For a decade now http://www.bengalscheapshop.com/cheap-authentic-michael-jordan-jersey , the New England Patriots have owned the AFC East.The Patriots clinched their 10th straight division title Sunday when they beat Buffalo 24-12. They got an added bonus when Houston fell at Philadelphia 32-30 to drop out of the second seed in the conference, which New England grabbed.The defending Super Bowl champion Eagles remained alive in the NFC wild-card chase with that win on Jake Elliott’s 35-yard field goal as time expired.Dallas took the NFC East crown when it defeated Tampa Bay 27-20.New Orleans secured home-field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs by beating Pittsburgh 31-28, dropping the Steelers into second place behind Baltimore in the AFC North.Seattle knocked off Kansas City 38-31 to take an NFC wild card, opening the possibility that the Patriots, Chiefs or Chargers could be the top seed in the AFC.Here’s how things look with one week remaining. The Monday night game between Denver and Oakland has no playoff implications.AFCIt was a double treat for the Patriots, who probably need to be home in the postseason considering they are 7-0 in Foxboro — the league’s only undefeated team in its own building —and 3-5 on the road.“We didn’t have our best day in the passing game.But it felt good to win.At this time of year, whatever it takes to win, that’s what you’ve got to do,” Tom Brady said.Baltimore (9-6), fresh off its victory at the Chargers on Saturday night, has a half-game lead on Pittsburgh (8-6-1) T.J. Hockenson Jersey , which has lost four of five. The Ravens will take the North with a home win against Cleveland next week. The Steelers host Cincinnati and need help to get into the postseason.“We’re playing pretty good football, but it might not matter,” Ben Roethlisberger said. “Obviously we don’t control our destiny any more. We have to take care of business next week.“You can be as skillful as you want on both sides of the ball and special teams, but there is still a small element of luck involved in football. A play here, a play there. If that’s what it is, I don’t know, but it’s the game of football.”In the South, Houston (10-5) is leading Indianapolis and Tennessee, both 9-6. The Colts and Titans face off in Nashville next Sunday night, and the winner there will be in.

Seattle (9-6) is in after the victory against Kansas City. Philadelphia (8-7) needs to beat Washington and have Minnesota lose to be assured of a return to the playoffs.The Bears (11-4) still have a shot at a first-round bye, needing to beat the Vikings and have the West champion Rams (12-3) lose at home to San Francisco next Sunday.New Orleans (13-2) has the league’s best mark and owns the South crown.“Knowing that we’ve done it, knowing that the road comes through New Orleans, that gives us a lot of confidence,” Drew Brees said. “Obviously we love playing in the dome. … We have goals throughout the season and this is one of them.” OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) — With an eye toward the future, Baltimore Ravens first-year general manager Eric DeCosta provided contract extensions to kicker Justin Tucker and guard Marshal Yanda.Tucker signed a four-year extension through 2023, and Yanda added a year to a contract set to expire after the upcoming season. Both deals were finalized Wednesday.DeCosta called Tucker Will Harris Jersey , the most accurate field-goal kicker in NFL history, and Yanda, a seven-time Pro Bowler, “two of our best players.”The goal was to get both players locked up early. Tucker’s extension modifies a four-year contract signed in 2016 that was to expire after the 2019 season.“It helps us plan ahead, looking at next year, what our cap situation is going to look like and what the roster is going to look like,” DeCosta said.Since breaking into the league as an undrafted free agent in 2012, Tucker has made 90.1% of his field goal tries — the highest career percentage in NFL history. He made 35 of 39 tries in 2018, missing only from 53 and 65 yards and getting two blocked.“He’s the best kicker in the league,” DeCosta said. “If you agree to that, it’s pretty easy to get a deal done.”A two-time Pro Bowl selection http://www.lionscheapshop.com/cheap-authentic-austin-bryant-jersey , the 29-year-old Tucker is the first kicker in NFL history to produce six seasons with at least 30 field goals. He missed the mark in 2014, when he kicked 29.Tucker has made 241 of 242 conversions and has 13 game-winning field goals, including a 61-yarder at Detroit in 2013 to seal an 18-16 victory in which he scored all of Baltimore’s points.“I think his best kicking, believe it or not, is in front of us,” coach John Harbaugh said.Said Tucker: “I think we’re trending in the right direction as a team and I’m just incredibly excited to be a part of it.”
