NFL Week 15 takeaways: Lessons, big questions for every game

Welcome to Week 15 of the 2022 NFL season, where the playoff picture is beginning to take shape.

On Thursday, rookie quarterback Brock Purdy helped the San Francisco 49ers clinch the NFC West by beating the division-rival Seattle Seahawks.

Saturday's three-game slate started with the Minnesota Vikings hosting the Indianapolis Colts, who built a 33-0 halftime lead before Kirk Cousins and the Vikings pulled off the biggest comeback in NFL history -- clinching the NFC North in the process. In the afternoon contest, the Cleveland Browns rode a stingy defense and uncharacteristic Justin Tucker misses to beat the Baltimore Ravens in Cleveland.
