WENTZ TEARS ACL AGAINST RAMS, OTHER STORYLINES FROM NFL WEEK 14
Cowboys rout Giants 30-10, still in playoff fight
The whole playoff picture shook up this week, especially in the NFC. Here’s the biggest stories and the scores from week 14.
Carson Wentz is out for the season after tearing his ACL in Sunday’s win against the Rams. Wentz was hit on both sides of his left knee in what would’ve been a touchdown, but a holding call brought it back. Wentz finished the drive and was checked out by team trainers. He didn’t return to the game and his injury was diagnosed as a torn ACL on Monday. Wentz will not play again this season. It will be interesting to see how the Eagles play without Wentz at QB.
The Dallas Cowboys won 30-10 on Sunday to make it two straight blowout wins against division opponents. Dak Prescott lit it up, going 20/30 for 332 yards and 3 touchdowns. The Cowboys had Sean Lee back, and it made a huge difference having him back on defense. He had 10 tackles, a season high, and his first interception of the season. The Cowboys are 7-6, and can still make the playoffs, but they must win out. They play Oakland on Sunday Night Football in week 15 at 7:20 on NBC.
The Patriots were stunned by the Dolphins on Monday Night in a 27-20 win for Miami. Jay Cutler had a good game, passing for 263 yards and 3 touchdowns, but the difference maker was running back Kenyan Drake, who is in his second season. He ran for 114 yards on 25 carries, averaging a blistering 4.6 yards per carry. The Patriots are now 10-3, as the Dolphins are 6-7. The Patriots have a pivotal game against Pittsburgh on Sunday. For Pittsburgh, if they win and Jacksonville loses, they can wrap up home-field advantage for the playoffs.
