(AP) — As a wideout, Santana Moss wants Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III to throw the ball as much as possible, of course, preferably in his direction. As a football player hoping to advance in the playoffs, Moss wants the Redskins to do what they've done as well as anyone in the NFL this season: run, run, run. "That's big t...

"Go Pack Go," he said. It was no use. Chicago kept its playoff hopes alive — but only momentarily. The Bears beat the Detroit Lions 26-24 on Sunday, then were eliminated from postseason contention when Minnesota edged G...

Peterson had 199 yards and a touchdown in Minnesota's 37-34 victory over the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, becoming the seventh NFL player to rush for 2,000 yards in a season.

(AP) — The smile has rarely left Calvin Johnson's face since he broke Jerry Rice's NFL record for receiving yards in a single season against Atlanta on Dec. 22. Don't let Johnson's smile fool you. Underneath that cheery expression, there's a fierce competitor who wants to make Rice's accomplishments a distant second to his own effort thi...

(AP) — The joke running through Jacksonville these days carries the same punch line as the one in Kansas City: "Our team is so bad it can't even stink in the right year." The Chiefs and Jaguars will vie for the top pick in the NFL draft in separate games Sunday. But the value of "winning" the race to the NFL's worst record is debatable in...

(AP) — The Detroit Lions have gotten quite a return on the $132 million, eight-year investment they made in Calvin Johnson nine months ago. "He's not trying to live up to a contract," Detroit coach Jim Schwartz said Sunday.

(AP) — Over their last three home games, the Detroit Lions have been good enough to be ahead of some of the NFL's better teams — Green Bay, Houston and Indianapolis — with less than 2 minutes to go. They lost every one of those games, leaving the Lions with twice as many losses as wins with four games left — including Sunday night at Gre...

(AP) — Rex Ryan is as loyal as an NFL coach possibly can be, and his decision Wednesday to stick with Mark Sanchez at quarterback was the logical move for now. Staying with Sanchez has its pitfalls, too, and Ryan could be staking not only Sanchez's future with the New York Jets on what happens in the final four weeks of the season, but ...

He flipped the ball to Donnie Avery and hoped his 5-foot-11 receiver could win a race to the end zone. "I had no choice but to score," Avery said.

Of course, the Cowboys have also had a temporary center and backups starting at two other spots on the offensive line. And they fall behind almost every week. Any of the above could explain why Dallas has the NFL's worst rushing offense, and one of the mo...
