Everything you need to know from Week 13 of NFL action

The GIST: From a crowd-pleasing Thanksgiving main course to a winter wonderland, the Week 13 NFL slate was stuffed to the brim, featuring pick sixes, game-winning touchdowns (TDs), and eyebrow-raising endings. Buffalo Bills quarterback (QB) Josh Allen isn’t the only one asking big questions.

Kansas City Chiefs clinch season’s first playoff berth: Houdini did it again, this time on Black Friday. The two-time defending champs escaped their division rival, the Las Vegas Raiders, 19–17, after a controversial penalty ended the Raiders’ quest for a game-winning field goal. It’s miserable and magical.

Chicago Bears fire head coach Matt Eberflus after Thanksgiving faux pas: It was turkey with a side of a pink slip for Eberflus after Thursday’s head-scratching 23–20 loss to the Detroit Lions. Chicago had the ball in Detroit territory and a timeout to take late in the fourth quarter, but shockingly allowed the clock to expire, resulting in the team’s sixth straight loss.

Scary hit sends Jacksonville Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence to locker room: Houston Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair was ejected after the late hit on Lawrence. Unfortunately, the Jags’ signal caller displayed the now-infamous “fencing response” that can occur after a serious head injury before being carted off. Terrifying.

Bills slide into dominant Sunday Night Football win: Led by Buffalo’s all-time TD leader, the aforementioned Allen, the newly crowned AFC East champs spent last night dashing through the snow in their 35–10 victory over the San Francisco 49ers.

• And SF lost more than the game — star running back Christian McCaffrey, who just returned from injury in Week 10, exited in the first half after a non-contact knee injury.

What’s next: An 8:15 p.m. ET Monday Night Football matchup between the Cleveland Browns and Denver Broncos as the Mile High’s rookie QB Bo Nix looks to tally his fourth consecutive game with at least two TD passes. This kid is definitely alright.
