Clutch Encounters: Week 6

We had nine games with a comeback opportunity this week, and six teams put together a game-winning drive. Two efforts were spoiled, at least momentarily, by a missed extra point that would have tied the game in the fourth quarter. Those are quite rare, with the 2003 Saints having the most infamous example ever following the River City Relay against Jacksonville. However, the NFL's new 33-yard extra point makes it likely that we will see more of these in the future. Great, like we needed more losses to blame on the kicker when he misses a 95-percent kick.
