It was another exciting week of NFL action. Week 14 of the schedule featured some fantastic finishes and surprising upsets. That included the Chicago Bears getting a win over the L.A. Rams on Sunday night (December 9) and the Miami Dolphins with a final sequence full of lateral passes to take down the Patriots. Below are five stars who stood out in the Week 14 wins.

1

Patrick Mahomes - Kansas City Chiefs

The odds-on-favorite to win NFL MVP is still Patrick Mahomes. On Sunday, the Chiefs' sophomore sensation threw for 377 yards and two touchdowns, as Kansas City edged Baltimore, 27-24 in overtime.

2

Andrew Luck - Indianapolis Colts

The Indianapolis Colts are making a push for the postseason. Andrew Luck stepped it up on Sunday with 399 yards and two touchdowns on 27-of-41 passing. That helped his Colts defeat the Texans and keep the playoff hopes alive.

3

Amari Cooper - Dallas Cowboys

Cooper has been a great pickup for Jerry Jones and the Cowboys, as they march toward a potential playoff entry. In Sunday's exciting division game against Philadelphia, Cooper had 10 receptions for 217 yards and three touchdowns, including the game-winner in overtime.

4

Saquon Barkley - New York Giants

Just like Mahomes is odds-on-favorite to win MVP, one has to think that's the case for Barkley and NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year. Sunday's Giants' win over the Redskins further illustrated that. Barkley had 14 carries for 170 yards and a touchdown on the ground. He also racked up 27 yards receiving in the 40-16 win.

5

Derek Carr - Oakland Raiders

It's been a mostly disappointing season for fans of the black and silver, but Sunday's game showed some life. Derek Carr led the Raiders to a comeback win against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Carr threw for 322 yards and two touchdowns on 25-of-34 passing.
