This Week in the NFL (13)

Exciting weekend for football.

Let's see what happens.

I was thrilled to waste 3 hours of my life watching the crappy Giants play the crappy Eagles and have David Akers 57 yard attempt clank off of the upright on his birthday. Goddamn Eagles. Oh well, it's draft position time.

I can't believe the Cowboys pulled out a win against the Lions. Ridiculous.

Patriots are ahead of the Steelers, 24-13, it's not looking good...

Mmmmm, another win for my Vikings

We had 3 defensive tackles get interceptions, a new NFL record.

And I'd like to thank the Cowboys for beating the Lions. Increases our chances for getting a wildcard spot in the playoffs.

Yep, one step closer to 16-0 and 0-16 in the same division. That would be nuts.

The Patriots assforked the Steelers. Brady was a machine! 399 yards, and man did he make it look easy. That's what I think I hate about Tom Brady the most. He's probably the only QB in the NFL who just sits in the pocket all day making it look easy. I mean damn, at least Romo and Petyon Manning scramble every once in a while. Favre is always on the move and before his knee injury McNabb was a pretty mobile. Credit to New England's O-line. I still foresee the Patriots losing to the Dolphins or the Jets. That's the only upset I want to or will call this season.

As a Bear's fan I'm pretty used to being disappointed, and this year has been nothing short of disappointing. I'm just crossing my fingers and praying that Kyle Orton plays next week.

Hopefully we will see a rematch of the Pittsburgh game in the playoffs, its fairly likely I think. Might have been a different game if Polomalu was playing.

This is what will win NE the Superbowl this year. I've never seen a QB have more time to stand in the pocket without having to move a step while making his reads. It makes it impossible for defenders to cover any receivers let alone Randy Moss and company. You get pressure on Brady, and the offense looks normal. Problem is, nobody is doing it. The Colts did a bit, the Eagles did a bit, and the Ravens did a bit. What else did those 3 games have in common?

In a related note, it's nice to see Dungy making a point of taking out Manning and all of the other notable players extra early. No need to go out of your way to put up stupid stats and throw it 45 times on a team down by 30. Great game overall from the Colts.

Couldnt agree more. I would like nothing more than to see Brady hurt late in the 4th quarter, Patriots up by 30, when there's no reason he should be playing.
