In a wacky Week 16, we have entered into the holiday season where we get games almost all weekend now, with games on Thursday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. A total of 13 quarterbacks played significant snaps for teams that did not have them as the primary starter at the beginning of the season this week. We saw a successful two-point conversion that popped off someone’s head, a player throwing a punch at a fan, and an awesome would-be game-winning touchdown called back by a penalty. Here is your Week 16 AFC wrap-up!
Week 16 Takeaways from Every AFC Team that Played on Sunday
AFC West
Denver Broncos – The Broncos had their 11-game winning streak snapped as they fell to the Jaguars 34-20. Denver still has everything in front of them in terms of a playoff spot, the division crown, and the top overall seed, but things just got a little tighter.
Los Angeles Chargers – The Chargers had everything going on offense as they beat the Cowboys on the road to win their fourth straight game. The Chargers now sit at 11-4, which is just one game back of the Broncos for the division lead.
Kansas City Chiefs – Gardner Minshew tore his ACL midgame as the Chiefs’ season crumbles even further, as they lose to the lowly Titans 26-9.
Las Vegas Raiders – Ashton Jeanty went nuclear with over 180 total yards and two touchdowns, but the Raiders were edged out by Houston 23-21.
