By The Pigskin Of Our Teeth, Week 11

In Which A Prophecy Is Fulfilled, The Pulse Slows, And The First Goodbyes Are Said

ALL HAIL KING MARVIN. This is astounding. Chad, unlike his cousin, can actually back up his talk. Peter Warrick! Are you making this up? Rudi runs wild AGAIN while Priest doesn't break 100 total yards. They're gonna win that division because it's just so bad. Hey, you know who I don't want to be right now? The Raiders.

Why can't this happen every week? A nice, easy, comfortable win where everything goes right. Oh, here's why the Eagles cut Brian Mitchell: He can't run anymore. This goal-line stand was not on par with the seven-play one against Arizona some years back, but it was still impressive. Brian Westbrook, Giant killa. Fassel's all but gone now.

Texans-Bills. Moving on. Ravens-Dolphins. Moving on. Jaguars-Titans. Moving the FUCK on. Who booked this crap? (At least I didn't have to watch any of it.)

After further review, I think Davis got in. And while it wasn't the most emphatic "fuck you" to Spurrier he could have delivered, it sure was effective.

And now we know where Warrick's been for the past five years - hanging out in a cave with RICK MIRER. Only fifteen rushes against a team that can't stop the run? And now Moss is starting to whine again. This isn't good.

So the Packers went down to Tampa, gave up zero sacks, and ran the ball down their throats for the game-winning touchdown. CHAD CLIFTON HAS BEEN AVENGED. Please tell me I wasn't the only one hoping Gruden would start channelling Mora. Then this happened today. It's over.

Everybody who picked the Cowboys to win Sunday night should be ashamed of themselves. Did you not think that Belichick would come up with a scheme that would eventually confuse the hell out of poor Quincy? The commentators kept referencing the Tampa game a few weeks back, and that's essentially what this was. Heck, the score was almost the same. I think Leary was the only other guy in A! who picked the Pats.

Fantasy Report: Plummer with three TD passes to Sharpe. GAME. OVER. And I had Westbrook on the bench. I paid zero attention to the Monday night game because I didn't need the points. I'm thinking I might just switch to 2 WR/3 RB because Bruce isn't scoring any touchdowns. Four of the six 5-5 teams won, so I am now in fourth place with the red-hot Dr. Cube as my next opponent (He's won five in a row.) Chris beat Chaz, so there are no more unbeatens here, either. Poor Nate. Got 106 points and LOST.

TOP 3:
1. Indianapolis - 38 without Harrison and Pollard? Daaaaaaaaamn
2. Carolina - Hey, Rob, guess what? You were right
3. Kansas City - It was bound to happen sooner or later

BOTTOM 3:
30. Jacksonville - I'll ask again: What's the plan here?
31. San Diego - Why leave Flutie in down 34-0?
32. Atlanta - Mike, come home
