NFL rushing leader Todd Gurley of the Los Angeles Rams is
inactive for Sunday¡¯s home regular-season finale against the San Francisco
49ers. Gurley will finish the regular season with
1
Brian
Burns Jersey ,305 yards rushing. Also resting for the playoffs are center
John Sullivan, left tackle Andrew Whitworth and defensive tackle Aaron Donald.
The Rams clinched the NFC West title last weekend and first-year coach Sean
McVay is opting to rest several of his stars. Quarterback Jared Goff is expected
to get the day off but is active as the backup to Sean Mannion, who will make
his first career start. Carolina running back Jonathan Stewart is inactive for
the first time this season against Atlanta. Stewart had seen a diminished role
the past two weeks. He had only seven carries for 19 yards in last week¡¯s win
over Tampa Bay, but was still listed as the Panthers¡¯ starter. Stewart¡¯s exit
leaves Christian McCaffrey as the probable starter. Jacksonville is locked in as
the third seed in the AFC, but is sitting only two starters against Tennessee:
left tackle Cam Robinson, who left last week¡¯s game with an abdominal strain,
and receiver Marqise Lee (ankle). Derrick Henry is getting the first start of
his two-year NFL career with DeMarco Murray scratched for the first time since
joining the Titans. Murray is out with an injured right knee. Denver running
back Jamaal Charles will sit out against Kansas City, his former team. Charles
was a four-time Pro Bowler with the Chiefs, but never found a groove with the
Broncos this season. His past month reads like this: No carries in two games,
inactive for two games. Rookie quarterback Patrick Mahomes will start for Kansas
City in place of Alex Smith. Inactives for Sunday¡¯s late games: CAROLINA-ATLANTA

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) ¡ª If things go right, the New England Patriots won¡¯t have
to play another road game until a potential Super Bowl appearance.That would be
welcome news for a team that takes a 7-0 home record into Sunday¡¯s
regular-season finale against the New York Jets ¡ª and is just 3-5 on the
road.¡°Trust me, I wish I knew the answer to that,¡± safety Duron Harmon said
Thursday when asked about the home/road disparity. ¡°At the end of the day, I
mean . our fans are great, they¡¯re loud, they¡¯re here, they¡¯re supporting us. As
far as the road
woes
Jonah
Williams Jersey , I really don¡¯t know. I wish we could have the answer to
that because then we would fix it.¡°We¡¯re working on it. We¡¯re worried about
being a consistent football team, getting better so that when an opportunity
comes to play on the road down the road we¡¯ll make sure we¡¯re ready to go. But
right now we¡¯re just focusing on winning this Jets game.¡±There are two paths
that could keep the Patriots, who wrapped up their 10th straight division title
last week, from another road game. Both require help from outside ¨C one requires
A LOT of help.Assuming New England finishes off an 8-0 home slate with a win
over the Jets, one of the teams the Patriots have beaten on the road, here are
two ways to set up two home playoff games:¡ªBoth the Kansas City Chiefs and Los
Angeles Chargers lose Sunday, playing at home against weaker opponents,Oakland
and Denver, respectively.Very unlikely.¡ªThe Chiefs or Chargers lose their first
playoff game to one of the wild cards.Possible.Asked if he¡¯d just as soon put
off testing the road record until next year, Harmon said, ¡°Oh for sure,¡± and
added, ¡°The only thing we¡¯re focused on right now is just winning this week.¡±¡°We
know we are. We know that we have about five losses on the road,¡± said Rob
Gronkowski. About?¡°But we really never put any thought into it, like why we¡¯re
7-0 at home and we¡¯re 3-5 on the road. It just shows how tough it is to go play
in the NFL, to go and win a road game.¡°I¡¯ve been playing for a few (nine) years
now and no doubt about it, going on the road is definitely tough in the NFL. ¡
You gotta deal with it ¨C we got the Jets this week and we¡¯re home, so our main
focus is on them and what we gotta do to beat them.¡±A loss would eliminate any
shot at the conference¡¯s top seed.The Patriots, the only undefeated home team in
the NFL, have outscored their seven home opponents 225-130. They have been
outscored on the road 192-173.After winning at home to start the season, the
Patriots sustained back-to-back road losses at Jacksonville and Detroit, two
teams that are a combined 8-20 against the other teams in the league. There was
a big win at Chicago before a blowout loss at Tennessee, and then the losses at
Miami (that miracle final play) and Pittsburgh.Said safety Devin McCourty: ¡°At
the end of the day I would just say we didn¡¯t play well on the road. You can
probably go through each game and there would be some similarity, some
differences ¨C but for whatever reason we just didn¡¯t get it going on the road
the way we needed to.¡°Some of the game early in the season just were basically
no contest. We lost basically the last two games, Miami and Pittsburgh, one
play; one play changes the game. Some of that was football and some of that was
just not getting off to a good start.¡±NOTES: After Tom Brady reiterated on his
weekly Westwood One radio spot that he intends to play again next year ¡ª Brady
never has said anything other than that ¡ª Gronkowski, amid speculation he might
retire after the season, refused to get into his personal situation Thursday. ¡°I
haven¡¯t been thinking about that at all,¡± said Gronk, who nearly quit the game
after last season. ¡°We¡¯re on the last game going into Week 17, we got the Jets,
and that¡¯s all I¡¯m really worried about as of now.¡± Asked if he¡¯s still enjoying
playing, he said, ¡°Yeah. Definitely.¡±
