Chicago Bears SS Major Wright said Detroit Lions QB Matthew Stafford folds under pressure. "You've got Matthew Stafford," Wright said. "He's definitely having an OK season. He can make any throw on that field, so you have to be aware of putting pressure on him because you put a little pressure on him, he kind of folds. You put a little pressure on him, you close the pocket on him, he hesitates. He doesn't make that perfect throw."

Seattle Seahawks WR Sidney Rice (head) was shaken up on the final play of the Week 13 game against the Chicago Bears, his 13-yard touchdown reception in overtime. Bears SS Major Wright crushed him at the goal line, jarring the ball loose after breaking the plane. Rice remained down for several moments, but was able to walk to the sideline with teammate WR Golden Tate under his own power. He was answering questions after the game, so it appears a concussion has been averted.
