What happened: On Nightcap, Shannon Sharpe said Aaron Rodgers willed Pittsburgh past Tampa Bay in overtime while playing under persistent pressure. Sharpe said Rodgers escaped a late interception that hit a defender's hands and fell incomplete.

Why it matters: Sharpe tied the result to a 4-2 logjam atop the AFC North. He noted Cincinnati sat 3-2 during its bye, leaving no separation in the division.

What to watch: Sharpe said the test is whether Rodgers stays hot and protects the ball.
