NFL Week 17 grades: Steelers receive ‘A’ as offense explodes again; Eagles get ‘F’ for shocking loss to Cards

Welcome to the Week 17 grades!

On the final day of 2023, the NFL gave us some fireworks with 14 games on the Sunday schedule, and most of those fireworks came from the Baltimore Ravens, who absolutely destroyed the Dolphins, 56-19, in the biggest game of the day. 

With the win, the Ravens have now clinched the No. 1 seed in the AFC. On the other hand, with the loss, the Dolphins are no longer a sure thing to win the AFC East. The 11-5 Dolphins will now be facing the 10-6 Bills in Week 18 with the winner taking the division crown. 

In the NFC, the 49ers now have the No. 1 seed locked up after beating the Commanders, combined with losses by both the Lions (to the Cowboys) and Eagles (to the Cardinals). 

Now that we have that out of the way, let’s get to the grades, starting with the Ravens’ huge win:
