Week 16 of the NFL season means the regular season is coming to an end, but there is still a lot of work to be done. This week had some Christmas cheer, but it was not without some contention.
Here is how it all played out on Twitter.
Josh Norman and Taylor Lewan got into an altercation after Lewan mocked Norman by making a bow-and-arrow gesture toward him.

December 23, 2018 I read Josh Norman’s lips and he definitely said “You’re not as good at playing football as you think you are so you should stop being mean to me”

December 23, 2018 So much fake toughness. This is why I require players on youth football team I coach fist fight each other. If you aren’t willing to throw a haymaker, keep your mouth shut.

December 23, 2018 Not sure what’s more entertaining: seeing Lewan hit him with the bow and arrow, or seeing these ridiculous cry baby responses from Redskins fans --

December 23, 2018 Huge eruption moments ago in Patriots locker room, as a result of Eagles field goal. “F—— yeah!!!!!!” was heard loudly, with another player saying, “The kick is good!” They were watching closely, with lots of emotion, after their win over the Bills.
