NFL Week 15 Recap & Game Highlights

Dec 15, 2025

NFL Week 15 scores saw division battles tighten, former greats eliminated, and contenders become more clear across the league. After a loaded Sunday around the NFL, there’s plenty to unpack in the Week 15 highlights – plus, BET99 NFL odds for Week 16.

BET99 has your NFL Week 15 recap, highlighted by the biggest Week 15 results and looking ahead to Week 16 betting predictions.

What Happened in NFL Week 15?

Bills 35 – 31 Patriots

(Buffalo -2.5)

A 28-point second half for the Buffalo Bills not only kept them within touching distance of the New England Patriots in the AFC East, but served as a platform for a potential back-to-back MVP nods for Josh Allen.

Chargers 16 – 13 Chiefs

(L.A. +6)

A season from hell for the Kansas City Chiefs ended in a nightmare manner, with official playoff elimination coinciding with a torn ACL for Patrick Mahomes. The Chiefs head into a pivotal offseason, while the L.A. Chargers head toward an impressive playoff trip amid an injury-riddled season.

Rams 41 – 34 Lions

(L.A. -5.5)

Four days out from the biggest game of the season, the L.A. Rams continued to prove their quality with a decisive win over a Detroit Lions team running out of rope in 2025. While the Rams could more-or-less lock up the NFC’s No. 1 seed with a win next week, the Lions’ playoff hopes have reached the brink.

NFL Week 15 Power Rankings 2025

  1. L.A. Rams
    The Rams dealt the Lions a playoff-hopes blow, and continued to cement themselves as the league’s best in 2025.

  2. Buffalo Bills
    Josh Allen has rounded into form as the league’s most unstoppable player, and regardless of if the Bills can catch the Patriots or not, the AFC should fear these Bills.

  3. Denver Broncos
    On the short end of a disrespectful line in Week 15, the Broncos continued to roll against a strong Packers team and put themselves in line for the conference’s No. 1 seed.

  4. Seattle Seahawks
    An ugly win against Philip Rivers and the Indianapolis Colts was the precursor for a potentially season-defining meeting with the Rams on Thursday night.

  5. New England Patriots
    The Pats couldn’t hold onto a comfortable lead against Buffalo, and while their division lead may help them get over the line and hosting a playoff game, their place in the AFC hierarchy is worth questioning.

  6. Houston Texans
    Between the league’s most fearsome defense and a revitalized CJ Stroud, the Texans are emerging as one of the toughest outs league wide.

  7. San Francisco 49ers
    After cruising by the Titans, the 49ers get to watch the Rams and Seahawks fight it out on Thursday – then potentially pick up a game on the loser come Sunday.

  8. Green Bay Packers
    A potentially division-deciding game looms on Saturday against the Bears, but first the Pack need to reckon with the loss of superstar pass rusher Micah Parsons.

  9. Philadelphia Eagles
    The Philadelphia Eagles snapped a three-game losing skid against Kenny Pickett and the Las Vegas Raiders – which doesn’t really serve to teach us anything about where this team is.

  10. Jacksonville Jaguars
    Trevor Lawrence put together an outrageous line against a hapless Jets team on Sunday, as the Jaguars continue staying a step ahead of the Texans in an unexpected division race.
