Week 17: Part 2 (Got to DOUBLE CHECK if the ball is live)
KC played back-ups but still almost allowed the 8-8 (once 2-6) Steelers in but missed a 42 yd field goal at the end of regulation. It took nearly 12 minutes, but the now 8-8 Chargers' field goal in OT held up. The other late games are not that notable except for the 8-7-1 Packers winning their division via a strange "yeah it's a live ball" TD and late TD. Welcome back, Rodgers from your time off doing commercials. Bring on Kyle Orton!
ETA: Local radio guy noted Chargers got help from blown calls.

Bears fans can now relax and prepare the ezpop popcorn and find the cheap beer of the week and watch others struggle. At least they (we) won't have to figure out how to apologize for our team's shortcomings. Giants fans can probably relate.
Jets fans, otoh, cannot really relax, since they wish not to handle the shame of the Pats playing the Super Bowl in their own building. I wonder how many Bear fans are rooting for Kyle Orton. Ha.
Well, I for one was rooting for him. Kyle played well for the Bears without the benefit of the surrounding cast available to Cutler.
The local paper here said he did his part a bit too well -- part of being Tony Romo is some last game choke,
