The 32 things we learned from Week 16 of the 2021 NFL season:

1. Finally, some semblance of clarity – in the NFC anyway – to what we’ll see in January. Going into Week 16, only the NFC North champion Green Bay Packers had clinched a playoff spot. But five more teams have joined them: the Arizona Cardinals, Dallas Cowboys, Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Rams and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

2. No one’s hotter than K.C., which has won a league-best eight in a row. And the story continues to be the Chiefs defense, which has allowed 61 total points over its past six home games.

5. The surging Indianapolis Colts are 9-0 when RB Jonathan Taylor rushes for 100 yards … and 0-6 when he doesn’t.

6. Amazing performance Sunday by second-year Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow, whose 525 passing yards are the fourth most in a single game (and 29 shy of Norm Van Brocklin’s 70-year-old…
