We're looking back on the first half of the 2014 NFL season and picking our superlatives at the midway point, with Shutdown Corner writers Eric Edholm, Jay Busbee and Frank Schwab weighing in.

Here are the plays that have impacted this season most:
Eric Edholm: Lamarr Houston's sack celebration leads to a torn ACL
Influential and indicative of how disappointing the Bears have been to this point. The guy is celebrating a sack against a rookie from Eastern Illinois, down 29 points. Nah, but the Bears are fine.
Jay Busbee: Colin Kaepernick's fumble at the goal line against St. Louis
You can't give away--literally give away--wins like that, not in a division that's as tight as the NFC West. That could haunt San Francisco in December.
Frank Schwab: Tony Romo suffers two fractures in his back on a sack
The Cowboys were the story of the NFL at 6-1. Then Tony Romo got sacked by Washington's Keenan Robinson, a play that we'd find out later caused two small fractures in the transverse process of his back. Dallas lost that game, lost the next one with Brandon Weeden starting, and as we head into the second half we have no idea if Romo will look like his usual self again this season.
