Five observations on Week 13 in the NFL:
Patriots in danger of losing first round bye in playoffs
The Patriots, who started out 10-0, lost their second game in a row when they fell to Philadelphia, 35-28, Sunday. They’re now tied with Cincinnati and Denver at 10-2 in the AFC, but the Bengals and Broncos have the tie-breakers and the Patriots are currently the third seed. Unless, they get one of the top two seeds, they lose the first round bye. And even Bill Belichick is being second-guessed. He decided to have former rugby kicker Nate Ebner try an onside kick with the Patriots leading 14-0 in the second period.
