2017 Season: Week #12 Recap

Buffalo Bills vs Kansas City Chiefs

                                     1         2         3         4          FINAL
BUFFALO                  7        10        14       14         45
KANSAS CITY         0          3         0         3          6

KANSAS CITY – With another dominating defensive performance, the Buffalo Bills (6-4-1) dismantled the Kansas City Chiefs 45-6.
Aaron Rodgers shined with 317 yards passing and 4 TD, but the real star of the game was the outstanding play of cornerback James Bradberry.
Bradberry finished with 3 INT (one for a TD) while allowing zero catches on the game for a perfect 'PFF' rating.
"Just trying to get better each week," Bradberry said. "People (were) all but burying us after week 8. We are champions."
With their new found defensive swagger, the Bills will next take on the New England Patriots in a quest to keep their Wild Card dreams alive. 


Carolina Panthers vs New York Jets

                                     1         2         3         4          FINAL
CAROLINA                7         0         3         0          10
NEW YORK               7         7         14      10         38

NEW YORK – The steady New York Jets (9-2) easily took care of the Carolina Panthers 38-10 in upstate New York Sunday morning.
David Johnson continued his MVP pace with 117 yards rushing and another 2 TD to add to his league leading 20 rushing scores.
"Look at our line," Johnson said. "I appreciate the credit I get, but I'm nothing without them."
Tyreek Hill took another long score to the house with a 68-yard 'dueces' moment.
The Jets will look to keep their top spot in the AFC intact as they take on the reeling Kansas City Chiefs next week. 


Miami Dolphins vs New England Patriots

                                     1         2         3         4          FINAL
MIAMI                       7        14        10       7          38
NEW ENGLAND      0        13        0         6         19


NEW YORK – In a game that saw Dak Prescott sacked 12 times, the Miami Dolphins (8-3, 2-1 AFC East) outlasted the New England Patriots (3-8, 0-2) 38-19 in Foxboro. 
Prescott finished with a respectable 323 yards passing with a pair of TD passes, but was under constant duress throughout.
"I can't put that all on the o-line," Prescott said. "We had a chance in this game, we'll be ready in 2 weeks when we see them again."
All Pro Bobby Wagner finished with a team high 4.0 sacks and an INT for the game.
"They are tough, despite the record," Wagner said. "We never felt like we had that in the bag until late. This division is tough. Look out for them next year, I'm telling you."
The Dolphins next face the Denver Broncos while the Patriots take on the Buffalo Bills.
