The 12th week of the 2024 National Football League regular season is now finished. Here are the top five headlines.

5) No Daniel Jones.

The New York Giants released their former starting quarterback and first round pick on Friday. According to Jordan Dajani of CBS Sports, it was at Daniel Jones’s request. With Jones at the helm for the Giants, New York only won two of 10 football games this season. On Sunday, with Tommy DeVito quarterbacking, New York got spanked 30-7 by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.


4) Browns deliver upset in the snow.

One of the more intriguing games in Week 12 came on Thursday as the Cleveland Browns beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 24-19 in heavy snow. Four-time Pro Bowler Nick Chubb of Cedartown, Georgia had two touchdown runs. The Browns were one of four NFL franchises to deliver an upset in Week 12. The other three were the Seattle Seahawks, Tennessee Titans and Dallas Cowboys.


3) Cowboys win wild one in Washington.

It has been a tough season for the Cowboys. You can make the argument their season ended on November 3 when Dak Prescott tore his hamstring against the Atlanta Falcons. On Sunday, the Cowboys upset the Washington Commanders 34-26 in a wild one in the American capital. There were 41 points scored in the fourth quarter, the Cowboys recorded two touchdowns from a kickoff return, in addition to there being one blocked punt, and two missed converts.


2) John Harbaugh beats his brother again.

For the third time in three games, John Harbaugh beat Jim Harbaugh. Yes, the last two games took place over a decade ago while Jim was still coaching the San Francisco 49ers. On Monday night in the Harbaugh Bowl III, the Baltimore Ravens beat the Los Angeles Chargers 30-23. Once again it was a great performance from Ravens running back Derrick Henry of Yulee, Florida. He had 140 rushing yards as the Ravens improved to a record of eight wins and four losses.


1) Saquon Barkley sets Eagles franchise record for most rushing yards in a game.

It was a memorable Sunday night for Eagles running back Saquon Barkley of the Bronx, New York. Barkley set the Eagles franchise record for most rushing yards in a game (255) in a 37-20 Philadelphia win over the Los Angeles Rams. Why am I doing terrible this season in my own fantasy pool? Well, I kept Jonathan Taylor over Barkley in September! (And I also drafted Anthony Richardson over Joe Burrow, and my top receiver Brandon Aiyuk is done for the year!)
