It’s finally here.
The last week of the NFL regular season has come and gone and while it’s been a long road to get here, I don’t think any of us are ready to say goodbye.
Here are some of the best moments you may have missed.
Josh Allen’s last hurrah of the season was pretty incredible:
.@JoshAllenQB 30-yard TD run?!
Yes, PLEASE.

Had the #Bills lost, they would have picked 7th overall. Instead, they won so they’re picking 9th.
I’m willing to bet the organization & most the fan base are fine with sacrificing 2 spots in the draft order to secure a win in Kyle Williams’ final game and a Josh Allen 5 TD day

The Lions completely shut out the Packers and Green Bay is ready to make some changes:
Browns and Packers have requested permission to interview Patriots’ DC Brian Flores for head coach, per league source.
Packers also requested permission to interview Patriots’ OC Josh McDaniels for HC.

The Detroit Lions pull off one of the coolest special team touchdowns I’ve ever seen. How did the Packers not see a guy wide open when lining up? pic.twitter.com/hePwQQXN6i

The Patriots showed no mercy and secured their first round bye:
career completions for Tom Brady.

Now at home the Patriots get the Ravens or Chargers. I like Brady’s chances. This season is becoming his greatest achievement.

The @Patriots earn a playoff bye for the 10th straight year. It can only mean Dynasty is done. QB is in decline. Coach has lost his team

The Panthers enjoyed a dead cat bounce against the Brees-less Saints:
Panthers will pick 16th in the 2019 draft. Entered today at No. 10.

Teddy Bridgewater not exactly making a great case for himself as a 2019 starter.
