NFL Week 17: Highest-graded plays of the week (Aidan Hutchinson’s spin move sack - Aidan Hutchinson has enjoyed a strong season in his return from injury in 2025, and this was one of his best plays of the year. He beat the offensive lineman with a quick spin move before bringing Vikings quarterback Max Brosmer down for a sack, earning a +1.5 PFF grade on the play.):  https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-week-17-highest-graded-plays-of-the-week

Cover 32: AFC North, NFC South winners will make early exits, plus game balls, biggest gaffes from Week 17 (Notable Week 17 gaffes - Jared Goff's turnover-filled Christmas:  Jared Goff likely didn't feel merry over the Christmas holiday, especially as he faced a Vikings defense that did more than just nip at his nose. The Lions quarterback saw his team officially eliminated from playoff contention after totaling five turnovers (2 INTs and 3 fumbles) in the loss to Minnesota.

Albert Breer - Week 17 Takeaways (Quick Hitters - I can’t think of a coordinator decision more impactful than the one Dan Campbell is going to have to make on offense in Detroit over the next couple of weeks. It’s hard to envision the Lions going back to John Morton after he was stripped of play-calling. I don’t think Campbell will keep doing it himself. Ben Johnson set such a high bar, and that roster’s still really good. Campbell has to get this one right.):  https://www.si.com/nfl/albert-breer-brock-purdy-explains-how-49ers-are-different-2025
