    Touchdown - Cardinalspublished at 21:39 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2022

    Seattle Seahawks 0-7 Arizona Cardinals

    The Cardinals lead just 12 seconds into their game with the Seahawks as Chandler Jones sacks Russell Wilson and knocks the ball loose for Zach Allen to scoop it up and run in a 16-yard touchdown.

  3. Steelers win!published at 21:32 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2022

    Pittsburgh Steelers 16-13 Baltimore Ravens

    Chris Boswell sends his kick high and right down the middle of the sticks from 36 yards and that means it looks like Ben Roethlisberger's last ride will see him go to the play-offs!

    It was a thriller but Big Ben got it done when it mattered with that drive in overtime - to secure what is the 33rd walk-off win of an incredible season.

  4. Steelers convert!published at 02:00 left

    Pittsburgh Steelers 13-13 Baltimore Ravens

    There are more industrial words for it, but it took some guts for coach Mike Tomlin and Ben Roethlisberger to go for it, but it pays off as the QB finds Ray-Ray McCloud who gathers a low catch for the first down!

    They're on the 31-yard line now which would make it around a 48-yard kick for Chris Boswell, but they'll try and get more yards first.

  5. Pittsburgh going for itpublished at 02:28 left

    Pittsburgh Steelers 13-13 Baltimore Ravens

    Diontae Johnson drops a catch and now the Steelers take a timeout to discuss whether to go for it on fourth and eight, or attempt a 60-yard field goal that would win this contest.

    It looks like they'll go for it...

  6. Johnson convertspublished at 03:09 left

    Pittsburgh Steelers 13-13 Baltimore Ravens

    Diontae Johnson gets another first down and now Pittsburgh are creeping torwards field goal range as we get towards just three minutes left on the clock...

    SaintStarDevil: Can the Saints pull off the impossible tonight? Considering the constant stream of injuries we've had to deal with along with covid, its testament to Sean Payton that we are still in with any sort of a shout.

  10. Record day for Kupp?published at 21:20 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2022

    San Francisco 49ers v Los Angeles Rams (21:25)

    Among other big records on the line tonight, Rams receiver Cooper Kupp could set the single season record for receiving yards tonight - albeit with that one extra game in the season.

    Kupp leads the league in receptions, receiving yards and receiving touchdowns - and could become just the fourth player ever to win the receiving triple crown.

  11. Battle for the NFC Westpublished at 21:16 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2022

    San Francisco 49ers v Los Angeles Rams (21:25)

    There's so much on the line in Los Angeles tonight, with the Rams needing to win to claim the NFC West title and a home tie next week.

    A win could also end the season for their big rivals the San Francisco 49ers - as long as the Saints beat the Falcons.

    Despite the Rams being the much better side over the last few years though, they just can't beat the Niners, with San Francisco winning the last five meetings including a 31-10 hammering already this season.

    Kyle Shanahan just seems to have every answer for any question Sean McVay can pose to his side, and with San Fran in greater need tonight they could well make it six in a row.

    A win for San Francisco also opens the door for the Arizona Cardinals to win the NFC West by beating Seattle.

  13. FT - Lions upset Packerspublished at 21:14 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2022

    Green Bay Packers 30-37 Detroit Lions

    The Packers have a lot to do to get within range of a potential game-tying score in the final 51 seconds.

    But three plays into the drive Jordan Love throws a hopeful ball down the middle for another interception - two on two drives - and that'll give the Lions the chance to ice it for just their third win of the season.

    It's also enough for Detroit to avoid finishing the season with the league's worst record, leaving Jacksonville with the number one draft pick for a second straight year.

  14. Ravens rollingpublished at 07:42 left

    Pittsburgh Steelers 13-13 Baltimore Ravens

    Baltimore have the ball first and they're going heavy on the run game, which is working nicely as they drive up towards midfield with a fresh set of downs.

  15. Going to overtime in Baltimorepublished at 21:10 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2022

    Pittsburgh Steelers 13-13 Baltimore Ravens

    It's all up for grabs now! The game goes to overtime and as the Colts' loss is confirmed, both of these can still make the play-offs with a win.

    The route is a bit clearer for Pittsburgh than Baltimore but still they're both alive with a win.

  16. FT - Colts blow it as Jags winpublished at 21:09 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2022

    Indianapolis Colts 11-26 Jacksonville Jaguars

    Well done to the Jacksonville Jaguars, who played a great game tonight and not only beat the Colts but also still claim the number one pick in the NFL Draft!

    It couldn't have gone any better for them, or any worse for the Colts who now have to go and watch the rest of the action and hope for the Chargers, Steelers and Patriots all to lose.

    Whoa... on the third play of the Packers' next drive, Jordan Love is intercepted.

    And four plays later Riley Patterson kicks a 27-yard field goal to make it a seven-point game with just 51 seconds on the clock.

  18. FT - Titans take top seedpublished at 21:05 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2022

    Tennessee Titans 28-25 Houston Texans

    The AFC road to the Super Bowl will go through Nashville as the Tennessee Titans seal a hard-fought victory in Houston and pip the Kansas City Chiefs to the number one seed in the AFC.

    Congratulations to Mike Vrabel after a fantastic effort from his side - who did this largely without Derrick Henry!

  19. Pittsburgh puntpublished at 00:38 left

    Pittsburgh Steelers 13-13 Baltimore Ravens

    The Steelers have to kick it away even though they're on a fourth and one, they're just too scared of Justin Tucker's big leg.

    The Ravens have 38 seconds left to win this.

  20. field goal

    Field goal - Tucker levelspublished at 20:58 Greenwich Mean Time 9 January 2022

    Pittsburgh Steelers 13-13 Baltimore Ravens

    Justin Tucker lines up the field goal from 46 yards, which means that it's obviously three points for Baltimore as Tucker just doesn't miss does he?

    We're all sqaure here and we've got just over a minute left on the clock. We could be going to overtime unless we can find a late hero....
