OK, everyone take a deep breath.

As expected, Week 18 of the 2021-22 NFL Season delivered some nail-biting exchanges. The Las Vegas Raiders survived a late surge by the Los Angeles Chargers and won 35-32 in overtime. In another overtime game, the San Francisco 49ers claimed the last playoff spot in the NFC by squeaking out a 27-24 win against the Los Angeles Rams.

In a shocking twist, the Jacksonville Jaguars, who had won just two games all season, defeated the Indianapolis Colts 26-11.
