LOL freudian slip.....I guess I was pulling for the Lions that badly  I not only enjoy the Cowboys losing, but its now the Giants great advantage if they do. Sooooo cmon skins do something good! Edit: Aw yeah Garcon! I love that guy, mainly that crazy hooked C he has. And ya know a decent receiver.

Jody pick your poison, maybe you can have Kevin Gilbride who believes it's fine to go 20 yards, every play regardless of the situation  Except he always runs on every 2nd down...what a whack job!

It's pretty weak this year, which of course is good for you and bad for us since the Pats could have another easy road deep into the playoffs (thank god Tebow isn't around to give em another guaranteed win) Crazy things may happen but I still will be shocked if the AFC game isn't Texans/Broncos. With Denver taking it. NFC is gunna be fun. Lots of very good teams, maybe none great, flaws with all. Epic finale ensues. Hell, even the Saints can go on a tear and sneak in the playoffs, which when you're in we know all bets are off.

I will be very thankful, if both the Cowboys and Pats lose! IDK Dennis Moore, the brutal second half last year was supposed to the be the Giants downfall... Anywho, some great teams ahead but the Packers just aren't quite the same. The Redskins still have no one outside of RG3, the Saints and Falcons are the most worrisome, the Ravens just keep giving you a "meh" feeling and the Eagles are toast. I'm not scared by the paper! I think it's not unrealistic to say the Giants can win 4 of the next 6. I do think Eli and co. will got the offense back on track, the complete lack of defense is my concern. But they have gone from sh*t to 85 Bears before. Gotta pray it happens again Edit: I forgot! Kenny Phillips is coming back, if he can play at his normal level it will be a big help. Solid safety, and we need all the help possible.

The Steelers made a move to get some old players in the line up to
replace the injured Big Ben, he must be gone for a while or they
realized that they didn't have a proper back up to Big Ben. I don't know
if it's going to be the answer to make the playoff but it's a start.

Ah, bout time somebody mentioned my beloved Redskins.....  Sorry for the long delay guys, but now seems like the time where the NY Giant's BRUTAL sched will do them in. I hate to even think it but I do think the Cowpies will win on Thanksgiving and overtake the Giants to win the NFC East. Life is so good when anybody BUT the Cowpies wins the NFC East. heck, the Giants won 2 Super Bowls in the last 5 years and I was actually happy for them.  Can anybody tell me how many more games will Redskins fans need to suffer with those retards: Mike & boy Shanahan???

Reason I can't give it to Houston: Losing Brian Cushing has hurt, they
really have little pass rush outside JJ "The Swat" Watt, Foster has been
solid but not his usual beast mode, not much outside Andre Johnson. Will be a great team but I think in the end their lack of depth will be the downfall. They just seem very reliant on a few guys.
Losing McGahee sucks but they'll be fine. Denver can pull one of us off the street and have us run for 100 yards behind their blocks.
I'd love a Denver/Houston game anyway. Either way would be a great result.
I STILL say Frisco is the most solid complete NFC team, and has the players at each position. I was high on Smith but he seems to be the only liability now.

And I was hoping for a defensive slugfest!
Yikes.
San Fran total dominance. O line manhandled Chicago, Gore then ran like a banshee, this Kapernick looked great, receivers breaking tackles and getting tons of yards after catch. Defense just pwned Chicago in every facet.
Damn this is a beatdown.
I still stick with my original San Fran/Denver SB!

^ but you might be right, they are desperate for someone who can actually catch the ball. Sure, Mike wallace is fast but you need to catch the ball first.

Yeah, that Bears D seems to have absolutely no answer to anything the Niners are doing offensively. Of course, the Niners are doing so many things offensively tonight (as Gruden was kind enough to point out) that I don't see how a defense can keep up with it. Or their offense for that matter.
Also, Plaxico Burress supposedly met with the Steelers earlier today. I could actually see them signing him considering how beat up their WR core is right now.

Houston would have tap danced their way into the Super Bowl, last year, had Schaub not been injured. Top to bottom they are still better than any other team in the AFC so they'd be my favorite at this point. Denver just lost McGahee for 6-8 weeks and I wouldn't imagine he'd come back at 100%, when he does, which will allow opposing defenses to key more on the passing attack. Still a very good team (always liked the coach) but we'll see how they adapt.

Texans are a better team, but if the Broncos defense keeps scoring tds it's close.

Nah the Ravens really aren't very good. They are a solidteam and the AFC is really weak right now, so they will end up with a great record and maybe advance in the playoffs but I expect them to flop.
oh also the play calling on the Ravens is hideous. Yikes, I can't believe Flacco gets anything done.
I really don't think the Stillers are very good either.
I still stick with my darkhorse Broncos (ya like that??) though they are getting more attention now.
Moment Peyton showed he was healthy they were my AFC pick for the SB, and still are.

What I don't get is if you are averaging 5 yards a carry why not just keep on running and wear them out. 2x5=10.First down. As for Baltimore.......I did not see anything which made me think they were super bowl material. I was more impressed with Cincinnati.

I still don't think the Ravens are that good, so the season's not quite over yet. The Steelers certainly aren't equipt to make a deep run without Ben but they also only play 1 team with a winning record the rest of the season. The 1 winning record team they do play is the same no pass, no run, no answer for a power runner (other than the opposing coach inexplicably taking him out of the game every series after 2-3 touches) team they played last night that can only beat an injured Byron Leftwich with 2 turnovers and a punt return.
