Week 15's Top 10 "Performance Moments of the Week" presented by Bridgestone winner came up big in the weekend's unlikeliest upset.
Aaron Rodgers was tasked with salvaging a rough afternoon into a late win for the Packers. Enter the Bills' defense and Mario Williams. With 1:58 remaining and down 19-13, Rodgers dropped back. Williams barely beat JC Tretter off the edge to swat the ball out of the MVP frontrunner's right hand, resulting in a safety. Williams ensured Buffalo's first non-losing season since 2004.Â
At No. 2: The Dolphins battled in the first half against the New England Patriots, down by one point by halftime. But Mike Wallace was responsible for a leaping one-handed catch that resulted in a 32-yard touchdown reception to bring the 'Fins to 14-13. This was the kind of play we expected out of Bill Lazor's offense before the season: Ryan Tannehill going deep down the sideline to the speedy Wallace.
Also making the countdown: A pirouetting Mike Evans hauls in a pretty 8-yard touchdown. ... Bengals running back Jeremy Hill found the end zone for the second time after laying a vicious stiff arm on Browns safety Jim Leonhard. ... William Gay had a pretty pick six against Matt Ryan, putting the Steelers up 13-0 at the top of the second quarter.
