Mario Williams' forced fumble, safety is best of Week 15

Week 15's Top 10 "Performance Moments of the Week" presented by Bridgestone winner came up big in the weekend's unlikeliest upset.

Aaron Rodgers was tasked with salvaging a rough afternoon into a late win for the Packers. Enter the Bills' defense and Mario Williams. With 1:58 remaining and down 19-13, Rodgers dropped back. Williams barely beat JC Tretter off the edge to swat the ball out of the MVP frontrunner's right hand, resulting in a safety. Williams ensured Buffalo's first non-losing season since 2004. 

At No. 2: The Dolphins battled in the first half against the New England Patriots, down by one point by halftime. But Mike Wallace was responsible for a leaping one-handed catch that resulted in a 32-yard touchdown reception to bring the 'Fins to 14-13. This was the kind of play we expected out of Bill Lazor's offense before the season: Ryan Tannehill going deep down the sideline to the speedy Wallace.

Also making the countdown: A pirouetting Mike Evans hauls in a pretty 8-yard touchdown. ... Bengals running back Jeremy Hill found the end zone for the second time after laying a vicious stiff arm on Browns safety Jim Leonhard. ... William Gay had a pretty pick six against Matt Ryan, putting the Steelers up 13-0 at the top of the second quarter.
