WTF we had Cornish hens last year too.
The interception where Roy fell down... that's basically the story of the Lions, isn't it? If they were gonna do that, why not just have Garcia start the game? There won't be much funnier this season than Buck and Aikman trying to pass off the blame for the Galloping Gobbler onto the producers. Except maybe Vick's reaction to winning it. Me, Week 6: "Seriously, NFL coaches don't get fired midseason anymore." The lesson, as always...
This one should be good. Nice pick by Champ. The Cowboys have done a good job keeping the Broncos' ground game relatively in check. And you're not going to believe this, but Plummer actually threw an interception. That's a bad miss by Cundiff. RON DAYNE LIVES!!! Champ: "I guess we're livin' right."

First time seeing Da Bears this year -- they get great pressure with their front four and don't blitz nearly as much as the '85 defense did. Like right there with the fumble. This should be easy points and we're not going to see a lot of those. Bryant... misses? Ouch. Okay, so the Bears offense is suspect at best (even though I still maintain that, with time, Orton will turn out better than Grossman would have), but that defense is the real deal.
Who are you, and what have you done with Tom Brady? And should I ask the same question of the Chiefs' DBs?
Have I crossed off the Rams yet? No? They're getting waxed by the Texans, for God's sake. "Ryan Fitzpatrick" really sounds more like a pitcher's name than a quarterback's. And slowly but surely the Texans are regaining consciousness. Okay, what happened in the last minute? Wow. The Texans got beat by a Harvard man. They'd probably get beat by Harvard.
Karma's a bitch, ain't it, Dan Snyder? *crosses off Redskins*
"Looks like about a 20-footer for Johnson... he's made tougher putts than this..."
Now Buck and Aikman have to be thinking to themselves, "What the hell are we doing here?" PROTECT THE FOOTBALL. Nice move by Westbrook. It may be boring, but it's all they've got at this point, and let's remember: Mike McMahon is your quarterback. Oh, and there's the defense giving up big plays again. Ack. Huh. The left side of Philly's line is all new and they're not doing so bad. Favre's never won here? Really? PROTECT THE FOOTBALL. How is that roughing? How? And it ends up not really mattering. Where's Aaron Rodgers?
The Leftwich injury may have made things a lot easier for the Chargers.
Play action! I'm not sure how that works when Alexander hasn't done a whole lot but I'm OK with it. Nice foot drag by Toomer. Are we sure Shockey stayed in? Do the Seahawks want to win this game? (waits two minutes) Do the Giants want to win this game? Eleven false starts? That's unfathomable. Do the Giants want to win this game? Can a guy be cut in the middle of a game? Is that possible? Tiki, before the third miss: "I will give you my house if he misses this one." I think we're gonna need a notary public.
This Week It Sucks To Be: 1. Jay Feely, 2. Matt Bryant, 3. Billy Cundiff, 4. John Hall, 5. Jeff Reed.
All right, Joe, you need to calm down with that "Haslett for Coach of the Year" talk. I don't know why the rules are the way they are but I can't justify overturning the Coles touchdown. Are you like me and would have rather watched the Grey Cup instead of this?
That's... exactly the opposite of the way the Steelers wanted to start this game. That's gonna be a bad matchup all night; the Steelers' corners have been their weak spot for years. Has Peyton missed yet? Ah, there's one. I'm quite disappointed in the lack of touchdowns tonight. What was that? An onside kick? That's a sign of panic if I ever saw one. Notice how many of Ben's throws aren't going where they look like they should be going -- I'm thinking of one in particular in the third where it looked like he lobbed it and it ended up being almost a line drive. I'm not going to say whether the Colts can do it or not.
FANTASY REPORT aPa SmackDown! (7-5, W2, clinched playoff berth): I led Nate by .02 after Sunday's games and we had about every relevant Colt except for Peyton. But Marvin gave me the edge and I won 89-57 and THE SEAGULLS ARE BACK IN THE PLAYOFFS! Now to figure out how best to avoid Weeba and LDT in the first round.
JackSux (9-3, W1): The Falcons' defense gave me a 20-point lead on Gates on Thanksgiving and I cruised from there. Now it's about getting that first-round bye -- Rob, Jen and I have the same record, and I'm only 73 points ahead of third-place Jen.
