Sunday’s NFL action had a little bit of everything, including a game that finished in a tie. I know some people think ties are a hoot but I’m not one of those people and I wish they could find a cool way to decide things if we’re still tied after 10 minutes.
But let’s move on from that Washington-New York Giants draw and look at some fun things that we saw happen Sunday.
Aaron Rodgers had fun saluting the fans in Chicago after leading a come-from-behind win for the Packers.
Mike McDaniel and Tua Tagovailoa had another classic sideline moment.
Oh, and A.J. Brown had a huge day against his former team as the Eagles moved to 11-1.
Let’s now have some more fun and hand out awards for the good, the bad, and the hilarious from Sunday’s action.
The best TD celebration done while twerking: This one by Minnesota’s Alexander Mattison.
Mattison will probably be fined for this but it was worth it because this was hilarious:

Most honest sign held by a fan at a game: This sign in Chicago.
I don’t think this happened for the two teams playing in Chicago.

The most honest thing maybe ever said by a coach: This statement from Mike McDaniel
Cameras caught Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel telling Tua Tagovailoa after a bad play: “I [expletived] that up,” which is something you don’t hear very often from a coach.
Rare words from a HC. You don’t hear that much in the moment. pic.twitter.com/49O5xXEd6H

The best one-handed catch that didn’t count: This one by Ja’Marr Chase.
