168000 NFL Fans Missed Playoff Rally Amid Ice and Snow
The NFL opened December with brutal weather that kept about 168000 fans away while St. Louis and Minnesota clinched playoff berths. St. Louis edged Kansas City 17-13 as Philadelphia beat Green Bay, 36-14, assuring the Cards at least a wild card. Minnesota won 29-9 over New Orleans to seal the NFC Central. Other outcomes included Oakland 41, New England 26 and Buffalo 60 at Baltimore in a rain-soaked schedule with several meaningless games drawing sparse attendance.
