NFL Week 14: Stefanski Makes a Bad Call; Eagles Lose 3 Straight; Bengals Squander Another Lead

What is up, everybody? In this episode of Touchdown and Ties, Daddy and I wrap up week 14 of the NFL. We discuss the very interesting decision by Kevin Stefanski to take Shedeur Sanders out of the game against the Titans. We talk about the season shocker of the now 16% chance playoff hopeful Kansas Chiefs and their loss to the Texans. The Bengals squander another 4th quarter lead? Are we surprised? Unfortunately, no. The Chargers beat the Eagles who have now lost 3 in a row. And we finish off in the NFC as the Packers beat the Bears in a thriller and the devastating season that continues for the Commanders.
