Nate Tice & Charles McDonald give their instant reactions and takeaways from Week 17 of NFL action. After providing takeaways from the San Francisco 49ers' shootout win over the Chicago Bears on Sunday night, the duo provide their 3 Highs, 3 Lows from a wild week around the NFL. The highs include the Philadelphia Eagles holding off the Buffalo Bills late, the Las Vegas Raiders getting the inside track on the first overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft over the New York Giants and the Houston Texans winning their eighth straight on Saturday over the Los Angeles Chargers.
For the lows, Nate & Charles hit on the Green Bay Packers showing they can't be trusted in a loss to the Baltimore Ravens, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Carolina Panthers acting like they're not interested in winning the NFC South and the Pittsburgh Steelers proving unable to clinch the division against the Cleveland Browns.
For Extra Credit, the duo discuss Drake Maye's huge 5-TD performance and Trey McBride setting records for the Arizona Cardinals.
