Welcome to Week 14 of the school year!
This was the third time this season that the NFL has held a Monday night doubleheader, and with both games close, it may go down as the best Monday doubleheader in NFL history. In New York, the Giants shocked the Packers with a 38-yard field goal as time expired, winning 24-22.
In Miami, the Titans overcame a 14-point deficit in the final three minutes for a miraculous 28-27 victory over the Dolphins. To understand how unlikely Tennessee’s victory was, consider these numbers.
- NFL teams trailed by 14 points in the final three minutes, giving them their 642nd straight loss.
- Over the past 20 seasons, teams have now won 4-2,074 games when they trailed by 14 points or more in the final three minutes. That’s four wins compared to 2,074 losses (the last team to pull off a similar comeback was the Saints in 2017).
- The Titans became the first team in NFL history to come from behind by 14 points or more in the final three minutes and win within regulation.
- The last time such a comeback occurred in Monday’s game was Peyton Manning’s famous comeback with the Colts in 2003. In that game, the Colts trailed 35-14 with four minutes left, but won 38-35 in overtime.
- This was the league’s biggest upset win since the 2021 regular season finale between the Colts and Jags.
This match was also a big upset. This was the biggest point reversal in two years, as the Titans entered Miami as a 14-point underdog.
Now let’s move on to the grades, starting with the Titans’ miracle in Miami.
