Latest info for all Week 18 games

The NFL has reached the regular season finals. It has been a whirlwind 2022 campaign for several teams in the league. Week 18 offers a chance to evaluate and reset for the months to come.

All 32 teams will be in action this weekend. There’s a lot to decide as the NFL playoffs wrap up Sunday night.

On Saturday, the Jaguars closed out the AFC South with a narrow 20-16 win over the Titans, while the Chiefs earned the AFC No. 1 spot with a 31-13 defeat of the Raiders. Meanwhile, the Philadelphia Eagles need a win on Sunday to secure the NFC East and a first round bye.

The NFL wild card race is a bit murky.

Three AFC teams were able to claim the final wild card spot. Those teams include the New England Patriots, Miami Dolphins, and Pittsburgh Steelers. The NFC could see if the Seattle Seahawks, Detroit Lions or Green Bay Packers claim the final last playoff position.

Kansas City Chiefs 31, Las Vegas Raiders 13

Short: The Chiefs were in complete control of the game en route to a decisive win that gave them the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoffs. Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes was 18 for 26 passes for 202 yards and a touchdown in the win. Isiah Pacheco, Ronald Jones II and Kadarius Toney all scored rushing touchdowns for Kansas City.

Jacksonville Jaguars 20, Tennessee Titans 16

Short: Defense was the story of this actual AFC South championship game that gave the Jaguars their first playoff berth since 2017 and their fourth division title in franchise history. Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence was solid, but the Jacksonville offense left some opportunities on the field. Instead, it was the defense that sealed the game – and a trip to the postseason – for the Jaguars. Meanwhile, the Titans finished the season with seven straight losses.

A highlight to know: Titans QB Josh Dobbs lost a fumble with Jaguars defenseman Josh Allen collected the loose fumble and returned for a touchdown that gave Jacksonville a lead it wouldn’t relinquish.

Next one: The Jaguars won the AFC South and claimed the number 4 seed in the AFC playoffs. The Titans were eliminated with the loss.

Miami Dolphins 11, New York Jets 6

Short: Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders kicked a game-winning field goal from 50 yards out as Miami clinched its first playoff berth since 2016. In a game dominated by the two defenses, Jets QB Joe Flacco and Dolphins QB Skylar Thompson both struggled to get into a get rhythm.

A highlight to know: Sanders’ 50-yard field goal hit the Dolphins’ postseason ticket.

Next one: The Dolphins closed the seventh and final seed in the AFC playoffs. The Jets were previously knocked out.

Buffalo Bills 35, New England Patriots 23

Short: The Bills settled things in their first game since Damar Hamlin went down almost a week earlier on Monday Night Football. The win eliminated the Patriots from postseason contention. Special teams were huge in this game, as Nyheim Hines scored a pair of kickoff returns for touchdowns, including one on the game’s opening kickoff.

A highlight to know: Hines found the end zone on the game’s opening kickoff.

Next one: The Bills locked in the No. 2 seed in the AFC playoffs. The Patriots were eliminated.

Atlanta Falcons 30, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 17

Short: Falcons QB Desmond Ridder threw for a pair of touchdowns as Atlanta defeated its division rival by a two-touchdown margin in the regular-season finale. The Buccaneers, already capturing the NFC South, chose to rest several of their starters throughout the game. Falcons RB Tyler Allgeier had 24 rushes for 135 yards.

A highlight to know: Knight found Olamide Zaccheaus for a 10-yard touchdown to give the Falcons a third-quarter lead it wouldn’t relinquish.

Next one: The Buccaneers previously clinched the number 4 seed in the NFC playoffs. The Falcons were already out.

Minnesota Vikings 29, Chicago Bears 13

Short: Kirk Cousins and the Vikings rolled over a Bears team without many of its starters, including standout sophomore QB Justin Fields. The shorthanded Bears struggled to score much offensively and ended a disappointing season on a down note.

A highlight to know: Cousins found wide receiver Adam Thielen for a 4-yard touchdown to open the game’s scoring.

Next one: Minnesota had already clinched the NFC North and one of the conference’s top four seeds in the playoffs. The Bears were previously eliminated.

Baltimore Ravens at Cincinnati Bengals

Kick-off: 1 p.m. ET

TV: CBS

Betting info:Opportunities, money line and more

What to know: Both teams are in the playoffs. However, this game has a different impact on placing in the playoffs. The Bengals are AFC North champions but could be forced to play a wild card game next week. The Ravens should win on Sunday and get some help in the form of a Los Angeles Chargers loss. Then a coin flip should fall in their favour. It sounds complicated, but Sunday’s game is best enjoyed for some old-fashioned fun at AFC North.

Houston Texans 32, Indianapolis Colts 31

Carolina Panthers 10, New Orleans Saints 7

Short: The Panthers finished their season on a high note, conceding a last-second field goal to beat the Saints in a Week 18 Finals in New Orleans. The Panthers completed only five passes in the game, but ran for 171 yards as a team.

A highlight to know: The Panthers blocked a 55-yard field goal attempt by Saints kicker Will Lutz. Carolina would get the winning kick on the ensuing possession.

Next one: Both teams were previously eliminated from postseason contention.
