Week 15 Sunday Night Freestyle: Patriots' last-second blunder, Vikings' unbelievable comeback & Trevor Lawrence has officially arrived

Week 15 got off to a weird start in the NFL right away. Saturday's triple-header started off with the 10-win Minnesota Vikings instantly falling into a 33-0 hole at home against a struggling Indianapolis Colts team. Well they came back and ended up winning 39-36 and the weekend's games continued to get stranger from there; most notably by the absolutely wild finish in Las Vegas as the Raiders surprised the New England Patriots thanks to a Chandler Jones defensive touchdown on a play in which Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers threw an ill-advised lateral pass as the clock hit double-zeroes.

Charles Robinson & Frank Schwab look back at this weekend's wild slate of games including the aforementioned unbelievable finishes in Minneapolis and Las Vegas, the New York Giants essentially punching their playoff ticket with a win over the division rival Washington Commanders, Trevor Lawrence looking like the first overall pick in a surprise win over the Dallas Cowboys and the Detroit Lions clawing their way back to .500 thanks to a win over the New York Jets.
