Hard fought win in Detroit.  The offense is clicking but injuries on defense mean this team better not cool off before the playoffs.

San Francisco 49ers (8-2-1)

QB controversy in SF is made easier by an easier than expected win against the Saints. If the D keeps playing like that doesn’t matter who is at QB.

Baltimore Ravens (9-2)

Thanks to Ray Rice they have the North practically sealed up.

New York Giants (7-4)

Looks like things were clicking for everyone against the Pack.  Losing Andre Brown could hurt them later on though if Bradshaw can’t stay healthy.

Minnesota fell apart early and Jay Cutler just makes this team solid.  Defense is top tier.

Green Bay Packers (7-4)

Defense is always a question, but the offense going cold is a bad sign. better turn that around quickly.

They can win at home, but on the road is still a question mark.  If they aren’t careful they might be in a tiebreaker situation for a playoff spot.

Seattle Seahawks (6-5)

They are just awful on the road and now guys are being suspended all over the defense for PEDs.

Tampa Bay Bucs (6-5)

They almost pushed that winning streak up one more notch.  Playing solid and have  a good shot at the playoffs.  Vincent Jackson was a great pickup.

Pittsburgh Steelers (6-5)

They are in some serious trouble.  Playoffs are a big if right now.

Washington Redskins (5-6)

RGIII was nearly perfect – again!  Guy is just playing lights out.  Gets chance number 2 against the Giants on MNF.

Minnesota Vikings (6-5)

Promising start is long forgotten now.

Dallas Cowboys (5-6)

Only a  miracle will keep a lot of heads from rolling.  Don’t see that happening.

New York Jets (4-7)

When your most known fan quits it is a bad sign.  Favorable schedule over the last 5 could keep them in the discussion a few more weeks.

Tennessee Titans (4-7)

Chance to get 1 back in the playoff race and you lose to the jags?

Looks like 13 years in a row for no playoffs and another coaching staff for next season.

San Diego Chargers (4-7)

Ray Rice makes a miracle play…Norv Turner should clean out his office now.

They beat the hell out of the Cardinals and Lindley.  31 points…they shoul denjoy that before going back to their 15 point average.

Detroit Lions (4-7)

They play tough (dirty at times), but just can’t close out games.  They can play spoiler to some teams the rest of the way.

Arizona Cardinals (4-7)

Remember when they were going to challenge in the West?  Yeah that was a long time ago.

They generate 8 turnovers against a depleted Steeler team which is great, but struggling to win with 8 turnovers isn’t.  Nice win for the folks in Cleveland.

Chad Henne has been reborn!  Cecil Shorts, Justin Blackmon, and Mercedes Lewis are suddenly fantasy darlings.

They beat the hell out of the Eagles and Cam Newton looked like Cam Newton.

Oakland Raiders (3-8)

This has to be the most disappointing team in the league – right there with the Eagles.

hey they still have a cool looking jumbotron over the endzone.
