadelphia following the 2016 season, he had a pretty good audition on Sunday. The Redskins receiver caught three pa ses for 102 yards in this game, including a huge 80-yard touchdown catch in the second half that put the Redskins up 14-13. wasn't perfect in this game, but he didn't have to be because the beasts in his backfield ( and ) combined for 101 yards and two touchdowns while averaging 5.3 yards per carry. : B- single-handedly nailed the final nail in the coffin of the Eagles' playoff chances. Two huge mistakes by the Eagles rookie cost Philly big time in this game. The first mistake was an interception in the first quarter
James Reimer Kids Jersey on a play where Philadelphia had the ball at Washington's 3-yard line. The other mistake came when Wentz lost a fumble on the Eagles' final offensive po se sion of the game. : C This game couldn't have been any uglier for the Cardinals, who looked completely inept in the first half. On their first seven po se sions of the game, the Cardinals turned the ball over four times, punted the ball once and mi sed a field goal. The only reason this grade isn't worse is because the weather was so bad, it looked like a hurricane was going to hit Hard Rock Stadium during the game. : B Although the Dolphins didn't lose this game, their playoff hopes might have died anyway. During the game, quarterback went down with a knee injury in the third quarter and looks to be lost for the season. The Dolphins' season is now in the hands of , who
Brock McGinn Men Jersey looked ugly for three po se sions before leading Miami to a game-winning field goal on a drive where he went 2 of 2 for 31 yards. : D For most of this game, it seemed like every Chargers offensive play ended with either a turnover or a sack, and that's only a slight exaggeration. San Diego ran a total of 67 plays in this game, and 10 of those DID end with a turnover or a sack. The Chargers sloppy offense turned the ball over five times and was sacked five times. The turnover total marked just the fourth time since 2003 that the Chargers have committed five or more turnovers in a game. Now we can start playing the "Who gets fired
