Russell Wilson engineered two 12-play drives for TDs late against the Bears to capture a signature win at Soldier Field.
COSTLY TURNOVERS Rivers has been far from clutch for reeling Chargers
Philip Rivers play this season could put the quarterback position under the spotlight in 2013. Rivers was supposed to put a disastrous 2011 behind him. Instead, he has 15 interceptions, nearing last years career mark of 20. What has made the turnovers worse is when they occur. Rivers leads the NFL with nine fourth-quarter picks, throwing another one in the Chargers loss to the Bengals on Sunday. Four of Rivers ve lost fumbles have happened in the nal quarter as well. Granted, Rivers hasnt received any help from the O-line or a run game, but his play has been poor, too. Rivers will be the starter in 13, but with a possible new coach coming in, San Diego may start looking for Rivers successor or competition if his struggles continue. Kevin Fishbain
NO pANIc YET Giants still can win East with awed stalkers
The Redskins are the avor of the month. Robert Grifn III is everyones poster child. That offense is hard to defend. But lets not forget where they were a month ago: at 3-6, coming off a loss to the Panthers, with Mike Shanahan exploring options for next season. Yes, the Redskins have won three in a row, including one over the Giants in Week 13, and the Cowboys are not out of the discussion in the division. But it says here that the Giants have had far worse losses, and far later in the season. Eli Manning just missed on a number of big pass plays against the Redskins, and a missed eld goal by Lawrence Tynes might have given the Giants the win. The Redskins path to winning the East is easier, but they still must make up a game. Eric Edholm

Thin at cornerback at a bad time: face the Patriots on Monday. Offense off its game, but get fourth AFC East crown in a row. Finally get win over Saints; remaining games will test Atlantas D. Champ Bailey showed he still has it by helping keep V-Jax in check.
Kaepernicks blunders, another Akers miss cost Niners. Remaining schedule is no picnic; need strong December.
Had only eight plays in the fourth, but zero touches for Ray Rice? Dont count out Packers run game rumbled for 152 in win. Wilson continues to shine, as Seattle nally gets second road win.
Rooks Hilton, Ballard, Allen, Fleener, Brazill tallied 13 catches, two TDs.
UPIPHOTOSTWO
Dalton throws two INTs, but run game and D the story in win. Lavonte David continues great rookie campaign with pick.
Three wins in a row for RG3 and crew have Skins in hunt. Romo, Dez show Cowboys potential in second-half explosion.
Brees ve-interception night the likely the nail in Saints cofn. Ponder not doing self, team any favors with bad red-zone picks. Who would have pegged Rams as 4-0-1 in the NFC West?
Longs injury further clouds the former No. 1 picks future in Miami.
Jairus Byrd with another pick, keeps padding rsum for contract extension.
Fourth-quarter collapse, Broyles tears ACL; brutal season continues. Back-to-back wins for rst time since early 2011 on Weedens big day.
O-line has been a disaster, now without starting OTs for Week 14. Lindley, run game set NFL offenses back a few decades in loss to Jets.
Turn it over six times in rst game under new offensive coordinator. Babin cut, Washburn red good-bye Wide-9 technique. Quite the step back to be lined up for another high draft pick. Brady Quinn shined on, off the eld during emotional weekend.
Probably didnt plan for Montell Owens to start in Week 14. They have a package ready for Terrelle Pryor. Will it help the offense?
